Bluehost and Magento 2 = NO

So anyone tried getting Magento 2 running on Bluehost? It has been a very painful experience. Magento 2 itself is painful so it is no surprise really, but having such a big webhost with an auto installer that installs version 1.9.1 released over a year ago really?

I have spent hours with their tech support and trying to get it running faster than a snail, and just had constant issues. They don't even bother to have a page on their site how to install magento 2 with their servers, I guess they are ignoring the magento market? Here was a real chat with their tech support:

Thank you for holding. Your patience is highly appreciated.

Do you want to know the path of the file in filemanager ?

K
no I want the path of php 7.0.25 bin

for cli

T
Thank you for holding. Your patience is highly appreciated.

I could see that you have a shared plan so there so is no servers path
You need to have a servers access to get a servers path

K
I need it to run some commands as php7 in ssh

how can I do this then?

magento 2 requires it

T
One moment let me confirms with our expert

K

T
I'm not seeing any issues in your account , please try to re-install

K
I can't

without the info I requested

I need php 7 cli

and I need to know what the actual error is

right now

I have tried 2 methods for magento 2 installation, command line with composer

and downloading the zip and then running the web wizard, neither will work

T
Did you try to install by mojo or manually ?

K
your web installer is stuck at 1.9.1 - that is over 2 years old

(mojo you call it)

T
Php version is already set to PHP 7.0

K
we need 2.2.2, is that available somehow?

it is, but it does not work for command line, see here:

Where to start for working online as a web developer or designer

Here are some opinions and ideas for starting to work online. We will focus here on graphics and programming because they are areas that I am familiar with. So taking those 2 main categories first decide... What is your talent?  You can find this out by taking some online courses and seeing which you enjoy and excel at. You should be able to figure this out fairly quickly - after 1 or 2 online courses in a programming language or graphics course. Personally I took courses in art and design for photoshop/illustrator for web design and loved it, but just did not have the natural talent to make good looking designs so I switched to programming. What do you want to build? Try to find what excites you, rather than first learning the technology and then thinking what can I build. Are you interested in making an iOS or Android app? Do you want to make a flashy website? Do you want help people manage E-commerce sites? Just as a carpenter would first think what they want to build (a de

Review of Paymerica / Paysafe Merchant Account Services CAREFUL

Image
Be very very careful before signing up for credit card processing with these companies: Paymerica or Paysafe. You will pay HUGE credit card discount rates that are hidden from you - if you charge business or international credit cards you will pay 7.9%!!! Not to mention - let's say you don't charge any credit cards for one month. What is their fee? $76.95! yes - for no processing at all they will charge you that in addition to any internet payment gateways that you have. Most people like me probably want to signup for a credit card place with 2.7% discount rate or better. That's what I did with this company. It looked like on the monthly statement that was what was happening. However later I noticed that my total discount rate did not match at all. I about passed out when I later found out what their true discount rates are: They also will try and charge you a "Enhanced Security Package" without any notice of $189 a year. This is their official discount
