How do I setup a php testing server that connects to my web host?

My web host (webhostingpad.com) has php on it. I need to setup a testing server that connects to this so I can test my site locally.
My questions are:
1. Do I set this up as a local network connection or an sftp (same as my remote)?
2. what information do I put in to make this work?

1024MB is enough to have 2 instances but You have to know what are going to be the requirements levels of those instances in order to check if your memory is enough.
The memory is a theme that relate Oracle SGA with RAM in the machine.
To have a second database server you have to make another installation in a different Oracle Home.
It is not the same to have 2 instances than 2 Oracle database servers.
Do you know what is the difference ?

  • How do I setup my Airport Extreme so that I can extend the coverage of my existing AT&T wifi network?

    How do I setup my Airport Extreme so that I can extend the coverage of my existing AT&T wifi network?

    Start by establishing a permanent fixed Ethernet cable connection from one of the available LAN <-> ports on the ATT modem/router to the WAN "O" port on the AirPort Extreme.
    Ethernet cabling can be run up to 300+ feet or 100 meters, so you should be able to locate the AirPort Extreme exactly where it will be needed to provide more wireless signal coverage.
    Configure the AirPort Extreme to "create" a wireless network using exactly the same wireless network name, same wireless security setting, and same wireless network password that the ATT wireless is using.
    The final step is to insure that the AirPort Extreme is configured to operate in Bridge Mode, so it will work correctly with the ATT modem/router.
    If you need more specific steps, we need to know what operating system you are using on your Mac or PC. If you have a Mac and do not know which operating system it is using.....click the Apple icon in the upper left corner of the screen and then click About This Mac, and post back with the OS X version number that you see there.

  • Hello! How can i setup and what to enable that my secretary has my shared calendar on her Iphone and that she can edit it? We are on Exchange 2010, Outlook 2010, Iphone 4s. Can it be done through some app? Thank you!

    Hello! How can i setup and what to enable that my secretary has my shared calendar on her Iphone and that she can edit it? We are on Exchange 2010, Outlook 2010, Iphone 4s. Can it be done through some app? Thank you! I'm trying to avoid creating my exchange activesync account on her Iphone and then sync only my calendar.

    Thank you for your time. I'm trying to avoid that because she can then simply turn on mail syncronization and then she could read my mail. Another reason is our password policy, that enforces changing our windows logon password every 90 days. Of course changing windows logon passwords demands changing exchange account logon info (password) on Iphone. I have read somwhere that there was an app but it was removed from app store. Any other suggestions would be appreciated.

  • How to setup the local testing server ??

    Where should I download the correct version of mySQL because
    I need to test my php scripts locally which has something to do

    How do I configure these on the testing server setup
    Connection Name - what should I input here?
    MySQL Server - and this?
    Username - where do I get one?
    Password - where do I get one?
    Database - gets an error saying "HTTP error code 404...
    1) There is no testing server running on the server machine.
    2)The testing server specified for this site does not map to

    I have never heard of apache2triad, but I've just had a look
    at the
    apache2triad site, which says: "It is recommended that only
    experienced
    users, with a vast knowledge of how networks, and its
    components (Apache
    Web Server, ect.) should install this software. It IS NOT
    your average
    software; a lot of time, patience and effort are required to
    maintain
    such a server."
    Setting up a local testing server is not difficult, but it
    does require
    a basic understanding of how a server-side language like PHP
    works.
    As I said before, you must always store your files in the web
    server
    document root. According to the apache2triad documentation,
    this is C:
    \apache2triad\htdocs\. Unless you store your files there, or
    in a
    subfolder of htdocs, nothing will work.
    ---LOCAL INFO----
    Site Name: login
    Local Root folder: C:\apache2triad\htdocs\login

  • Setting up Dreamweaver CS4 with PHP testing server... Live View doesnt work

    Hello,
    Im trying to setup Dreamweaver CS4 with a php website im
    making. Ive setup the site information, and provided a testing site
    (XAMPP), and i can see the fully rendered .php pages in the Live
    View tab. However, say i change some of the text in the .php file
    (say from <p>Hello</p> to <p>Hi</p>) and
    then click in the Live View tab - the page does not update. It
    seems to do something, bit just returns the same.
    How do i set it up so, like with plain .html pages, you can
    make a change to the source code and instantly see the change in
    Live View?
    (At the moment i have to make the change to the source code,
    save it, click Live View to cancel it, and then click Live View
    again).
    Background:
    Ive setup XAMPP (G:\XAMPP\)
    Ive setup vhosts in apache.
    Ive stored my websites in G:\Websites
    Ive set the testing server to G:\Websites\site, where "site"
    is setup as a vhost and correctly displays when entered into a
    browser.
    Ive set the url prefix to
    http://site/
    Ive set local root to G:\Websites\site
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Cheers.

    Did you try using F5 to refresh the page? If that doesn't
    work for you,
    then you'll have to drop and restart Live view. No need to
    save and reload
    the page.

  • Browsers won't open some php testing server files

    Running DW 8, OS 10.4.10, Apache virtual testing server with
    php local site.
    I've Firefox and Safari as primary and secondary browsers.
    When working on a
    page, if I select 'preview in primary browser', Firefox opens
    the page with
    my virtual url...no problem. Lately, some php files will not
    open. Firefos
    give a dialog to open the file in default (DW) or save to
    disk. This is very
    frustrating since one file it does this to is a login page.
    Safari does the
    same thing!
    I have select the file in question in the finder (extension:
    ,php) and
    through the Get Info and told Mac OS to open this file with
    Firefox and all
    .php extensions. Rebuilt prebinding so all php files in the
    Finder show a
    Firefox icon, but still neither Firefox nor Safari will open
    them. They
    don't recognize the
    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;
    charset=ISO-8859-1" />
    Metatag. The really frustrating thing is that only some files
    behave this
    way. Most of the others work fine and I can't see anything in
    the headers
    that would cause one to open and not another. Has anyone ever
    run across the
    behavior before and if so, what was the cause?
    Thanks,

    True, I'm running Apache 1.3, but I'm leery of trying to
    upgrade to a newer
    version for fear of messing up everything that already works.
    Had a real
    headache getting MySQL 5, PHP 5 and phpMyAdmin all up and
    running with DW 8.
    Fortunately I had David Powers book that gave pretty much
    idiot proof
    instructions on how to install all this stuff. I'd never been
    able to do it
    left to my own devices. Another caveat is that my webhost,
    like most, is
    behind the upgrade curve: they run MySQL 4.1 and phpMyAdmin
    2,8 so if I
    upgrade too much there may be compatibility issues.
    Another oddity, renaming that file from .php to .html
    extension causes it
    to open fine in Firefox and Safari. I don't think it's kosher
    to keep it
    that way since it does contain DW8's login php scripts.
    Again, there's no
    problem with other .php files.

  • How do you set up a Testing Server?

    My Local and Remote settings have been working fine for years but
    now I have the need to set up a Testing Server and I'm not sure
    what to enter in the fields when editing my site. Attached are
    my settings for Local, Remote and Testing. When I published to
    the Testing Server this morning  overwrote the Remote Server
    and had to ask fat cow to restore my original site. Please advise.
    Thanks.

    Your website is at http://bigcowmusic.com/. You want to use http://bigcowmusic.com/testing/ as your testing server.
    Create a folder called testing in your site root.
    In the Testing Server category of your site definition, set Host directory to point at the testing folder. Since you left that field blank before, it suggests that leaving it blank points to the site root. So enter "testing/" (without the quotes) into that field.
    Set the URL prefix for the testing server to http://bigcowmusic.com/testing/.
    To test that it's working, create a file in the testing folder, and make sure that you give it a name that doesn't already exist in your site (this will avoid overwriting a live page if anything goes wrong). Test it within Dreamweaver. Then go to your live site, and see if the page exists in the testing folder. If it is, you're set to go.

  • How and what to configure in the server configuration files of Tomcat Web ?

    Hi,
    I am using TCP/IP socket connection pooling in my project. For pooling I have written code, I want once the tomcat webserver starts there should be at least 10 instances of connections to be created in the pool. Could any one please tell me how do I do this in the server configuration files (server.xml or web.xml).
    Thanks in Adv.
    JitDev2009

    Take note: the mbaworld.com site has its Tomcat setup/environment poorly configured that the documentation which came along with Tomcat setup became indexed by Google. It has further completely nothing to do with Tomcat itself. Please refer Tomcat's own homepage at [http://tomcat.apache.org] for the documentation.

    Does any body knows how can i write simple proxy

    If you want to see traffic without being in the middle (the requests go direct) then you can not use the standard Java API. And do so in any situation of course requires that you be in the physical connection in the first place (ie in a star network with a router in the middle a client machine will not see packets from other machines.)

    I can resolve host name, so it looks like DNS works:
    If I typed: <IP address> or localhost or localhostname.local or hostname I stiil get the default OS X web page with services, but no service is available not I can't connect to FCS web start page.
    I didn't change DNS records - it is default as it was after installation of system and FCs.

  • Need details on how to move existing website to Dreamweaver CS6 and to Business Catalyst web hosting

    Hi All,
         I need assistance with transferring an existing website  - imagessays.com  -  (designed with Dreamweaver CS4) to my Creative Cloud CS6 account - and to web hosting by CS6 Business Catalyst.
       …  step-by-step instructions would be most useful.  I've got the Dreamweaver CS6 onDemand book, etc.,  ...  I guess I’m just not enough of a geek to work my way through the steps and to get my site back moving ahead online.
        Beyond that, need advice as to how to repair a couple of non-funcitonal links on the site (check out imagessays.com to see a couple of pics that don't work).  I'm looking forward to uploading more content and to do major upgrade to the site, but am unable to do so ... need technical support re how to do these simple (should be) things.
        Since setting up the website over 5 years ago, I have migrated from Dreamweaver CS3 to CS4 .... and now to CS6 ...  and from a Dell XPS 450 running Windows XP to a Mac Pro desktop running Mac OS X.
    These changes of version / machine / OS  have separated me from the ability to do the one simple thing that I need to do with this straightforward website, that is:  upload new pitchers and writins .
    I look forward to assistance and support for this.
    Thanks,

  • How to set up a PHP/mySQL "server" in arch?

    Hi,
    I know its a wide question, and i may have to go to different howtos and such, but as this distro is different from the others there might be some differences in that.
    If i want to run a PHP based site in mozilla and the site is hosted in my machine, do i need to do something real strange to make it work ?

  • How do you setup a Mac Mini Server online? eg: no linked screen

    I was told in a Mac Store you can set up a Mac Mini Server online. So no need to have a screen connected.
    There's nothing in the paperwork that comes with it to say how to do so if you can. I have an iMac setup right next to it for going online or screen sharing etc.
    Have I been misinformed or am I just being slow?!
    Thanks in advance

    Bit late now as I have the screen, but out of interest how do you boot in FireWire Target Disk Mode with no screen?
    Thanks
    Second Mac is running 10.6.8 though.
    You would have to plug a keyboard in to the Mac mini but would not need to connect a mouse or screen. You then hold down Command-T on the keyboard after turning the Mac mini on and before it boots. Keep those keys held down for about 10 seconds - that should be long enough. If you had a screen connected you would then be seeing the special FireWire symbol bouncing around the screen. This means the Mac is in FireWire Target Disk mode and is effectively a glorified external hard disk.
    The fact the second Mac is itself running 10.6.8 is not important. As long as it can boot in to Lion it will be able to boot from the Mac mini which is acting as an external hard disk. On this second Mac you would plug a FireWire cable from the Mac mini. Then you would hold down the Option key and start the second Mac up. After a few seconds you should see it is in a new different mode which should list all the different bootable disks it can find, including the Mac mini which remember is acting as an external hard disk. You would then select the Mac mini disk to boot from.
