machines. Even offered to show them how to setup IIS, install CF, etc on
their boxes. Anyone that we did catch developing was contacted and
warned. After so many warnings, you get moved to a "penalty box" for 30
days. If they still can't make their code stable after that, we ask them
to please find another host. I would rather loose one customer on a
server than 30.
It is hard to police though. I just spend a lot of time looking at
performance graphs and error logs.

No, you are correct in my opinion. Production servers are for tested
applications, not development. I get into this argument with my provider
all
the time.... especially when the servers become unresponsive due to
someone
developing on them.
In an ideal world you would have any errors generated in your production
environment logged or emailed so that you could remedy the problem in a
development and/or test environment then move the changes to production
once
you were confiedent they worked. This is all SOP usually, but hosting
companies have a hard time enforcing the "no development" rule in a
shared
environment.
Oh well...

Subject: CF Administration Best Practices on Production Servers
Hi All,
I just want to check myself here to make sure I'm based in reality.
It would be considered a best practice to turn off debugging on
production servers, correct? My host has it turned on to help
developers
test their code. They insist I must turn it off using cfsetting. I've
been arguing, unsuccessfully, that they should not allow people to
test/develop their sites on "production" servers.
So, am I completely off-base or is this considered bad?
