Hello!

I’m going to buy hosting on [bluehost.com](http://bluehost.com), has anyone tried before this  
hosting? Has anyone had any problems with installing radiant or rails  
application on this servers?

I chose this one from economic reasons 😉 but want to have both  
Postgresql and mysql databases and ruby, ror and also php if needed?  
Does  
anyone  
know better hosting? Thanks in advance for suggestions.

Bartek Rogoz

Nope; Radiant works great on BlueHost. For example:

Did you code that site? If so how did you do the “request a proposal”  
form? Is it through a radiant behaviour or did you code it seperately?

There will be many form-to-mail and other forms that I need to use in my  
current radiant project - I havn’t seen a complete way of doing this  
yet.

I used Matt McCray’s radiant\_mailer\_behavior. Note that his  
instructions tell you to install radiant\_behavior\_filters as well,  
but I could not get the two to work together.

It worked when I tried it. Unfortunately, Bluehost still uses  
FastCGI for Rails support, so your request probably caught a rogue  
process.

I didn’t claim they were perfect; only that Radiant works. 😉
