Thread: Hosting Dekiwiki

  1. #1

    Default Hosting Dekiwiki

    Hi there,
    I'm interested in creating a dekiwiki. However, it appears that you need a dedicated server or a virtual server. Those are very expensive.
    Are those the only two options for starting up a dekiwiki??? Are there some wikifarms that are available? Or are some cheaper ~$5/mo solutions available?

    I know mindtouch used to run wik.is that offered free wiki hosting, however now it redirects to mindtouch.come, and I have no idea what happened to that.

    I can't seem to find out how to best host this. Thanks so much!

    Your best option is MindTouch Core which is free. Wik.is no longer exists. Existing customers were grandfathered into MindTouch TCS, which is cloud-based. And MindTouch TCS is not within the budget you have.

    Darn, this must have happened quite recently. Thanks for your response.
    I guess it's still the case that this can't be hosted on a shared host like Bluehost? (i.e. need root SSH access + mono which isn't supported by shared hosting services)

    Wik.is was transitioned to MindTouch TCS in January 2010.

    You're quite right that with the software requirements, you'll have limited options in finding a suitable hosting provider. I believe some used Linode in the past. That may be worth a look.
