I once ran mw 1.19 in 2013 or before under the shared hosting service, since at that moment I was fully n00b about git, php(I'm still newbie when it comes to coding), and mariadb/mysql.
Not everybody who is using mediawiki is tech-savvy like they know how to execute shell commands, how to secure their VM/Container against various attacks, etc etc <any unexpected/technical problems here>. PS. I'm not using shared hosting now. My Linode VPS is running Ubuntu 14.04 LTS as of today, and I'm not going back to the shared hosting. -- revi https://revi.me -- Sent from Android, forgive my top-posting. -- 2015. 9. 23. 오후 5:47에 "Gilles Dubuc" <gil...@wikimedia.org>님이 작성: > I've created this task on the topic of shared hosting: > https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T113210 as a proposal for the upcoming > Wikimedia Developer Summit. > > If anyone on this list is currently running mediawiki on a shared hosting > platform, I would really like to hear from you on that topic, either on the > list or on that phabricator task.
