I have a finished yii application from my local computer. What I want now is to transfer it to my IBM server, but it seems, a simple "copy-paste" will not work. Can somebody please enumerate the steps to transfer my yii application to my IBM server. And if there is any software my server needs. Thank you!!!
Using version control would be recommended.
You can use Git, Subversion or something else. Push the code up from your computer directly to your server or to your remote repository.

I've created my first application using Openshift Tech. It's a Java Web Application running on a JBoss at Openshift and uses MySQL 5.5 as its database. And I have to deploy by it using the war file (I don't know how to do it the normal way).
So anyone can tell me: Should I create a local database or use online database? And is there another way to deploy my Java app not using the war file?
I would suggest that you check out the OpenShift Developer Center (https://developers.openshift.com), specifically this link (https://developers.openshift.com/en/jbossas-overview.html) about using jboss. Make sure you read all of the sections, specifically the Deployment Options, and the Datasources links. If you are interested in just being able to do a "git push" to deploy your code, you should create a new jboss application on OpenShift, and do a "git clone" of the code and check out how it's setup, it is using the Maven project structure, which is pretty common.
I am new to IBM Worklight,and i found a way to connect to the MySQL using the SQL adapter.
the configuration as below:
<dataSourceDefinition>
<driverClass>com.mysql.jdbc.Driver</driverClass>
<url>jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/worklight_training</url>
<user>Worklight</user>
<password>Worklight</password>
</dataSourceDefinition>
Since the adapter are compile together with the app, just wondering, is it safe? is there a possibility of someone decompiling my apk or ipa to view the adapter connection thus acquire the user and password to my mysql database.
A hacker decompiling your .apk or .ipa file will not find the database username/password there, for the simple reason that the adapter is not compiled "together with the app" and is not part of any artifacts that you install in a device.
An adapter is a server-side entity, not client-side.
The adapter is an object stored in the memory of the running application server.
Adapters are Server side code andare not part of the apk or ipa files.
You can check/confirm this information in Worklight documentation. The details about adapters, under "Developing the server side of a Worklight Application" are at:
http://www-01.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSZH4A_6.2.0/com.ibm.worklight.dev.doc/devref/c_overview_of_ibm_worklight_adap.html
You can also check the Server Side Development of MobileFirst Platform Getting Started Modules
https://developer.ibm.com/mobilefirstplatform/documentation/getting-started-6-3/server-side-development/
(MobileFirst Platform is the new name of Worklight)
In worklight, you usually have the application (apk/ipa) communicating with a server side component (the adapters) running in a worklight server. The adapters are used to communicate with backend systems (like a mysql server). There are a few different types of adapters to communicate with different types of backends (like sql, http and SAP)
Please, let us know what documentation/guide caused you the understanding that adapters are part of the client apk/ipa. If that is really stated in any documentation, it is wrong and must be corrected.
Edit:
To connect to a MySQL DB (no matter if it is a standalone MySQL or in XAMP, LAMP or whatever package) you can follow this geting started tutorial
https://developer.ibm.com/mobilefirstplatform/documentation/getting-started-6-3/server-side-development/sql-adapter-communicating-sql-database/
Also note that, if you are using MobileFirst Studio (previously Worklight Studio) downloaded for free from Developer Works you have a developer version of the WOrklight Server running inside Studio so that you can create and deploy adapters and use it during development as your server. But when you go to production you are required to purchase licenses of Worklight because you don't have the worklight server available for free.
So if you have Studio, you have the server available but only for development purposes.
I'm running into this issue basically:
Can I deploy & Use SSIS SQL server DTS DLL's onto a machine that does not have SQL server 2008 installed?
Since it's been answered I don't know if my request for further information will get any traction.
I'm running into the same problem I think. When I deploy locally on my dev box, my application calling SSIS works fine. When I deploy my application on Server A, and my SSIS package on Server B (my database server), I get the error mentioned in the post: " An Integration Services class cannot be found. Make sure that Integration Services is correctly installed on the computer that is running the application. Also, make sure that the 64-bit version of Integration Services is installed if you are running a 64-bit application".
If I understand things correctly I need to have an SSIS license on my application Server and my database server?
This doesn't seem to make sense. When you make a SQL call to SQL server, provided you have an enterprise license you only pay once. You don't have to pay for an extra license for your application server.
I just want to make sure I've got this clear before I go to the higher ups, and that my problem isn't stemming from something else. So to put it concisely: Do you need to have an SSIS license for both your app server and your SQL Server when calling an SSIS package remotely?
Just to clarify the 64 vs 32 bit thing: I've got 64 bit OS's running on my local machine, the app server and the database server - and all my VS projects are being built to use "Any CPU".
Sorry for the lengthy post, but I thought I should be thorough on this.
You will need to have SSIS licensed (SQL Server) on any machine that is using SSIS to execute packages.
Extended title: How to setup a box with (Windows7 + Apache + VisualSVN + MySQL + PHP) and 3 machines with (MacOs/Windows7) and Dreamweaver CS5 as a web development environment for a small team
These are my thoughts. Please forgive my ignorance, I still don´t have completly clear all the concepts.
1. I need to setup a web development environment for a small team of 3 web developers. The staging and live environments will be in a remote server under an external hosting company (probably Amazon).
2. Our first project is a blog with Wordpress
3. I've installed XAMPP in the box and can be accessed like this (http://dev.company.com/xampp)
4. I've installed Wordpress and can be accessed like this (http://dev.company.com/blog)
5. I've installed VisualSVN in the box and can be accessed like this (http://dev.company.com:8080/svn)
6. I don´t know how to import files for the first time to my repositories in the box (c:/repositories/blog)
7. VisualSVN includes Apache. I don´t know if I should turn off the Apache of XAMPP or if should install another version of VisualSVN without Apache
8. I don't know if I should keep my repositories at C:\repositories or c:\xampp\htdocs.
9. I've read something about hooks? to copy the files from the repositories to the htdocs? Can anybody explain this process?
10. Would it be a good option to keep all the files always in the box? or it is a better option to check out the files to the machines?
11. When setting up Dreamweaver to connect to the SVN Server, do I have to point to the trunk, branch or the name of the repository? Do I have to setup a different connection for each branch?
12. How can we include images and PSD's in the repositories?
When we start a new project we usually just checkout files on clients and commit the changes to the server when finished editing. This way people can just edit files on their own machine (without other users slowing stuff down).
Can't you just do a Linux install for the webserver (CentOS or something like that?). Windows 7 seems so heavy / unfitted for webdevelopment server.
We usually keep the repo out of the webroot.
XAMPP really???
Just my two cents...
It's strongly not recommended to use Apache HTTP server bundled to VisualSVN Server for anything else than Subversion server. So you have to install VisualSVN Server and XAMPP.
Just keep repositories in C:\Repositories. If you move them to htdocs all repository will be accessed for everyone who have access to XAMPP.
Common practice is to checkout working copy to htdocs folder, configure permissions to deny access to .svn and then run svn update in post-commit hook in VisualSVN Server.
What is the best practice for creating an installer for a winform application.
The application is supposed to install the following without connecting to internet.
.Net Framework 3.5sp1
MySQL Server
My SQL Connector
Restore Mysql db
Update Config file with the MySQL uname/pwd.
I have all the msi files for installing the above mentioned items. But am wondering about the best practice to create the installer.
Thanks in advance,
Hi I came up with a similar situation. Firstly you should have .NET framework offline installer which can be downloaded from http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?FamilyID=992cffcb-f8ce-41d9-8bd6-31f3e216285c. I assume you are using visual studio installer. There are couple of choices but I prefer to copy the offline .NET installer to the setup projects output directory and from requirements on target machine tab I set the install URL property of .NET framework the exact name of offline setup file. As described in the figure.
So the installer does not try to connect to a remote computer to download .NET framework and install it however I think it is more appropriate that it connects to a Microsoft server and installs it. Anyways the next step is to configure the MySQL server. MySQL is really generous for me since they support a fully documented noinstall files. You can find the document here: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/windows-install-archive.html
Using a noinstall zip archive you can copy the dbengine core files to any folder on the clint machine. And change the configuration parameters of MySQL. You can name the MySQL service anything you want. Start the the service and create tables. You can do all of this stuff from custom actions tab of the setup project choosing the appropriate script files or you can write code for it. The beautiful thing is that your customer does not need to know that he/she is installing a database engine on the target machine. I hope this helps. Thanks.
