I've been doing a lot of testing and will be moving to a new host. I learned our server has 4,032 other websites hosted off of the same box.
GoDaddy has routinely told me there is no problem, even when I've posted proof (thanks Shawn and others) of the errors. They claim its my software, they are wrong. I installed two other CMS and experience the same instability and also timeouts. These were FRESH installs, no users other than myself, bare bone installs.
The instability, in my ignorant opinion lies with the host.
The goal ...
I've been experimenting with several different CMS and hacks for said CMS.
Phase One - Copy backup of PackersHome.com to new host.
Phase Two - Transfer load to new host for duration of 30 days in evaluation process.
Phase Three - Begin designing theme on new CMS and add features.
Phase One/Two will be repeated until a satisfactory host is found. Current host is paid through April, 2010. |

Did a test install on the new host. Worked great, main functionality intact.
Creating full site backup of files not .wmv or .zip and exporting the database. |

Weird. When I click on the link for PackersBeta.com, my computer downloads an HTML document instead of taking me to the web page. |

" said:  Weird. When I click on the link for PackersBeta.com, my computer downloads an HTML document instead of taking me to the web page. It's Beta. Back home now so I'll be working on it some more. It is a beta site, therefore, errors should be expected. Files are all transferred, but I'm rebuilding the database now. I'll probably be up the next 4 - 6 hrs doing it. |

don't let those words discourage checking ... just saying to expect some errors until I notify it's ready for some heavy hitting. |

[size=24]PackersBeta.com[/size] is online with the new host. You should have to log in fresh as this is a new 'site' with a new domain and separate cookie sessions. |

Moved the nameservers to the new host. Not sure how long it'll take, but once completed, PackersHome.com and PackersBeta.com will be pointing to the new host. |

[size=28]PackersHome.com[/size] is now running off of our new host. We'll see how this goes. So far, I'm very impressed.
This page generated in 0.0671 seconds with 28 DB Queries in 0.0095 seconds
Previously, we were getting 0.821 seconds up to over 60 seconds!
[size=28]new.PackersHome.com[/size] is the new site in progress. Which will take a lot of time. If it's done before opening '11 season, I'd be surprised. |
