  - their previous customers were clueless and wrote inefficient web
 applications
  - their previous customers were clueless and used up significant amount of
 support time with Tomcat configuration questions
  - they don't want the overhead of supporting another technology

I would add that many hosting companies these days are selling VM-based
services with small memory spaces. You just can't run a decent J2EE app
on 64MB of (total) memory, while running a PHP-based app in that same
space just might work.

But not all.  My hosting company, for what I regard as reasonable  
monthly prices (10/20/30),
provides VMs running CentOS 5 with memory spaces of 160MB, 288MB, or  
432 MB,
and have generally been pretty knowledgeable when I ask support  
questions:

per Andre  Johnathan Swift, they only make modest proposals.

Tomcat: Excessive drain on resource?

2008-11-28 Thread hdisgr8

Hi.

I would like our hosting company to host a server which needs Tomcat.
Apparently Tomcat is not supported as the hosting company found it to be an
'excessive drain on resource'. What might they mean by this? 

Thanks for your help.
Henny

I think what mark just said is sufficient.
They can hardly find a better preferment web container than Tomcat

I am also clueless but a little less than I was before. 
Thank you Mark and Ben for your time.
