  1. Hi all, Is it possible to use PHP pages as error handlers (e.g. 404, 500 etc) instead of the default SHTML pages? The rest of my site uses PHP, so this would make life a bit easier. Thanks in advance, Cal McLean
  2. Hi there - HH Username: rt60 Server: stevie Primary domain: rt60calculator.heliohost.org Guess I must've forgotten to log in once a month! Thanks, Cal McLean.
  3. Does a falling tree make a sound if no one hears it? Of course it does. The sound is still made because the air particles still reverberate. Same concept applies. A falling tree has a physical (thus quantifiable?) effect on it's surroundings. What physical, demonstrable effect does a god have?
  4. Hey there, Just presenting another opinion. I am of the scientific stance, but I'd like to think that these are valid points, or at least, fodder for discussion... I know I'm making a small and arbitrary point, but there is a difference between 'quantifiable' and 'limited'. Just because something can be counted does not mean there is only a certain amount to count. As I say, not an important point. The concept (for want of a better word) of God or any god/deity/supreme power/etc is only a function of faith, or belief in said god. Faith is very difficult to quantify, as it does not provide anything other than a feeling of wellbeing, companionship or guidance and is almost entirely self-sustaining. Most people have a faith in a situation where answers are not readily available, and this faith can (often vaguely, but almost always satisfyingly) explain or give reason to the nature of a given circumstance. At least, this is the modern faith, where science and religion are often at loggerheads. As a result, the above argument is constantly wheeled out and whored to suit anybody's narrow scientific view. This is wrong - the foundation of the scientific method is to observe with an open mind, without prejudice or predilection (I should point out that I am of the scientific stance, but am outlining this anyway). There have been a few posts both ways, regarding the ubiquitous 'impossible infinite chain' argument, in an effort to both prove and disprove the existence of a god and of the big bang. Unfortunately, it is not conclusive in either case: if this first instant - for whichever reason - initiated the universe, then by definition it also marks the beginning of time, which is a finite and impassable boundary. At least, with our technology and wisdom. This leads to another point. If we do, somehow, cross the threshold of time, will the findings make a difference? Even if we found out the cause of the birth of the universe, how do we understand whether or not it was determined by a Creator? All we would find is the actual physical incident. Let me clarify with a simple analogy: if we stamp on an anthill, the ants know that the anthill was flattened by a large object coming from above, the impact of which caused it's collapse. They will not understand that we meant to do it, only that it happened. A parting shot - if a god is a function of belief, does the god still 'exist' if nobody believes? TL;DR -> Does it really matter? An interesting thought? The RT60 Calculator Guy.
  5. Yes, even though the redirect to my home address has been set up. The email doesn't even get recieved, it just bounces back - the DNS lookup still fails.
  6. The email has been automatically resent after it failed the first time. It didn't get redirected - it didn't even get received by the mail server. DNS timeout error this time.
  7. Yes, it was set to redirect to the same address (admin@rt60...etc), but it is now redirecting to my home address. Still, why does this happen in the first place?
  8. Hi there, I have set up an email address for my website: admin@rt60calculator.heliohost.org. I can successfully send emails from this account to other accounts - this goes without a hitch. However, I encounter an issue when I send an email to this account - it is seemingly sent successfully, but it never arrives at the admin account, nor is it registered on the Webmail cPanel application. What's gone wrong? Thanks, RT60 Calculator Guy. EDIT: The email I tried to send has bounced (hours later), stating that the DNS lookup failed. However, my website was online and operational at the time. Still, why should this happen?
  9. It does, in fact, work as it should. Thanks for your advice =)
  10. Hi there, Is it possible to execute Python files in a subdirectory of the cgi-bin folder in the same way as it will execute in the actual cgi-bin folder? For example: let's say I have the following Python file: /public_html/cgi-bin/my_page.py This page has been 755'ed, outputs a content header and displays a webpage as it should. However, would it work if placed in a subdirectory of cgi-bin, like this: /public_html/cgi-bin/my_subdir/my_page.py (assuming that it was the same file, i.e. has the correct permissions, etc). According to some brief searching, this is an option that can only be enabled within Apache - I'm just wondering if it has been. Thanks, RT60 Calculator Guy.
