Server Requirements

EZGenerator created sites will work on any web server.

PHP Requirements

You need minimum PHP 4.3 installed on server, if you use any of the PHP pages and features (as Blog, Podcast, Photoblog, Calendar, Newsletter, Guestbook, Tell a friend, Request, Shop, Search, Counter, RSS Parser and Online Administration panel ).

MySQL Requirements

You also need minimum MySQL 4.1, if you have switched project to MySQL and use any of the PHP driven pages and features.

File Permissions Requirements

If you don't use MySQL, but use any of the PHP driven pages and features, database information will be stored in flat files (with .ezg.php extension ) on server in folder ezg_data/ and you need to make sure the folder is write enabled.

If you get permissions error when you test any of the PHP pages and features, check Files and folder permissions requirements or contact administrators at our Support Forum to help you with this.

Mail Requirements

Some PHP pages and features use mailing, so make sure your server mailing option is properly set.

If you notice mail function does not work properly on your server, follow these steps:

• Check with your host provider which method you have to use for sending emails (MAIL or SMTP).
• If MAIL is used, ask him if mail settings are properly set in php.ini and if you need to set any additional settings as Sendmail From and Return Path. If yes, simply go to Project Settings >> PHP settings and set administrator email address in Return Path, Sendmail From or in both.
• If SMTP is used, ask him what are the SMTP settings and then go to Project Settings >> PHP settings, check Use SMTP to send PHP mail and fill the SMTP settings.

Sessions Requirements

If you notice any problems when logging, contact provider and ask him if sessions are well configured.

If he provides you Session Save Path and asks you to set this by yourself, go to Project Settings >> PHP settings and set Session Save Path.
