After many days of testing, installing the latest systems we can confirm the features and server software on our ColdFusion services:
- CentOS 5 32Bit
- LxAdmin/Kloxo Control Panel (Same as our Railo hosting)
- ColdFusion 9 Enterprise
- MySQL 5
- PHP 5
- PHP Ming Enabled
- FFmpeg
Why 32Bit operating system, the main reason is due to the control panel we want to use. LxAdmin/Kloxo is supported mainly for 32bit and as we want to provide the most stable solutions possible.
Once we have tested each area is working fine and we are happy with these systems we will release the beta stage of our services to a select group of users to test and play. This will be done this week hopefully, if you would like to register your interest for the beta testing please contact us.
Please note some tags will be restricted such as “cfexecute”, “cfregister”, “cfobject” etc for security reasons.
UPDATE: 31/August/2010 : 13:58 UK TIME
We have had a few questions about ColdFusion datasource names (DSN) and how the process will be in creating them, as unlike Railo users will not able to have access to the Admin area of ColdFusion. Well the answer from our tech team is nice and simple, we will be creating an online form which all users that have ordered ColdFusion hosting will be able to access to create DSN’s within the client area of Host Media UK. We will later look into developing a Kloxo control panel addon to manage datasource names.
This will be released soon after the public release of the hosting and for the mean time anyone who requires a DSN created will be able to open a support ticket with the database details so our team can manually create one for you.
