I created a website using Code Ignitor and MySQL and want to upload everything to 000webhost.com
How do I:
upload my models, views and controllers to the public_html folder of 000webhost?
get my MySQL database up and running on 000webhost?
Thanks in advance
I am presuming that your control panel is cPanel. If thats the case then upload all your files in the web root of the server. Create a database, and change that details in database.php inside config folder. thats it, your site will be up and running.
Your .htaccess (at least mod_rewrite for codeigniter) will not work if you use the free 000webhost service (at least the last time i wanted it, the support told me that they doesn't support it... that was thy time i signed up for their free service for private test of scripts i wrote). Another thing is that for the free hosting they use their own control panel (not cPanel), cPanel is for the paid accounts.
Anyway they both offer ftp accounts, mysql databases and of course web ftp (online file manager). All you need is a ftp client (such as FileZilla or even Windows Explorer itself).

I currently have a trial on my GoDaddy account. I created a tester domain and I'm trying to make my website entirely out of HTML (not with GoDaddy website builder). For some reason, it's only letting me add HTML code in certain places on website builder. How do I add HTML files using cpanel to my domain?
As you mentioned you are only trying to use html files, use any free shared website hosting service provider online (Some googling would work). Sign Up, login to the cpanel you will be prompted by the hosting service provider either by E-Mail or on the dashboard when you login the nameservers which are something like 'ns1.hostingprovider.com'.Login to your godaddy dashboard open your domain settings and update the nameservers with the ones your hosting provider gives you.Log on back to your hosting cpanel navigate to add files(html,css, a Readme file is optional) to your domain and wait Boom, and your files can go live within an hour of updating the nameservers on godaddy but sometimes this might take 24-48 hours.
Note - This process is only to know the general process to host files, if you consider hosting larger applications built in Multiple stacks and environments please check other threads when trying to deploy the application.
I need to make a development version of a cakePHP app with its own db so that a developer can work on it without disturbing the current users.
I thought it would be simple, I just copied the entire director /project to /project_dev and then copied the DB "project_db" to "project_db_dev". Then I went into /project_dev/config/database.php and changed the db to "project_db_dev".
When I went to see what I had done, I saw the app was still connecting to the same db, as if I'd changed nothing. I realized that the original folder name was referenced in /app/webroot/.htaccess so do I need to find/replace all instances of that folder name?
What steps should I follow to duplicate an existing cakePHP app?
You need to setup some kind of development lifecycle.
Generally speaking the developer shouldn't be doing any development on the server. The best way to handle it is locally using a stack of some kind such as Lamp (Linux, Apache, Mysql, PHP) switch out linux with other OS's. There are multiple cloud solution to these environments to such as Koding.com
Using something like Git for version control the developer can develop locally then push the code through to the server after is being thoroughly tested locally or on a dev server or some kind.
Keeping Dev work and Live work away from each other is key.
Could do with a bit more information.
If both databases are hosted on the same server and you have permission to access them both with the same user then all you have to do is change the name of the database in your database.php
If not you will also have to update the IP and any other additional settings port etc.

I'm trying to make a simple four page website, all HTML with some CSS and images. This is my first site. After I'm done building the HTML documents, what do I need to upload them and get the site running?
In order to put up a website, you need a web hosting provider. So the first thing you need is a hosting provider. Make sure that your provider offers FTP access to your website. You will need to contact your hosting provider (http://webdesign.about.com/od/webhosting/f/blfaqwebhosting.htm) if you aren't sure.
Once you have a hosting provider, in order to connect by FTP you need some specific information:
your username
password
the host name or URL where you should upload files
your URL or web address (especially if it's different from the host name
You can get this information from your hosting provider if you aren't sure what it is.
Make sure your computer is connected to the internet and that your WiFi is working.
Open an FTP client. As I mentioned above, most computers come with a built-in FTP client, but these tend to be fairly hard to use. It's better to use a visual style editor so you can drag and drop your files from your hard drive to your hosting provider.
Best FTP Clients for Windows
Best FTP Clients for Macintosh
Following the instructions for your client, put in your host name or the URL where you should upload your files.
If you try to connect to your hosting provider, you should be prompted for a username and password. Enter them in.
Switch to the correct directory on your hosting provider.
Select the file or files you want to load onto your website, and drag them to the hosting provider pane in your FTP client.
Visit the website to verify that your files uploaded correctly.
Tips:
Don't forget to transfer images and other multimedia files that are associated with your website, and put them in the correct directories.
It can often be easiest to just select the entire folder and upload all the files and directories at once. Especially if you have fewer than 100 files.

What I need is a web server hosting just for saving large files on it and share it online, so today I downloaded XAMPP Control Panel V3.2.1 as I read on a topic that it can help me.
Actually, I don't have enough knowledge about XAMPP, can I use it to upload files with normal domain(like: www.mydoamin.com/myfile)?, how can I connect the server I build with a domain after purchasing it? and how can I upload files to this domain.
Till now I done all the needed setup, and here's what I get when I start the application:
Also I can use the "MySQL" in the webpage after log-in, and here's how the page looks like:
Is there any recommendation for other application that helps me uploading files to my own domain/server and share it, if this one isn't for these stuff?
XAMPP is software bundle containing cross OS solutions (X) for webserver Apache (A), MySQL database (M), and server-side language PHP (P) and Perl (P).
If you got a domain you need to redirect it to IP on which this XAMPP server works. To do it call/mail your domain registrator (a company that sold you a domain) and ask about it. It involves DNS (Domain Name Server) configuration - ask them how to change DNS to direct it to your XAMPP server.
PS To add files go to htdocs direcotry in your XAMPP instalation or whatever you defined to store files (and websites) and drop your files in there.
As I can see you are not experienced in that kind of things so maybe ask company that sold you a domain name about "shared hosting"? It's preconfigured ready to go server where you send files over FTP
quick question to day. I've done a little digging around on the net and i can't really find a very definitive answer.
Basically, I run my own server on a redundant dual core, 4gb ram 2Tb pc (server1)
And on here, i would like to make an FTP partition. Reason being, i would very much like to be able to transfer files back and forth work, uni and home as i please.
I also run a website from my server which allows me to stream media from my hard drive to any laptop, tablet, desktop, iphone, android.. you name it!
I would LIKE to be able to add a section on my website where by I can log in and access my files as a sort of HTMF5 Front end.
I am aware and know how to create a login with a database which has md5 hash and store cookies to stop un-authorised people accessing my ftp.
Any help or a shove in the right direction would be much appreciated! Thanks in advance :D
Yes it's possible. but that won't be HTML5 ftp server etc that you mentioned.
You can achieve this by installing a web server on your machine like apache and then make directories public - run Apache on some port and you will be able to access the directory. if your server is running on port 8080, URL will be like: domain.com:8080 - You can style directory using this simple script & make this password protected as well using .htaccess .
osFileManager
The other option is to use some php script. Many commercial scripts are available and as well as open source. i recommend you trying osFileManager - it has a lot of features like:
Browse the directory structure
Create files
Upload files
Rename files
Move files
Delete files
Edit files
Change permissions
Change password
Create users
Here is it's installation instructions: http://www.osfilemanager.com/osfilemanager-docs.html
or a paid HTML5 & AJAX based script can be bought for 14$ from here:
