My Pylons sites are on in-house servers but I do have a Linode account for our local Python group. I would certainly recommend a virtual server (Linode, Tummy, others) or cloud server (Rackspace, Amazon, others) rather than just a hosting account. I have yet to see a hosting account that was optimized for Pylons, usually they are set up for PHP and Perl and you often have to deal with suboptimal versions of things, inability to install what you want, and inability to set the Apache config the way you like. Virtual servers start at $20 per month, which some people think is too much, but it really comes down to how much you want the site to be up and whether you're willing to pay a bit to avoid hassles with cheaper providers. -- Mike Orr <[email protected]> -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "pylons-discuss" group.
