Jeff, yes this this the wrong place to discuss. The right place to discuss this is: http://drupal.org/hosting-support I maintain the list of hosting companies that support Drupal: http://drupal.org/hosting. Hostmonster is not on the list, but I am sure they would like to be. We can discuss off-list about why they should be more clear about what they support. In the meantime, you should contact the author of Ubercart Views and ask that the dependencies or a new requirements section on the project page include mention of the need to support database views (not Drupal views). http://drupal.org/project/uc_views Cheers, Kieran On Thu, Nov 5, 2009 at 10:51 PM, Jeff Greenberg <jeff@ayendesigns.com> wrote:
I figure others like me use shared hosting for their test and/or development servers. Thought you'd like to know that what I found out midstream in a project, with Views tossing errors at me with the Ubercart views. HostMonster doesn't support mysql views. I asked why they feel they support Drupal, and they said that they do, just not views. I said that's like saying they support it, just not php. Their response was, "Actually its like saying we support a Car being in our garage.. thats not saying the Doors on the car will open"
So if you need a garage for your Drupal sites...there ya go...just don't plan on doing any meaningful views and e-commerce.
