PHP Framework ( CodeIgniter ) Projects vs LAMP

Dear All,

Is there any special method to host CodeIgniter projects or framework independent method to host PHP projects in a Linux Server?

Earlier after having a problem with hosting a PHP project in a Fedora web-server, I edited Line 88 in Router.conf in CodeIgniter project and remove the

Quote:

strtolower

phrase then the project worked. But now when handling sessions it gives some errors.

Quote:

$this->default_controller = ( ! isset($this->routes['default_controller']) OR $this->routes['default_controller'] == '') ? FALSE : strtolower($this->routes['default_controller']);

My developers says this is due to session brakes when it comes to Linux hosting :( they run the code in windows PCs :( where this problem doesn't appear

Thanks

My work web server is running PHP with code igniter framework and LAMP. RHEL 5.

I am the sysadmin on the box and periodically I have to bring in a PHP consultant make enhancements but your devs are dead wrong.

I have had issue with code igniter and I am moving away from PHP for other reasons. but the faults are most liking with code igniter not linux.

It looks like code igniter expects file names to be lower case. This wouldn't matter on Windows which has a more limited file system. Insist your developers fix it and deliver a working product or get some better developers.

Dear Elija,

Thanks for the reply! Our developers use windows workstations to develop CodeIgniter projects and hosting is done on a Fedora server. We are now in a situation where to find a best Linux distribution for web hosting and if it is framework independent that's better.

Could I know a web resource to get more information how to prepare a LAMP server for hosting? Your early reply is greatly appreciated!

Thanks

I host my site on HostGator and have always found them reliable. I would recommend them but also suggest you do your own research. They use CentOS.
