I thought I had posted to this thread yesterday but looking back I don't see that it showed up, so I'll try again. :)
I'm also looking for good mod_perl-supporting ISPs. Recently I went through the list on the web site, and either the links were broken, or the sites made no mention of supporting mod_perl. The best I've managed to find on my own is an ISP that starts supporting it at the $250/month level! Yikes. =) The inaccuracy of the list doesn't surprise me since the ISP world has experienced so much turnover and turmoil in the last couple of years. I'd be willing to compile a list of ISPs that you all know about and/or use, and forward that on to the web site maintainer. I know one option is to run your own mod-perl enabled apache but I imagine that a lot of ISPs would get pretty upset about you running servers (especially ones that love memory) on non-privileged ports, if they even allow connections to those ports in the first place. My ideal setup would be to be able to colocate one of my servers and just use the ISP's bandwidth, but those plans are all pretty pricey. So, I'd really like to have a good ISP that supports mod_perl that I can afford because I'd enjoy being able to play around and create sites that use mod_perl outside of work. Of course, I can do it at home, but it's not the best place to host a web app, it'd have an audience of one. =) Thanks, Fran David Simcik wrote: > Alright, I'm a total mod_perl newbie and would like to find a host for my > personal site that allows me to develop mod_perl scripts.
