Account Activation

[Life Gate Academy]

Hi!

 

We are new to heliohost.org and wanted to know how long to expect before account activation. We are anxious to get started. We chose ad-based hosting to begin with, but may be willing to switch to a paid plan or other arrangement later. We were attracted to your service because of the generous bandwidth/space allotments and the fact you support both MySQL and PostgreSQL. We want to run FOCUS/SIS, which requires Postgre, PHP and HTMLdoc. Your site was the only free host that seemed to offer at least the first two. We also want to run OpenBiblio for our library. This one only requires PHP and MySQL. Our actual webpages are all written in simple HTML. At present, we are running Windows based school administration software, but want to try the open source world before making an investment in our own webserver or finding a paid host.

 

Any help you could give us in our quest is most appreciated.

For me it took only about 10 hours. Check back after 24 hours and it will be up and running.

My site is up and running and I could not be happier. From the control panel, we found Moodle and may end up using most of our space for that instead. So far we have not had much luck installing the software we wanted on this server. I think the problem is coming from configuration file setup problems. Once we figure out the "lay of the land," we should be able to resolve our difficulties. Thanks for your reply.

Everything seems to be working and in order. I hope we end up with enough space. Is there a way to earn or buy more? Also, we did not find HTMLdoc installed on the server in the control panel. Is this package available? We need either this or LaTEX to do PDF files for our school admin software project. We prefer HTMLdoc because the package that is associated with it is much better developed.

 

Thanks,
