Requesting a Server Module Installation
No problem at all. If you need a Perl module, PHP extension, or any other server-side software installed that is not currently available on your hosting server, simply open a support ticket and let us know what you need. Our team will install it as long as there are no security concerns with the module.
What to Include in Your Request
- The exact name of the module or extension you need
- The programming language it is for (Perl, PHP, Python, etc.)
- The application or script that requires it, if applicable
PHP Extensions
Many common PHP extensions are already installed and enabled. You can check which PHP extensions are currently available on your account by creating a simple PHP info file. In cPanel File Manager, create a file called phpinfo.php in your public_html folder with the contents <?php phpinfo(); ?> and visit it in your browser. This will show all enabled extensions. Remember to delete this file when you are done, as it exposes server information.
Perl Modules
Common Perl modules from CPAN are available on our servers. If you need one that is not installed, let us know and we will add it. You can check currently installed Perl modules by running perl -e "print join(qq{\n}, @INC)" via SSH or by contacting support for a list.
