I am currently using mamp pro on osx for local development and I want to mirror my mosso cloud setup as much as possible. has anyone setup an ftp server with their local installation of mamp pro using sites i.e. local.mydev.com through apache?
hope everyone had a great holiday.
Not with MAMP Pro but I've done it with XAMPP. It comes with proftpd which is a good ftp server. If you can switch, you might want to give XAMPP a try.
heres how to do it: http://blog-en.mamp.info/2009/08/how-to-access-ftp-with-mamp.html
found the instructions on Mamps site

I have been tasked with moving someone else's site and work from HP-UX to RedHat since our HP-UX system is going away. I have all the components on the RedHat server in place (apache, MySQL, Ruby, passenger) that were on the HP-UX system. I have apache UP on the Redhat system. I have exported the MySQL DB from HP-UX to the RedHat. I have copied all the directories that hold the app from one server to another.
My issue is trying to NOT get the Welcome to Apache screen on my redhat server but my app. I have the site listed in the site-enabled. I have the Include on the httpd.conf file to include all the sites. I have even tried Include /etc/httpd/sites-enabled/* as well as Include /etc/httpd/sites-enabled/. No difference.
I am not sure where else to go to look from old, old HP-UX Apache to the new, just installed RedHat system.
HP-UX 11.31 running Apache 2.2.9
RedHat 7.1 running Apache 2.4.6
What else do you need to know? Where else do I need to look?
Thanks!
Vince
Sorry can't post comment... have you tried to add
Include /etc/httpd/sites-enabled/*.conf
in the httpd.conf?
note the .conf at the end
Apparently there was a lot more required under the hood. One can not just move an older ruby/rails app to a new version. So instead of fighting this battle due to a versioning issue I am just going to close it out for now.
Thanks for all help.
I am new to Web Development but I have experience in Java, C/C++,Unix Scripting and basic SQL. I have apache-tomcat server because I downloaded Java EE but recently I wanted to start added PHP to my html and I have to download a server like wampp or xampp to run php files. But I downloaded xampp and when I tried to reach my localhost my browser froze up, I tried it multiple times but no luck reaching my local server. Then I decided to try it on wamp and the same thing happened. Can you have two different kinds of servers on your PC even if only one is turned on at a time?
No you can get PHP to run out of a TomCat Web Server.
See this somewhere in the middle of it he tells you how to download a PECL extension that will allow TomCat and the PHP interpreter to become friend.
Im trying to write a blog using PHP,I downloaded Php 5, Notepad++ And Apache Tomecat 7.
The problem is that I dont know where to save the .Php files I wrote so I can open them using the Apache Server.
Can anyone help please?
Thanks in advance.
You don't need Tomcat server that is for Java applications.
You're best bet is to install WAMP (on Windows) or LAMP (on Linux) then you have all the tools including MySQL to start coding. The Apache server comes preconfigured for use with PHP.
If you're coding on Windows then WAMP is a single install package.
There are plenty of tutorials to help you out, but essentially your Apache server will have a web root directory named "www" in it's configuration file. That's where you place all of your php and html files, etc.
[Edit]
Reading some of the comments, the recommendation for WAMP or XAMP for your local development. You can run all this comfortably on a laptop. When it comes to releasing your application to the world you will probably want to pick a Hosting service that supports PHP and will take care of all the server configuration for you. You'll just be copying up your PHP code files and creating the databse.
I have an EC2 instance running with Glassfish Server Open Source Edition.
And now I need to setup the a website in wordpress.
How can I do that ?
I'm looking for 5 minutes installation tutorial but I'm stuck in the part where it's says about the webserver.
I have to install the Apache in Linux then enable the FTP access ? (to upload the wordpress files ? )
For now I'm stuck in this part guys, any tip is very welcome.
Ok. This is going to be a bit of a high level overview of what you need to do. Its a long process which you need to look into.
Glassfish server is (afaik) for Java applications. Wordpress is a PHP/mysql based system.
Apache is a free and open source web server which you can use, which integrates with php and mysql nicely. What you need is called a LAMP setup (LAMP stands for "linux, apache, mysql and php). You haven't specified what your EC2 is running (what linux distro) but lets say its Ubuntu. A quick search for "installing lamp ubuntu" on google turns up many different tutorials and walkthroughs for installing a lamp setup on your machine.
You'll need SSH access (which you'll have with EC2) then if you run through your tutorial of choice you'll have a working web server, you'll specify a public_html directory (usually by default /var/www).
Now to install Wordpress. What you could do is install an FTP server. This is going to be relatively complicated though, however it will be the easiest way to install Wordpress. Install FTP and upload the wordpress files to the public html directory, then you will be able to run through the 5 minute install process using the mysql database credentials you set up in the LAMP tutorial.
An easier way to do what you need to do is to install subversion on your EC2 instance - e.g. sudo apt-get install subversion on ubuntu. That way you can svn export the wordpress repository to your public html folder (http://codex.wordpress.org/Installing/Updating_WordPress_with_Subversion).
However, without an FTP server running on your EC2 instance you won't be able to FTP in to modify files or anything. You'll have to do everything over SSH (or SFTP) which may or may not be manageable for you.
In all honesty, and with the utmost respect, if you don't know about apache and installing a LAMP server and such then you're probably a bit out of your depth with Amazon's EC2 server. You'd be better off with a dedicated server from a hosting company who will have installed everything you need.
I am currently using XAMPP to test and Run my website on my Laptop.
Is there any (Good,Production Grade,Free,AMP based) server software?
Or Can I manually fix the security holes in XAMPP (like no password for 'root') to bring it up to production level?
Platform : Windows
Technologies: Apache, MySQL, PHP
Requirements: Hosting on Own server
Priveleges: Easy installation and configuration
You're best off just setting things up yourself. It's not that difficult, especially since there are scores and scores of guides around the web. Trying to bring XAMPP up to production quality would be just as much work. Here are some links:
Ubuntu LAMP
Debian LAMP
Fedora LAMP
Arch Linux LAMP
WAMP (Windows)
You can easily find more by doing a Google search.
Why not simply use official Apache? It's the most-used Production http server in the world.
Can you expand your question with details on your platform and requirements?
You would be better off configuring the full stack yourself. This ensures that you know what's running, and how it's configured. Even if you use a bundle (I highly recommend Zend Server if you do), you would need to run through the service configurations anyway. Never rely on anything out-of-box in a production environment.
If you do configure the stack yourself, Google is your friend, and there are plenty of resources here to help as well.
