Use cmsmadesimple on my hosting

Post by BlackDevil »

I have asp.net site hosted at hostforlife.eu. It is windows hosting server. I'm just wondering can I use cmsmadesimple on that windows environment. I see that this cmsmadesimple only available in linux server. Is that true?

Thank you

No, but:
You need a PHP server with MySQL installed to be able to use it, and you may not be able to use pretty URL's easily if at all, depending on the server configuration.
More info...

Hi Jo Morg,

So, if my hosting provider provide both PHP and MySQL, it will work without any issues? Is that right?

Thank you for your response

As I said, other than possible issues with pretty URLs (for that you need a functionality similar to mod_rewrite, which is usually installed by default on Apache servers), you should be fine.

I will try to ask my hosting provider then. The problem is they use IIS server. I hope it will work fine
