I'm trying to think a system where 2 identical turnkey application are runned in a failover manner,
but right now I dont know which is the best way to do it.
My thinking was something like ... installl the first copy turnkey app "Gemini Version" and on the install set "master" , install a second copy of the same app "Gemini version" and on the install set "slave and insert the IP of the master and a password for accessing the master.
when the master fail the slave will take over like an heartbeat cluster.
I have a robust windows 2003 server running a few web apps at a co-lo provider. I have some linux oriented apps that I would love to host for myself and friends, and was considering running a VMWARE server instance and a LAMP appliance to get it. I have only used virtualization at my desktop and never at a server. If resources were sufficient, would this be a reasonable method? I am trying to avoid colo-ing another box, or VPS fees for some very simple apps (bug tracker, small forum, etc.)
I am new to using Turnkey. Just now using Joomla appliance and liking it. I was curious if there is an Amahi or Windows Home Server equivalent appliance or is there anyone working on one?
Like LAMP and LAPP, but this time it includes Sqlite along with a Sqlite management interface. It's a lightweight alternative when a full blown sql server is not required.
Default accounts:
Administrator: admin/admin
Data Manager: data/data
User: guest/guest
The new tklpatch changes are really nice. I added some functions that others may find useful to the tips and tricks area of the tklpatch documentation. The page may be getting too long though. Maybe the page should be broken up, or as suggested earlier, put on the dev wiki. I think that it used to be there, but I can't find it. Maybe others have some functions that could be useful?
first of all thank you for TurnKey Linux and tklpatch (two excellent products).
I made a web2py patch to be applied to the LAPP appliance that runs the web2py admin interface. This allows development/deployment/testing and debugging of Python MVC web apps directly from the browser.
I could use some help with testing and some feedback.
So we decided to turn our project to Open virtual appliances based on TurnKey Core and try to collaborate with this community.
Our first work has been XMail Server (XMail Server 1.25 + PHPXMail 1.5 + Uebimiau 2.7.2). It has been build as a VMware Virtual Machine and you can download it from http://www.megaupload.com/?d=S1W7XCTE
Just wanted to thank you for the outstanding work!
I had to play with making some sweeping and dangerous changes to some MySQL/PHP things - too dangerous for the production site, and too dangerous even for the test box (if I didn't want to have to rebuild it). Virtual Machine + Turnkey LAMP + a couple of tweaks. I had my answers.
Such a nice package, and so slick I'm thinking of using it for the backbone of my next production site. Bravo!!! Job well done!
