Coldfusion MX 7 and MySQL 4.0 upload and download

[AdonaiEchad]

Can someone tell me if there is a hosting company that serves ColdFusion MX 7
in Canadian Dollars not US. Also, I've created a ColdFusion MX 7 website for a
religious organization and I have been using MySQL 4.0 database instead of
Microsoft Access. I was talking to a fellow about is there any way that I can
upload my MySQL files and also download them when I want to back up the
database and all it's content. I was told to use myPHPAdmin. Now, I never
used myPHPAdmin. Doesn't ColdFusion have anything that I can use on my
computer to upload and download MySQL database? Right now, I have everything
on my hard drive and I want to upload the ColdFusion MX 7 files along with
MySQL 4.0 database to a ColdFusion MX 7 server or who ever the hosting company
is. Whether weekly or bi-weekly I need to make sometimes changes to the
database and to the document.cfm files every so often. Is there a program to
handle this? Thank you, AdonaiEchad

I don't know of any specific program similar to the one you are looking for.
I'd be surprised if you can actually get to the data files for mySQL on your
hosting box. All of hosting companies that I am familiar with used shared db
and the data files are not accessible by a regular user account. ColdFusion
will provide the ability to upload and download files (check out the cffile
tag), but the limiting factor isn?t ColdFusion, it?s accessibility to your data
files. What myPHPAdmin (a very nice tool) does is provide an interface to the
database. You could easily write this yourself if you need to. Or write a
little scheduled task (if your hosting company allows it) to gather new data
from your mySQL tables and write to a file. Then you can send this file back to
yourself via FTP or email.
