Hello,

I am eagerly anticipating the use of your great looking program into my website. However, I am having problems using the makesite command.

The confusion (for me) lies in using myPHPadmin located at my hosting company (IX Web Hosting). I have created my table there on remote server. However, my dataface is obviously on my home computer.

Could you please walk me through setup of my makesite command –

My info looks like this…

unsure

billy -on remote server-

something -on remote server-

00.000.000.000 -remote server ip-

testing -on remote server-

http://www.project.com/dataface-0.7.1 -on home computer-

thank you very much

Hi,

Unfortunately the makesite command has to be run on the host same machine where the site will be running

If you don’t have shell access to your server, then I recommend you follow the manual set-up instructions in the getting started guide. In fact I rarely use the makesite command because it is so simple to just do manually..
