Hosting support

I have developed a site using the quickstart virtualbox made available here on drupal.org.

Now I want to move to a host and have full control to restore what I made in the virtual machine.

Is this even possible on any given host? Or do I need something special?

A bit of background: I simply took the quickstart box and started developing - I didn't do any kind of installation.

I just change my hosting to site5. I was looking some times until I can use drush on shared hoting, so I think would be useful to share some experience :)

so installing drush on site5

- you must have enable ssh
- you need some soft: I use putty
- after you connect to you hosting just download an un-tar drush using wget and tar (outside your drupal directory)
- edit your alias in .profile (logout/login and check your drush is working - is working!)

but, after a while I have issues regarding php limit memory ....

Hi, there,

With as many hosting forum posts as there are about complaints about Drupal on shared, and then replies recommending VPS, I can't help wondering if Drupal is working for anyone at all on a shared platform?

If I have a small Drupal site, that doesn't have any login (user) capability, can shared hosting actually handle it?

Thanks a bunch,

Yo Drupal Ninjaz,
I'm looking for a good VPS solution for a ton of drupal sites I manage. I've sorta come down to InMotion vs. Rackspace.

Rackspace looks great but seems very expensive and very big so I would imagine their customer service is that of any big company, meaning not good.

Hi. I tried posing on my Drupal blog today but got the error message at the bottom of this post. A little bit of trial and error led me to discover that if I use the words "alter table" (this is a post discussing an sql query) in the post then I get the Forbidden access error. But without these words the post is successful.

I am using Drupal 6.17 on a shared host. Any suggestions on how to fix this would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Kadro
