HI,

I use yahoo small business hosting. I am unable to install drupal in it. After I upload the drupal files and visit the url of the directory I am faced with a blank page. No error message. Nothing at all.

There are many restrictions on the yahoo small business web hosting such as they don't allow register_globals, .htaccess files and so on. Please help me install drupal.

Change hosting companies. There are just too many problems with Yahoo. Do a Google search for "install drupal on yahoo small business" and you'll see what I mean.

The web hosting account was purchased very recently and I cannot afford to and buy a new hosting. There must be some solution to this problem. The other threads in the search are atleast able to see an interface before they see the error message. I see nothing.

I see 0 bytes returned from the server for the drupal directory. Please help.

I had Yahoo Small Business and switched to InMotion because of all the limits that YSB enforced. All I had t6o do was call Yahoo and they released everything to Inmotion. InMotion is cheaper, too.

[EDIT]
The reason I'm here today (I almost forgot) is that I have a client who want to keep his Yahoo! Small Business hosting, but everything he wants me to do for him will probably require Drupal. So, any suggestions?

I'm in the same position of you of having a client with Yahoo Small Business. Given the age of this post, I'm hoping for good news, but I found this in Yahoo's help system about not having access to .htaccess
