Running Drupal on Bluehost?
Take note of that between the 8th and 9th of May 2008, something was changed on the Bluehost setup! A number of Drupal websites would have greeted the 9th of May with a "Server Configuration Errror".
This article ( http://drupal.org/node/207036 ) from Drupal.org details three ways of increasing the PHP Memory on a Drupal site. Note that setting the following line in the .htaccess file in the root folder of a Drupal site hosted by Bluehost will reward you with a "Server Configuration Error" screen.
This method is VERBOTEN:
.htaccess
Edit the .htaccess file in the Drupal root directory. Look for the section:
# Override PHP settings. More in sites/default/settings.php
# but the following cannot be changed at runtime.
and immediately after this add the following line:
php_value memory_limit 16M
There are still two alternate ways to increase the PHP memory limit on a Drupal based website detailed in the above link.
Let's hope this saves a lot of time and frustration for someone else!
