Expression Web 4 and Server Requirements

The website I created and maintain is written in Microsoft FrontPage 2003. I have rewritten the website in Expression Web 4. I contacted the website provider and informed them of what I had done and asked if I would create any problems if I uploaded various pages to see what if any changes I would have to make to the pages. I was informed to contact the developer of Expression Web 4 to see if the servers versions of PHP, MYSQL and Apache were compatible. Since Expression Web 4 is no longer supported by Microsoft I have not tried to contact them.

My website providers server versions are as follows: 1) PHP 5.2.9 (cli) (built: Aug 8, 2013) Copyright 1997-2009 Zend Technologies with the ionCube PHP Loader v4.4.1, Copyright 2002-2013, by ionCube Ltd., and with Zend Optimizer v3.3.9, Copyright 1998-2009 by Zend Technologies. 2) MYSQL Ver 14.14 Distrib 5.5.32, for Linus (x86-64) using readline 5.1. 3) Apache, Server version: Apache/2.0/64 Server built: Aug 8, 2013 Cpanel::Ease::Apache v3.22.4 rev9999.

I have absolutely no idea what they are talking about. Can anyone decypher this and tell me if Expression Web 4 is compatible with my providers server.

I wish I were more knowledgeable so that I might make this gibberish clearer. As always I will appreciate all replies and would thank you in advance.

No network people out there?

JRViejo,

Thanks so much for the information, I will be doing what you suggested in the next few days. The provider has been very good to our organization for the past few years and I definitely did not want to do anything to cause them any difficulties. I plan on changing operating systems from Microsoft XP Professional to Windows 7 Professional in the near future and I am afraid a lot of my older programs will no longer function. Over the years I have accumulated a lot of programs, either free (GAOTD) or at a reduced price (Bits du Jour). If after I change, FrontPage works fine then I have done a lot of work needlessly, I am just trying to cover my bases. The website I am involved with is military connected and our group is all volunteers. This forum has certainly been a godsend for me. Everyone is so helpful, I really wish I had more to offer than I do; unfortunately I just don't have the computer expertise to be able to. Again, thanks you so very much.

John
