Security login with local xampp server

Wappler General Need Help
1

Hello,

I am doing my first steps with Wappler and setup - according to the tutorials/docs - a security with login page.

Right now I have defined the following path with project/target:

project => C:\xdata - wappler\myProject
target => C:\xampp\htdocs\myProject

Both folder are being backed up on 2 other drives.

Where does Wappler save the project now?
Only within my project folder or is there an auto sync with my target folder?
How do I sync remote target (in my case a local xampp install)?

When I try to run the index.php and try to login, I am getting an error after I hit the submit button (see attached screenshot).

I would still like to understand the following:

  1. Is it possible to encryption password in database (MD5)?
  2. What field type in MySQL for encrypted password?
  3. How do I backup my entire projects the right way (folder, database)?
  4. How about the database…does wappler grab a database schema upon deploy or backup or do I need to save my database manual?

@WatchThatCode it looks like you didnt push the neccessary files to your xamp webserver folder. Go to your file structure (left panel) and push everything

  1. i used SHA256 (its an expression in your mysql insert window and press the :zap: flash arrow and click your encryption together) …dont go with MD5

  2. I used varchar(255) no need to use smth different.

  3. maybe go with dropbox or some onedrive

  4. use normaly phpmyadmin dump

Or even easier - just hit the publish button at the bottom of the screen :slight_smile:

@Freddy_Blockchain, SHA256 is always 64 characters long, best to use char(64) not varchar(255)

Normally, Wappler will also publish on the remote. When it comes to the likes of images that you have placed locally, you will have to push them to the remote. I have also come across other occasions where I have had to push files, off hand I can’t remember which. Style sheets seem to come to mind, but I am not sure.
