Assuming I can find a hosting service which already has installed the various> elements aside from openCMS (the Java SDK, Tomcat and mySQL), would I be able> to install openCMS myself or would I need help from my hosting service?

You need a restart of Tomcat. Well, not necessarily, but at least access> to the manager-application­ to deploy the war-file and to reload OpenCms> when you want to use new libraries resp. class-files. But direct access> to tomcat is better anyway, e. g. you have to be able to set the> file-encoding correctly.>

Search for a hoster providing Tomcat and a supported database and the> things mentiones above. It also depends on how munch you would like to> spend, but _I_ suggest you better calculate 50 EUR for a good provider> and well done support or even more. Depends on if it will be or should> be a managed machine. Anyway, let me now your decision.> And maybe someone else has a better suggestion. Or ask the> OpenCMS-experts directly (http://www.alkacon­.com). hehe.>
