I have yahoo business hosting -http://in.business.yahoo.com/. I uploaded phpgedview on yahoo site. It does not support .htaccess. Any one tried installing on yahoo? I appriciate your help.
Thanks in advance.

  Does the yahoo server meet all of PGV's other minimum requirements, apart from not allowing .htaccess?
  
  I would be concerned that with such a strange (in my experience) limitation, you will find many others that will render the system slow, if not totally unusable.
  
  You will certainly not be able to use PGV features like the media-firewall (to protect images from unauthorised download) as they use .htaccess for that. I'm not sure, but I suspect you will lose other important security features, resulting in a very unsafe site.

  Yahoo offer PHP 4.3.11. I find them useful because, they offer unlimited space, bandwidth at just 2000 INR, 40 USD per year. All other features work fine, except phpgedview. The install page does not show anything.

    With PHP4.3, you'll be limited to an old version of phpGedView (4.1.7).
    
    To use the latest version, you'll need PHP5.3

  "you get what you pay for"
  
  Check PGVs requirements. You need, as Greg says) PHP 5.3; PHP needs PDO drivers for Mysql installed and enabled; you need at least 64mb memory; you do NOT need all the various "security" restrictions a lot of theses free or very cheap hosts impose.

    kiwi_pgv,
    
    I've just had a look at my host's PHP version and it's 5.2.5. Could this be why I'm having trouble making multiple changes as once?
    
    Sorry , I don't mean to hijack the thread.

      Sorry - that was a typo. The requirement is 5.2.0 (minimum), 5.2.3 (recommended).
      
      My host runs 5.2.0, and I have no problems.
