I've been trying out CCS as a way to develop Web apps in PHP for MySQL (on an Apache server). It looks promising, but one (little?) thing has got me stumped:
How can I get it to show me the "Live Page" and then publish it to my Web server?
I've installed the MySQL ODBC driver and succeeded in connecting to my MySQL server. I put the tutorial's Employees database on the server and everything worked as advertised until I hit the Live Page button. Then I got these message:
Generating Common Files
Generating "Default"
Error: Local Server Path is not provided
...and the page was not displayed. I'm confused. I don't have a "local server path" because my MySQL server is on a remote machine. Does one have to run a Web server on the same machine as CCS in order to see live data?
Oh, and when I publish it to my Webserver, the FTP process works correctly, but the pages don't look right. The data is not being imported into the pages. As you can see here:

Thanks for any illumination!

Through e-mail, I learned:
1. "Error: Local Server Path is not provided"
In order to get rid of this error please do the following:
In the Publish settings, set the 'Location' field 'Local/Network' then in the 'Server Path' enter the same path that is entered for 'FTP' and finally switch the location field back to 'FTP' and publish your project again.

That's because you are viewing the template file (*.html) while you should view the script file (*.php).
