Folks... I am so excited about the latest developments, I almost peed myself. I have been holding out for years on upgrading... pretty much because I spent so much on the Corporate Server. But, since there seems to be new life being pumped into the product, I am seriuosly considering buying, at the minimum, 2 professional servers. The reason for this post is I have some concerns. I am still using Witango 2000 and very happy with it. I have it installed on 3 servers and never really had any issues. 2 of the servers are Win2k and one is a 2003. We run about 70 websites, some getting about a half million visits per month. I also have some very important corporate clients that are very critical when it comes to uptime, speed, etc. (yeah, I know... but corporate america can be kind of dumb when it comes to this stuff... still running such an old version). Nothing is clustered, all servers are dedicated to specific sites. All tie into a single database server.
Anyway, I am going to be purchasing a few Windows Servers and would like to load the new platform on them. I know there are some adjustments that will need to be made. I believe that one of these is setting the default scope of all unscoped variables to user... is that correct? What I need to know is any other caveats that some of you may have run into. (i.e. do I actually have to open and save each taf before they will work with a new server?) I am thinking of porting 1 site at a time. I will have the luxury of having new servers configured and ready to go along with the old servers. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I just landed some pretty hefty contracts and would like to keep using Witango as it is my program of choice for almost all of our development. I also would like to try to get Witango into the mainsteam a bit more, too. Not sure how to do this, but I would think if we could put our collective heads together, we might be able to come up with something. I do work for some very big corporations and, though I don't want to drop any names here, I might be able to get them to support the product a bit. Not sure how to approach them, just thinking out loud. Endoresements maybe? I am not sure how this stuff works.
