* For Ubuntu:

sudo apt-get install fuse-utils sshfs

* For Fedora and Centos:

yum install fuse-utils sshfs

You will then need to choose and make a directory to mount the ftp storage location to. We’ll use /mnt/remote for our example:

sudo mkdir /mnt/remote
sudo chown [system-user]:[your-group] /mnt/remote/

Next you will add yourself to the fuse group:

sudo adduser [system-user] fuse

Now you will connect and mount the ftp storage location:

sshfs ftp-user@ftp.domain.com: /mnt/remote/

Note: ftp.domain.com will be either ftp1.ftptoyoursite.com, ftp2.ftptoyoursite.com or ftp.domain.com depending on how you connect to ftp.

Additionally you can specify a remote path to mount such as www.domain.com/web/content.

sshfs ftp-user@ftp.domain.com:www.domain.com/web/content/ /mnt/remote/

You will now be asked to accept the key from our system and then for your ftp user password.

Once mounted you can cd to your mounted directory and perform many basic commands that do not require root access including but not limited to:

tar   gzip     gunzip     zip      unzip   chmod

You may also want to update the /etc/fuse.conf file to include a line such as below to ensure you do not lose connection while working:

ServerAliveInterval = 300

Hello Folks,

I was trying to install modx with wamp server, but I find a strange problem while installing the modx on wamp server.
Error:

Checking MySQL client version: Failed!

MODx will have issues on your MySQL version (5.0.51a), because of the many bugs related to the PDO drivers on this version. Please upgrade MySQL to patch these problems. Even if you choose not to use MODx, it is recommended you upgrade to this version for the security and stability of your own website

Solution:
1. Run Wampserver in its default state with PHP 5.3.0 selected. And it will work without any problem.

2. Still problem arise then download Xampp Server
it works perfectly with xampp server.

All the best.
