- of course, Auntie Google
– Mats
- he hinted me at upcloud.com. They have an affordable, transparent yet powerful and scalable cloud platform for virtual servers & much more
- Mats’ step-by-step tutorial to set up a server and site at upcloud.com
- and his support in all the nitty gritty little problems arising along the way!
Thank you, Mats!
My last hick-up was trying to use the omnis_module with Nginx – but it works for Apache only.
Now my server is Apache only, no Nginx. And so far, I don’t seem to need Nginx’s reverse proxy, since Apache has the concept of virtual servers, which does the same for me: having multiple sites on one web server, being addressed either by different IPs or by different domains.
