How to turn on Output Buffering ???

[Robert J]

I have just installed Abantecart into my cpanel file manager on Hostgator using the Regular installation instructions. 

I logged into the site to complete the setup and on the Compatibility Validation it shows that the Output Buffering is off.  I have tried adding some text to the .htaccess file but i am sure i entered it wrong or in the wrong spot and probably the wrong text.

i searched the output buffering on the forum and what i have seen has not worked, or I did not follow through correctly

help please.

Hello.
Fasterst way is contact you hosting provider. If they allow you to change this you can try to enable it in your php.ini

Wow... see if you have php.ini file in your root and change output buffering with php.ini commands

i made the following changes in public html file in php.ini, it was
  output_buffering = 4096;
and then I changed it to
  output_buffering = On;

it still did not work.  I also changed the memory limit from 128m to 258 and then to 90 neither one worked.

current permission code for the folder is 0644 would I need to change that?

current php.in

output_buffering = On;
magic_quotes_gpc = Off;
register_globals = Off;
default_charset   = UTF-8;
memory_limit = 128M;
max_execution_time = 18000;
upload_max_filesize = 100M;
safe_mode = Off;
mysql.connect_timeout = 20;
session.use_cookies = On;
session.use_trans_sid = Off;
session.gc_maxlifetime = 12000000;
apc.enabled = 0;

Hi.

Some hosting providers block custom php.ini directives. Please contact hosting for server related configuration. It is not related to AbanteCart just tell them about output buffering only.

Please copy your php.ini file into install folder!
That's all.
