Jamroom Hosting - looking for a few beta testers


Jamroom Hosting

Hey Sturmelia, thanks for your input.

Hey Paul, thanks for the response. I'm gunshy now after what happened with Arvixe. But you're right. If the lower package can simply be upgraded, that will be the way to go for me. I just want to make sure it performs well. And since I apparently can't get Jamroom to run on my current hosting, I don't want a third try to bomb too. I'm still waiting on iPage support to respond, but I expect them to tell me that they won't change the Apache setting that I need, because it's a shared server.

So, if I decide to go with Jamroom hosting, will I get a copy of Jamroom that is installed and ready to run? I don't have a site to move. But, I will have to make a DNS entry since my regular hosting manages my site registrations--assuming you guys won't be handling that at least for now based on Brian's response above to Strumelia.

Ah heck, I'm tired of stumbling around with this. If full support for hosting and Jamroom is included with the hosting package, then Brian already has my current host logon and password that I emailed to him last week. We won't need to move a site, but will need a DNS entry. You can set me up on the first level of hosting, and you can upload Jamroom to it, or I think I've had plenty of practice with that now. And, you can set the DNS entry, or I can do that if you give it to me. Let's roll! I'll know in just a few months as to whether my site is going to work out or not, and for all the modules I want to install, it will take me about 5 months to catch up with what it would cost otherwise. If it works, I will want to have the better hosting you provide, and if it doesnt' fly, then I can turn it off later. Of course this is depending on what kind of packages you turn out to offer. Right now, I see this as a month-to-month deal--haven't seen anything about annual hosting packages. Is that correct?

Looks like you will need to add new support options to go with hosting, since some of the benefits of the two are the same(free modules and such). Will hosting come with support like most hosting does? Or will there be an additional fee for hosting support? Will it also cover Jamroom support?

Based on hopes for this website that I dream to build, I'm thinking about going with the mid-level hosting, but candidly, it's a stretch for my budget. Doesn't mean you're asking too much, it seems about consistent with what I've seen. But I just can't afford that and a big support fee too. I'm thinking Jamroom hosting with full support would be a new set of numbers in your pricing matrix, based on you charging for upper levels of Jamroom support. Have you considered that yet?

Jamroom Install Wont Run


Using Jamroom

Well, I wiped it and re-uploaded one more time. Now I get to the installer screen again. However, I enter my database info and click on the install Jamroom button, then click OK, and then nothing happens. I'm really hoping that support will solve the problem with the setting that Brian gave me.

Using Jamroom

I've re-downloaded, re-unzipped, re-uploaded, deleted and remade the database, and I'm still coming up with a parse error. So, I have created a service ticket with iPage using Brian's comments. I sure hope it's just a setting issue that they can fix.

Ultrajam--I was figuring on redoing the database. I'm restarting the whole thing from scratch.

Brian--Thanks.

I reuploaded again, and now I'm getting a server error. Have to run right now, but I'll try it all again when I get back.

Thanks Paul for your response.

Okay, I re-uploaded. Got a server error. Wiped it all out, re-unzipped, re-uploaded again, ended up with the same original problem. Can't get past the install screen. And, I accidentally re-uploaded to the root directory, so that obviously isn't the problem. Checked the server requirements again, and the server meets the requirements.

"Moved info to the ticket Install Issue"

You can see for yourself.

Any other ideas?

I'm having trouble getting past the install screen. I keep putting the database info in, install runs a few seconds, then it blanks out my entries and does nothing. One thing I wonder, is that I installed Jamroom to a subdirectory. Could that be the problem?
