One wrinkle to add to this; my site runs on a shared server which means I have no direct control over php.ini. I want to be able to tweak the settings available in php.ini, but this means I have to jump through a few hoops on the server to use a custom php.ini file.
Specifically, I have to add these lines to .htaccess in the webroot:
The problem is that adding the two lines to .htaccess causes the rewrite rules to enter an infinite loop. The support people at my hosting center believe that nothing can be done about this; if I want to use a custom php.ini file, the rewrite rules won't work. If I want the rewrite rules to work, I don't get the custom php.ini file.
It's almost like this Thread was meant for someone in my situation. How familiar does all of this sound to me. The only difference is is that my webhost does not support .htaccess files. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this problem?
One of the other problems is is that not only am I having a problem with .htaccess support, but also too is that the Version of ezPublish that I am using is 3.10 (PHP 4.4 rquired) and the host provides only 4.3.11 support, this is also one of the error messages that I am getting at the Finetune in the Wizard.
Also, after completion of the Wizard I go back to root and/or index.php (path either/or to ezPublish) and I end up back to the first page of the Setup Wizard. It's deffinately not magic. Any suggestions?
Any help that may be provided, would be very highly appreciated.
Long time ago, I did manage to have it run without mod rewrite.
Basically, the idea was to have a custom 404 php file, that would call the index.php
Did work, but that's a hack and you'll be on your own for that one as no one has such a config. Beside if you don't have access to your .htaccess, it probably means you don't have enough power/cpu/memory to make ez runs properly.
But, memory is not the issue 5000 MB. According to Tech Support at my webhost. 1. Is apparently there is no support for the .htaccess due to that the Server is already configured to run such a file as global and I was told that if I were to upload such a file that it would change the global setting of the one that is already on the server and change the settings for others that have a Webhosting Account.
Either that is true, or they are just pulling my leg?
And 2. Is that for some reason a dot file is not a valid file name that is allowed, I have no idea why. Strange, huh?
Would you be able to tell me if it is possible to upload ezpublish to a webhosting account and possibly give me a quick run-down on how to do it without having any errors such as the one of php version is invalid value. Running 4.3.11 and 4.4 minimum is needed. And something to do with a CGI issue.
Thank you for any help that you may be able to provide.
