Rant about GoDaddy
So I was having a little difficulty with a PHP script that I wrote. It basically gets email addresses from a MySQL db and sends messages to them through a form.
It worked fine last week and then I kept getting "Permission Denied" errors today. So I call tech support thinking that maybe they had made some permission changes. The guy assured me that the did not make changes. I re-upload my PHP and lo and behold it works! I got the message out and everybody (me) is happy. I thank the tech support guy (even though he really didn't do anything) and we hang up. A few minutes later I get a message sent using my PHP script. It's a "test" message. The tech support guy sent a test message to everyone on my mailling list. Now I've got everybody on the list emailing me saying, "I got the test message," or whatever. Anyway, it's not much of a rant. If you host anything at GoDaddy that uses executable scripts just beware of tech support guys executing your code without permission. |

I could have easily prevented the email from going to everyone on the list with a change to a single line which I would have done if I had known he was going to test it. |
