yeah 1) tell your host that his server is set up STRANNGEEE.. AND you NEED ability to set directories to 777 2) If he wont change it so that you can set directories to 777 without getting a 500 error I would probably look for another host... 3) when I upload 1.7 you won't be able to use it at all because it needs to write to several tables at once hence the following will only work for this version
yeah thats a CS server right? That they have the game and the forums on the same server? That might be why they are anal about security. Yeah on my current server I can get shell if I want but I rarely find the need to do it since it has a front end.. It uses CPANEL.. does that server your on have a customer panel like ENSIM? PLESK? CPANEL? WEBMIN?
