Stang

me i suggest you www.tektonic.net

i host my dolphin with this compagny and god know how long i search for a good hosting compagny with cheap price and offer vps account... they also offer unlimited bandwidth plan... very usefull when you have video file sharing....

the support is awsome... always offer a live chat support 24hr a day... personnally its my better suggestion... i have to change server 10 time before find this compagny... and now for sure i will stay with this hosting... better price and better space and memory offer than HFW... i personnally dunno why boonex still afiliate with this compagny who offer too expensive hosting account... for a script who actually will host most of the time... free community website..... i never understand that....

When installing, most people run into issues because all the default settings on your webhost assume you are an idiot. So they clamp down your php.ini file and fuck with your permissions so that you basically waste a full day installing whatever Dolphin, Drupal or Joomla, flavor of the month, you got goin. I am in the install phase, now, with this Ray and Orca pop up BS. I am a lil disappointed here. If I get spammed too much further, I might have to suffer through the Drupal 6 nightmare.

What you need to do is send your webhost the requirements sheet http://www.boonex.com/trac/dolphin/wiki/DolTech#TechnicalRequirements
and have the helpdesk sign off on it. At that point, they should play ball with you and you stop getting all those horrible error messages.
They might even install crontab for you. Mine did.
Gd lck.

btw, how do I start a new post? Or is there some clever php program that screens newbies like me??
Ha, newbies have the odds stacked against them.
That's life.
Get used to it.
Or vote for Obama~

dBoon, don't feel bad not using host for web there are not worth what the publicity made them for , not professional, not polite, not knowing what they talk about.(i'm willing to talk to them " again" any time about their " so call "service" ) but i'm not willing to spend time on stupidity!

CyberXing. I switched from HFW to CX after a nightmare two weeks trying to get the site running on HFW I threw in the towel. CX did a clean install of the software, hooked me up with their third rail rms and it took less than 24 hours and that was with a DNS change.

A problem with uploading large files was still with me. I got CX support online with Skype and within an hour the problem was solved.

These folks are what's happening.

NOTE TO BOONEX MGT: Start recommending CX and drop HFW. They bait and switch on the hosting (Yes they are set for Dolphin. However, if you want to run Ray and Orca you have to upgrade to their VPS at a small extra charge of $40 a month).

Do your clients a favor and recommend CyberXing!

So I am a newbie, installing this Dolphin today, and now when I try to upload a video (as the Admin) the software logs me out and asks me to login. I type in the credentials but Dolphin has banished me.
wtf.
I would love to hear from anyone that was successful in uploading a video to Dolphin within 24 hrs of install.
This has totally ruined my day. Drupal 6 isn't looking so bad after all...
This Dolphin is not so open source, very sneaky propietary methinks..
comments??

I dont believe the 'admin' can upload videos. I've never tried but you might want to try as a user.

wtf,m I have about 1500 videos I need to upload. wtf. I can't upload as an admin?? wtf kind of CMS is this?
I need to upload 1500 never before seen videos to launch this fuckin site.
and now i gotta play diddly twinks w this fckn dolphin.
awwn mann. dude told me to go w Drupal.
<<huge gasp of disbelief>>

seriously, I need some support here.
I'm under the gun.
These guys have money.
I look like a total fckn fool selling them the dolphin and I can't even upload 1 video w/o the software sending me to spam sites and logging me out?????
this is a fckn disgrace and
basically the end of Dolphin
as far as my clients are concerned.
I'm gaspin for air here.
I need some help. now.
Or I goota suck it up and call my Drupal guy...
...
....

Seriously, Dolphin is the snakeoil to get you to fvkn waste your time, so that you can get prosletyzed by fckn Orca and Ray, 2 fckn pop up menu spam sites, as far as i'm concerned, ...
I;m pullin the site rite now
cya

I've been using bluehost.com
eversince I installed dolphin I've had no problems at all.. All the plug-ins work great..

I've been using http://www.hostgator.com/ for quite a while now for several of my websites including http://no2ns.com and all I can say is the service is fantastic.

I have been using HFW for 1 and a half years now and have had no problem with them and or commuincating with them as far as I am concerned HFW has been great for me.

I agree with you therock
I am with HostForWeb too, about 2 and a half years and never had any problem with this hosting company. Every time i need support, 24 hours a day, they are there to help me. And believe me, before HostForWeb, i had tried many hosting companies...

I do not recommend bluehost at all. Getting a refund from them (after use of only a week or two) was awful. I had to report them to Paypal just to get my refund.

When I was using 1and1, I was designing and editing my sites using various html editors. Needless to say, I am not sure whether or not they can service Boonex apps.

The service from 1and1 was great at first but then all the sudden went to the very end of the spectrum.
