Is there a step by step guide to connecting a Drupal website with SQL Azure?

The company is upgrading the Drupal website and the goal is to have a live database by connecting the Drupal SQL database with he SQL Azure database. Does anyone have guide/step by step process for implementing connectivity between Drupal and SQL Azure?

Hi,
Thanks for posting here.
Recommend you to see "
Best Practices for Drupal CMS on Azure Websites " written by Sunitha Muthukrishna which talks about How to migrate existing Drupal site to Azure Websites and Copy database to MySQL in Azure Web Sites
" Mysqldump " tool is one of the preffered approaches to Copy database to MySQL in Windows Azure Web Sites
Here is another document that talks about Migrating Drupal to azure and
Copy the Database which might help.
Hope this helps you.

Hi!
I've been thinking to myself, "I want to make a free website". But I want it passcode protected and free. I am a mac kind of person so is there a way I can make a free passcode protected website with iWeb? I knwo you use to be able to do it with MobileMe, but that's outdated now so could someone please help!

No, you cannot password protect a website with iWeb.
And no, you don't have to be a Mac kind of person either.
So how do they do it?

Step-by-step tutorial/video for ASP Membership/Role Website with SQL CE 4.0?

I'm looking for a step-by-step walkthough, tutorial, or video for setting up a basic ASP membership/role website using SQL Server Compact 4.0 and the NuGet package "ErikEJ.SqlCeMembership". Should I be using this on an empty or basic website?
-BGood

Thanks ErikEJ. I looked at
https://sqlcemembership.codeplex.com/ but got scared off by the comment:
"Breaking news - stop using this library: A Microsoft supplied Provider has been released on Nuget.org, I recommend that you use this going forward, this provider support all SQL Server 2005+ platforms, including SQL
Server Compact 4.0."
So I downloaded the NuGet Universal Provider instead. Is it still OK to use the "ErikEJ.SqlCeMembership 2.1 NuGet package"?
Thanks.

Error deploying data tier application to SQL Azure at "Registering metadata for database" step ... should I care?

I'd like to move an on-premesis SQL Server Database to SQL Azure. I've used SQL Mgmt Studio to Extract Data Tier Application and save my db as a dacpac file. Now I'm connected to my Azure server and I've chosen to Deploy Data Tier Application. I select my
dacpac and the deploy starts but then on the last step "Registering metadata for database" it times out. I've tried it a couple of times and each time the deployed database is there and appears to be fully populated, but I'm not sure if I can ignore
that error and continue. What is supposed to happen in that step, and should I expect it to fail when deploying to SQL Azure?
I'm following the steps here http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh694043.aspx in the Using Migration Tools > Data-tier Application DAC Package section, except that to deploy there's no SQL Mgmt Studio > Object Explorer [server]
> Management >"Data Tier Applications" node, so I'm deploying by right-clicking on the server name and choosing "Deploy Data-tier Application".
My (total) guess here is that it's deployed the database fine and it's doing whatever magic happens when you register a data tier application, except that it's not working for SQL Azure.
I'm running against a server created for the new Azure service tiers, not against a Web/Business edition server.
The full details of error I get are below.
thanks,
Rory

Hello,
The registration process creates a DAC definition that defines the objects in the database, and register the DAC definition in the master system database in Windows Azure SQL Database.
Based on the error message, there is timeout error when connect to SQL Database. Did you deploy a large database? When move large data to Azure SQL Database, it is recommended to use SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) and BCP utility.
Or you can try to create a client application with the Data-Tier Application Framework (DACFx) client tool to import database and handle connection loss it by re-establish the connection.

What workarounds are there for OS X 10.3.9 users on websites with flash?..

What workarounds, kludges are there for users of OS X 10.3.9 encountering websites with the new version of flash?... what alternate ways are there to get the content?

What version of Flash do you have installed? The last version for 10.3 was version 9. If you don't have it, download from http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/10752710
The only other option is to upgrade to Tiger 10.4 and use version 10.

I want to update my IPad's operating system but when I tried to so, I got a message at Itunes advising all my apps would be removed? Is there a step by step guide for doing this update and retaining my apps? I am completely lost....

I want to update my 1st generation IPad which has a current OS of 4.2.1 to the latest 5.0 OS. I tried to do this through my ITunes account but got a warning that continuing would delete my apps, etc. I don't want that to happen! I have ZERO tech ability/know-how and need an idiot-proof, step by step guide to performing the update. Any help most appreciated. I haven't got a clue how to back up anything on the IPad, either.
Many thanks!!

First copy any purchases off the iPad to your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases. You should also backup the device (right-click the iPad 'device' and select 'back up'), and copy off any important documents, files, notes etc (e.g. by email, the file sharing section at the bottom of the Apps tab on your computer's iTunes, via wifi, whatever the apps that you use support) - the update process should backup and restore the content but it's best to be safe.
There is some more info on this page about updating to iOS 5 : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4972

I just replaced my hard drive and am trying to install the Snow Leppard OS on my Mac mini using the DVD's that came with the unit. Is there a step by step procedure that will guide me through this process?

I just replaced my hard drive due to failure in my Mac mini. I am trying to load the Snow Leppard OS from the DVD's that came with the unit. Is there a step-by-step procedure somewhere that would help me? This is my first problem with my first Mac. I thought getting to the hard drive and changing it would be the hard part but I made it through that with little trouble. My lack of software experience on the Mac is really slowing me down. I believe I'm not making the right choices in the Disk Utility program.Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Prep the new drive:
Drive Preparation
1. Boot from your OS X Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
Upon completion quit DU and return to the installer. Install OS X. When the installation has completed you can proceed to restore your data from your backups. If you have an existing backup from Time Machine or another hard drive then upon completing the Setup Assistant you will have an option to restore from another Mac, a TM backup, or another drive. Use the appropriate option.

Is there a step-by-step guide for MOC ?

I'm looking to get a step-by-steo guide as to how my.oracle.com
(MOC) was developed. The "white paper" is just background
material and not what I was looking for. I'm looking for a how-
to ONE-STOP-SHOP guide. This would be the biggest selling point
for Oracle Portal.
Is it out there?

Hi,
I would like to have the step-by-step guide for MOC development, if you got one already.

Is there a step by step guide for getting splash on arch?

hi,
i looked every where for a step by step guide for getting splash on bootup working on arch.
i know if you use archlinux you're suppose to figure out things for youreself, which i handle pritty well i think, but kernel stuff, i am not sure for now, and i dont have time (exams) to break my system so if anyone could point me to a step by step guide, i will thank him.

AFAIK there isn't a way. I tried to get fbsplash working recently without much success.
There were a few rather complicated methods, and I thought the easiest way was to use an initrd image. Obviously, the default kernel already uses one so I recompiled a kernel to have support for an initrd image, but not need to use one. Then I used splashutils to create an initrd image with the splash image contained and booted the kernel using this as an image. Kernel booted, but no splash. I then gave up. I also had to patch the splashutils scripts as they were broken in places. Right at the moment, I don't crave a splash image enough to warrant more hacking.
fbsplash is meant to work without the fbcondecor kernel patch, so I didn't try using it. This may be a path you want to try out.

Is there a step by step guide on upgrading from leopard to lion inlcuding data backup and migration?

is there a step by step guide on upgrading from leopard to lion inlcuding data backup and migration?

Let me just give you the breakdown:
Snow Leopard (10.6) needs to be purchased. You need Snow Leopard because it has the Mac App StoreAlternatively, you could get the Lion USB drive, but much more expensive
Once you have installed Snow Leopard, open the Mac App Store and find OS X Lion. This downloads OS X Lion Installer. After the download finishes, click on it, follow the steps and the installation begins!
No data will be lost during any of the upgrades
Let me know if you have any further questions.

Is there a "step to step" guide for when you're new at Oracle

Hi all,
If just recently made my 1st database and I am stuck what to do next.
I have bought a few books and downloaded lots of information on the internet, maybe too much.
Is there an overview, step by step, what to do to get the database in a working condition, so I am able to make tables, views etc?
At first not too detailed, later I can fill in the blanks.
Thanks in advance
Hein

Is there a step by step guide to transfer licences?

I have a PC that has started having the following message: 'windows detected a hard disk problem. ‘Back up your files immediately to prevent information loss and then contact the computer manufacture to determine if you need to repair or replace the disk.' It is highly likely I will need a new hard disk and if it is sent to the manufacturer it will need to be re set to factory condition. I believe I may lose some registry settings etc.
Since buying the PC I have purchased Adobe Design Premium so if I do end up with a new hard disk or even a new PC - how do I ensure I can transfer the software without any license implications? Some threads have contradictory info about deactivating or not deactivating first - I'd really appreciate a simple step by step guide - would be good if Adobe could issue an authorised one too!
Many thanks in anticipation

Help --> Deactivate in any of the suite apps, then simply instal lthe software on teh new machine. if the activation doesn't work, call support to reset it server side. Nothing more required.

My experience is that you must download the KB files and run them from an elevated command prompt. If you use Windows Update you can get problems with the
