VPS Hosting With Mysql 4.X Support
May 7, 2009
I have some legacy web applications that requires MySQL 4.X to function. Too much pain to upgrade. Can any of you recommend a VPS linux hosting provider that you can vouch for, who also support MySQL 4?
I am currently using MediaTemple GS which has MySQL 4 support; however, recent problems have made me want to consider other options. Unfortuantely, MediaTemple DV (thier VPS option) does not have MySQL 4 as an option.

I currently run a website which is hosted with storminternet.co.uk and, while I can't fault their reliability, the (lack of) performance is undermining the usefulnes of the website.
Key features of the website are:
- completely MySQL/PHP driven so the host needs MySQL support and processor power . Some of the MySQL queries are fairly complex and call upon multiple tables of large datasets.
- monthly bandwidth is much less of an issue than speed (if that's not an oxymoron) as the number of visitors is currently <250/day.
- most if not all of the visitors are from the UK
In terms of budget I would be willing to go £150+/year if the service was top quality.

While trying to compile PHP 5 with mysql and mysqli , I was facing some issues.
Actually, the configure command generates a bad Makefile.
Open the Makefile and look for a line staring with EXTRA_LIBS
You will see that the option “-lmysqlclient” is repeated twice. Delete one of them and save the Makefile.
Now, you should be able to run the Make command and compile PHP without any issues.

"Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client"
I upgraded from MySQL 4 to 5 and everything was fine for about a week. On Monday, I get the error above. From what I've read, this is the oldpassword/new password hash error that I can fix in about 2 minutes on my server. However, this is on a Parcom server, and Parcom has been sloooowww to react.
Can anyone think of another reason why this would be coming up? It's running fine on 3 other PCs that I run as a backup. I've dropped the database twice and rebuilt it twice, still with the same error. Ditto for the user/pass.

I want to buy a hosting service with following feature
1 SSH
2 SSL
3 Rsync
4 SVN
5 Wordpress, Drupal support ( plan to run multiple wordpress and drupal site in this hosting plan)
6 multiple domain name support in one hosting plan
7 a lot of bandwith
8 great customer support, and low down time
I do some research and have a chat with justhost.com and they seem to support everything i need however, after reading some review seem like they try to force you to update to dedicate server when your bandwidth is up.

I am currently hosted with HostFresh on their HongKong sever (Shared Hosting) and my site has been down for 7 days now!
I tried emailing them for several days, before calling their US phone line 3 days ago, which I was told they could not help and had to wait for an emailmwhich i replied I had been waiting 3 days for a reply..... later that day I finally get a response for my email which asked what the hell is wrong and when it will be fixed, the simply say- site was nullrouted and have to wait for it to come online
this was 3 days ago now... I have sent 1 (sometimes 2) emails per day since, I currently have 8 open tickets, all ranging from the last 6-7wks - YES... I had open tickets when this all began t do with me paying my bill twice, which i heard nothing for weeks so I did a charge back through PayPal.. another mater.
Does anyone else have this problem with support there?
and with the site?
is there a way I can get my files of the server and DB?
can someone please advise what I should do?
I am hopeless with out them as they have my site files, otherwise i would have dumped them days ago!
by the way, I have emailed them number of times, they just ignore me, I am going to be calling again t the U.S in the morning, though they have no idea, and frankly nor do I - I need my DB it has my whole site for the last 18mths on it - over 10,000 members info.

I am writing a PHP/MySQL application which extracts information from a .DBF file on a remote server and then builds a web page.
However, I just found out that my hosting company doesn't (and won't) support the FTP functions within PHP and they won't enable DBF file support (extension=php_dbase.dll in php.ini)
Does anyone know if other hosting companies will do this?
Also, at the risk of asking a very broad question, is there a place to go to get consolidated reviews of web hosting companies?

How much traffic can a typical $5/mo shared hosting account support?
A lot of them claimed "unlimited" bandwidth and storage. Of course there's no such thing as unlimited.
I have a site based on Python, Django, MySQL or Postgresql. It doesn't have any video or other bandwidth heavy elements, but the whole site is dynamic, each page takes about 5 to 10 DB query, 90% reads, 10% writes.
What kinds of traffic can a shared hosting account support for a site like that?
At stackoverflow.com, someone stated that a $5/mo shared hosting account can typically support 10-20,000 unique users per day or 100-200,000 pageviews/day. Does that sound about right?
Any recommendation for a good hosting company that'd suit my needs? My site will start small but hopefully will ramp up quickly. I'd like a hosting firm that can support that growth.

It's imperative for you to know that web host features does not just stop with Unilimited disk space and unlimited bandwidth. There are other very salient features to which some people looking for a host provider have ignore, it is CUSTOMER SUPPORT.
You will not value the importance of a good customer support until you start having problems which you want resolved in the shortest possible time. For some host providers this is like telling them to do the impossible.
It is sad that some of the so-called reputable host don't even have a ticket system not to talk of an on-line chat system where you can ask questions and receive answers in real time.
So, for those of you that are new to hosting or want to change your host, then you had better look for a host that offers good customer support either by Chat, ticket system or forum.

I'm needing to move one of my own websites, as the current shared host doesn't provide curl or full PDO support.
I'm tempted by the basic fasthosts linux home package, as I've used them before for a client, but I'm not sure if they're shared hosting includes curl/PDO support (I know their dedicated servers do, as I've just checked).
I've just sent an email to fasthosts asking, but are there any other hosts I should be looking at?
The site's nothing critical, with pretty low bandwidth needs, but the current hosts uptime isn't anything to shout about.

I've been with Zoom for 2 years now, and I'm leaving as soon as I find another host.
Here's why: once a month, for the last 3 months, emails I send to a Yahoo.com address are bounced because Yahoo is blocking all email from my mail server. When this is finally dealt with, it turns out Yahoo blocks everything coming from Zoom (or my shared server -- sorry I'm not technical) because of spam originating there. Now, *I'm* not sending spam, and spam is annoying enough to deal with in my in box, but now other people sending spam are stopping me from sending my little 20-30 emails a day!
Here's how tech support has worked for me when this problem comes up:
1. I go on and open a chat with support.
2. Someone In India eventually says hello to me.
3. I state my problem.
4. Long wait.
5. Someone In India eventually comes back and says "hello" again.
6. Now I'm pissed. I tell Someone In India what the problem is and give her email
headers and tell her to pay attention.
7. Another long wait.
8. This Someone In India gives me an email address at zoom to email directly about this problem.
9. I email TheAddressIWasGiven @ zoom explaining my problem...and THAT EMAIL BOUNCES! Despite the irony of having an email begging for help with bounces get bounced itself, I am not amused.
10. I go to call Tech Support... DOH! They no longer have phone support.
11. I fill out an online support and send it in. I wait No reply. Emails to Yahoo still bouncing.
12. I fill out another one. I wait.
13. I get an email telling me my second support request is being closed since they are working on the first one. Really? First I've heard of them working on it.
14. 20 minutes later I get an email saying they're working on the first request.
15. A day or so later, I get an email telling me it will all be fine in a day.
16. Sometimes it's fine, sometimes I get another email telling me to go to Yahoo and fill out a form to get them to unblock it.
17. I fill out a form at Yahoo and it gets unblocked within hours.
I am currently suffering from the latest email bouncing and am at step # 14.
Which is what drove me here to find a real host. Something about getting lumped in with spammers is just....icky. Yucky.
Also, they spontaneously took my little web site off line several times because they messed with directories. It took days to get right. My business is not web-based, but it was still annoying.
Anyway, there's my cautionary tale about Zoom . A few mistakes are forgivable, but this is too much.

There are a lot of people whether their web hosting providers are good or not. After months of purchasing their web hosting account they might discover that their web hosting providers are so bad. Therefore, you’d better checking your web hosting provider.
One of the most important parts related to web hosting is the supporting services. So when you purchase a new web hosting account, try to check their supporting services. Try to ask them a few technical questions even you don’t have a problem. It just tests their supporting quality. How do they answer your questions quickly? Ask yourself this question. If they spend a lot of time “two or three days”, it might be poor service. For this situation, my advice is to cancel your account. The most of web hosting companies offer 30 days money back and try another web hosting company.
There are many supports kinds:
* HelpDesk
* Live chat
* Supporting via Phone
* Supporting forum
* And so on
This is all about the supporting part for your web hosting provider. So this is very important to check this service.

The Web hosting industry embraced the benefits of outsourcing to maximize the profits.
Web hosting being a competitive business, it is imperative that any and every benefit that comes on the way is picked and used to its maximum. There are many companies which provide support for hosting companies.
Outsourcing support saves the Web hosting company a lot of money and time. Web hosting companies can focus on selling hosting plans while the outsourced support for the Web host can provide quality support to the customers and manage servers 24/7. The Web hosting company does not need to hire many experts who will check the overall quality of delivery to their existing customers and technical experts for managing/monitoring the server. Top outsourcing companies that provide support for Web hosts have an internal QA team that takes care of the quality.
In Web hosting industry it is critical that the servers are up and running all the time. It is expensive to have technical support staff on a 24/7 basis, add to it the cost of buying the software to help you manage and monitor the servers. Most of the companies that provide outsourced support for hosting companies have a complete setup needed for 24 X 7 support to customers like having 24/7 phone support, managing and monitoring servers and helpdesk support system. These things in mere infrastructure will increase costs of a web host, add to this the time needed to manage this setup and people. Hence outsourcing your hosting support is a smarter way.

My current host has just shafted me by discontinuing PDO_MYSQL support on my setup without warning (my sites now don't work and they won't do anything to rectify it).
I found another host and asked sales about the PHP version and whether PDO_MYSQL was available and was given mis-information, so I'm now cancelling the service I signed up for this morning.
I need:
PDO_MYSQL (most people only support PDO with sqllite!).
PHP 5.2*+
Ability to install pear modules.

I had purchased an SSL certificate from Go-Daddy. The Tech support people at GigaPros were more than willing to give me the advice I needed and to get the certificate installed for me in very short order.
Polite courteous professional service, excellent response times and top notch support. This company offers excellent value for the money! I highly recommend GigaPros!

I've been with Cyberpixels hosting for about 4-5 years now, and I tried to contact them about 4 months ago regarding login info for my ftp & domain since the original registration email was sent to a email account I had with a domain that just expired. Anyhow, 4 months later no tech support response! I've tried everything I can think of to contact them.. includeing phone.
This is a big problem for me because my business depends on my website and I can't access even the domain!! All my promotional work includes that web address (meaning I've spent thousands promoting a certin domain and now I'll be screwed if I can't access it).

We’ve been with PowerVPS for approximately two years given the positive recommendations from WHT.
Few days ago, our site was hit by the MPack Malware and has affected ALL domains on the VPS as well as the cPanel/WHM core file. We have since secured the vulnerability and cleaned the important domains. Yesterday (July 13th) we requested a full VPS restore to be initiated from the July 11th nightly backup to ensure any other unknown changes are rolled back. We were quite disappointed to be told that there was no backup from the 11th available and that the latest would be the 9th. This came as a blow as they advertise nightly backups for their VPS Servers.
Here is their backup process from their support site:
---
PowerVPS backs up your VPS nightly to a dedicated backup server with a raid5 or raid10 array. The nightly backups are incremental [1] for six days, and on the seventh day a weekly full backup [2] is performed. Two full backups are kept and the old ones rotated out automatically.
As many as fourteen backups are kept at any given time. The automated backup scheme allows for enough room for full recovery from the incrementals (which require the most recent full backup to exist), the other full backup, and still leaves room for customer initiated backups.
---
As a result, we have asked for the July 9th backup to be restored and it has been a full 18 hours now which they claim is to create a list of file differences and than the actual restore, which the later has yet to start. Although I do not know the exact process on their end, I cannot imagine how if the server was non-functional, that a restore that has so far taken 18 hours and counting, with no ETA, would be acceptable. Add on top, the lack of nightly backup from the night before.
If anyone could shed light on how a restore could take over 18 hours, please chime in. As for now, I am one very disappointed customer.
