DigitalOcean VPS & Traccar using Windows
DigitalOcean doesn't provide Windows, as far as I know. Why do you want to use Windows for a server? It's usually more expensive because the Windows system itself is so heavy and uses a lot of resources.
For example, you can use Traccar on Linux with as little as 1-2GB RAM. But Windows with 2GB is completely unusable. You need at least double. We test our releases on Windows with 4GB and even then it's pretty slow.
Hi Anton
thank you for the prompt response, I don't really need to
I have installed Traccar on my PC and configured the devices to my public IP and port 5027 as indicated for Teltonika devices, I have also opened my laptop port 8082, and 5027. But I'm not receiving connection. Thought that using a VPS would solve the issue.
What would you recommend?
Best Regards,
If there are some network issues with your PC, then VPS should solve the problem. It will definitely be accessible.
Do you have any tutorials on how to setup a VPS for Traccar on windows based softwares??
There's no step by step guide, but the default installation should be pretty ok. Ideally you just need to change the database to something like MS SQL or MySQL. We have documentation for that.
Hi
I'm trying to open an account on DigitalOcean to use Traccar buy in your tutorial there is only the LINUX version, do you have a tutorial on how to work with Windows 10?
Best Regards,
