Multimania.com good for YaBB SE ?

[sonicrulez]

I'm cuurently using multimania.com as webhost for my YaBB SE Board. Unfortunately, I get a lot of errors like internal server errors en when I post a message, there's an extra "/" displayed in my URL. Is this because of multimania or am I doing something wrong?  
My Board URL is
http://membres.tripod.fr/deadlyforce/yabbse/index.php

Thanx for your help and advise

It's because of Multimania.  Them, Tripod, most free hosts are awful...

[sonicrulez]

Damn!, then I need a paid host...

From a webmaster who knows your pain...

Yes, you most definitely do.

And, be careful whom you choose.

I just got dumped by GO2SEARCH.ORG (a TRULY awful host). Supposedly, I violated their TOS (which mysteriously changed after my site started getting popular).

My suggestion - analyze your needs and make the web hosts bid for your services! It WORKS!!

I discovered a site called "Web Hosting Talk" (http://www.webhostingtalk.com), and I put in a bid for hosting services there in the "Web Hosting Request" section - where you can actually bid by stating what you want and what you want to pay, and how you want to pay it (i.e., monthly, quarterly, etc.).

Then, sit back and let the offers come to you!

Here is my thread there, where I put in my request:  http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=39016&perpage=15&pagenumber=1

That does not include all the PMs I received from a gaggle of web hosts. I finally chose one with whom I am very happy, and for which I pay next to nothing.

I would strongly recommend to ANYONE seeking web hosting that you familiarize yourself with Web Hosting Talk. They actually review web hosts, and you can talk to other webmasters about their experiences. Plus, as a member, you can get customized plan offers that the general public will not, as well as special attention (you don't want to cheese off a bunch of webmasters - tends to be bad for business  )

Anyway, I hope you take a look. It paid off for me! And I do hope this information helps you and other webmasters.

Regards,
Brat.

Paid hosts are 100000% better,

I use www.jaguarpc.net and have never had problems.

I looked at the demo-account with the admin-panel : Awesome ! Man, this rulez !

[Jeff Lewis]

Yes, get a job, a paper route, work at a fast food place for a few hours.  Hosting is getting cheaper all the time and it's much better than the hassle you'll find in free hosts

[Nemesis]

I am working on a business partnership on web hosting and design work with my site partner...

Stay tuned.

Pfft. Untill I get over 15 members on AT least one of my boards (one out of over 10  ) I'm not going to pay for hosting. My only problem on Multimainia (after much troubleshooting on my end  ) Was the Ini_get() not wanting to function. And an Occational error.  
HELP ME ON THAT G*D D*MN ERROR!! (the safe mode -ini_ger one)

You can get 50 MB of space from KCDWorks.com for only $5 a month paid through PayPal ... just email [email protected] ... I have my site hosted there, and I'm not having any problems. I actually do some tech support for them on my board, so they're running a special for my users. You can find it at www.monsterhunt.org in the general discussion section.

have a board on multimania and I wanted to know two things ... my board is functioning, but in the settings.php file you have to fill in  "smpt_server" . What do I have to fill in

and ... is this the right sendmail for multimania?:  /usr/sbin/sendmail
