  added 24 December 2008 by A2 Hosting

Aquarius Storage
added 05OCT09 by IBRRORG

• AQ has been a pretty good fit for me as I am not a programmer, but like a lot of the software. They have cPanel and a deal called Installitron and Fantastico to upload all kinds of stuff like WP, Tiki, SMF...simply look at their list as it deals just about all with open source.
• I pay $4/month for 2G of storage and 40G (I think it is) of bandwidth. The great thing here is that it is MONTH-TO-MONTH!
• Their service is second to none; maybe an hour tops! They also have phone service available. Ryan is the gentleman I deal w/and he knows his stuff.
• I can't speak to their larger packages as I am simply a hobo here in the states so we don't use a lot of space, but they have Virtual Servers as well.
• Definately would recommend them to anyone!

  added 19 aug 2004 by mose
• I'm trying to migrate my cms to tiki, but they have the memory limit in 8M, I'm waiting for an answer from Nexcess's support to see if they can fix it. They did it, the problem is solved they set the memory_limit to 32M. I'm testing Tiki 1.8.6 and 1.9.1 and it seems to work fine. They've been so fast, they solve my problem before I wrote down the first lines.

• I haven't yet tried upgrading to 1.9 but will update here when (if I do that)
  added 6th June 2005 by r5gordini
• I have serious doubt - after contacting them 8/25/05 - the memory limit in 8mb their phpini sylvie
• Looks like they were listenning... The limit is now 40M for both the US and UK. RabidDog
• I ordered the business package on 2-sep-2007. Their marketing info indicated that they had a "quick setup" feature for Tikiwiki. However, once I got my account there was no entry for Tikiwiki. I contacted tech support and they indicated the Tikiwiki quick install was coming "soon". I was able to install via FTP (latest version, 1.9.7 iirc). Wiki is stable and 1and1 gives 100 MB per MySQL database. mzaleski?

  I spotted this in their terms and conditions: Accounts using excessive server resources, to slow or crash a server, will be shut down. Popular BBS, webcams, forums and message board programs are generally not allowed, due to the massive amount of server resources they require. FormMail?.pl, FormMail?.cgi (we have a formmail script available) phpBB, phpNUKE, Yabb and UBB are strictly prohibited on all user accounts. (postNUKE is allowed) might also be a problem for Tikiwiki

godaddy

• GoDaddy does support mysql and php in their basic plan, but does not support the larger php memory requirement. They will want you to be on their deluxe plan or better.
  petehoffswell Jan 2005
• I successfully installed TW 3.0 on godaddy in May 2009 on their least expensive linux hosting service ($4.99/mo); install said the memory limit was 64MB. They also allow custom php.ini which purportedly would customize memory limit if needed.
  commania May 2009
• Finally got into the nuts and bolts of my TW 3.4 app, and uh oh, I couldn't get registration email to work on GoDaddy?. Found another post there (August 2009) with same issue, no responses. No help from GoDaddy?, so I'd say this is still "Unconfirmed" at best. And I'm about to punt and go elsewhere.

Tiki Unfriendly hosts

Hosting offers that Tiki will not run on
Some hostings usually free or cheap have a too small configuration for tiki. Usually, you notice that by having a white page or a page partially displayed (don't mislead with the left col bug)) and sometimes with no message.

1and1 free hosting

• 11/13/2003: 1and1.com - free hosting . The memory limit is 10MB but as php is installed as a cgi, the real free memory is around 3Mb and is too small for Tiki

oneandone

• I've been having major problems with oneandone.co.uk. under the professional hosting package, memory limit is 40MB but, as above, php is installed as CGI so very poor to broken performance - white pages or "out of dynamic memory" errors as noted above. Annoying since I've only just moved to this better hosts from web-mania who are much cheaper and very tikiwiki friendly, although the tech support is rubbish. See below. Russ Wilde

lundl

• Similar problems with the german stem of this company, which I just thought I'd add for completeness 1und1.de same deal as above apparently. ''
  added by Russ Wilde
  March 2004''

1Blu

• used "homepage unlimited", their medium price hosting. It included 1500 MB webspace, 15 MySQL database, unlimited traffic, but having installed Tikiwkik 1.9.9 and using only one of the available 15 databases with a 30 people community i got database connection timeouts and php script timeouts on a regular basis. complained several times, nothing changed. So on 1Blu you could run a tikiwiki, but i add it here because the performance is so annyoingly low i lost most of my community because they got annoyed by the site, lost posts, etc. and the contract time for 1Blu is 2 years that you are stuck with them.

Lycos

• Lycos, or more exactly, the free version (the German version, but this is applicable to co.uk etc. as well) is unfortunately not tikifriendly. It lacks PEAR support, and the manual install in the /lib folder won´t work as various functions, i.e. url_fopen, are deactivated. The PEAR web installer doesn´t work, furthermore register_globals is on as well as safe_mode, which makes it even more difficult. On install adodb didn´t work either.
  added April 2004 by Leonard

Web-Mania

• Memory limit is reported as only being 8Mb, this has caused problems for a Tiki site and the installation had to be moved to another host. Please confirm before ordering that PHP memory limit is either 16Mb or 32Mb - Added 12 June 2004
  I have removed web-mania from this page after I investigated this, see this conversation. RW

Zettai.net

• As of March 1, 2005, with PHP safe mode turned on, Zettai.net is no longer a friendly host to TikiWiki.
• http://www.zettai.net
• Shared Apache 1.3 server hosting with these installed Apache modules: mod_ssl, mod_dav, mod_php4, mod_scgi and mod_perl
• Using your own domain name recommended (by me), but not required
• Bare bones LAMP (Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP) hosting; operating system is actually FreeBSD. See the http://www.zettai.net/ZopeHosting/ZopeProducts (ignore the references to Zope-specific software) and http://www.zettai.net/ZopeHosting/LAMP pages for details.
• Extremely reliable, secure file transfer (SFTP) and secure remote login (SSH) supported, as well as WebDAV and SSL (the last only on the LAMP Basic and LAMP Standard plans)
• E-mail and discussion forum support
• As of March 1, 2005, because PHP safe mode was turned on by Zettai.net on its shared Apache servers, Tiki can no longer be installed through the installation script.
• Basic LAMP plan $29 US/year; if you're starting out I recommend the LAMP Basic at $49 US/year, as this will give you up to 5 MySQL or PostgreSQL databases, one of which you can use for testing, and one for production
  moved from Friendly Hosts to Unfriendly Hosts 02005-02-04 by lilkahuna

powweb.com

• As of March 2005, Powweb have upgraded to MySQL 4.1 leaving our tiki sites broke which is a shame as otherwise their offering is good.

SBC Yahoo! WebHosting

• SBC Hosting memory_limit set at 8M with a 12M max — presumably if you ask nicely as it is not possible to access php.ini

  moved from Friendly Hosts to Unfriendly Hosts Nov 2005 by Io
• Constantly his servers falls down and no warning about this and, not a good service. Bad argumentations about his falls, and a poor MySQL server performance. Tikiwiki runs very bad here. I lost a year of payed host with this guys. My Money Back Guarantee end at 30 days of contract and the disaster comes after this time and the admin complain about "bad software code" (aka TIKIWIKI) to excuse about his low performance, when this warning could be set in the 1st month of contract. A total bad experience.
  update Nov 2005 by rjlabs?
• I now agree with Io. The price is low $4/mo but the downtime is huge! Basic Apache/email uptime is acceptable but mySQL/PHP performance is horrible!!! Five request for service messages not returned for over a week now. I can't even get a 50 unit newsletter emailing out! NO ACCESS TO php.ini!
