Hi,

My current Web Host does not support most of the requirements for running ee 1.5, so can anyone suggest any reliable (But Cheap!!) hosts

Thanks

Alan

I'm running EE 1.5 right now here:

PHP is compiled with GD2, EXIF/IPTC & FTP support, and ImageMagick is installed.

If you may run Imagemagick from safe mode exec dir then safe mode can be on.

With inbuit GD2 which comes with recent PHP's, or with Imagick Imagemagick wrapper (Pear) safe mode can be on.

Thanks for the info - cheap too!! You said that ImageMagick is installed but when I run Servinfo it shows as not installed - any suggestions

Cheers

You need to set the mogrify path on the server info page. The path that worked for me was: /usr/local/bin/mogrify
