Noob Zend question
« on: December 10, 2009, 03:52:16 PM »
I am being tasked with taking over a project for a client that uses Zend Framework. I have never used it before, and I had a few questions:

What type of hosting service does it require? (Client currently has static html site on webhostingpad)
Do I have to run Zend Server on the host or are there other solutions?
Does Zend have a built in generator like RoR for MVCs?

  • You will need a host (preferably Linux/Apache)with php5 and most likely a database (mysql)
  • Zend server is not required, the above will cover it.
  • Zend comes with a command line interface that can create the directory structures required for controllers. It does not however provide any database crud.

Does that mean I can use a cheap host, or do I need shell access to it?

Yes you could, and no you shouldn't if you are even the least bit serious about whatever you are making.
