    TGP scripts for virtual?

    I know that the big name TGP scripts don't run on virtual servers, but I am looking for one that does.

    Currently my TGP is run on PHP code that I wrote, and the "database" is a text document split by pipe symbols. I could migrate to SQL- and I will... when the need arises. But for the time being the only thumb rotation I have is a date-sensitive algorithm to find which line to read, and have some very basic click tracking for sorting purposes.

    It works well in practice but eats up a shitload of my time. I just don't have money to invest in dedicated hosting.

    Thanks!

    Oh and PS... the issue is the firewall on my server I think... they don't allow for the remote reading of files. If I can find a way around that or a host that allows it... let me know as well, thanks.

    I run Smart Thumbs in a Virtual account at Naked Hosting.
    Never had a problem with it from the day I installed it.
    I doesn't have massive traffic, some days it gets a couple of 1000 hits and I've never noticed any slowdown if that helps.

      I finally got my domain key for smart thumbs, and I'm about to install it. I have little faith because of this part here:
      2. Next start the installer from your internet browser by typing http://www.yourdomain.com/st/install.php You should see a message saying Welcome to the Smart Thumbs Installation Wizard... with a link which says "Click here to download installation files". Click on the link.
      I can't access anything remotely from my server host. This is why comus won't install either.

      well I'll cross my fingers.

            ok... now let's turn this into a spam thread. Now that I've tried Comus, RoboTGP, and now Smart Thumbs... please spam me with hosts that can guarantee that I won't have this problem after I move. (IE, don't block all outbound connections) Nakedhost supposedly one of them, I will check them out.

            Thanks.

                  Some of my virtual clients run tgp's ...

                  I myself one had an agp install ( or similar name ) that worked fine.

                  If you tell me wich one ( one... ) that you intend to use, I can double check for compatibility .

                  Otherwise, you have jail ssh , or I can do the install if full ssh is required.

                      thanks

                      before I change hosts, anyone experienced with a TGP script and has some free time to help me possibly spot an error I've made?

                      and those of you selling hosting, are there demos or test servers availible?

                          ah shit I wrote out a reply to this but it got nuked. I don't have time to re-write it, so I'll quote above. I went into more detail, but contact me (see sig) if you need more info, or would like to help.

                            I can't assure you of that, since I do not personally use those scripts.

                            The only thing I can do is set you up with a trial account ( your domain, or a temporary one of mine ), test it then decide.

                              I had mentioned a trial account in the response I wrote this morning, but since it got nuked I left that out. I'm definitely interested. If I can install any one of those 3 scripts on your test account you'll more than likely have a new customer

                              send the details to fred @ sexyoptions.com, thanks!

                                  Can you not get a MySQL database? If you can I'd suggest trying to get TGP Rotator from jmbsoft.com. It's not offered on his site for sale as he's pushing his newer script TGPX but you maybe able to still buy it.

                                  TGPR only requires 1 database but can build as many TGPs as you want on the same server. (you do need to beable to add cron jobs though.

                                  In reality why not just get a cheap dedicated? You should beable to find one close to $100 a month.
                                  In November, you can vote for America's next president or its first dictator.

                                    Because that would be $90/Mo. I don't need to spend given the small amount of traffic I have. That's throwing the baby out with the bath water.

                                              there is an icon to edit the php.ini in my host.

                                              bump, nobody e-mailed me with any test server or nothing. I'm swamped with mainstream stuff, but I'll forward it all to Ivan
