Install to Yahoo Webhosting site?

Posted:15 Jul 2008 (01:49 UTC)
I am trying to get an installation working on my Yahoo Webhosting site www.hawkswing.com\wiki2\bitweaver .

I have MySql 4.1.1 and the install script shows MySql as an installation option but will nott connect to the database.

Has anyone installed to this hosting provider before? If so any tips.

The server will not allow any files with leading "." so some of the files from the package could not be installed. This is mainly the .htaccess and .csvignore files.

Any help is appreciated. This is my first attempt at such an undertaking and I need to have this working and evaluated soon. I will be launching a business wiki and have to have an approved product picked by the end of July.

If you want to run bw on shared hosting I would recomend a profi hosting like lunarpages.com, hostgator.com, siteground.com etc. Yahoo, Godaddy etc. are rather marketing and sales tools and not a real hosting.
