Changing the Testing Server

I have a MySql database on my Mac and I'm using Dreamweaver CS5 to generate dynamic content in PHP.
For the Site Definitions, I have Dreamweaver configured this way:
- Local Site Folder: users/bronzino1/mysite
- Testing Server Folder: Applications/MAMP/htdocs/mysite_test
- Testing Server Web URL: http://localhost/mysite_test
Here is what I am not understanding: Every time I go to test the live code on a page, it is saved to "mysite_test." If I just save the page without testing the live code, it gets saved to "mysite." I don't need two copies of every file on my machine, and I'm worried about what's going to happen when I try to test pages with pictures (which are all saved to "mysite" not "mysite_test").
Is there anyway to make my Local Site folder THE Testing Server Folder?
Thanks in advance for any help!
Elizabeth
PS - Did search the forum for an answer but I just found the same question, and some crickets.

Hmm, I guees it´s better if you´d post your issues in the regular Dreamweaver Application Development forum, because I fear I can´t be of help with this, as I´m using a Windows machine and am not familiar with how such things works on a Mac.
I´m also somewhat confused about the "It is a set location proximate to applications, rather than with the rest of my data" scenario you´re describing -- in my world the traditional scenario is this:
- the "Local Site Folder" is always an absolute path and points to, say, "C:\wampserver\htdocs\whateverfolder\"
- the "Testing Server Folder" points to the very same directory
- the "Testing Server Web URL" would normally be "http://localhost/whateverfolder/", but could be different in case you´re configured the Apache Server (and your System) to rather use Virtual Hosts
It seems as if you´re explicitely tell Dreamweaver to use different physical directories (mysite vs. mysite_test), and I don´t know if this is really supported at all.
Cheers,
Günter

How do I stop Dreamweaver from updating the Test server copy of a file when I open the local file?

The subject says it all. Every time I open a file, Dreamweaver connects to the testing server and uploads the local file to the test server.
I want to stop this behaviour. It's annoying!

My testing server is IIS running on my local machine.
The "local" copy of the file is actually on a remote share. I have the test server copy open in Notepad++. The two files are identical save for on extra line in the copy on the testing server. When I open the "local" copy in Dreamweaver, it shows me that some file activity is being done, and then Notepad++ tells me the file has changed and do I want to reload it. If I do, that extra line vanishes.
When I check the file activity log, it shows that the file activity is complete.
I haven't mentioned the production server because it doesn't seem to be affected, but we do have one.

I am having difficulty correcting the Testing Server setup in Dreamweaver CS4.

The http error codes are 404 (open DW) and 12150 (failed test URL).

Please see my responses inline below:

I thank you for your help but I don't understand.
1. At this time, I edit the web site locally. When the changes are completed, then I copy the files to the remote (Go Daddy) server, with FTP.
Perfect. In that case, I'm not even going to try to change you to use Dreamweaver's in-built FTP as that will probably confuse you at this stage. In this case, go to 'Remote Info' and make it 'None' - remove all credentials from there - we dont need it configured within Dreamweaver if we aren't using it.
2. Because my edits are local, testing of the files is local. In fact, I normally disable the network connection, when I don't need it open.
Go to 'Testing Server' and make it 'None' and remove all credentials - make it blank too. Since you're not using any 'dynamic' services, we don't need to configure one. Your previews can happen via your browser from your 'Local files'.
3. Go Daddy uses PHP on Linux servers for hosting.
Well, Go Daddy also gives you a variety of other options - but I'm assuming you've purchased a Linux hosting setup with PHP running on it. Let's not worry about PHP here because you're not using PHP to develop your website.
4. Since I'm not adept with computers, computer terminology and computer configurations, I try to leave settings at default.
The only thing you'll need to keep 'as is' is your 'Local Info'. Other than that, remove both 'Testing' and 'Remote' configurations. You should get going in no time.
5. I am unsure of the test server requirement. The descriptions of a "dynamic" page are not clear, to me. My web site uses,
     a. html,
     b. An XML data page for sorting my photographs,
     c. Spry cascading tables,
     d. Scrolling photo thumbnails,
     e. Links to pdf files and
     f. E-mail contact.
A regular HTML website is usually 'static' - as all the content you have within it is 'hard-coded' or 'hand-written' into it. A PHP/ ASP/ JSP/ CFM code is usually 'dynamic' - meaning only the master template is usually made with code. The actual content is fetched from a database or an external source. And to do this (to fetch data from a database), this type of code has to run on a server-environment. That is the only primary difference between 'static' and 'dynamic' webpages. Not getting into the details of it as I'm unsure if that's going to confuse you more!
If this is not clear, please see me web site.

Putting files onto the remote server vs. the testing server

I have a testing server defined in my site that can only be accessed internally within the company. When I preview my pages, it automatically loads them onto the testing server and when I ask opinions about the changes I have made, my co-workers can go to that web address on our internal FTP site.
But when I want to take those same files and put them onto our live site, I can't figure out how. I also connect to that site through FTP and have defined it in the remote server location. How do I put these files onto our real, live website?
I've been reading tons of help topics about this, but still can't seem to figure it out

Hi There:
It is an easy step by step do that. Here are some really good help for you on the same:

And by the way why can't your colleagues see your site internally? if you have a testing server (is it IIS or WAMP?) ...all you need to give them is something as following so that they can view it..

or

I believe you all are on the same network at workplace.

Pragmatically change the DNS server

I have been trying to figure out how to write a program to change the DNS server, like you can in the control panel. I have played with Resolv.conf and a whole bunch of low level APIs.
From the terminal window, things like nslookup work (use the right dns server) but Safari doesn't. It still is using the original DNS server. I can stop and start safari and go to web pages it has not visited before and it still uses the old DNS server, so its not just pulling up cached pages.
It seems the low-level API stuff doesn't work for higher level applications like Safari (its the only high level app I know of that uses DNS to test with).
What is the API to use to change the DNS server address such that everyone,, like safari, will use the new DNS address?

Yeah, but I am changing all the DHCP entries in the system and it still gets out. However, it is solved by updating the system config. I was just curious as to where it got its DHCP server info from when the system config was blank and resolv.conf was set to my DHCP server.

File not found: includes/common/lib/file_upload/KT_FileUpload.asp Please upload the includes/ folder to the testing server.

The cooperative I am a part of have a homepage made with Dreamweaver several years ago. Suddenly some of the pages stopped working with this error message:
File not found:
includes/common/lib/file_upload/KT_FileUpload.asp
Please upload the includes/ folder to the testing server.
I checked, and the file is actually missing from the web server. Do i need to purchase Dreamweaver to download this file, and is this a path worth pursuing?
Dreamweaver version: I don't know which or how to check this, could check if given the proper instructions.

The page that you have shown uses one of the InterAkt extensions for Dreamweaver. Unfortunately, InterAkt was bought out by Adobe who in turn did nothing with it. The latest version was about 5 years ago and was called ADDT.
Maybe someone here can help you Friends of Interakt: Home Page

Can I change the smtp server with Yahoo push account?

My yahoo email account will send and receive over EDGE using the default yahoo mail settings. On my home Cox internet WiFi network I can retrieve messages but cannot send. When sending it says it was sent and makes the "swooshing" mail sent sound, but the message disappears. It does not appear in the "sent" folder or "drafts" folder either. No error message is returned.
I suspect this is related to Cox blocking the smtp server, but the iPhone does not allow me to change the smtp settings on the default yahoo account. Does anyone know how to do this? I can set it up manually for POP access, but then I'm flooded with spam.

No, you cannot change the SMTP server on the Yahoo push account.
Yahoo push only works if you configure your account using the Yahoo! Mail shortcut on the iPhone, and that shortcut does not allow for ANY customization.

Can't create bin automatically in the testing server

Dear Gurus,
I am having this problem:
In the server for configuration, I create new warehouse and do all the settings, then when I run SPRO > IMG or use t-code LS10, I can test to create storage bins automatically successfully.
However, in the server for testing, after transporting all the settings for new warehouse, I use LS10 to create storage bins (since we can't transport master data), but the system (in testing server) says that I am not allowed to make (configuration) modification. The button "Create Bins" therefore gray out.
Question:
LS10 supposed to be a transaction to create master data. How come the testing server treat it as a configuration and not allow me to create bins automatically? Is this the error from MM side or Basis side (my profile is SAP_ALL)?
We don't want to create manually since there are thousands of bins, also we don't want to create an excel file and upload using LSMW because we already have formula and just want to create bins automatically.
Please advise. Thanks.
Trang

Hi
The transaction form createing the template of the bins and subsequently creating the bins is config.
I get round this by doing a recording of LS01N in LSMW and then using this to create my bins in ALL clienst by exporting and importing my LSMW
This also means that I can create any bins with any numbering sequece in one spreadsheet and load them all in one
In one of my recent projects I used this method to create 80,000+ bins in approx 30 minutes
Of course you need to know how to create the LSMW but a developer may be able to help you as it is too long to explain in this forum
I hope that this helps

BOL says : Only the account under which the SQL Server service account runs is granted NTFS permissions to the FILESTREAM container.So, if you start SQL Server under different account , that account wil have access to use fliestream data (read / write)
At the database level ,If a user has permission to the FILESTREAM column in a table, the user can open the associated files..

I just wanted to know will there be any major impact in the current chagnes.
kindly advice.
Thanks,

How to change the web server??

How to change the web server in the details of the mobile application component in the MI webconsole??

hello irene,
had your tried checking on the "Use IP instead of host
name" checkbox?
to edit your registered application info, go to
"Upload Mobile Component" tab and click on the Edit icon
on the left part of the record list which corresponds to
the application you had just uploaded.
your application is uploaded to the same host as your
web console application is running on. if you like to
point it to a different server where you have your
archive accessible, you have to change your mcd
deployment attributes on your middleware. try the ff:
1)run tcode: mi_mcd
2)click on Create Mobile Component
3)Enter Mobile Solution Name and Version
4)Click on Display MCD
5)Select Deployment Tab
6)Click on Edit
7)Change the values of WEBSERVER and WEBPATH location eg.
if your archive is located at
http://myotherserver:80/archive/myapplication.war
your entry will be:
WEBSERVER: http://myotherserver:80
WEBPATH: /archive/myapplication.war
where you myotherserver is the name of your http host
server and myapplication.war is the name of your archive.
the archive directory is just a virtual directory where
your application archive is.
you might need to change the port number depending on
your http server port.

I've set up the *&*%$ testing server - now can I please add a recordset?

I run into this problem occasionally with DW. I set up an asp
site using aspVBscript. When I go to add server behaviors the
application box has the first two item s ticked (Create a site for
this file, and Choose a document type) but the third, "Set up the
site's testing server" is not, yet I have set up the testing server
(several times). It is the same testing server settings I use on
several of my other sites and they are fine. Why could DW be
insisting I have not set this up? I've tried closing down the app
and restarting, but it still thinks I have not entered the testing
server settings for the site and so won't let me add server
behaviors.
Anybody have any ideas why this is happening and what I could
do to fix?
BTW i'm using Dreamweaver CS3 on a windows XP pro SP2
machine. Windows 2003 IIS 6.0 server is where the site
resides.

What happens when you browse to
http://localhost?
What happens when you browse to your site prefix as specified
in the testing
server setup?

Change the Exchange server name in outlook

Hello All,
Configured two Exchange server 2010. Both server have Mailbox, CAS and HUB installed. All the user use outlook (Exchange Client). All outlook configured with exchange server host name not mapi name. Now i need to change the exchange server name in outlook.
Is there any procedure to change the Exchange server name for outlook automatically. Please suggest.
Thanks

Hi,
Let’s begin with the partition named when RPC endpoint Changes in the following article:
http://blogs.technet.com/b/aljackie/archive/2013/11/14/outlook-rpc-end-point-and-pf-the-microsoft-exchange-administrator-has-made-a-change-that-requires-you-quit-and-restart-outlook.aspx
“To add further on the cas array, the Outlook clients with an existing Outlook profile would continue to use the old RPC endpoint rather than the new RPC endpoint (even though Autodiscover detected the change). This is because the old RPC endpoint does not
return an ecWrongServer response to the client. The RPC endpoint accepts the connection; therefore, Outlook ignores the Autodiscover response because it has a working connection.”
In this case, except with recreating a profile, we can move mailboxes to force the Outlook client to do a profile discovery and update the profile based on new information.
For more information about moving mailboxes, please refer to the following article:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb124495(v=exchg.141).aspx
If you have any question, please feel free to let me know.

Can we change the test scripts in TCK (JavaCard tests for compatibility)

Hi everyone,
I would appreciate if anyone can tell me if we can change the test scripts when testing JavaCards using TCK. Lets say we want to introduce few more APDU's to the test script which already is present in a precompiled format. Can we somehow add to the script and then compile it again.
Any help would be highly appreciated.
Thanks,
AQ

Read the JC-TCK documentation:
JC2 Some Conformance Tests may have properties that may be changed.Properties that
can be changed are identified in the TCK configuration interview. Apart from
changing such properties and other allowed modifications described in this Users
Guide (if any), no source or binary code for a Conformance Test may be altered in
any way without prior written permission. Any such allowed alterations to the

Collaboration Server - changing the SMTP server info

We have installed the collab server. However the SMTP server info specified during the install, was incorrect. I need to change the SMTP server name. Is this configurable through any config file setting or do I need to re-install collab erver.
Any help on this would be appreciated.
Thanks.
Vanita

Vanita -
What version of Collab are you using? The SMTP notification settings are all accessible without re-installing. I am looking at a 3.0 Collab install and the settings are all in the plumtree\ptnotification\3.0\settings\config\config.xml file.
Hope this helps.
