Installing software: Added JobberBoard, it’s totally full of php errors.
The software admin menus only appear if one mouses over them. Have to hunt for the file to turn off notices… which does not FIX the errors … it refuses to delete or create some items.
Installed OSCMax catalog … it installs fine, just has no categories to add products in the admin - blank white page.
Tried to ftp upload files using filezilla … disconnects in seconds or times out. Uploading a zip… it says successful and the file vanishes.Tried CPanel upload … same issue - times out. Tried uploading a zip… and it does not appear. Tried upload and unzip… an hour later it’s still unzipping a 10 meg zip.
Database issues … PHPMy Admin… takes forever to load, drops connection in seconds sometimes. Try working with that idea !
File manager… how DO you copy or move a folder… no move option anywhere I could find … tried copy … does a partial and times out and takes forever. No option either it seems to copy one database to another either.
PHP options … setting directives … it offers about 4 settings that really are not very useful at all… errors off still shows errors and magic quotes are the only possible settings apparently.
So much for the “FREE” hosting … it’s not much good if common things simply don’t work is it ? Software installers also are not much good either if installs are also defective and don’t work.
And in the process I might add… I am using up my fone wireless data at a remote location tethering my desktop to attempt to do a bunch of stuff that simply does not function …uploading repeatedly only to find nothing works. Basically wasting my data and money. Not happy at all with this hosting. If the free hosting does not work - what are chances that buying a plan will work any better ?
