Ok...I thought I had this worked out, but now I'm running into
path issues on my server.
What I'm trying to accomplish is this:
- I'm using an SVN service to post changes to my web server
- I commit a change to SVN, then SVN sends update to server
- On the SVN server, I have two FTP sites set up to handle commits
- One FTP site gets commits immediately...that's the development site,
or folder on my server
- The second FTP site gets commits only manually...those go to the
production site (or folder) when testing and client approval is finished
- To use this setup, I created three variables for application.activeWebroot
based
on the cgi.server_name in use and used this like this:
<cfif cgi.server_name contains 'localhost'>
<cfset application.activeWebroot = 'hillyPetersonHomes' >
<cfelseif cgi.server_name contains 'hph.whitestonemedia.com'>
<cfset application.activeWebroot = 'hillyPetersonHomes-dev'>
<cfelseif cgi.server_name contains 'hillyPetersonHomes.com'>
<cfset application.activeWebroot = 'hillyPetersonHomes'>
</cfif>
This works fine for local development when using paths such as:
url = /#application.activeWebroot#/images/image.jpg
That translates to http://localhost/hillyPetersonHomes/images/image.jpg.
However, on the server, when domain names become involved, it doesn't work.
When, viewing a site in the development folder, using the domain
"hph.whitestonemedia.com", this path:
url = /#application.activeWebroot#/images/image.jpg
becomes:
url =
http://hph.whitestonemedia.com/hillyPetersonHomes-dev/images/image.jpg
which doesn't work.
It needs to be http://hph.whitestonemedia.com/images/image.jpg
Same problem with the production paths.
I'm probably way over-complicating this solution.
What's a good way to approach this problem?
Using one port on the IIS server for development and 80 for production?
And send hph.whitestonemedia.com to port "79" or whatever for development
sub-domains and www.hillypetersonhomes.com to port "80" for production?
And specify the ports in the FTP settings on the SVN server and on IIS
on the preview/production server?
Thanks for taking the time to read this and for any feedback!
