Im using Go Daddy Hosting ... Please Help

You will need to send this to GoDaddy they need to edit your PHP.ini file.

I recently installed Prestashop on a GoDaddy acount and found issues with their hosting.

Had lots of issues with Friendly URL's so I just disabled it and moved on.

You can try this its a php5.ini file created for the GoDaddy account I created but you may have other issues.

Simply upload this to the root folder. (rename to php5.ini can not upload .ini files)

Hello Hugol, there has been some issues concerning godaddy and server configuration, especially with friendly URL's, as tdr170 mentioned. It may be a good idea to look for other more compatible servers.

Hi, This is somit using prestashop v1.5.6 English version. and my website is http://www.slmobileprice.com

 

I am trying to configure Performance - Ciphering option but getting error -  The PHP "Mcrypt" extension is not activated on this server.

 

Could you please tell me how to enable Rijndael with mcrypt lib.

 

Mcrypt is faster than our custom BlowFish class, but requires the PHP extension "mcrypt". If you change this configuration, all cookies will be reset.

Algorithm

 Use Rijndael with mcrypt lib. 
 Keep the custom BlowFish class.

Did you tried to update your prestashop?

 

Latest versions comes with better peformance options

[somits1]

sorry but i can not update prestashop. As i don't know about php and backup and restore.

 

And my site is working fine before 4-5 days. But i have changed this option to blowfish from Performance. and now i can not change its giving me error mcrypt not installed.  

 

my site is working too slow so please tell me how to improve site. Please check my site http://slmobileprice.com

You should ask your server administrator to install mcrypt for your php.

Godaddy refusing to install mrcypt from their side. could you please tell how can i install direnctly from my side.

 

Thanks for your reply.

[Simonas Invertus]

Short answer is - NO.

 

Long answer is...

You need to have administrator rights to configure php.ini file which I am guessing you can not do. 

If you do, then the answer depends on your server OS. In that case enter google '[your server OS] mcrypt php' and you will find solution that works.
