Your Questions About Yahoo Small Business Web Hosting
James asks…
Can I run Zenphoto on Yahoo Small Business?
I want to setup a web hosting account with Yahoo but I will be using Zenphoto which requires MySQL 5, may may work on MySQL 4.1. Does anybody know if Zenphoto will run on a Yahoo hosted site?
admin answers:
Hey Paul,
Currently, Yahoo! Web Hosting doesn’t have MySQL 5 running on our servers, however we are working on making that upgrade possible in the near future. When it becomes available we will let our customers know about the upgrade option.
Since ZenPhoto is requiring MySQL 5 in order to run, it will either run poorly or not at all on MySQL 4.
If you have any other questions about our version of MySQL, feel free to contact us at https://smallbusiness.yahoo.com/contactus/

Who Are The Top Webhosting Companies that Allow .HTACCESS Files to be Uploaded to Virtual Server Directories?
I need to upload .HTACCESS file to a designated folder but Yahoo Small Business Web Hosting does not allow this. Please tell me of a few “Top Tier” web hosting companies that allow this. Please no “fly by night” or “offshore” web hosts that will be out of business tomorrow, thanks.

Yahoo! Small Business?
I purchased web hosting from Yahoo!’s small business section. I e-mailed them a question, and 1 day and a half, no reply. This is unacceptable. The average response time is 24hours, which is still, unacceptable. Is there a backlog of e-mails or something? Please, let me know.

Hi Ben,
I understand your frustration, and you’re right that a day and a half is a long time to wait for an email response. We typically are able to respond to questions much more quickly, but unfortunately, we experienced a glitch in one of our email servers this week that caused emails like yours to back up. We have fixed the problem and are working overtime to reply to all of the backed-up emails as soon as possible.
If you need an answer more quickly, you might want to just give us a call. To do that, visit our contact page: https://smallbusiness.yahoo.com/contactus/. Here we’ll ask you to pick the topic that matches your issue, then provide the toll-free number at which we can best help you (to speed up response time, this number is reserved for account holders only, so I won’t print it here). We should be able to resolve your issue quickly.
Thank you for your patience.

Can I get a yahoo small business account in Canada?
I created a website for a business in Canada and filled out all of the forms etc only to find out at the end of the process that the funds are in US dollars.
Is there a way to use yahoo web hosting but get a .ca site and pay in CAN $???
admin answers:
It will not hurt you to try it. You probably could get it in Canada than the US NOW.
