my host service do not allow grants..I cant run DP possible?

[terry]

hi,
after 1 month working on dotproject, (and really like and wish to use on my www.mindcontact.org site :D ) and have tested it in local , I tryed to upload the apps on server. I got a lot of errors, :shock: I made many researches on this forum and send solutions to my host service: 8) the two main problems are arised:
1) "grant privileges to dot project db "
2) setting register globals= off
my host service says that these settings are not allowed :shock: , so I cant run dot project. :cry:
there is a workaround for this?
to understand what I am talking about if someone have a minute go to take a look at :arrow: www.mindcontact.org/dotproject
Thank you vm

I guess you have seen my two forum entries on the related subject. As mentioned, I was able to set up dotProject in a shared hosting environment after I had created the database, attached a user to it, and got the directory right for /includes/config.php. Then it worked perfectly except for the remaining issue of permissions to do file uploads (see forum entry) - which I hope someone will look at. Did you run the check at http://your_domain/dotproject/docs/check.php?

For setting up my locale, I temporarily changed the file permissions to world-writable, and will change them back to read-only after I am done.
