Thanks whiteflour I'll PM you when I have it ready. Yes we have considered it and plan to make it an option in the near future as it wouldn't be that difficult to implement since both can use Linq as the datasource. We didn't want to make it the only option because people with only 1 computer might not want to install a database server locally.

I host my own website. If I had a "secret" unlisted directory, would my database work from there just fine? Will you be able to make an Android App (iPhone?) and that way, either on the PC or on the mobile App, all data would be the same and there wouldn't need to be syncing, unless you can do syncing either: A) via the same network (like when the PC and mobile app are connected to the same router), or, B) if the database behind it must be installed locally because they don't have my technical setup, maybe have an option for using DynDns, so the app can have a custom URL to link it to the PC app/database. DynDns is nice because it offers a free pc app that updates the DynDns database with your computers current IP address, which I find with most providers IP remain the same for a very long time. Days to weeks, maybe even months in a couple of personal instances. It helps greatly. I've even recently switch to FiOS. 25mbps each for up and download speeds. With this becoming the norm, I can foresee many people have personal home servers to handle all kidns of personal database-ing. :-)

Wanted to let everyone know about a project I started called HERB.IQ, is open source and completely free. We currently have 2 developers and 2 bug testers working on the project including myself. We just put out our first stable release today, you can get it on our main site at sourceforge or our backup site on codeplex:

https://sourceforge.net/projects/herbiq

Thanks!

Trying to install .net 4 and I get an error and cant install it? 0x80070643...any ideas?
Try running this from a command prompt with admin rights

secedit /configure /cfg %windir%\inf\defltbase.inf /db defltbase.sdb /verbose

Then try to install .net again

Was on the phone with microsoft tech support for 6 hours last night trying to install framework 4. They uninstalled all of my framework, and could reinstall none of it. After 3 hours today they are sending me a new version of windows 7 ultimate. I also asked for the 9 hours of my life back...for that they had no response.

Sorry to hear that, let me know if there is anything else I can do to help.

Thanks mate, you are perhaps the most dedicated person I have ever seen in a forum. I really appreciate the alacrity for which you respond, and I wish I had waited for your line of code fix b4 I contacted microsoft. Well at any rate I can hardly wait to utilize your software, it seems pure genius. I'll let you know how it shakes out when I get my new install. Thanks again mate.

I'm going to be releasing an update to the windows version of herb.iq in the next couple days. This new version will include support for a stand alone asp.net capable webserver (XSP). The ASP.NET version of herb.iq will also be included and can be turned on with the click of a button with the built in web server support.

You'll be able to start up the winapp, hit the button to turn on the webserver and go into your grow with your mobile device (tablet,phone,etc) and update your datafile back on your pc with the web version (assuming you have a wireless network that goes that far). They both share the same datafile this way so there is no need to sync anything.

I also updated the web version and added support for uploading pictures, just like the datafile when you come back to your pc after snapping pics and uploading them they will already by there attached to the plant in the windows app. I still plan on releasing a native android/ios app, this is separate from that and supports any device with a web browser (iphone/ipad/andoid/blackberry).

there's over 133 pages, this is so awesome and so ridiculous at the same time. Is there some kinda write-up or wiki for this greatness? if not I suggest that a good idea, Id be willing to help as well. Also I see there is mac support but what about Linux :(, anyway we can get this to python or Linux someway, willing to help here too. could this tech. work with mono?
Sorry for poor formatting, I'm practically sleeping on my keyboard.
