"Got a client I'm building a large site for, now the problem I have is they are registered with various domains from failed attempts in the past to get themselves a website and want to use only these hosting companies that they've been paying for. The only one that is closest to being able to host will doe everything on their linux hositing side except

"The Linux hosting platform can provide most of the stated requirements but the following protocol cannot be provided due to the server being a shared server platform

'PHP should have safe_mode set to off or safe_mode_gid set to on in the php.ini' ""

What Sitegrinder-Support answers:

"The safe mode is an important one, you'll need to set safe_mode to off or safe_mode_gid to on in the php.ini file otherwise, you'll find that the CMS won't work. You'll need to contact the host to fix those items.

If not, you'll have to convince them to use static pages instead of the remote CMS."
