My hoster is IX, and I've just recently upgraded to their PHP 5.2. When installing I get the following failure. I've searched and I cannot see anything I can do with this, so I've opened a ticket with them and posted the problem here. Anything I can do on my end, or is it all up to IX? Thanks!
Requirements problem
The following errors must be resolved before you can continue the installation process:
* register_globals is enabled. Drupal requires this configuration directive to be disabled. Your site may not be secure when register_globals is enabled. The PHP manual has instructions for how to change configuration settings. (Currently using PHP register globals Enabled ('1'))
* Multibyte string input conversion in PHP is active and must be disabled. Check the php.ini mbstring.http_input setting. Please refer to the PHP mbstring documentation for more information. (Currently using Unicode library Error)
Please check the error messages and try again.

yes, have your host disable register_globals
yes, have your host disable register_globals
BTW, the search function on drupal.org works great:)
I have to leave register_globals on - now what?
Our server here at smith college has some older apps on it that require register_globals on. My attempts to setup a custom php.ini file have failed. Now what?
I am installing drupal 6.1 in a subdirectory of the WWW root.
