Don't do this - using one db for dev and live stores. While soing testing or developing you may create new language variables, or edit existing, or turn on/off modules, settings... All this will immediatelly reflect the live store

Pay attention to Windows machines. Today I found there is an issue with table names in XC database. The table names are case sensitive (e.g. xcart_images_M). At creation the table name will not be case sensitive (exception changing before global variable in mysql server lower_case_table_names = 1).

After you install v4.4.2 try uploading some images for Detailed , Magnifer, Category. Because QT changed in case sensitive, you will not be able to upload any image. It is normal, the script try finding xcart_images_M not xcart_images_m.

Really I don't understand this new situation in v4.4.2. Why using case sensitive in table names, when most of the programmers know it is a bad practice. Problems especially when try moving data between Windows - Unix machines. I am very disappointed seeing such of stupid issues. Why they switched to case sensitive now, without evaluating this new situation not recommended.
