System Info


The System Info page provides detailed information about the system that your Mambo site is deployed on.

The system information can be reached by selecting 'Help' from the Administration Menu, then 'System Information' in the Index displayed.

This includes version information for the site OS, My SQL, PHP, Web server, and Mambo. It also includes the relevant PHP settings.

The information on this page is very useful to Mambo developers when they are trying to help you fix a bug with Mambo. For this reason, it is good practice to post this information along with bug reports or support requests to the Mambo forums.

How to Gather Detailed Information About your Server Environment

If you need to see more detail about your server environment than the inbuilt Mambo System info can provide, create a file with a text editor, calling it info.php (you can call it anything you like as long as you create the file with the .php extension).

In the file, put this one line of code:

      <?php phpinfo(); ?>

Make sure you use the "any file" save option so it saves as a .php file (and not a .txt file).

Upload the file to your site, then call it in your web browser, eg. http://yourdomain.com/info.php

The information you need will show in your browser.

Once you have copied the information, delete the PHP info file from your server space to avoid unwelcome visitors from viewing sensitive server information.
