How would you update a hosted site?
Hi all:
I've got my site on godaddy.com which I've been able to install without a problem.
The problem I'm having is this... I replicated a similar setup on my local pc because I figure this way I could do development work on the go and then upload everything to my main site when ready.
What I found is that when I was ready to move things to production (godaddy), I exported everything out using the export process in kentico. I ftp'd the file to the appropriate place on my godaddy acct and I tried to run the import process. This is where things failed on me. I believe because virutalpath is not running or because its a medium trust site, it ran into several errors.
Also, I tried to do a backup (local) and then a restore into my hosted db but found that I couldn't do that either because they don't allow that.
So my questions are: * Has anyone figured an easy way to update their hosted account after making changes from a local pc? Do you just upload templates, themes and other related files individually?
* Aside from the backup/restore option for a db, what else is a good option to update all those tables in Kentico with data that you might have changed from your local version?
* Anyone have any similar experiences and suggestions/solutions?
Thanks in advance!
