hi,
My hosting provider is very crappy. One of the basic things, i.e. shell
access, is not available. This has many disadvantages because I cannot
run almost
any maintenance scripts. I found that I could use cron scripts to replace a
shell, (it does what I would do in a shell), but it is very tedious and has
been the cause of many problems. I had to import something to the wiki and
ran the scirpt through a cron script but forgot to remove it and it kept
importing it over and over till i saw that some pages that were deleted
again came up.
moreover, the server is in such a location that cvs update is
neversuccessful. In my computer, cvs update updates the code within 20
or 30
times, but in that server, it has never updated. I made a script to keep
updating it till it succedded and it updated only once in 24 hours. This
definately caused problems to the host, and they temporarily suspended my
account. So I see no way out of this except change my hosting provider.
Does anybody know a good hosting provider that suites my needs?
