Often dedicated or shared servers are activated for PHP 4 but not PHP 5.
To install PrestaShop, PHP 5 must be activated.
The following is a list of procedures of which we are aware:
1&1;
Create an .htaccess file and add this line:
AddType x-mapp-php5 .php
Otherwise, you can try renaming the PHP files to be executed in PHP 5 by changing the extention to ".php".
For URL re-writing, add these lines:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
Free :
Create an .htaccess file and add this line:
php 1
OVH :
Create an .htaccess file and add this line:
SetEnv PHP_VER 5
To deactivate global registers:
SetEnv REGISTER_GLOBALS 0
Warning: Dot not use CHMOD 777, OVH only allow CHMOD 755
