Hi folks,

I'm interested in using activeCollab but alas, my current host only supports up to php 4.5.x; I'm checking around any other hosting solutions to see if they have 5, but so far the other 2 I've looked into are still around the 4 to 4.5.x versions of php.

I don't know if you can go backwards compatible with this - can you have support for older versions of PHP? or can someone recommend a good host that support 5 in the mean time?

(and yes, this isn't a feature request per se - not in the traditional sense, but work with me here) :)

thanks!

In my personal experience, you couldn't really go wrong with one of these: DreamHost or TextDrive (in no particular order other than alphabetical).

I don't know if Media Temple offers PHP5, but I wouldn't be surprised if they do. Ask beforehand. And, slightly less pricey, Digital Space used to have a pretty good support service: ask them about PHP5 too.

Edited out the promo code: if you save some money from hosting, consider making a donation to Ilija!

aC is native PHP5 application, not PHP4 app ported to work with PHP5. It was made using PHP5 features from the day one.

Recommended hosts? Dreamhost and TextDrive (no promo code here)

thanks all - looks like I'll either switch hosts or find a friend with some space to spare ;)

Really looking forward to trying aC out :D

For a php5 hoster, check out Dreamhost or WestHost. Both are solid companies with good customer support.

If you want to check out activeCollab and haven't got the capabilities on your current host go here:

www.blogsen.com

...and you can set up your own activeCollab installation.

Note, if you use 1and1, you can force the application to use PHP5 but simply creating an .htaccess file in the activecollab directory with the following line:

AddType x-mapp-php5 .php

Works great on 1and1 (and on dreamhost) - I use both!
