Migration to the other side
Posted: Fri Jul 23, 2004 4:53 pm
All my sites I've developed in PHP have been done on Mac OSX running Apache, and most of them interface with MySQL too. Some of the sites allow uploading of pictures and use sendmail to well, send mail.
The finished sites run without hassle on our main Linux server.
Now the bad news.
My company recently got bought out by a bigger company who run MS stuff exclusively. So apart from the fact I'm facing the loss of my job at some point in the future, I'm expected to begin migrating everything over to IIS and MSQL.
They're going to install PHP for me for the time being but it looks like I'm going to have to do some script modification. Can someone advise me of the things which I'm routinely going to have to start changing. Things like permissions of folders for uploads. I have no idea how to do that stuff on Windows. I have ZERO exposure to IIS or MSQL.
Oh BTW, any jobs going doing PHP, JS, [X]HTML, CSS, MySQL in the Britain area? Can work remotely.
