Hosting support

Does Drupal-6.x will work on WampServer 2.0i ?
This contains PHP 5.3.0 and i see there are many PHP 5.3 Compatibility issues in D-6.x

I have hosted a drupal 6.x customized site at yahoo web hosting. First thing is that their server is not allowing me to upload .htaccess file for the clean url purpose. Second thing is after having set all my mysql database credentials in settings.php, still it is showing site off-line. Please help me to sort these out.

Hi,

I have just installed Drupal, which is awesome!

I'm haveing trouble with my logo and account avitars. They are uploading but not displaying.

Any help much appreciated!

I have purchased a new site at DP and tried to host it at my godaddy. I installed the files then the site gave HTTP 403 error.
I sent a support e-mail to godaddy. They have replied to me as below:
Dear Sir/Madame,

I know this is one of the questions that gets asked A LOT on the forums, but I havn't found an answer relating to this specific issue.

We am starting a student-news-site/society for my university campus, and using Drupal for the site.

The site is however to be more than a simple online-newspaper and will contain audio clips (produced by Radio students) and media clips (>20min). So it will be a bit of a resource drain on the server.

The campus has roughly 2000 students.

I just want to post a word of caution about Drupal Value Hosting. I know there have been quite a few posts on the forums about this company, many of which I have read. Those issues aside, they have changed ownership and have been purchased by another company or have merged, so I feel that this will be useful to anyone considering them as an option.

Earlier this year, I moved a client's Drupal site to one of their servers. We chose them because they offered support for Drupal and CiviCRM (specifically allowed sending lots of e-mails with CiviMail). Everything went great. The server was fast, and although support requests were handled slowly, with a little pushing they configured the server to properly send messages through CiviMail via SMTP.

Then, two days ago, the site went down, with a DNS error and a disclaimer saying the server had moved. After contacting support, I received a reply from a new company at a different domain without any apology or explanation for moving us to a new server and IP address. Bizarre that a company would move servers and change your "static" IP without informing someone beforehand. But life goes on, no big deal. It was still fast and everything seemed to work once we updated DNS records.
