Operating System: Microsoft Windows XP Professional Service Pack 3, running on VMWARE version 3 on a iMac OSX.
Bug Description:
Web projects published to an remote server using sub projects do not work. However they do work if they are published on localhost server.
Here is what breaks:
Security
.a5wcmp
Functions (.aex files)
.a5w pages
If the reason is that you need to run another server engine with another IP address then I would argue that this is a flaw in the design of the system. There are many reasons as to why you would need to deploy multiple projects/applications to one server. The main reason is from a organizational standpoint. If you try to use folders and keep multiple apps in one project (Accounting) (IT) (Sales) then you have to keep all of the a5wcomp and css style sheets in the root project directory. This gets incredibly difficult to manage. Additionally when you save any component or a5w page to a sub directory it becomes not functional.
When you import HTML and JavaScripts developed in a third party development tools they use sub folders liberally. So you are screwed from the start.
The next reason this is a huge issue is because I am developing for mobile phone applications. So I need to have a sub folder that is specifically for applications that are running for mobile. I have also created a separate web publishing project to handle this, and separate projects all together to test functionality.
If I have somehow missed the boat in how I have setup my files them please let me know.
I have attached a pdf with my notes on what I am seeing when I publish to the localhost and to a remote A5V10 web server.
Thanks,
