Question

Don't want to pay for dedicated server for dev work. I don't want to run a live apache server.

Is it possible to integrate lithium framework into shared hosting account doc-root?

Was it helpful?

Solution

Sure it's possible. The only requirement is the version of PHP which should be >= 5.3
The .htaccess shipped with the framework is the only thing needed, to get a shared LAMP stack running with Lithium.

OTHER TIPS

If you're meeting the requirements for Lithium (PHP5.3, etc) there's no reason you'd need anything dedicated.

Per http://li3.me/docs/manual/getting-started/requirements.wiki, the only requirement is PHP5.3. Everything else is gravy.

Command line access and stuff like git should come with any self respecting hosting company's offerings, even the bargain basement ones. Some of the optional modules, like MongoDB, can usually be run on the slightly beefier options (i.e. Dreamhost only allows Mong
