I am attempting to build a GeoDjango site. I have tried three hosting providers so far and eventually run into a roadblock with each one.
The latest... A2Hosting seemed promising until I needed to run:
sudo apt-get install binutils libproj-dev gdal-bin
I was then informed that I need to move to an unmanaged VPS. This translates to I need to completely set up the entire system.
I attempted to do this, but feel I ended up creating more security vulnerabilities than getting it to work.
I know very little about the "sever" side and this is why I am trying to go to a "hosted" solution.
It seems the steps that need to be provided are:
django support
postgis support (including remote access - we want to be able to hit the database through QGIS as well)
Support to install the geospatial dependencies needed to turn django into geodjango - this seems to be the show stoppper for most hosting providers.
Any suggestions for who to try next would be greatly appreciated.

the question seems to be weird, but it's a part of long story to install Fluentd on sles11 sp4, actually.
I've seen success story of Fluentd on sles11 sp3 here, by #ab77
https://serverfault.com/questions/539307/installing-fluentd-kibana-elastic-search-on-suse-enterprise-linux-11/540521#540521
Unfortunately, I can't follow the way above because of my company security policy : git clone from github via https is disabled, so all dynamic deps via rbenv fail.
So I got an idea to install Ruby 2.1.0 (Fluentd requirements) from an isolated package on JBoss of my company, which should contain all the dependencies.
For the moment I'm struggling with numerous dependencies and not sure if this is possible at all or not (I'm completely new in Ruby).
If you were facing something similar, could you please share your experience?
Thank you for the help!
There is some tutorial for RVM (Ruby version manager) rvm.io/rvm/offline
I've seen companies putting gems to their own gem servers and installing them from there directly guides.rubygems.org/run-your-own-gem-server
I have been trying to add newrelic support for the better half of the day now. (isn't this supposed to be easy?) Thinking I might be running into issues because of forge? I know Forge used to have the ability to plug in a key and your off to the races. I no longer see that option?... Did they remove support of NewRelic?
I keep getting the following issue when even trying to install manually using New Relics instructions:
sudo apt-get install newrelic-php5
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package newrelic-php5
Using Laravel Forge, Lumen, Amazon AWS, HHVM and None (2 instances running)
Thanks

Even if you could make the installation work, unfortunately New Relic doesn't support HHVM nor they are planning to.
A couple of years of go i used to program using PHP, but without frameworks. With these recent developments I've decided to get in the to the game and try using one. I've decided to use yii 2.0 .
I've read some of the documentation and in my opinion there is some lack of information (at least for who is getting started), so i´m having some problems installing yii 2.0 on my computer using Xampp. The PHP version is 5.5.9.
From what i could understand i downloaded the yii 2.0 framework, extracted the content and copied to c:\xampp\htdocs\yii2
I've already installed the composer, so the the next thing to do i think would be, using the cmd, do these two lines of code:
composer global require "fxp/composer-asset-plugin:1.0.0"
composer create-project --prefer-dist --stability=dev yiisoft/yii2-app-basic basic
The problem is when i do the last one it asks for username and password i think of GitHub. Can you tell me if I'm obligated to have an account on github to install yii 2.0 framework.
Is there a way to get around this?
Yii2 is integrated with composer asset plugin. It allows download Bower and NodeJs packages through Composer.
Github account is required to overcome API rate limit. Here is the explanation from the main contributor of this extension:
It's a rate limit of Github API. In anonymous access, Github at a
greatly reduced limit (60/hr it seems to me), and we must be logged
with a token for have a much higher limit.
See composer/composer#1569 and composer/composer#1877
The problem also exists using Nodejs and Bower.
You can find it in this issue, it's 9th from the top.
I think workaround with installing Bower and the same packages is not an option, because initially and with each framework update you must manually synchronize packages with their versions and override some configuration. Also some extensions require javascript plugins and using composer asset plugin too. So you have to do the same with each of them too. It simply not worth it. And having account on Github for web developer nowadays is kind of de facto standard.
Just create Github account if you are still don't have one and everything should be fine. Earlier updating process was pretty slow, now it's faster and I found this approach pretty interesting and flexible.
I am used to Drupal, and it is fairly clear with Drupal which modules are on a server. I am new to phpBB and looking to learn just enough to migrate an install to Drupal. I can see that phpBB has 'modules' but I can't see how to tell which modules are are Installed or enabled.
From what I can see, installing modules in phpbb3 is a lot of hacking flies in the install, is this true? Is there a way to tell what is installed. even if I have to run some grep over the code?
Installing modules is 'complicated' in PHPBB3. However, anything in the MOD Database can be installed (or uninstalled) using AutoMOD. This should make your life easier if you are looking for mods in the MOD Database. The 'complicated' part of the install is any Do-It-Yourself instructions. You have to execute these by hand. This is the 'hacking files' that you mentioned. It seems to be fairly common in the 3.0.x versions of PHPBB. 3.1 is supposed to reduce this, but PHPBB development is slow. 3.1 entered feature freeze in July of 2010
A basic tutorial to install a mod using AutoMOD is available.
AutoMOD also allows you to see which modules have been installed (using AutoMOD). If you manually installed something by hacking through the install script yourself, it won't appear on this list.
I just installed red5 on my server, and the install seems to work fine. As you can see here: http://onelifemedia.com:5080
I got this far by using this walkthrough: http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?t=1046590
The /demos page gives me a 404 error. So I logged onto the server, and checked to see if the "demo" directory was already there. It was not.
The applications that I installed were a directory up from the root directory. I'm not sure if this is right or not.
Either way, my end goal is to actually get something working besides the main page. If I can get the demos to work, then hopefully I should be well on my way.
I guess my questions can be broken down like this:
Does anyone know how to get the demos working?
Should I forget about the demos, and try to start writing my own code?
If I should write my own code, how should I go about installing it? Since the installer is not properly installing the demos.
Thanks
The tutorial is good but you dont need the admin app. Use the installer link in the tutorial and install the demo you want to use. The content of the "demos" directory is only the swf files used to access the server demos which you use the installer app to install. For instance , select "oflaDemo" and then from the main page navigate to demos/oflaDemo et voila.
I know I'm biased being a core developer, but we've attempted to make the server as ez as possible to use.
I could install demos from the latest svn trunk, Checkout the source, use ant&ivy to build and run the server and you can install two sample apps(oflaDemo and SOSample).
You may need to use ivy commands resolve some of the common issues during installations.
E:\dev\red5\java\server\trunk>ant ivyclear dist

I could resolve the issue based on the information in Red5 users mailing list and comments by Mr.Mondain in one of the posts in Stackoverflow
