Hello, All, I have been running Koha on a local server, but am testing to virtual host Koha on a commercial server (for example. Bluehost.com). In local server implementation, you need to "make install" to install Koha. In a commercial server, "make install" is not allowed. So does anyone have any luck to run koha in a commercial host? If so, please let me know the configuration changes, and the company's name. It seems that <virtualhost> configuration is not allowed in this commercial server. If Apache env is not allowed to change in this case, how can we setEnv for "perl5lib" and "Koha_conf"? # KOHA's OPAC Configuration <VirtualHost 150.135.239.44:80> ServerAdmin DocumentRoot /data1/koha/opac/htdocs ServerName kobol ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/koha/ "/data1/koha/opac/cgi-bin/" Redirect permanent index.html http://150.135.239.44:80/cgi-bin/koha/opac-main.pl ErrorLog /data1/koha/log/opac-error_log TransferLog /data1/koha/log/opac-access_log SetEnv PERL5LIB "/data1/koha/intranet/modules" SetEnv KOHA_CONF "/etc/koha.conf" </VirtualHost> Thanks, Yan
Hello Yan, Any luck so far? I, too, am planning to move my Koha to the commercial hosting service where our web site is already located and I am interested in what to expect with such a move. Michel Le Tue, 23 Dec 2008 18:07:34 -0500, Han, Yan <hany@u.library.arizona.edu> a écrit:

Put something like the contents of the virtualhost into an .htaccess file. It works since 2.0 but I don't have a current example handy. There are two ways to install without make install (which is allowed on some commercial hosts like Bytemark and ContextShift - please contact me if you'd like to order from them and benefit my co-operative):- 1. mount your web space with curlftpfs or similar and run make install on your local workstation; 2. make install on your local workstation, then edit the configuration files and copy the tree across to your web space. If the hosting provider is too restrictive, zebra, the cron jobs and z39.50 access (ports 210 and 9990 UDP) may cause problems too. BTW: I think this thread should be on the main koha list, not -devel.
