Just adding my story to the list of folks frustrated with GoDaddy on the issue of WordPress/Windows.
I have an incredibly simple WordPress Blog – 2 posts no plugins or anything that I’ve been trying to get to work on GoDaddy Windows/IIS 7.0 Shared hosting for about 2 weeks. It worked at first but then switched to 500 errors almost 100% of the time. (I need windows hosting because the main body of the site is done in asp.)
I worked with their support “escalation” team who gave me some suggestions, although always with so little information on how to implement their suggestion that I had to google for more insights and couldn’t be sure that I was implementing their suggestions properly.
Finally after a week or so, I’ve given up. I can’t switch hosts right now for a variety of non-technical reasons, so I just created some html pages to mimic my pathetic WordPress blog.
Thanks GoDaddy. I wasted about 4 or 5 hours trying to fight through this with you. If you don’t support WordPress on Windows, just say so.
