Installing PRADO Framework on GoDaddy Shared Hosting

I found this blog post helpful while installing PRADO on my GoDaddy Linux hosting account.

Basically in GoDaddy when enabling PHP5 you can specify what extension to use to run PHP scripts with PHP5 or PHP4. If I recall correctly by default, you would need to have index.php5 to run php scripts using PHP5.

Hopefully PRADO will work in my GoDaddy hosting account.

I was able to successfully install PRADO on my GoDaddy Linux hosting account. I had to rename the extensions to php5 to get the scripts to work. Hopefully adding an .htaccess file will allow .php to be run with PHP5. I have to wait an hour before the .htaccess cache will be reset.

The following are useful links in the GoDaddy Help Center:

Can I run both PHP 4 and PHP 5 applications on my hosting account?

How do I use htaccess to manage my PHP file extensions?

Do you disable any PHP functions on your Linux hosting accounts?

How do I manage Hosting Configuration 2.0?
