[phpesp-general] Recomendation for service provider to run phpesp

[Tom A. <arn...@gm...>]

Depends on what you need. If you just need it installed, and
occaisional updates as the package changes, you can find a hosting
company that allows very very easy installation with a tool called
Fantastico or something similar. Fantastico is designed to allow
installation of common web hosting packages with just a few clicks. It
takes care of what can otherwise be some confusing steps for
installation. I'm not saying that phpesp is particularly hard to
install by yourself, but if you're not comfortable with file
permissions, creating directories, creating databases and users, then
just about ANY PHP+MySQL package can be a bit daunting. Fantastico
makes that all really simple by taking care of the needed steps and
asking just a few questions.

One thing to check on though: just because a web host offers
Fantastico, does not mean that you will necessarily be able to install
phpesp with it. I think the ISP gets to choose which packages are
available for install via Fantastico, so be sure to ask.

Now, if you are looking for a service provider who offers specific
expertise in how to USE phpesp, that's a different level of support
altogether.

My ISP is called psek hosting (www.psek.com) and they offer
installation of phpesp via fantastico, but no specific support beyond
that. I'm happy with them.
