Hi, i am a very new user to drupal. I have to migrate a website from DotNetNuke to Drupal. My question is do the hosting company has to support drupal installation in order to install it or it does not matter. And as far as I saw, they support Joomla, WordPress and one more, but in the list there was nothing about drupal...
Please help!!!!

can't find the answer on drupal's requirement

ItsJustHosting.com - Professional Grade Managed VPS (Virtual Private Servers)

Sales @ ItsJustHosting.com
Hello everyone!
For a limited time we're offering deals on our premium fully managed VPS plans! Take advantage of some of the best performing VPS plans anywhere thanks to undersold enterprise grade hardware and one of the best networks in America!
You may find similar plans advertised for less by other providers, but to meet costs such providers have to place many accounts per server, which leads to poor performance and reliability. Such providers also often use desktop grade or outdated hardware, which also affects performance. Don't be fooled by shiny ads, sales, and low prices, if your business or application depends on reliability and performance, why take a risk with low cost providers?

I recently changed hosting provider from one.com to drupalvaluehosting.com
I'm having a bit of a nightmare to be honest, one.com was pretty good to begin with, it wasn't untill my site started to get a little more complex that I discovered the PHP memory limit that they have of 32mb. So I searched for another hosting provider and found DrupalValueHosting.com.
DrupalValueHosting.com seemed a little too good to be true with 2000gb of space, PHP memory limit of 128mb, unlimited emails,domains,subdomains,sql db,parked domains, etc., etc.
Well it's true what they say about things that seem too good to be true, almost every weekend my server has been down so far, and once it goes, so it seems www.drupalvaluehosting.com also disappears, so I have no support route, guess I'll have to find there phone number and save it somewhere when they re-appear.
They better get thier act together soon or I'm outta there, and I'll be demanding the full years subscription I paid

Is Bluefish Hosting compatible with Drupal? I have used the Bluefish interface for my website for a while now but am looking to redesign it using Drupal. I'm not extremely tech savvy and wondering if it's possible and how to integrate the two.

I've noticed the following error coming up in my server logs, I wonder if someone could help me identify the problem
Feb 24 11:50:07 xx024 drupal: http://www.xxx.net|1267012206|page not found|87.115.xx.xx|
xx024 = servername
the final IP is my PC IP
1267012206 - this number changes for each entry
Additionally I've noticed in Google Analytics I get visitors at http://www.xxx.net/404.html?page=/index.htm&from=
I don't have a page called 404.html, I use my hosting control panel to redirect all 404 errors to index.html
