Bob, You wouldn't be able to do this with a shared hosting account, but could do this with a dedicated server. Another option is using your home system to stream into SecondLife, and I've known some people who have done that. You can download a shoutcast server to stream the music. It may be a bit tricky (or iffy performance) if you have a dynamic IP address from your provider.

drtravix, Try sending it now. Looks like there was an update that was trapping mail and this should be fixed. I also posted back in your ticket.

Retrieving the data will depend on how your form works. If the form posts to a file on the server, you should be able to view that document on the server or download it. If the form is e-mail based, you should receive an e-mail with the contents. Many FrontPage forms post to a file "_private/form_results.txt" so you'll need to download that file using FTP or copy it using FrontPage.

Another thing you will need to check is that your newsletters are within the sending limits of the server. We do not post this information publicly to prevent spammers from trying to circumvent protections. If you open a ticket with the help desk, we can answer this question. Since you are using SMF to send your newsletter, you may want to look into a module or add-on which will throttle your e-mail sending. Many hosts now restrict the number of e-mails that can be sent in a specified time period. This is to keep server loads down and prevent spam.

First, I would recommend the Dell as they have a good warranty and I have never been impressed with Gateway. With the money you have on hand to spend, you'd be better off going with newer technology which will last you. Here's my picks after looking over the Dell XPS System. Since Dual Core is pretty much standard you can go with the faster model with 8MB L2 Cache. It looks like they're offering overclocked processors now, but I can't comment on that as I tend to run my processors as-is. With Photoshop and Corel you'd be best selecting 4GB of Ram. The more the better when running graphics programs. For harddrives, your space needs will really dictate what you choose. Go with a Raid1 configuration if you can, as this will allow for a single drive failure without putting a halt to your work. The selections for Raid1 appear to be 320GB, 750GB and 1TB. I would highly recommend Dell's 3-Year warranty, and the on-site version if you don't want to ship things back. They'll come out to fix it within 24 hours with that option.

Merry Christmas to all and a Happy New Year!

Greetings TCH Family, We have been informed that there will be maintenance performed on two DWDM ring nodes which provide our facility with Level(3) transit. The maintenance window is set to begin at 2:00AM EST December 22nd and ending 3:00AM EST December 22nd. There will be a brief interruption in reachability to Level(3) connected networks during this window. The interruption is not expected to last more than 30 seconds while our system reroutes this traffic and only traffic destined to or originating from Level(3) connected networks will be affected. For a period of approximately 30 minutes Level(3) connected networks will be routed through our two other peers, XO and Cogent. The maintenance being performed is meant to improve reliability of traffic on this circuit.

John, Does the admin section work through a normal browser? From what I've seen the error is related to mod_security, but I'm unsure what Windows Mobile may be doing differently to trip this feature of apache.

With some newer environments, MT seems to become confused in finding it's own location. The following error is quite common: >Got an error: Error opening file '/mt-config.cgi': No such file or directory This issue seems to crop up due to the way that MT tries to configure it's path. A one stop fix for this is to hardcode the path so that MT know how to find it's configuration files. This fix will ensure that all functions continue to work afterwards Edit lib/MT/Bootstrap.pm. The first section is where we will add the fix: >sub BEGIN { my ($dir, $orig_dir); require File::Spec; if (!($dir = $ENV{MT_HOME})) { after the "sub BEGIN" statement, insert the hard coded path: >sub BEGIN { $ENV{'MT_HOME'} = '/home/<username>/public_html/mt'; <-- this line should be added my ($dir, $orig_dir); require File::Spec; if (!($dir = $ENV{MT_HOME})) { You may have to adjust the previous line if your MT path resides elsewhere, such as /home/<username>/public_html/cgi-bin/mt. If you're uncomfortable editing this file or would like some assistance, please open a ticket with the help desk and we'll be happy to help.

Greetings TCH Family, We have been evaluating the roll out of Apache 2.2 on TotalChoice servers. At the present time, we do not have a roll out date as we are still finishing up testing with various software and php modules. Apache2 will provide TCH customers benefits in performance and security while still providing the reliability that everyone expects from Apache 1. Along with Apache2, we will be enabling new features such as MySQL PDO and SOAP that have been the most requested features thus far. During the rollout we will also be updating servers to the latest PHP5 revision which is mainly a security release. As we finish up testing I wanted to solicit feedback from any customers looking to utilize features specific to the latest version of Apache2 or the new modules. Good, bad or indifferent to Apache2 I'd like to hear your opinion.

Benjamin, If you can open a ticket with the help desk, I'll take a look at the issue. It sounds as though the script isn't setup to handle the translation from XSLT to XSL.

Yes, I can certainly help with any issues you might be having. If you can respond to the earlier ticket, I'll take a look at your account specifics and work with you towards a solution. When you respond, just note that it should be brought to my attention.

Your best bet in this situation is to have the new domain set as your main domain. This makes it so that your account is fully setup with this domain for all intents and purposes. For the remaining portion, you would park the old domain on top of the new one. A subdomain can still be created so that your old setup works. Now in order for your old domain links to work, you would need to setup an htaccess rule to rewrite the old domain to the new domain, with the page included. This should allow visitors to your site to still visit old links but the URL can be rewritten so they know the new domain is in use. If you need help with this, I'll be happy to give you a hand in setting it up.

ASP is processed server side and will not be shown unless the server doesn't understand what to do with it. The same thing happens with PHP when processed server side.

You can view all of the dedicated server upgrade options here: http://totalchoicehosting.com/web-hosting-...ted-addons.html

Without knowing your domain or account info, I can't say 100%. There are limits to how many times one IP address can login, so you may have hit this barrier. If you open a ticket with the help desk, we can look into this for you.

In PHP5, URL based includes are disabled. This helps avoid any remote URL injections. Another option for include is to use the system path to the file: >include_once($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']."counter.php?ip=$ip&url={$_SERVER[PHP_SELF]}")

Greetings TCH Family, This afternoon we experienced a short blip in the network which lasted about 5 minutes. This blip was caused by a delay in our failover system. There were some residual issues for a short time afterwards between our servers and our name lookup servers which exist on separate networks in the same facility. This may have caused a bit of lag as this was being fixed. All servers are back online and operating at full capacity. If you experience any issues with your account, please open a ticket with the help desk.

If you're still having issues that cannot be resolved quickly, we do have a PHP4 server available. This would allow you to prepare for PHP5 without taking down your site features.

Since the tutorial you've linked to refers to IIS, I'll assume that's what you're running. You should be able to download the zip package for the latest PHP5 version and extract it to a separate folder. Once you do this, you can change the Application/Extension Mapping to use the PHP5 version. It also appears you may be able to make a copy of the site and change the copy to use the PHP5 executable. This may help in transitioning to the new version while not breaking the old one. With MySQL 4 & 5, I've never tried running them side by side. I'd be interested in knowing how myself if anyone has gotten both to run concurrently.

Just a quick note on the version issue. cPanel caches the version information for PHP and MySQL in the users' home directory. Unfortunately it does not seem to be picking up the new version of MySQL even though it has been installed. We're working on clearing the cache files across the servers so that this is no longer an issue.

We will miss you Don. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family.

With the transition to PHP5, XSLT support has been discontinued in favor of XSL. While they achieve the same result, many people using XSLT specific functions in their code are experiencing breakdowns. In researching this issue, I have found an excellent work around that is quite literally a drop-in fix: http://alexandre.alapetite.net/doc-alex/xs...5/index.en.html You simply need to upload a copy of xslt-php4-to-php5.php and add a single line to your XSLT code page: >if (version_compare(PHP_VERSION,'5','>=')&&extension_loaded('xsl')) require_once('xslt-php4-to-php5.php'); If anyone has any trouble with the transition or setting this up, please open a ticket with the help desk.
