Week 6

Title: Weekly Activities, Meeting

Date: 11/12/2018 - 11/18/2018

Place: Home, Mihir's Home

Accomplishments

- Met with Mihir to solve the existing problem on client contact informations page. We discussed the overall project schema in Visual Studio and investigated the working process. Like routing configurations, linking techniques.
- Tested together project in Azure. Created a copy project in Azure in order to detect the problem. So, the problem is not such a problem like name conflicting that I mentioned last week. But the data is not uploaded to Azure.
- We focused on to move the project data, tables to Azure. Therefore, we created a new SQL database to hold client information table and data. We have tried to connect the SQL database to project, but we did not at this stage.
    - But I believe, we are close to solve.

Problems

- The problem is still being continued.

TODO

- Continue to connect database to project, so the data fields may become visible in real webpage. That may solve the problem(Hope so).
- May work on text messaging. Search something on that.

Week 5

Title: Weekly Activities

Date: 10/5/2018 - 11/11/2018

Accomplishments

- Created a database for holding informations about clients for now and if necessary for later, other things will be hold here. This database is in role for back-hand of the project.
- Created a SQL table that holds the client data after filling and submitting the ClientInformations form under here.
- Made some researches to solve the existing problem from last week.
  - It may be a name confliction problem, because the file name of the page is the same with the name of the home page. 
  - Another theory is that printing the data from filled forms. Maybe there is a problem with print those to screen in online. This page works well in localhost, but not during running on the Azure website.

Problems

- The problem on Client Contact Informations page is still being continued.

TODO

- Find other solutions to solve the existing problem on client contact informations page. If not, contact with Mihir to solve.
- Database and SQL table will be integrated with the existing project. After submitting the form, the data will be hold in SQL table.
- Need to be faster than now. Presentation is coming.

Week 2

Title: Weekly Activities

Date: 10/15/2018 - 10/21/2018

Accomplishments

Downloaded the project from Mihir's GitHub account, organized my Visual Studio according to project requirements and tried to run on my computer.

- Searched some server providers that may host the project. 
    - Microsoft Azure and Amazon Web Services are free for a year and provides some cool stuffs, like the amount of storage, bandwidth etc. 
    - IIS for Windows is another option. 
    - Last week, Mihir told me to search Hostgator, another server provider. It has a montly cost to store the project, but it is also providing some cool specifications.

I organized all the best results. Started to learn something on ASP.NET MVC Application. Watched some videos the create a basic MVC App and read some documents for ASP.NET.

Problems

The project did not run on my computer. I think some folders are not found in the project path.
