Yesterday, I enabled (old-fashioned) CGI on the assumption that my script would be able to access my webspace files via a common file system, which I can see now isn't the case.
Quote from: spraxyt The new PAYH server has cgi-bin and httpdocs folders on the same webspace which seems to meet the requirement you describe. Why not sign up for a preview account at http://trials.plus.net and give it a try?

I've now signed up to trial PAYH, but it's a pity that I'll have to have a different domain name, and re-upload all my content, all for 12 lines of Perl!

Sorry - ignore this post, the figures I'm referring to are actual traffic not data limits, I had misunderstood the figures.

Sorry if I have come into this a bit late and I will admit to only reading a few pages but may I comment. Perhaps I should first add that I am greatful that Plus Net are looking at this subject. I have a website that takes all of my 250mb webspace allowance and about a year ago I had to buy extra space and went to Streamline who I felt offered good value. It seems to me that £2.50 a month for an extra 100mb of space is not very good value compared to what you can buy elsewhere in the market. For that amount extra a month I would expect a minimum of 500mb (total) space. Unlike others web traffic is not really a problem but space is. I suggested some time ago that Plus Net allow extra space at an extra monthly premium, so a step in the right direction but to me the amount of extra space needs to be review. If Business account can have a total of 750mb for £5 a month why not Residential?

I know it has been said that this is related to security issues, but I currently use a paid-for hosting prover to host one of my sites and there seems to be no issue with them having safe mode off, shell access etc.
The site I was proposing to trial on the PAYH server uses software that will not run in safe mode and therefore I'm a little disappointed that it seems an 'easy option' to enable safe mode and then suffer the reduction in functionality.

The main question for me would be: are symlinks then enabled on the new platform?

Having only just started developing the site I am hosting on PlusNet in the lastmonth, I am keen to keep up to date with all the developments re the CGI space changes.
If I was to sign up for a 'preview account' would that account then be the one that goes live, or would I then have to setup a new account once everything has changed over?

The system seems to be a bit of a shambles at the moment, but as I understand it, the trial has ended and the free residential PAYH category no longer exists.
