Re: Best Host hosting companies

Love HostGator. I have a Reseller Account :
http://www.hostgator.com/resellers.shtml

I’ve been with them for about a month and as I move my sites from Dreamhost to HostGator the site speeds are so much faster and the people that were helping me were super kind..

If you have a TXP site that needs hosting let me know. I may be able to help. But I do love hostgator now.

I can’t think of any reason for that. What specifically is the problem?

Well it has to do with symbolic links and maybe the new .htacess file. I have had trouble with sym links before with a plug it but I found a fix for it. But there doesn’t seem to be a way to fix this. Here is the error of of a fresh install. Upgrading produced similar errors.

Re: Best Host hosting companies

Hello Kevin,

Intrigued by your problem, I just made a clean 4.2.0 installation on my Media Temple Grid account and didn’t encounter any problem. I didn’t upload the ‘new for 4.2.0’ sites directory and used the .htaccess file that came with the release.

I don’t suppose that helps much.

Re: Best Host hosting companies

hmm.. I will try again from scratch.

Edited to say that this problem was my fault.
media temple is the best host for textpattern imo.

Re: Best Host hosting companies

For Deutsch speaking admins:

hosteurope.com / hosteurope.de works wonderfully simple with TXP (using anything from txp 4.0.7 to 4.4.1 yet).
The minimum working hosting package is WebPack-L.

1. It’s good value.
2. Like a VPS.
3. One click installs of Django, Drupal, Zope etc…
4. Very diligent and clever people running it.

And how does one install Textpattern on WebFaction?? after uploading the textpattern directory all it does is download the index.php file rather than install TxP.

So far not very impressed with their UI.. very confusing.

UPDATE. after a few hours i have managed to “grok” their system, TxP site installed.

Re: Best Host hosting companies

It’s Webfaction all the way for me.

Are their prices per domain or are we allowed multiple domains on this?

Multiple domains. I’ve got 33 domains on my WebFaction account at the moment, although roughly half of those are development sub-domains so not active live sites. I don’t think they impose a hard limit on the number of domains that you can host on an account, but you are limited by application memory available.

I really like them. I find the control panel, although a bit different to most, a refreshingly clean alternative to CPanel (which I admit I loathe). There’s quite a bit of power and flexibility available, including SSH access, cron jobs, etc.

Their documentation is well-written and covers most of what you need on a day-to-day basis and their support, when I’ve needed it, is quick and helpful.

Re: Best Host hosting companies

Thanks Steve,as TXD is slowly and surely is driving us away, it is good to check out the alternatives.
