I'm trying to get the Poll tutorial working at my Dreamhost account (I don't have any prior experience of deploying Django). I downloaded the script I found here (http://gabrielfalcao.com/2008/12/02/hosting-and-deploying-django-apps-on-dreamhost/) at my home directory and executed it. Now I have Python 2.5 and Django in ~/.myroot/ and my...

I'm using the GDR release of VSTS Database edition source control the DB and generate deployment scripts. It works pretty well but the problem is that it only seems to handle scripting and deploying the schema. It stops short of handling scripting and deployment of the actual data itself (i.e. the lookup and standing data which also de...
I have a system in production that has several servers in serveral roles. I would like to test a new app server by deploying to that specific server, without having to redeploy to every server in production. Is there a way to ask Capistrano to deploy to a specific server? Ideally I'd like to be able to run something like cap SERVER=app2...
I usually write C# programs for myself, or just parts of other applications. Now, I have been working on a project that I would like to eventually commercialize and I am interested in the easiest way to deploy a simple application from VS 2008 that will primarily be downloaded and installed. I am not just interested in installer choice...
I used to use discountasp.net and I can use Visual Studio 2008 to "publish" the website directly to the web host. I am using a dedicated server now (well, to be exact, Amazon EC2 Windows), how should I setup the web server so I can deploy the website directly from VS 2008? I tried to setup a FTP server but couldn't get it working. Thank...

I've deployed an ASP.NET MVC site with a robots.txt file in the root but when I try and access this url it's returning 404. I have an .xml and a .html file in the root as well and they return valid content. I'm running this on IIS 6. I've tried adding .txt as "text/plain" to the MIME Types but no luck. Suggestions? ...
I want to protect my database.yml file by keeping it out of version control. Thus, I have two tasks in my Capistrano deploy recipe: task :copy_db_config do # copy local config file if it exists and is more # recent than the remote one end task :symlink_db_config do run "ln -nfs #{shared_path}/config/database.yml #{release_path}/...

When testing our software on several different systems (98-XP-Vista-Seven-Linux-etc), I think that the best choice is to use virtualized systems. What's your choice: VMware, Virtual Box or MS Virtual PC/Server? and why? ...
I have an existing app that has a free trail, and the same code/download can also be "upgraded" to a full-featured application by giving it a "license key". This is done with some magic and the semi-hacky method of getting some name for a machine. So, basically I am selling licenses per computer. The current payment and activation p...
I am trying to draft up a comprehensive document to assist the maintenance group for a new Sharepoint 2007 Intranet. What I have problems deciding is what the right tool is to migrate various different elements to the customer-approval and production environment. We expect in the future to have to deal with new lists, new custom types/l...
In the near future i will get some 2 weeks for moving and improving our development environment at work. We mainly develop one large PHP/MySQL project with 2-10 developers. At the moment we have one dev server, running apache with mod_userdir, each dev has a /public_html folder in his (samba-accessible) home. For VCS and Project Manage...
We have a physical machine that runs VMware and hosts a VM we use for SharePoint deployment testing. That machine is old and dying, and my employer's network czars are heavily pushing hosted VMs as a replacement for outdated physical servers. I was curious about whether it's possible to run VMware inside VMware, and if so, whether ther...
I usually use the "Publish" feature in VS 2008 to get the correct files and so on that I can publish to my website. But from time to time publish fails without any good error message at all. I know that it can be a couple of different reasons but I am starting to grow really tired with this now. Can anyone teach me how to build the webs...
I have a J2EE application that runs fine and is accessible to the internet. Some of our prospective customers would like to use it, but are unwilling to send their data over the internet. As a workaround I've thought of providing them with the war file and letting them run it themselves. The problem is: how do I make it trivial for the...
I have a Git repository (originally CVS, then SVN, now Git) containing a Rails project that has been deployed on Linux for a while now. Everything seems to run fine. Now that I've converted to git, I see that many of my files in the repository contain CRLF line endings. I'd love for it to all be consistent (LF), but not at the expense...
Page is published from MOSS content management server to MOSS front end server. Content deployment path is used to publish the page. I can remove/unpublish page from content management server.

I'm using a Web Deployment Project in Visual Studio 2008 in order to prepare my ASP.NET application (ASP.NET web application, not ASP.NET web site) for being copied to several servers. I have to copy the files on local staging servers, on different servers via FTP and sometimes I have to fetch them from customers' servers. So, it would...
