Dear All,

I have windows hosting plan with hostforlife.eu. I want to install Limesurvey on my subdomain. I'm just curious whether it will work fine on my hosting account? Could you please give steps to install it on windows hosting platform?

Thank you

Hi,

No PHP on windows hosting plan, then no LimeSUrvey.

Linux hosting on same hoster is cheaper.

Denis

Hi Dennis,

Thank you for your response. I believe that my hosting provider also support PHP. I can see the option on control panel and I can verify it with them. Does LimeSurvey only work on Linux?

Thank you

No,

LimeSurvey support windows, linux or mac.
Need PHP with PDO and a DB (mysql,pgsql or mssql).

But looking at offer : hostforlife.eu/ASPNET-Shared-European-Hosting-Plans : no PHP.
If you have another offer : give the information.

Denis

Limesurvey also works fine on Windows servers but I assume that ~80% of the Limesurvey systems are hosted on Linux platforms.
The installation process should be pretty similar for Windows and Linux so just follow the instructions at the manual.

Of you do not want to grapple with installing Limesurvey on your windows system have a look at the Limesurvey hosting at www.limesurvey-consulting.com/hosting/
