Comment on CFX_PayFlowPro Installation by jmandala

This is a good question. I’m used to using the password “changeit” from managing tomcat servers. That’s what I used. I have a feeling any password might work, but certainly “changeit” did the trick.

Let me know if that works.

I’m sure there’s a legitimate reason for requiring passwords, but I imagine that requiring passwords that are not really securing anything is by design an insecure practice. Proliferation of passwords creates noise. Increasing the noise to signal ratio makes things harder to understand, manage and secure.

While installing the Certs in CFMX using

cd runtime/jre/bin

./keytool.exe -import -keystore ../lib/security/cacerts -file facacbc6.cer -alias verisignfacacbc6

it asks for a password. How do you obtain these?

Comment on SugarCrm Community vs SugarCrm Commercial by jmandala

Thanks for your reply, Josh.

When you say that the contacts module is the same in all versions, I’m guessing you mean that the features and/or code are identical?

Since I’m new to Sugar, can you let me know how mature the Studio and Module Builder features are? From what I can gather in testing it looks like these feature let a web user create some pretty sophisticated apps. Coming from an app development background, this is a pretty significant achievement!

Have you built custom modules with Sugar in your consulting gigs? What are some examples? Is it as straightforward as it seems, or are there limitations that show up as soon as you try to build a production quality module?

I would love to hear your feedback!

Also, since this a pretty new blog, I’m curious about how you found it?

Cheers,

Joshua

First I would like to mention that the contacts module is the same in all versions which differs from what you have stated.

Secondly it is great to hear that you tried SugarCRM I use it personally and do SugarCRM consulting.

What I enjoy most about SugarCRM is that it is open and with enough time I can make it function in almost any way that I need. I also enjoy that a small business can get started on a CRM package for little to no cost and keep it as their business grows.
