[SOLVED] IIS Issues

Thanks again for the help. IIS is much faster than Wamp is. Only problem is I am still using mysql from the wamp server. I already installed mysql using Microsoft Web Platform Installer, but the installation never officially finished, probably because I was running an instance of mysql using wamp. It says it is installed tho. I know how to export and import mysql databases, but I don't know how to start a mysql server from iis despite it saying it is installed. I just don't see a menu for it. How do we proceed?

Good work!

is it betaname|user or is it betaname\user? (my guess would be the second as the \ is used to differentiate between domain users)

One would normally think that, but no I did not make a typo. You need to use " | " and not " \ " .

Edit: Found the Post explaining this. You can find it at https://www.iis.net/configreference/system.ftpserver/serverruntime/hostnamesupport

Thank you for the link.

How odd, I have multiple FTP sources set up on IIS servers and have always either used just the username or domain\username :huh:
 
Note this in the opening paragraph:

I didn't set useDomainNameAsHostName to true, so I was forced to use the pipe character. If I had set it to true, then I could have just put a username.

I saw that and was a little confused as it shows syntax like domain\user but not just user.
 
Its not too bad. The reason why I moved is because My internet's upload speed dropped from 50mbits to 5mbits (curse you time warner cable) and for some reason IIS loads php faster than wamp does. On wamp, it was taking 4-6 seconds to access any of the pages while signed in. When logged in, it doesnt send cached static files to save bandwidth and instead loads it dynamically through php. If im an anonymous user, then it loads the cached static files in a 2 seconds. Load times on IIS are much better now, where logged in takes around 2 and a half seconds.Anonymous is about half a second faster. I notice there is alot of Waiting on Betaleaf.net before it actually starts to load. Any ideas how to shorten that down?
 
Yeah give me a few minutes to do some digging.

The biggest thing you will want to do is load of all the heavy files from elsewhere if you can.

Big one: Javascript files

You should be able to load most of those off a CDN like googles/amazons: https://developers.google.com/speed/libraries/?hl=en

A decent chunk of the delay is from slow access:

Not a whole lot you can do about that, you might try prioritizing the traffic on your router. But I wouldn't spend too much time here.

I would focus on the first one and outsource the JS files and possibly the images as well then reanalyze afterwards.

Yea I was looking into Amazon's CDN service but I am poor and don't have alot of money, thus the downgrade in speed. Is there any free solution available?

Tons, most javascript libraries are hosted freely by the vendor and by google.

If your site does not get tons of traffic you can upload the images to places like photobucket/imageshack/google.

If you have amazon prime you get a free 5gb drive you could use to host some of them.

I don't have any priority settings on my router, however, I use software called NetBalancer to manage my network's bandwidth. The System task which hosts the mysql, ftp, and html server is priortized already.

Ah ok, In that case, my mom has amazon prime. I can use her account. She doesn't use the storage anyways. I got mom and dad set up with office 365 which comes with 1TB of OneDrive Storage(which she still wont use lol). I personally love the fetch feature. Flash drives are dead. Anyways, I'll look into it tomorrow, and try to set it up. If I need help, Ill come here. Should I make a new post or use this one?
