From local server to online server - Error. Can't get it working

Permalink
Hi there,

I've just tried uploading a site I've created in WAMP on my local machine to my online hosting area and I am getting the following message

Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'ADODB_Exception' with message 'mysql error: [1146: Table 'westbri1_leighport.Config' doesn't exist]...plus and few other errors.

Anyone know what could be wrong?

Thanks,
Leigh

This sounds like the table names are not capitalized properly (windows does some strange things). There's some more info on this threadhttp://www.concrete5.org/community/forums/installation/uncaught_exc... which should help you fix things up quickly.

Cheers

Found answer here

Is there a way of preventing wamp from 'the mispelling' the database tables in the first place?

I haven't found one. I went to a dual-boot system (Windows / Linux Debian distribution: ubuntu) and haven't looked back. Setting up a dual boot system is a lot easier than it used to be SO LONG as you read the ubuntu site first. Don't follow MS steps on building a dual-boot system, they do not play well with anyone else. You'll find documentation that stipulates loading MS first, then ubuntu as the second OS - where the boot loader will play nice with the MS boot loader and all things will work. Don't blowout MS as it will take a bit to learn and understand the Linux method of doing things. It's a true permissions-based OS that is extremely powerful but does require some hands on experience to learn and use.

You can check out the new Ubuntu Natty release (11.04) by downloading it, burning it to CD and then it will allow you to run the OS system from the disk - without actually installing it on your computer. Slower than if it were installed but still a great way to check out the OS. The most critical step will be getting the right driver for your graphics card. But there is a lot of support for Ubuntu and I personally had no problem getting my Dell XPS to work along with an external monitor.

Cool, always nice to see another Ubuntu user in here :) Been using it for about 5 years now as my primary OS and the progress in the last few releases has been great.

If you're doing any web app development (rails, php, or otherwise) I find it's so much handier to be developing in a similar environment to what the app will be deployed in as it prevents unexpected situations like this :)

Agreed. I went with vim (gVim) and cscope as my two main editing tools. (And other vim plugins too numerous to mention - perhaps we should start a topic in chit-chat?). Can you briefly mention the tools you're using in ubuntu for programming?
