Hallo guys, I'm starting to study the majestic Umbraco Cms, I really love it!
Now I'd like to move online a basic website on my hosting space (TopHost)... The problem is, I already tried with Webmatrix by IIS but I was not able to do it, I take always the same error, connection timeout. But I've verified the right user and password of my webserver, and I used Ftp like transfer method. I''m a bit confused, in another post the suggestion was to not upload all Umbraco package folders, and I'm too surprised about the weight of a final Umbraco website....45Mb? Is right?
I hope to don't be stupid with my questions, but I appreciate a lot if someone can explain me the right way to do it, I'm a web designer with basics knowledges about Databases and related stuff, but I'd love to make Umbraco my new developing amazing way to build websites. I need a step to step guide to make my websites working on host space,
Thanks a lot for everybody will help me!!
Ability to set file permissions to include create/read/write (or better) for the user that "owns" the Application Pool for your site (NETWORK SERVICE, typically)
IIS 7 is a webserver that runs on Windows OS, from windows 2008 and above, so your linux tophost plan is, unfortunately, unsuitable to host umbraco.
Among theItalian hosting providers,there areveryfewthat providehosting planscompatiblewithUmbraco: soI think that it is better to rent aWindows VPSwhere to installUmbraco.
Thanks Davide, I'm a bit confused....I'm web developer/designer working on a project that will use a website for customizable templates that will include inside lot of websites....that's my question...So if a customer will ask me to update the company website that's working on apache server I need to ask to migrate on Windows platform....right? With Times for hostname migration very relevant as you know....As well Umbraco see not so Server Friendly....I'm a handcode web developer and using bootstrap I've not this problem...my websites are working perfectly on all web platforms....what do you suggest me? I'd like to learn and study Umbraco it's so powerful! But, I need to choose the best way to achieve my targets. Thanks for your answers, if you have some nice suggestion about let me know! Thanks Davide;)

Ciao Giuseppe and Happy 2015!
Can I ask you some question?
- Which kind of hosting package do you have on tophost and which version of Windows does it have?
- Which version of Umbraco are you trying to install?
Davide
OS LINUX WEBSERVER APACHE Php 5.4.4
I'm trying to move live a local installed empty package...of Umbraco 7.2
Thanks Davide, but are you italian?;)
Yes, i'm italian! :)
As reported in this page: http://our.umbraco.org/documentation/Installation/system-requirement, Umbraco 7.x needs:

So I can't use Umbraco to go live on server Linux? Only Windows servers? Thanks
Sorry for the delay in answer, Giuseppe.
I fear that you're right: windows servers only can run Umbraco.
is working on a reply...
