Installing Zend Framework on a Web Hosting Provider

Contributors wanted
Please help the community by sharing your successful experiences with various web hosting providers using the Zend Framework.
Please note
This page is about installing Zend Framework on a hosting account—not which hosting providers do/don't/might support the latest required version of PHP. Please use Zend Framework Web Hosts for that instead.

It's important to be aware that most web hosts run old versions of PHP. If you are in a situation where this is the case and you cannot compile your own version of PHP, trying sending the PHP changelog to your web host and encourage them to upgrade to the current stable version of PHP. For more information, see Zend Framework Web Hosts.

If you are looking for a new host and want one that will run Zend Framework, see Zend Framework Web Hosts.

For reference purposes, Zend also has a list of providers hosting PHP services, although some might not support the requirements of the ZF.

Popular Web Hosting Control Panels

cPanel

Ensim

Web hosting providers using Ensim Pro in high security mode generally support the use of custom-compiled versions of PHP, provided they also allow access to gcc and a shell account.

Plesk

Plesk, cPanel nor Ensim are web hosting companies, they are just control panels that companies use.

GoDaddy is a large, popular web host provider, which I would add to this list. GoDaddy supports both PHP 4 & 5.

As far as I know, GoDaddy only supports php 5 in FastCGI mode (correct me if I'm wrong).

i would not recommend godaddy for hosting.
