First of all, I will excuse myself for possibly making vague questions.
I am a newby freelancer webdeveloper, and I recently created a webapplication which works fine on my own computer, running it on localhost.
More recently, using A2Hosting, i bought a domain and some server space, and my objective is to upload my application in order to make it online for anyone.
However, right now, I am having a few problems.
Specifically, I do not know how to upload my web application.
Basically, what I did was upload all the folders and files I had on my local machine into the server, and I was hoping that would work.
Unfortunatly, the server continues to display the "initial" site I uploaded. a simple, static, htlm file saying hello world. This file is the index.html that is inside the "www" folder.
The directory of the server is presented in the following figure.
My question is how do I make the server display the content of react/redux page, instead of the simple static html initialy uploaded.
I am not familiar with react however with Angular you would have to run through the same process on the server as you would to run the app locally but with the server variables in place of the local variables.
For example on angular I have to compile and run my front/back ends and ensure my database is also live for it to run at all otherwise nothing would work on the server .
Check what configs need changing to process the change from local to dev
Hopefully that is at least a little bit helpful, the below article should be useful to you.

I completed an online React course and deployed my application to Heroku. During development, I used the 'json-server' module found at https://github.com/typicode/json-server. This served up a folder on my computer which contained a simple json file and a few images for my website while conforming with the REST API. What do I need to do to get the server to operate independently of my machine so that my application can fetch the data ? I have zero experience doing this.
if you mean you want to create a server for your site,
first of all, you need to get a server, which can run nodejs , then you need to deploy and run your JSON server via a nodejs(express) app.
then you can connect to your server via your website/app
in order to do these things, you can follow tutorials
there are lots of tutorials about it.
hope you got the idea.
I am trying to run BlogEngine.NET. It works fine locally in Visual Studio but whenever I publish it outside of my local computer none of the posts are showing up.
I think this is because none of the scripts or CSS are being loaded (the posts are done via AngularJS). I've made sure that the read and write permissions are allowed in IIS so I know that isn't the problem.
I believe that AngularJS isn't loading properly, as when I go to the admin panel the url returned with the 404 error is this:
8926/admin/%7B%7BSiteVars.RelativeWebRoot%7D%7Dadmin/#/dashboard
instead of:
8926/admin/#/dashboard
Even If I manually take out all of the %7B%7BSiteVars.RelativeWebRoot%7D%7Dadmin text, the posts still don't show up as they do locally which leads me to believe the posts are also tied to AngularJS as well.
Does anyone know how to fix this? This may not be a BlogEngine.NET problem as much as it is just a loading of Javascript and CSS problem inside of IIS
The documentation for my project is here.
BlogEngine.Net had moved to GitHub that is where the latest updates are at.
Best to go here:
https://github.com/rxtur/BlogEngine.NET
and try again with a fresh install.
I have a fresh install working with no issues here:
http://blogengine07.azurewebsites.net
Took a total of around 30 mins to it it 100% up and running, creating new web app service,database, change web.config, publish to Azure, and making some changes in settings.
What web host are you using to host your website?
You can also try Azure Web App Service for free here:
https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/try/app-service/web/?language=cs
If you can get it to work there but not at your current web host then that points to a web server issue, since you are able to run it locally and on Azure.
Hope this helps.
Have a great Day!

I try to setup a deployment workflow, but I am completely new to it. I consider to use Git and Bamboo and in this whole thing I am stuck with the database.
Let's say I want to make changes on a CMS website and keep my files versioned on git (bitbucket), I understand how to setup Bamboo that it can SCP the files to my webserver, but I don't get it how I can get the database into this whole system? Are there any tools I am missing?
What I want:
I want to be able to checkout my website files from the gitserver, make changes and send them back to the gitserver and this (via Bamboo) should push the files to the live or testserver.
But even after searching for hours, I don't get a smooth way how to handle the database (getting it local, making changes and pushing it to the server via git) or any other smooth way.
I know there are tools to quickly dump the db for WordPress sites, but for other CMS there are no such tools.
Any advice how to do this right?
We are running our web application successfully on the google app engine server.We are using index.html file
as a welcome file both in local and production environment. Now we want to use different welocme files for local and prtoduction.
I have seen the post: web.xml with different files in welcome-file-list
but will it work without having issues with ips?
May i know what is the procedure to do that? Any suggestions would be great.
A welcome file is only used when no other handler is matched. If you want to test your app starting from DevelopmentIndex.html, all you need to do is hit
.../DevelopmentIndex.html
on your development server.
I have been attempting to teach myself quite a bit about silverlight, and how it all works, for the past few weeks, and I am to the point in my app development where I would like to connect up to my web server's MySQL database.
My web server is capable of running ASP.NET pages, but is Apache, and natively runs PHP (which is what I'm far more familiar with). It has a MySQL database engine, and I am very well-versed in your typical dynamic page creation with PHP and MySQL.
What I'm NOT familiar with are these "Web Services" that people keep mentioning every time I find an answer regarding the question of "how do you connect silverlight to a database?"...
So my basic question is really one of data FLOW, and where everything fits in the puzzle, and how to get it all working in this particular configuration. Most of the answers I have seen deal with IIS instead of Apache, ASP.NET instead of PHP, and MS SQL Server instead of MySQL.
Also, answers tend to start using abbreviations and acronyms without actually explaining what they stand for.
For example: What is WCF, and RIA services, and how do they fit in to the puzzle as a whole?
I suppose I'm just looking for a top-down overview of the structure of data flow on a MACRO level, not on the micro (code) level.
(Edited to add:)
Also: I have done vb.net apps in the past which have used MySQLConnector.NET to pull from my web server's database remotely, but I understand that the client machine would have to be whitelisted as a remote machine, meaning I'd have to open my MYSQL server up, and make the access mask basically %.%.%.% in order for any client to connect... and that is undesirable... so if I understand things right, the web service runs on the web server, and the client sends requests to it, and the web service acts as an intermediary, grabbing the data from the database (possibly with some sort of "stored procedure" look-alike?), and passes the data on to the client... which also means all database access credentials are on the server, and not inside the (potentially hackable) client...
Do I have it right?
Also, when answering, I need to know where the access to the web services is... in the silverlight APP project code, or the silverlight WEB project code...
I have found this wonderful tutorial that helps to explain it...
http://www.designersilverlight.com/2010/05/23/php-mysql-and-silverlight-the-complete-tutorial-part-1/
Here is how I understand it all working.
There are 3 "Layers" to the process: The application, the web server, and the database.
The application calls out to the web server to execute a script file (like a normal PHP script). There script file can have normal URL variables passed to it (like script.php?foo=bar, so $foo is defined as "bar" in the script)... so you can use those URL encoded variable/value pairs to tweak your script results as you would normally with a web page.
I imagine you would have one script per TYPE of database query, with var/value pairs to tweak your results. So on your web server you would end up with numerous PHP scripts, just like you would normally for a website with different pages, and you pass variables in to those scripts to customize the results.
For example, for users, you could have a get_users.php script that would return all users...
but get_users.php?loggedin=true would get all users that are logged in currently
get_users.php?loggedin=true&ingame=true would get all users that are logged in and in a game... You just script the logic and the resulting SQL query accordingly.
All of the results are encoded either with XML or JSON (Javascript Open Notation: see What is JSON and why would I use it? ) for transport to the app... the app, in effect, is reading the results of an echo of the JSON encoded stuff.
If you were to open these scripts in a web browser, the only thing you would see is a text printout of the JSON data... no web page... just data that is read by the app and then decoded in to objects.
So in effect, the silverlight app is reading a text output of a PHP script executed on your web server, and interpreting the output.
^^^^^ THIS IS THE SHORT ANSWER TO MY QUESTION. :)
To be blunt, the whole use of the terminology "web service" is misleading, and what was really leading me astray. I thought it was some sort of service or app you had to install on your web server just like PHPMyAdmin or something.
