Greetings tjnemez - Thank you for your participation.

I will write an email to my hosting company pointing out that these items are configuration items and that it will take their participation to solve them.

Regards,

Since you are running PHP in CGI mode, the php settings in .htaccess will be ignored, even you are not getting any error messsages.

You may want to check with your web host and ask for how to customize your own php.ini. You should be able to copy a server php.ini file to your cgi-bin directory where your php binary resides.

Once you have copied the file, then you would need to edit the file to secure your PHP. Good luck.

Greetings tl - Thank You for your response.

I had a PHP.INI with just the flags I needed to turn off and I uploaded to public_html\cgi-bin as you sugested. This had no effect.

I appreciate your efforts. If you have any additional sugestions please do not hesitate to make them.

As suggested, you will have to contact with your host on what they allow and disallow. They may not allow you to use your own php.ini even they are running PHP-CGI. It is web host specific issue and you need to get answers from your host.

phpinfo() shows you which php.ini file is being used, as well as all the settings.
