Zend server alternative

Hi there,
I want to help yours. As far as I know zend server is not free. ANd i did not pay for the server program.
Is there a server program that you can recommend for Scriptcase to run smoothly.
Best regards.

You mean the IDE or the generated apps? Honestly, we work with 10 devs on one instance and besides some hicks and locks sometimes it generally works well. The generated applications have no performance issues and we have thousands of users.

Thanks Albert,:slight_smile:

I want to deploy on ScriptCase.

could you please , do you send a free program link? (​instead of zend server)
:slight_smile:

I do not think there is such a program.

Is there a php.ini configuration proposal for xammp to make it work without problems with ScriptCase?

Many thanks in advance for your good help

If you deploy scriptcase applications you don’t need anything. There is no dependency for zend on the deployed application.
If you need to run Scriptcase then on windows it comes with apache and all that is needed. Never tried to mess with that. On linux / mac i don’t know…

As Albert mentioned only your development environment will need Zend (previous versions), or SourceGuardian (v9). The generated source code will run without either on the server.

Thanks for helping…

As far as I understand, the zend server is already in the setup file. I do not need extra writing to Deploy.

However, the scriptcase deploy screen is constantly waiting…
I still can not understand…Why?

@ckaraca Yes as long as you’re installing the “Installer”, if you’ve downloaded the zip file then no. With the zip file your environment will already need to meet the requirements.

I give up now.
Neither Scriptcase.net nor forum have found a solution. The money I spent on ScriptCase is empty. I can not deploy even a simple project I can not deploy it already 15 minutes. Eventually it becomes a scriptcase timeout. Constantly indecisive.
Unfortunately my disappointment.
:frowning:

note:There is no problem with my computer and there is no virus.

Hi ckaraca,
We are all SC users here on the forum but we can try to help if you clarify some basic info:

First, I tried to watch the youtube video but it is saying ‘private’.

Q1 - Are you trying to install the Scriptcase IDE OR are you trying to deploy generated apps? That is a big difference.

Q2 - Are you deploying to your laptop/PC OR to a linux server or hosted server?

Q3 - If to a laptop/PC, what OS - Windows 7, 10, etc?

Q4. Can you put this file into your www root and browse to it to see the results?
debug.php

[SIZE=14px]<?php[/SIZE]

[SIZE=14px]// Show all information[/SIZE]
[SIZE=14px]phpinfo[/SIZE]SIZE=14px;

?>[/SIZE]

Q5 - If you are having problems deploying generated apps, then are you using FTP, SFTP?

Q6 - If using one of the above, can you connect to your remote server using WINSCP or other FTP/SFTP program?

If you are a new paid customer, I would also go thru netmake directly and try to get them to help you. They have been pretty good helping people get started.

With more info it will help us to get you going. You can do it :slight_smile:
Peace,
Jamie

Hi onmountain,

A1 - I am trying deploy generated apps.

Q2 - Are you deploying to your laptop/PC OR to a linux server or hosted server?
A2 - I deploy on laptop (Toshiba Tecra 8 Gb RAM)

Q3 - If to a laptop/PC, what OS - Windows 7, 10, etc?
A3 - Windows 10

Q4. Can you put this file into your www root and browse to it to see the results?

Q5 - If you are having problems deploying generated apps, then are you using FTP, SFTP?
A5 - Like in the video, only zip file deploy

A6 - NO

Thanks a lot.

Hi ckaraca,
That helps us try to help.

First, please send the SC support and/or Marcia and email with the link to this post. Hopefully they can help you on this.

I will start and narrate my debugging below - others please jump in if you see the immediate problem.

  • So the SC IDE is running - that is good.
  • The fact that your debug.php file executed is also good - tells us that PHP is working.
  • I watched the video - you are deploying using ZIP and is hangs up at some point thru the process.
Since you are deploying on the same machine you are developing on, it should be working. I would try these ideas:

Idea 1:

  • If possible, using a php.ini file in the root of your SC IDE install, add a line: max_execution_time = 120
  • Play with that setting, increasing it to see if the deployment process will complete.
  • Your laptop has 8 GB RAM, so one would think that there is plenty of memory - BUT possible that some setting is limiting that too for the web server.
Here is what my php.ini in the root of my SC IDE is set to:

memory_limit = 1024M
max_input_vars = 10000
max_input_time = 600
max_execution_time = 7200

This is not for the php.ini for the deployed applications. But maybe this will help your system take the time to build the zip file and so on.

SC has to do a lot of things when deploying generated apps, especially when you have a lot of them. I often have projects with 300+ apps in a single web application. I have just found that the settings above work for me to keep timeouts and stuff from happening. I don’t think there is a set-in-stone guideline for these, and maybe some people can work with never setting them. But I offer as an example :slight_smile:

Idea 2:

I normally do not use the ZIP except to make a backup deployment so to speak. I normally use SFTP or of the SC IDE and the deployment website is on the same sever (or laptop), I use deploy to server director. Just thinking you might try the server directory option. That would avoid making a zip file, possibly helping if the zip was not working correctly for some reason.

Good luck and let m know what you find.
Jamie

Hi Jamie,

Thanks a lot your help :slight_smile:

I will try your ideas and i will send the result …

Thanks again.

you are mixing things.
If you want to deploy locally use Deploy to folder or zip file and unzip where you want. (S)FTP only makes sense if you deploy to other server over Lan or Internet and I don’t totally suggest to use FTP deployment through internet.

Hi everyone,
I’m trying local too. My goal is to achieve deploying any sample project. But I have not succeeded in any way until now. I have been constantly contacting Scriptcase authorities, but they have not been resolved. I can even grant you permission to remotely access my laptop to solve the problem.

Thanks… :slight_smile:

you nailed it :slight_smile: with the way is described, in first page of this thread, my point was to understand the question :slight_smile:

ckaraca, do you still have problem in this?

For these kinds of errors you need to check your php log and your apache logs. It will be a lot easier to find then trying to guess why it goes wrong. The log files are your friend…
So also for deployment you should have a good error logging on…
