Hi,

I'd like to be able to use pcntl_fork() in php, but apparently, php has to be compiled with pcntl enabled in order to do that and, well, the php5 version on bluehost isn't. i was wondering if there is any way around this or if there is a way to enable pcntl. using exec is not really an option. well, it would make things a whole lot harder if i had to do it that way :-)

thank you for reading, any help appreciated! even if it's just "forget about it, can't be done". at least i know then.

I suspect it can't be done but you could try asking BlueHost support via their live chat option to make certain.

for those who need this: needs a recompile of php on the server, can't be done at the moment. not until bluehost recompiles their php version with pcntl enabled:(:(:(:(
