Hosting support

Hi,
My installation is having trouble since a few months to deal with peaks of visits, with my simple hosting at Gandi's.
Therefore, I have decided to invest in a dedicated server, or a VPS. I have a budget of 500 € per year, and on peaks I can reach 50 000 page views, but my server usually crashes in these situations. On Gandi's Medium simple hosting pack, I usually reach the limit of CPU capacities.
Do you have any clues on which provider to choose ?
Thanks!
Max

I'm continually getting the error below after transferring my site to another host, sometimes the page may load sometimes this error will show. I have an inkling it has to do with my PHP memory limit but if anyone has any ideas to fix this it would much appreciated.

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 67108864 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 8208 bytes) in /home/gwqtestc/public_html/gymadvisor/includes/menu.inc on line 542

Hi, since last couple days I was happy that suddenly more users started to registrate at my web. But today I checked the list of users and most of them are the same names like nAnta094 jAnta395 KBrad4956 oBrad495 cBrad3959, what that can mean? Is that some kind of bots? Why they could want to make such a lot of accounts?

Thanks for all requests

When I upload files though Drupal (ex. audiofield or filefield) the files seem to time out after about a minute. I can FTP these files just fine though. In Chrome I can watch the percentage of a 35mb file get to about 65-70% and then it just stops uploading, the the little blue circle just keeps spinning. I'm using a 1and1 VPS, and I have gone in and tweaked the PHP limits to be pretty high. I've also tried the PHP.ini method as well. 1and1 customer support, while easy to get ahold of, has been sort of unhelpful.

I hope this is the right place for this.

I am developing a website for a client who previously had a guy make them a site using drupal. Cool because I've used drupal before so I know my way around to grab their current content.

The only problem is that they have a blog and the previous designer had syndication and any other built in way of generating an RSS so I can pull it in to another platform unavailable.

I am currently hosting my first ever Drupal site with Windows Azure. The problem I am having is I cannot seem to figure out relative path names for embedding images. I have FTP access to the web server but I have no clue where to put images.

Any help would be appreciated, if you need anymore info let me know.
