Oxwall and PHP?

[leetmunkyking54]

I really like how Oxwall is made and it's very small but supposedly the server doesn't have the required version. So I was wondering could I update the php myself somehow (cuz I'm a nub) and diddle with it that way or is it impossible because of the server just not being my server. I would like to figure this all out piece by piece and finalize figuring out what I'm trying to use.

I was playing around with BoonEx and from what I was reading while figuring it out and it seemed pretty cool. but I installed some modules and it started being quite goofy. From what I was reading it's really bloated and needs to be rethought as something easy for users of your site to use.

I ripped the requirements for Oxwall from the http://www.oxwall.org/hosting website and I was also wondering if this would be the best host to try and do this on. I mean I could figure all this out with help from friends and such but I'm trying to see the hurdles before I get there that way I can plan ahead

PHP updated to 5.3.6 with 60 new bugfixes

If you plan to host your site elsewhere make sure your host meets the following hosting requirements:

Linux/Unix/Windows
Apache 2 or higher (with mod_rewrite module)
PHP 5.2.6 or higher with:
register_globals off
safe_mode off
suPHP off
suApache off
suhosin off
PHP modules:
PDO
DOM
mbstring
zip
zlib
ftp
json
MySQL 5.0 or higher
GD Library 2 with FreeType support
Mail server (SendMail, Exim or other)
Cron

Hello,
Unfortunately, php cannot be managed on a user-by-user basis.
I've just checked the version on your server, and it should meet those requirements.
I'd happily have a go at doing the install for you. If you're interested, let me know.

That would be very nice but I did install it with Softaculous and it gave an error page and said that there wasn't even that .php page on the admin or actual site page. Not being used to this coding stuff I really have no clue where to look. I did find some tutorial sites on how to dos but I mostly want to get on it and see what I can do with it and how useful it would be to my needs. I'd assume that putting some adbrite or adsense up would not be that much pain in the ass.

I definitely believe I will upgrade probably next month http://x10premium.com/ but in the dude time I have no spare chips to throw you guys but I will definitely have to. (good deal and why not more help is always appreciated)

If it is not too much trouble, I don't really want anyone here to go out of there way for some nub. (To tell you the truth I was half expecting something like "go do it yourself or find some forums and go there, kinda like don't pester me".

If you don't mind I'll slap up the .com and switch it for the sub domain and I'll log back in tomorrow. Like I said if you could install Oxwall that would be dope and then I could take it from there and fiddle about. Thanks for being so knowledgeable

Hello,

I'm sending you an email to the address linked to your account. I'll explain more there.

To be honest, I've never liked softaculous. I like to know exactly what's going on.

I havn't really used a free host in quite a while but it just seemed like the right way to go (softaculous I mean) just browsing cpanel interface. I was trying to do a porn web site about 3 years ago called moarpronnao.com but I had no clue what to initially do with it ad had some gf issues that had dragged me down. But this site will have entirely nothing to do with explicit material at all. I am just a nub that's all... lol

I do know what I want and it is what it is... not bloated
