Q: Can I host this on Yahoo's small business hosting?

Unfortunately not. Services like that are designed mostly for hosting either static web pages or fairly simple web applications or scripts using tools like CGI where programs run for only a short time. ProjectForum behaves differently, because it contains its own built-in web server, which needs to stay running for a long time. Most lower-end hosting services don't allow for this.

It's always worth checking with your web hosting provider to see if they'd allow this type of program to run, and if so, how best to do it. Pointing them to our FAQ will provide them with the information they need to help you out.
