MySQL and PHP Updates

October 13th, 2005

We would like to announce that on Monday, October 17, 2005 between 8AM and 10AM GMT (3AM and 5AM EST), the MySQL and PHP will be updated on all servers from our network. The MySQL server will be upgraded from version 4.0 to version 4.1. In addition to the MySQL upgrade, support for PHP version 5 will also be added to our servers. Support for both PHP 4.4 and PHP 5 will be available on our servers simultaneously. Customers who wish to use PHP version 5 need to create their PHP files using the extension “.php5”. The purpose of the updates is to improve server security and stability, and offer a larger choice of options to the web hosting customers.

Short interruptions in the availability of our services are possible during the update period. Thank you for your patience and understanding.
