I loaded up the Nitrous.io desktop sync app and then installed the mean.io stack on my box. For some reason I can't get any of the files to sync with my desktop. My keys are working fine, but there are no files syncing. There doesn't seem to be a lot of info in the docs on why this could be happening.
The key thing is mentioned in the Nitrous.io docs in this line:
"...the content within your ~/workspace/ folder will be synced into the newly created Nitrous folder once enabled."
This apparently means ONLY the stuff inside workspace (which is not root, so somewhat confusing) will be synced. So, a key missing step is that if you do anything outside the workspace folder, IT WILL NOT BE SYNCED. This includes installing frameworks or other software via the command line. You have to cd into the ~/workspace folder before installing anything or it won't be synced. Seems like a small thing to miss but it makes a big difference when nothing gets pulled down.
In the command line, type this before you install anything like node, bower, etc.
cd ~/workspace

I'm running Linux Mint. My existing projects are located at the /var/www/* folders. But when I'm trying to create a new project then the PhpStorm's file browser is not showing me that folder at all. Like there is just no /var/www folder, but I know it is there and is having a full access permissions (0777).
In addition it shows for example a folder /var/data/JetBrains which is not actually available in my system (terminal: cd /var/data - no such file or directory).
So it seems like it is showing some kind of its own /var folder (virtualized?), not the one that is actually in my system. How can I solve this problem, how can I make it so it use my system's /var folder?
Solved. Do not install the PhpStorm from the Mint's software manager. It comes there in some kind of wrapper that isolates the filesystem.
I moved the complete yii2 installation from one server to another with the help of FileZilla. Sadly, Filezilla don't keep the file permissions by default, and now I'm facing issues with file / directory permissions. I would like to know what's the file permissions for different directories and files in the yii2 directory hierarchy.
You should not transfer the project this way.
Currently it's the era of version control (especially Git) and Composer.
Once you created you project locally and put it under version control, you push it to your main repository and then deploy it to production server.
No need to use Filezilla or something like that.
If your hoster limits you in that, it's better to switch to another one.
In your current situation comparing and setting permissions manually can be very tidious, some of the permissions are set during init command.
So I recommend to deploy it again using version control and Composer instead of struggling with manual permissions setting.
But just in case, I checked production server, most of the folder permissions are 0755, for files - 0644. Folders like runtime, assets have 0777 permissions and set with init command as I mentioned above.
Locally I use Vagrant and pretty much everything here has 0777 permission.
I have my site up and running, but because of number of changes, i decided to publish an updated version. Before doing so i have made backup of my files and databases on the host, just in case.
Now this is what i did: Publish Nop.Web used FTP, configuration is set to release and from file publish options checked Delete all existing files prior to publish, as i was publishing to the same folder wwwroot. After publish was completed NopCommerce installation appeared (btw i would like to use the same db i used before) even tho settings.txt from the project I was publishing had the correct string path. I tried 2-3 times to pass the installation with no success (error: One or more sequence... something like that), checked settings.txt on the host and it was empty (no idea why), but i just edited it with the string path.
Now installation is gone i have my site running again with all the products and user information (i assume that means string path to db is good), but my theme is reseted to default, like all my changes to it (footer links, background, logo, favicon..etc etc) only thing that stayed as it should was the nivo slider widget that has the correct pictures displaying on this 'reseted' theme.
Checked General settings for theme settings if its the correct theme selected.
Also i have noticed this, i assume with those 2-3 unsuccesful install tried i have made some changes in db

Any suggestions how to sort this whole thing, before publishing i was running my site locally and it was good, i have backups of db and files(ones that i used before this publish)
I am using Nop version 3.4 and arvixe hosting. Sorry for my long post but i wanted to describe my steps and error as detailed as possible.
Thanks for reading and looking forward for your suggestions about this.
I haven't tried publishing features of NopCommerce version > 3.10, but you can try a more "manual" approach to make sure that files are properly updated on the server.
In short, you get files from your local machine which are needed for the built website and you upload them to your website folder on the server. You can make a backup and empty the server website folder first.
I presented that approach in this answer:
How to deploy nopCommerce 3.5 to new server from source?
You can check this batch script to see which files need to be sent to the server. The script also includes some suggestions about what else you may need to do to update the website on the server: https://gist.github.com/dan-mirescu/c14cc72e3f8ecca988b7
For Publishing the NopCommerce Application website below is the step:
Step : 1 - Publish the Nop.Web project.
Step : 2 - Publish the Nop.Admin project.
Go to the publish folder where your publish created
Step : 3 - Cut all dll from the Administration and Paste all dll to bin folder which in main bin folder for whole project
Step : 4 - Copy two things from your source project and in App_Data folder Settings.txt and InstalledPlugins.txt which is not published in your publish file so paste this two files in your publish folder in App_Data. (You need to change the connection string in Setting.txt as per your database host).
Step : 5 - Now you need to copy whole plugins folder from your source folder (but remember this plugins folder you need to copy from the Presentation folder not from the main source where the solution file are there.).
Step : 6 - Now your publish have been ready.(now you can deploy on hosting server)
I ran into a problem creating a new project in Cocos2d-x 3.1.1 (or 3.0 - it happens at both versions).
When I'm running the build script in console (Windows 8 - console with admin privileges) an WindowsError pops up (check the image below).
http://i.imgur.com/Ixg4jEE.png
I can set up the COCOS_CONSOLE_ROOT manually, but it does not help with the Error 5.
I tried setting the 777 priviligies an all cocos2d-x folder and subfolders, but it does not help.
Anybody had the same problem? Any solutions out there?
On Windows you should not put manually installed programs and tools under C:\Program... (english: C:\Program Files) because that's a folder where only apps with a proper installer should go. Otherwise you will keep having permission issues. Apps are not allowed to write to that folder or any of its subfolders.
Since cocos2d-x isn't an app, it can't redirect its output to the proper AppplicationData folder as is mandated by the operating system. Not being able to write or modify the program folder's contents (except during installation) is a security feature in Windows that you can't (or shouldn't) bypass.
To fix this simply extract cocos2d-x in a folder that both you and apps have full read/write permission. Normally this would be in your Documents folder, but Desktop would also work and probably just any folder on a drive that you created, for instance C:\cocos2d-x.
Due to this line:
_winreg.SetValueEx() ...
the actual problem looks like to be with registry access, rather than with file permissions.
Make sure you actually running console as an admin, by:
searching cmd in Windows search, or just creating a shortcut to it to desktop
right clicking to cmd.exe and choosing "Run as administrator"
Make sure you don't have registry access block in any way: like blocking in group policies, some "security optimization" software and viruses and antiviruses.
Make sure your python version is 2.x. Python 3.x is not supported.
Anyway, this 'setup.py' step is optional for using cocos2d-x and you can live without running it at all.
I am trying out Nitrous.io -- it is a very nice tool. I am also using Nitrous' Mac application which syncs box content to a local directory -- except I have noticed that it doesn't sync the .git directory. I assume this is intentional(?). Is there a list someplace that describes what is and what is not synced?
You can update the file <home dir>\Nitrous\<box name>\.unison\default.prf and add any configuration there per the manual: http://www.cis.upenn.edu/~bcpierce/unison/download/releases/stable/unison-manual.html
Mine contains this line, for example:
ignore=Name node_modules
This way my node_modules folder is not synced in either direction.
You could add this line to yours:
ignorenot=Name .git
As #ajhit406 noted though, you should handle your git actions in one place (the box, in this case).
The .git directory is not synced on purpose. You should be SSH'ing into your box to manage your git repositories.
In the Mac application shortcut menu, hover over the box you want to SSH into, and click "Open Shell". You should enter any git commands from your box in the cloud.
Nitrous has a resource about this: http://help.nitrous.io/nitrous-desktop/
In the document it details that these are the files and directories that aren't synced:
.unison
.git
.svn
.hg
CVS
.DS_Store
.AppleDouble
.LSOverride
.Spotlight-V100
.Trashes
*.sock
*.sw?
._* , *~
