My site suddenly stopped working and my htaccess was to blame

Well on 25th my site went down and I contacted my hosting company after after a discussion they told me they would look into it, it seemed that the CGI was causing the error but at this time they couldn't fix it so they moved me onto PHP5 and when I checked the ticket system I read that they had put this into the reply:

Diagnosis: Customer appears to using .htaccess file and it is affecting the script.



They reloaded the CGI script but didn't fix it so like I said they moved me to PHP5, now the reason I am posting here is cus I have vBSEO installed and I am using your .htaccess which I never changed and it's been like that all the time and it just stopped working.

So now I don't know what to do, should I request to go back to PHP4 or still use PHP5? I want to install mods for vB and I heard that some mods don't like PHP5 and that goes for vBSEO, they have enabled Zend and IonCube.

Thanks

vBSEO works fine with PHP5, several people are on that.

Are you using Zend or Ioncube?

IonCube since when I had PHP4 that was all I had installed and now I have both

Ok. That means you have the ioncube version loaded. I think you have to install the loaders for PHP5 on your server. I don't know how you do this, so I cant help you any further.

Open a support ticket

Support should be able to help you get this organized with either setting up the ioncube loaders or you may have to go with Zend. Submit the support ticket as quickly as possible though so you can get this resolved quickly.

please see:
IONCUBE and PHP5.1 or greater
