    I have made my first project in Revo after several Evo projects.
    I developed it on Xampp. everything went very well. (except downloading Add-ons which do not work on Xampp)

    When I installed it on my host (one.com) It became very slow. in frontend as in the manager!
    Can this be because the MySQL version is MySQL 5.0.51a? I asked the Hostprovider if they could upgrade; "We are in a process of upgrading. We hope it will be updated very soon"
    I asked defintion of soon : no clear answer....

    So what are the dangers of having MySQL 5.0.51a and can this be the reason of my slow site?
    You can find out the slowly-ness here : http://www.grafical.be

      Would have nothing to do with the database. You’ll need to provide more information about your environment for anyone to diagnose why it is so very slow. Wow that’s slow. undecided

        I know it’s slow... That doesn’t realy help my business rolleyes

        First of all I have to mention that I was not able to install it on my server the way it is mentioned in the wiki.
        (uploading all files, changing config file, importing db, running setup again)
        When I did, I did get errors that my folder "connectors" and "assets" where not created in "connectors" and "assets" folders.
        So what I did, is remove everything from my server, putting a clean install on it. Then dropping the complete db, and importing the one from my Xampp.
        Of course I also copied my personal files like the css and images in the appropriate location.
        It works... but not that fast... Also the backend is really slow! sometimes a minute to save a page...

        Is it ok to paste the whole "system info" here?

        Thanks for the help OpenGeek wink

              Something is wrong with your server configuration; specifically it appears your open_basedir settings are broken. You need to discuss this with your hosting company/server administrator

                thanks for the reply.
                I contacted the chatsupport of one.com
                they verified my openbase_dir settings. Everything is OK. He also said that the restriction cannot be removed.


                Because I have very little experience with server settings etc... I have 3 questions :
                1. How come I did not ever had issues with a Evo installation / move from localhost to live host at my other projects?
                2. What should be the correct server settings then for Revo to work properly ?
                3. did you base your reply on this part of the error log?
                [2010-11-30 00:32:00] (ERROR @ /customers/grafical.be/grafical.be/httpd.www/core/model/modx/modmanagerresponse.class.php : 334) PHP warning: file_exists(): open_basedir restriction in effect. ( I just want to learn how to analyse the error-log)

                General question to all readers : Who is also hosting a domain at one.com, and is using Revo install?

                Thanks for the help

                  I just got off a chat session with their support and it seems they are following Debians release schedule and will update to 5.1 when the Debian guys do. From what I can tell, the version they’re using (Lenny) still doesn’t consider 5.1 to be stable. I sure hope I’m wrong about that. Still doesn’t change the fact that they aren’t upgrading, though... sad

                    FYI, to get Package Manager to work with XAMPP, you need to enable cURL:

                    In xampp\php\php.ini

                    Uncomment this line (remove the semicolon) to enable cURL:

                    ;extension=php_curl.dll
