PHP5 Web Hosting

PHP5 web hosting - now available!
GlowHost is proud to announce PHP5 web hosting is now available and is the default version of PHP on all shared and reseller web servers. All new VPS and Dedicated servers will also come with PHP5 pre-installed. This means our shared hosting customers and resellers can offer PHP5 web hosting to their customers at no additional charge. We offer PHP 5.2 or higher.

PHP4 web hosting - Support Discontinued
We still offer PHP4 web hosting services, and PHP4 is installed on all shared and reseller web servers as a secondary PHP. We will continue support for PHP4 as long as it remains stable, and security patches remain available. Support for PHP4 will be completely removed in early August 2008. Our configuration allows for both PHP4 and PHP5 to run side by side in the same user account. Simply call the PHP4 or PHP5 environment based on the file extension used, or add a handler for it so that you can run either using the .php extension. See how this is accomplished in our support forums.

MySQL5 web hosting - now available!
GlowHost is proud to announce MySQL5 web hosting is now available on all servers. If you need MySQL 4.1 web hosting we still have this available on our Dedicated servers and VPS servers also have this functionality for the time being, however we recommend updating to MySQL5 as soon as possible as it typically a seamless update.
