I am looking for a good site to throw up my pet projects. Its nothing I want published to the world at large (if at all possible), its just for stuff that I want to play around with. The big thing is that I am going to need the ability to delete projects when I am done with them, something that wouldn't be supported if I checked multipl...

I'm building a new Silverlight app for a photography studio. I was about to say "you have to have a Windows-based server hosting it" and then I thought, wait is that right? Looks like it's not. So I could point him toward a Linux host. I know you have to register the MIME types (from a different SO thread). Are there any other caveats ...
So I'm learning Rails and I decided to check out my cheap hosting options on GoDaddy, and their versions look like this. Are all the GEMs relevant in a normal Rails app (defining that liberally), or is just the Rails version? My guess is that is would be actionpack and rails, perhaps? If it is just the Rails version, GoDaddy is using 1....
I am looking for recommendations for a VPS or dedicated server hoster in the UK. It's to host a Java/Tomcat web app, MySQL backend, on Linux, pref Redhat. Do not need tremendously high spec, but am concerned with uptime, response times to enquiries and bandwidth - not the cap but actual throughput. Thanks for the suggestions, Richard....
What are the disadvantages (if any) of using a virtual private server instead of a dedicated server to host my web application? I launching my first web application in a couple of months and I'm trying to wonder what's the best way to host it at an affordable price. It's built in ASP.Net and uses SQL Server Express. My point is, since...

The Asp.Net javascript validators fire, but any and all of the jquery is not working? I even put in a simple $("#test").html("working");...

I created a small VS solution that includes WF with WCF ReceiveActivity project (using basicHttpBinding) and a number of plain C# services. They all work perfectly when tested from VS 2008 using WCFTestClient. I deployed them into a single Windows Service. All but WF service work fine. I spent 6 hours browsing, but didn’t find a solu...

My Company is running several international websites for selling insurance products. Our current setup is a Webfarm with multiple Loadbalanced Webservers hosting our ASP.NET applications. The backend is a single - yet powerful - SQL Server. (all in one data center) Our network admins want to move to virtual servers running on VMWare. S...
We are trying to figure out the best way to distribute our applications among our available servers, which are few in number. Assuming adequate RAM and CPU power, is there any reason we shouldn't run mod_php and mod_rails (Passenger) within the same Apache server? Would they clash or conflict somehow? ...
I would like to host an application window from a process "A" into the main window of a process "B", just as if "A"'s window were a MDI child window. Is this possible in Windows? Or are there some tricks which would allow me to fake this? By the way, I'd like to remove the title bar (or better yet, all the non-client stuff) of "A"'s win...

Hi, I am based in the UK and have two webservers, one German based (1&1) and the other is UK based (Easyspace). I recently signed up to the UK easyspace server because it was about the same price I paid for my 1&1 server but also I wanted to see if my sites hosted on a UK server gave better results in terms of UK based traffic. Its se...

There are many services offering hosted code repositories and version control, some are completely free like Sourceforge, Google Code, Codeplex, others offer paid services for private code like Beanstalk, GitHub or Springloops.

I very recently released my ASP.NET MVC based website. I'm beginning planning for when I need to upgrade hosting. I'd like to move to a cloud computing provider and I saw that GoDaddy has a grid hosting solution in beta. Anyone tried to deploy an ASP.NET MVC web app to the GoDaddy grid hosting? If so, how was the experience? According t...
I've got rather poor knowledge of *nix virtualization capabilities and trying to clarify one thing. If one has root on host machine, does it always mean that he has root on all VMs of that host? If yes, then could there be a bogus setup where this is not true? I'm asking cause I heard two different answers to that question from two diff...
