[support] Error trying to install module in new site.

[Jorge Biquez]

Hello.

I am sorry this is kind of off topic, but I guess still related.

I was wondering if maybe some of you can shera off line to me the 
name of your providers you are using. For sure linode is the best 
option for Drpal but I am thinking also to move teh other applicatons 
that are running on my VPS.

I Guess VPS would be the best option, with CPanel installed and 
something similar to Fantastico to do installations. If possible with 
CPanel to start since I guess there is a mode to move easily from one 
CPanel configuration to another .

If possible the recommendation based on experience being able to run 
Drupal without problems. I am still convinced it is what I want to 
learn and I will do it.

Thanks in advance
