Re: Sharing one Cake application with many domains, each with its own database

I've had previous experience with something similar, but with Joomla installations and an arrangement of symlinks.

My advice would be not to set up cake this way. Whilst it's convenient when things are going well, it's very very bad when things go south. It's not just one site that suffers, it's all of them. Especially if you have a database upgrade : all the sites on the machine have to go down while the database upgrades are applied, rather than one at a time.

Find a more automated way to do deployments, rather than do symlinks. Previously, I've used capistrano to automate deployments via SSH, but I've had it in the back of my mind to also check out Fabric (python based). I wish there was something PHP based that also targeted Windows environments, but the best I've been able to come up with there is the usage of Phing (Ant for PHP) and FileSystem copies.

Hello,

We have a shared hosting server that hosts many domains (we will assume that the amount will be scalable). We develop a Cake application and each domain has a copy of the application's files. Each copy of the application connects to each domain's database.

Deploying updates to each domain is an incredibly tiresome and tedious process. We want to consider alternative setups that will make this process easier.

We have thought of one alternative, but are unsure of the scalability of them:
Place one copy of the Cake application on the server and create sym links for the shared files. Domain specific files will of course be unique for each domain
Has anyone had a similar issue or experience?
If anyone has any suggestions or previous experience with a similar issue, please share!

Re: Migrating from 1.3 to 2.x

I would do it directly. It has no sense making it in steps

Re: Image Merging in CakePHP

I would recommend using Imagine or the Imagine plugin for CakePHP I've written that acts as a wrapper around the lib to make it useable in the a CakePHPish way. Imagine is a very good image processing lib that abstracts the different APIs very well.

Is it possible to merge/flatten the images so that I am just left with one that can be downloaded? If so, how would I go about it?

Re: Sharing one Cake application with many domains, each with its own database

That only works if all are upgrade and deployed with the very same cake core version.

But if thats the case, you can use a single app

For smaller websites using the same core I always just had a single instance of it (without any symlinking or other setup) - zero configuration needed:

ROOT/app1

ROOT/app2

ROOT/app... (to unfinitiy)

ROOT/lib/Cake

ROOT/plugins

ROOT/vendors

On the other side, a cake core (without tests and other baggage) is only 2MB. Wouldn't be that big of an overhead if you got the deployment scripts for automation.

Re: Image Merging in CakePHP

Use imagick (imagemagick) and its functionality to do that

Re: how to get cache file name in arabic language

That is going to be tied to the OS the files are on. Most Linux webservers won't support that charset. You will need to come up with another way
