Testing Server Setup Re: Webmatrix and Wordpress

I am new to Wordpress so what I did was to setup up everything through Microsoft Webmatrix. Everything installed find for my Local Host Server. As long as I load up the Webmatrix program first I can put the "localhost" adress in my browser and my Wordpress theme will load up fine.
The next step I did was to try to edit my theme via Dreamweaver CS5. I followed all the Adobe on-line instructions for setting everything up. Nevertheless when I press the live view button Dreamweaver keeps asking for the Texting Server which I thought I already had setup. I pointed the "testing server" folder to the same folder as Wordpress (where the theme is also located via "My Websites."
Everything else seems to work and I followed all the instructions given by Adobe. See:
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/dreamweaver/articles/setup_testing_server.html
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/dreamweaver/articles/dw_wordpress_pt2.html#wordpress
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/dreamweaver/cs/using/WSc78c5058ca073340dcda9110b1f693f21-79e0a .html
Nevertheless when I press the Live View button Dreamweaver keeps begging for the teasting server. I have the "server model" set to PHP MySQL.
Thanks for your help.

Go to the "Site" menu > 3rd down "manage sites"> pick your site and click the edit button
Click the "Servers" tab on the left, this displays the sites you have, sellect your site and click the testing server check box.
When you press F8 make sure you press the testing server button to log onto your site.
Sorry about the French interface, Quebec laws!
Hope this resolves your issue!
PS: you'll have to add a seperate entry for the live server in order to keep things seperated for Dreamweaver.

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.

DW CS5.5 Testing server setup - Help!!

Hi everyone,
Sorry if this is in the incorrect place for this error but I an having difficulties running a test server for php testing.
I am running MacBook Pro, Lion and have Xampp installed. DW CS5.5 Databases access via phpmyadmin works fine.
Ok so this is what I do:
1. Create a new site in DW CS5.5

                    (Note: When creating the new folder in htdocs a pop up states that the folder is read only, so I am hoping its something to do with that)

4. Open the Databases tab
     Click the + and select MySQL Connection
          name: MyConnection
          mySQL server: localhost

HT4938 New mac-mini server setup without keyboard and mouse

Im trying to use the server app to setup my new mac mini server without mouse and keyboard, but the server is not listed. I have tried using its IP address with no username and the serial number as password but it won't connect. Any ideas?

You may have a version mismatch. If I recall, setup assistant is OS version dependent so if the refurb is 10.5 and the Mac Pro is 10.6 you will likely not be able to use setup assistant.
However, just use ARD or Screen Sharing to connect. If the mini is visible on the network and in the ready for setup mode, you can ssh into the machine using the root user and the first 8 digits of the machine serial number. Then you can use the kickstart command to startup the ARD agent on the system. Use these commands while in the SSH session.
cd /System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/Resources
sudo ./kickstart -activate
sudo ./kickstart -configure -access -on -privs -all -users <shortname>
For now, the user will need to be root because there is no user. Then screen share the system to complete the remainder of the initial setup.
In theory this will work. Works on Xserves, so I believe the minis work the same for initial setup.
Hope this helps

New Coldfusion Server Setup in Flashbuilder and Coldfusion Builder not working

I have not found the combination for adding a new Coldfusion Server in Flash Builder 4.7 or Coldfusion Builder 2.01 with Coldfusion 10. I am running windows 7 64bit. on IIS 7. Coldfusion 10 is running fine.
All was well with Coldfusion 9 Flash Builder 4.6 and Coldfusion Builder 2.0.
Local Server Settings for CF9 were
Server Home C:\Coldfusion9
Document Root C:\inetpub\wwwroot
Version: 9.0.x
Now as soon as I put in C:\Coldfusion10 or C:\Coldfusion10\cfusion I get an error "Server home is not valid".
Any hints on getting this going.

Hi Jeff,
Can you let us know the directory location for wwwroot on your system.

That does not work. As soon as I put C:\ColdFusion10\cfusion in the Server Home I get the error Server Home Invalid. I have uninstalled Coldfusion 10 and re-installed added the latest updates. Coldfusion 10 is working fine running on IIS 7.
Not necessarily. As soon as you select the "cfusion" location, it would automatically pick the wwwroot location.

With Coldfusion 10 , since you have C:\ColdFusion10\cfusion\wwwroot. as the Document root will this only work if you install the included web server?

Local Testing server and htdocs

So I have set up apache/php with virtual servers and I'm
using DW8.
I may have terminology errors below. Correct me where I'm
wrong please.
Example site directory C:/apache/htdocs/site.com/
The web directory is: C:/apache/htdocs/site.com/htdocs
however there are other important files hiden below this
rebroot in "site.com/application" for example
My work diretory is C:/somewhere else/site.com. While
developing, I just set the testing server as my webserver and
posted everything to preview, but know I want to include the
production server, and try to use my local testing setup correctly.
I use DW to ftp and edit the site files, including those
below the webroot, so is set my directories to allow access to
those files. My annoyance is that when I preview my site it tries
to pull up the homepage as www.site.dev/htdocs/index.php
(I use dev to distinguish the local testing server)
Can I resolve this problem, or can someone explain how to
effecttively manage your workdirectory, testingserver and
production server from one DW site? At the moment I'm using two DW
sites to manage for now.

Thank you for your answers.

First, this is very possible depending on your theme. Some of the dyanmic effects in themes use javascript files from the JQuery library as well as other javascript libraries. Because of this it may not be possible to edit all files.
How do you think I could check this is true ? I think I need all the files if I wish to edit the theme. Would copying all the remote files locally help clearing this in any way ?

Ok now I don't understand. When I go to http://localhost/mysite/wp-admin, it shows me the WP logo,

Your WordPress database is already up-to-date!
And a big "continue" button, all of which on the original site (the url is http://www.mysite.com/wp-admin/upgrade.php?_wp_http_referer=%2Fwp-admin%2F). Pressing the button gets me to http://www.mysite.com/.
Is that because I imported the database from the live site ? I don't know what I did to get that, I used to get to the local WP installation. Could that be a bad database setup ?
Any idea ?
Again, thank you a lot for helping me out here !

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.

Synchronize with Testing Server?

If I have not set up a remote server, only my local testing server, is there a way to Get the files from the testing server? I've done a lot of work that's currently only being saved on the testing server because it's through wordpress and I don't want to lose it. Dreamweaver (CS4) only referrs to "get newer files from remote site" which is confusing considering I don't have one set up. When I try synchronizing that way it's synching thousands of files and it's having trouble "getting" files such as my faqs.php. Could this be a permissions issue?

Yes it is possible because Wordpress has nothing to do with DW. Having said so, all you need to do is this:
1) Setup your remote server with Wordpress installed and all databases created;
2) Backup your localhost databases using the methods given in this article:
<http://tinyurl.com/ypvg83>
3) Restore the backed up databases to your remote server using the method given in this article:
<http://tinyurl.com/5r4nv9>
Finally, may I suggest that you should stop using DW to update your Wordpress website because Wordpress works completely differently from DW. DW uses simple flat text files that can be manipulated using any text editor. Wordpress uses its own framework that posts all data to a MYSQL database.

Lost option to upload related files when using testing server.

I used to get a dialogue box when I was previewing files on my local machine using my localhost testing server setup. It was kind of annoying having to click yes every time. Last week I accidentally clicked the don't show this anymore box and now when I preview a site on my localhost related files and updated files are not uploaded. I have to manually upload the css, php, and any other related files to the testing server's folder.
I tried deleting preferences, re-installing Dreamweaver CS4, and everything else I can think of but I can't get this option back. Is there some way, other than using the same folder for the testing server and the site to avoid this problem?
Thanks.

Testing Server error

Hello~
I am working on a site in Dreamweaver 8, and keep getting an
error message about the testing server not resolving... but I don't
have a testing server set up! The Testing Server tab is set to
None. The host directory is set to "/", like it reads in the error,
but I'm not sure why it thinks this is also a testing server. Any
ideas?
Error:
The URL prefix / for this site's testing server could not be
resolved. This could be due to several reasons:
1. You have specified a local root folder that does not fall
under the web server root folder (not the easiest way to test a
site).
2. There is no web server running on the URL. A web server
must be running in order to map pages through a URL.
3. There is a web server running but no virtual web folder
has been mapped to this prefix. A web virtual folder mapping is
needed for local sites that aren't under ther web root
folder.

The problem lies in the following:

The testing server folder must be inside the Apache server
root. If you
have a standard Apache setup, this will be a folder called
htdocs within
C:\Program Files\Apache etc.

Solution to using Site Root with Sub-folders on Testing Server & Browser Previews

Hi Everyone
Have found an elegant solution when using Site Root relative linking for a website, that allows browser previews, even when the testing server uses sub-folders and the live code references just the server site root " / " of the live server and not the sub-folder structure of the testing server. This is really useful when you don't want to use document relative linking, which normally takes care of this problem in Dreamweaver.
The solution is to use sub-domains referencing the sub-folders on the testing server, so the sub-folders appear as the root of each website and the html code pointing to the site root works correctly on both testing & live servers without alteration.
Testing Server Setup
One testing server domain is used for all client development work:
For example: www.testingserver.com
On the testing server there are multiple sub-folder (one for each client website being developed):
For example: www.testingserver.com/clientA/ , www.testingserver.com/clientB/ , www.testingserver.com/clientC/
Live Server Setup
The site code needs to be developed with the final live server folder structure (url references) in mind:
For example: www.livesite.com (with all pages referencing the root of the live site server)
Page URLs on Testing & Live Servers
/page-name.html
Testing server url: www.testingserver.com/clientA/page-name.html
Live server url: www.livesite.com/page-name.html (without /clientA/ sub-folder)
Browser Previews Don't Work
You want to be able to run browser previews on the testing server while developing the website. To do this you normally have to reference the sub-folder structure of the testing server in the url for things to work right:
For example www.testingserver.com/clientA/page-name.html
What do you do, when you can't keep switching all the urls in the code from pointing to the sub-folder to pointing to the site root, and you don't want to use document relative linking?
One Solution - Sub-domains on Testing Server
In your domain hosting (outside of Dreamweaver) setup a sub-domain to point to the testing server sub-folder.
For example: Sub-domain clientA.testingserver.com points to www.testingserver.com/clientA (sub-folder)
So now when you reference the sub-domain it sees the sub-folder as the site root and all your problems are solved.
Dreamweaver Site Definition Setup
Site Definition under "Local Info"
Links relative to: Site Root
Site Definition under "Remote Info" (live server)
Access: FTP
FTP host: ftp.livesite.com
Host directory: /
Site Definition under "Testing Server"
Access: FTP
FTP host: clientA.testingserver.com
Host directory: /
URL prefix: http://clientA.testingserver.com
(location of the site's root folder on the testing server, the sub-domain redirection takes care of pointing to the sub-folder)
This is just one solution but it works well for me as it doesn't have any cost associated with it under our hosting package where you can have multiple sub-domains setup.
Hope this helps someone in a similar situation.

Just Google it, or run out and buy a copy of David Powers' Foundations Dreamweaver CS4 with CSS, Ajax and PHP, a book that is never out of reach for me. He details the process explicitly for both Mac and PC.
For me, on W7, I edit the C:/Windows/System32/drivers/etc/hosts file, and add the ip of my testing server along with the site alias -
192.168.1.82 site.local
Then I add this same designation to my httpd.conf file in Apache on the testing server. Finally I restart Apache.
Now from my production machine if I browse to "http://site.local", I get to see either the default file in the root of the site on the testing server, or a directory of the site on the testing server (my testing server is a unix box running on my LAN at that ip address). Furthermore, all of my root relative links now work as they would if the pages were being browsed from the live server.

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?

Need Help Setting Up Testing Server

Hi. I have been using Dreamweaver for a while, but am
extremely new at the whole testing server thing, as I have been
building only simple pure-html pages.
I am want to password protect a part of my site using the
Insert > Data Objects > User Authentication > Log In User.
I have already converted my whole site from .html pages to
.php pages, because I thought that .html pages wouldn't work.
Everytime I try to use that Log In User menu command,
Dreamweaver gives me a dialog box that says, "Before inserting this
object, please do the following: 1. Create a site for this file 2.
Choose a document type 3. Set up the site's testing server".
Numbers 1 and 2 have a checkbox which I am assuming means they are
done correctly. But number 3 (set up teh site's testing server) has
no checkbox and the dialog box will not allow me to click OK, which
leads me to assume that I need to accomplish the aforementioned
step number 3.
So I go to the Site Definition for my site and under the
Advanced Tab go to Testing Server. I want PHP MySQL as the server
model, so I chose that. And I am guessing I need to choose
Local/Network for the Access option because
the computer I am building this site on is not connected to the
internet. (I have no intention of hooking this machine up to
the internet becauase all of my work I have ever done is on it!)
Now, here lies my main question: What should the Testing
server folder be? And what should the URL prefix be? And do I need
to change anything else?
If I am not being clear about anything regarding my
questions, please make a point of it, and I will try to be more
clear.
Thank you so much for helping!

> Host Directory:/root folder/ (if no root folder
directory use "/"
Or leave it blank.
> FTP Host:yoursite.com
I see that this is a *real* domain, with a real registration.
It's best to
just use 'example.com' for dummy domain names.
> URL Prefix:
http://your-site.com/
Ditto. And by the way, there was no hyphen when you first
used this!

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
