We’re happy to add Sydney, Australia to the worldwide locations of Xojo Cloud servers. That makes nine cities that you can host your Xojo Cloud web apps in. Offering worldwide coverage for Xojo Cloud makes it easier to get your Xojo web applications close to the users that are using them, improving the speed and overall experience for your users.

Most Xojo Cloud users have already switched to the newer Xojo Cloud servers. These new servers have more RAM and SSDs and are the priced lower or the same as our previous servers. But moving your projects from one server to another is easier said than done. You’ll need to plan carefully to avoid downtime. Here is a simple change you can make to your DNS settings in order to limit downtime, making the move to a better server smoother.
Comments closedIf you log into a Xojo Cloud server with an FTP client and have your app make changes to that server (such as creating or deleting files or folders), your FTP client will NOT see those changes, even after a refresh. This applies to Xojo Cloud or apps you have on another server.

Though increasingly rare, we do still hear from Xojo users who get false positives from their anti-virus software when downloading Xojo or running Xojo applications. We’ve even heard of this occurring when users are debugging apps from the IDE. To get around this, you can refer to the documentation for your anti-virus software on how to exclude Xojo from scans. To fix these issues for yourself and future Xojo users, we ask that you report these occurrences to your anti-virus software makers.
