UniCenter

[Ric]

I sit here looking at the forum and see no real activity. A number of visitors well just pass by.

 

The trouble is I look at UniCenter, kindly hosted by Olajide, true to his word no censorship; I do really mean that and thank him for being that honest.

 

The real reason for this post, I know UniCenter is getting to the stage where it is well past its sell by date. OK to be honest a little difficult to manage.

 

I will publish a few more articles for 3.5 however what I would like to known do you find the material useful?

 

I would like to prune or delete topics that are no longer of any use. However I would like to know is there anything related to UniServer that you would like covered. :angry:

 

Experts need not apply; if you cannot switch that PC on I will come knocking on your door. Seriously if there is something you do not understand I will try to cover that, is the reason for UniCenter’s existence.

 

Feel free to add any comments to this post, I will apologise in advance for not answering every post but the feed back will be more than welcome and I thank you for that.

All the best

Ric

HI - I just wanted to go on record as saying I LOVE Unicenter. All your hard work has been just so very helpful to me - I can write coldfusion code, but I am not anywhere near being a "tech" ;P

 

& If I have trouble finding something at the unicenter I just go to the sitemap. I haven't posted anything here in the forum in a long time because 1. I've been up to my eyebrows in alligators in work, 2. I have been awaiting the release of 3.5 and 3. I haven't had anything worthwhile to contribute.

 

The one thing I have been hoping to see is a tutorial or version I could run off of a CD (where maybe mysql would right its data file to c:\temp or ???) - I could work this out myself (with much mistake making and anquish) but just have had so much going on in both my work life and personal life that I keep putting that off.

 

Anyway - in conclusion - Thank you! for Unicenter - It is a treasure trove of much needed info.

I know megan.. i also love the UniCenter and i am even thinking of taking the wiki down cause it pretty much takes the use of the wiki since it even has more information....

 

But really Ric, if you wanted more topics, you could just do something like the wiki. How to install this and that, like the wiki on cd, i am sorry, been to busy to get to do that, but i know you can do it, pretty easy.. just turn the logs off or put them somewhere else and co....

 

I will get back to you though... gotta run!

Olajide take the Wiki down! No way, I see that as a professional source of information, UniCenter is only an alternative point of view.

 

I use both the Wiki and the bolg for my information, so please do not even think about it.

 

All the best

After that i will upgrade it to the new version.

Hi Megan

Thanks for the kind words, request noted. I am in the process of doing just that. When 3.5 final is released it will take about a week to test and publish. Hope you like it; so far I have produced only one beer coaster!

All the best

As promised take a look at this page:

OK not finised, on-going but a good pointer, hack it around.

k, lol

Well the code for USCD2 (3.5-Apollo) is almost in place. An unofficial plugin with a little tutorial, I have one problem with it! Not sure what users want?

 

In CD-mode it currently updates UniServer and it’s files that are not applicable to CD operation (my personal view). OK rips the heart out of apanel’s menus.

 

In US-mode restores every thing back to their originals.

 

Just wondering what a user will use it for and how flexible they want this version.

 

Any feedback will be interesting and considered for inclusion must be general for every user.

 

There are no deadlines its an ongoing project well Oily Rag what do you expect! :angry:

 

All the best

Ric - Thank you!!! so very much - as to why a user would want it - I want to be able to create some "demo" apps to distribute on CD - also have a couple other quirky "CD" ideas Wow! I can hardly wait to try this out

 

Thank you again, I am Totally appreciative

We might be coming with a CD version of the Uniform Server by the end of the year.

[Ric]

You may be interested!

I have just published the second part of my little tutorials on how to run 3.5-Applo from a CD.

 

You can find it here:

http://center.uniformserver.com/us_35_oily_rag/uscd_2.html

 

It offers additional flexibility however one part I could not get working was phpMyBackUpPro its due to the method they use for updating their global config file.

 

One minor issue I always forget about language files hence apanel is hard coded in English.

 

We might be coming with a CD version of the Uniform Server by the end of the year.

 

I look forward to that, always interested in alternative solutions mine tend to be hacks more than final solutions.

 

Well that brings me to one final point I have hacked 3.5-Apollo around and have one page on UniCenter I like more than any other!

Lol, Ric, you are a trip. lol haha

I have just updated Oily Rag, seems I managed to screw several links, backtracked on this thread and hopefully corrected all links.

 

I am easily side tracked; all the best John hope you enjoy the CGI and CLI Perl stuff

 

The link you are looking for is:

I do ramble on so go to CLI examples. Trust you are now a member of the forum! :angry:
