Switch host? /tmp is required by the FHS and POSIX standards (writable for
any user), any host changing that should have no customers.

Good point -- we will add that reason to the many other reasons why we are
changing host.
Keep in mind, the installed software worked for nearly a decade and now the
host has changed something that caused this error, but the current host doesn't
seem to know what happened.
Cheers,
tedd

You say tools, but would he consider a full-blown complex CMS as merely
a tool, or not? At this point, I agree, your best option is probably a
CMS with plugins, because 20 days is not much time to build that sort of
thing, and that's coming from someone who develops in PHP for a living.
Thanks,
Ash

Sounds more like a client than someone who teaches php.
I couldn't do that from scratch in 20 days and I teach php at college level.
That's more than my entire 16 weeks course of introductory php. Are you in an
advanced class?

Ok, congratulations -- you are studying for an MSc -- but that didn't answer
the question.
So, let me repeat the question:
[1] "Are you in an advanced PHP class?"
[2] "Or is this just an introductory class?"
If [1], then the coursework might be understandable, but still very difficult.
If [2], that is far more than what I teach as an "Introduction to PHP" course.
