Hi,

I'm a redflagdeals user that signed up for free webhosting.

I was hoping someone would help me out. I have been trying to install wordpress and when I get to the point where I am supposed to direct my browser to the install.php file that is in my wp-admin folder I get the error message 'PHP is not running'.

Is php not enabled on our free accounts?

Thanks in advance!
 
Hello,

Directadmin is a control panel to help managing hosting accounts and related things, but it does not sell hosting, and does not give free hosting accounts either. So you should contact your hosting company from which you've got a free account.

Thank you for the reply. I was told by my hosting company to get support from this forum.
 
Nobody here would ever help you if your hosting company disabled PHP support for your account. So if they do tell you to get support here, if I were at your place I would find another hosting company. Of course if you did not disable PHP support exactly for one domain of yours.

User Level -> Select domain (if you've got more than one) -> Domain Setup -> Click on the domain -> Make sure you've checked "PHP Access"

Thank you, PHP is enabled. Still does not work for me. I just paid for hosting from my domain provider. Prefer to have live support.

You get what you pay for.

Very true which is why I paid for hosting now.
 
Make a file in your public_html folder with this only in it. Once you can see the php info page you will know its working. Name it like test.php and then go to the url to view it.

Code:
<?php phpinfo(); ?>

If my web folder is /home/bob/domains/example.com/public_html

I would upload a file called test.php to this folder and then view it at http://example.com/test.php

If you still see nothing then you should check your apache logs in directadmin or contact your hosting provider for help.
