How can i run multiple development cakephp projects on the same cake server and access them via http://localhost:8765 ?
is that possible ?
thanks in advance
Using another port to second application.
See this example in cake book: http://book.cakephp.org/3.0/en/installation.html#development-server

This is my first question ever at stackoverflow, hope I make sense out of it. I am starting to learn about databases and also programming these days. So I would want to get some advice on MySQL database. Though it's open source and available for download, Should I install the standalone MySQL GUI version on my laptop (Windows 7 32bit) or should I install XAMPP and then access it through phpMyAdmin ?? My purpose of asking this question is that , for starters..I am learning SQL and querying. And then I would want to learn to create web application using php or JavaEE.
I am completely unaware of these concepts, so I would appreciate if someone can just take few minutes and guide me accordingly.
Thanks !
Regards
and welcome :)
If you're planning on concentrating on PHP more than MySQL, it's a good start to install XAMPP. It's more lightweight and contains both PHP and Mysql. It's better for you to concentrate on learning the basics first, rather than spend time on software components. That's why I would choose XAMPP (or my personal favorite: WAMP Server)
If you'd like to spend a bit more time on database management such as user management, jobs,... it could be interesting to download the Mysql server package from their site.
Also, that package comes with example databases which you can use to learn some SELECT and UPDATE queries. It queries a lot easier that PHPMyAdmin.
If your goal is to use MySQL with self-made applications, get XAMPP and learn some PHP before diving into queries
And then I would want to learn to create web application using php
In this case XAMPP should be your friend. BTW with XAMPP you get an MySQL-Server which is identically with the MySQL standalone. You can fire your querys by using phpmyadmin, or connect via shell (console) or thridparty programms ....
In case that you are using NPM, you can install a standalone version of MySQL using the mysql-server package: https://www.npmjs.com/package/mysql-server
So, I'm writing a basic application, with a html5/jquery front end and a ruby backend. I've never used a ruby backend, and was wondering how I'd go about that. I am going to be using MySQL, very much like an Apache/MySQL/PHP thing but without PHP. I will need to eventually put the application on some sort of web server. For now I just need something local so I can develop it. So, is there a WAMP for ruby instead of php? I've been reading and Ruby on Rails seems like it may be what I'm looking for, but I'm really not sure.
So, what kind of platform do I need to learn in order to do this. I want to use ajax if possible(ruby backend). How do I go about setting up my environment.
Sorry if my question is somewhat vague, thank you so much for the help.
IMO railsinstaller is the way to get started on Windows.
For getting started with Rails itself, Hartl's Rails Tutorial is great.
When I was developing in Rails on Windows I used rails installer as Dave Newton said. For local development you can either use the bundled database SQLite and the bundled WEBrick server which means you don't need to install Apache or MYSQL. If you really want to though, XAMPP worked for me to provide MYSQL and Apache services on Windows.
I have a project to work on. The project requires SQL server. I am using LINQ. So since I dont have SQL server installed on my computer, is it possible I can just use the LINQ designer to create my classes? And then when I do publish my website to a online hosting company, I can use the LINQ to create the tables and stuff?
Is this overly complicated? I want to stay away from using SQLite, or SQL Server Express or SQL server compact because its hard to transfer stuff. Atleast for me. My one problem is also that I want to use ASP.NET Membership stuff. If I run the .exe tool to automatically create my tables, how would I accomplish this without using a db? I tried using SQL server compact (mdf file i think?) but apparently the tool does not support it.
So what are my options here. I'd like to being programming right away however paying for hosting online is just a waste of money for me right now until i have some of the project done.
I'd suggest installing SQL Server Express Edition on your computer and using that as your database during development. I know that there can be some confusion and difficulty when upgrading your development database from SQL Server Express Edition to the professional edition on the hosting company's database servers, but I'm confident that the time you will need to spend on that will be dwarfed by the time you'd need to spend to build and use a mock database layer, not to mention the extra testing you'd need to do once you moved to a real database.
Also, the challenge in moving from SQL Server Express Edition to the professional edition at the hosting company shouldn't be too bad if you choose a web host that has tools for importing your SQL Server Express Edition database into their database server. (Some have it so you can just upload your SQL Server Express .mdf file and it will automatically import it into their database server.)
Two things you can do
Install Sql Server Express on your development machine (or a server on your LAN). This way you will have a local database to develop and test on.
Not necessary, but you "could" try to use Entity Framework in place of LINQ, and use Code First mapping.
Also with Sql Server Express, you can do a lot of your database work right from Visual Studio (providing you're running VS Pro).

Upgrading shouldn't be too difficult.

aspnet_regsql.exe works on Sql Server Express
Use SQL Server Express. It is free. Easy to install in your development environment. In SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS), you can right-click on a table and generate scripts to create the table if you did this from the graphical designer. All you have to do is run the script on the new server. There are free tools that can create/transfer data as well.
What are you going to do down the road when you need to test changes? I hope you don't plan on using the production database.
Just generate your entities by hand, later you would be able to easily attach SQL Server to all this stuff.
Create classes and mark them with required attributes (I don't remember their exact name,check MSDN)
P.S I just can't believe SQL Server Express is not enough for you )
This is my first question so play nice!!! I've done a search and could only find similar questions relating to .NET 3.5 last year so I thought I'd ask for people's recommendations at this point in time regarding a good web host to use for a small e-commerce website that will run on .NET 4.0 with a SQL Server 2008 back end.
Opinions on hosts seem to change daily as do their offers and the technology that they support so I'd love to hear what people are using at this time and how they're getting on. I generally run everything through GoDaddy but their Shared hosting packages only support SQL Server 2005 at the moment, I called them and to get access to a SQL Server 2008 database you have to go down the Virtual Server route which will cost too much for this project.
Thanks in advance!
I went with WinHost in the end and am now up and running. Setup, at least was faultless. http://www.winhost.com/windows-hosting-plans.aspx
Hey! I've searched high and low for this, and no luck. Is there a way that CRUD methods for a MySQL install (Linux box) be exposed via ADO.NET WCF Data Services? I would really love to leverage this in my WPF app :)
Thank u!
EDIT:
:D I am aware that it's called Windows Communication Foundation, but just thought I'd put it out there and hope that it is possible
The only way to do this would be to use a something like a MySql to linq provider and host the wcf service on a windows server box which connects to the mysql linux box in the usual connection string way.
So you will need windows server as well as the linux one hosting the mysql database, unless you want to move the mysql instance to the same windows box.
Hope this helps.
Edit
Couple of potential links which could help ... here and here
Have a look at the Mono WCF Core stack, this might be better for you.
