To confirm are you using 1.6?

Also, I don't suppose your host runs Windows do they?

Yes sir, 1.6 Just upgraded yesterday.

yes I think.

What is your host?

Ix web why?

Which plan?

is there a point to this?

Yes, if you have the "Expert" plan, that's Linux-based. If you have either of the other 2, it's Windows-based.

I have bis plus. and its linux

Ok. I must have misread the hosting plans page.

Before I give any advice, I would like to consult with the dev team.

Would the string need to be casted to a long?
