Enabling ASP, ASP.NET, PHP, and/or Perl/CGI-BIN
Your web hosting account and website has the ability to use many scripting languages like Classic ASP, ASP.NET 1.1, ASP.NET 2.0/3.0/3.5, PHP, and PERL/CGI. By default your site is only enabled with ASP. You will need to enable or disable these laguages as needed. For security reasons we suggest disabling scripting languages that are not needed. It is possible to use more than one scripting languae per website though.

Instructions:
  1. Login to your Control Panel.
  2. Click Domains and Select a domain.
  3. Click Website Settings icon.
  4. Check/uncheck and select the appropriate scripting languages. *
  5. Click save.
Please Note: You can remove/uninstall settings by unchecking the relevant boxes, then clicking "Save".

* If you enable Classic ASP, we suggest you also check the box above to enable Parent Paths as it may be needed for legacy appplications.

IMPORTANT NOTE #1: To use ASP.NET 3.0 or ASP.NET 3.5, you must select ASP.NET Version 2 from the Web Site Settings page in your control panel.  This is because ASP.NET 3.0 and ASP.NET 3.5, are just "additive" libraries and still use the .NET 2.0 runtime.

IMPORTANT NOTE #2: ASP.NET users should note that we operate in a Medium Trust environment which means your scripts may not work correctly if they attempt to use some of the more advanced features for these languages. This is for security reasons and for everyone's benefit. Please attempt to work within Medium Trust by consulting your .NET documentation for solutions. There are very few applications that truely require a higher level of trust than medium. This will keep your application cleaner and portable. We will enable a higher level of trust, as needed, on a case-by-case basis.
