CS New Media - Server Status

We are currently experiencing some internal network issues that are being investigated by onsite technician on our Linux Network, please accept our apologies for the loss of service during this time.

PHP4 > PHP5 Upgrade

As from 31 December 2007, support from PHP.net for version 4 of PHP will cease. We will be upgrading all our PHP4 installs across all our servers on our Linux Network to PHP5.

Popular scripts used today (Wordpress, Joomla, Oscommerce, etc) have all been updated to work with PHP5. We recommend all customers ensure they have the latest versions of scripts installed.

If you have any custom scripts we recommend you ensure these scripts will work with PHP5 before the upgrade so code can be updated to ensure it does work. PHP5 can be enabled onto your domain before the upgrade to allow customers to test their code.

We will conduct these upgrades starting Saturday 27th January 2008. There will be no downtime associated with these upgrades.
