I am trying to copy one account from another server through the option "Copy an account from another server with password" in WHM but after filling server ip, username and password it starts trasnfering and showing me dosts like below :-
I have a dedicated managed server (with liquidweb) with Cpanel and WHM.
I want to duplicate a database that I have in one account over to another account on the same server.
Usually the way I would do that is to use the Cpanel Backup tool, download the database from the first account and then restore it on the second account.
This time however the database is fairly large and my connection is not very fast, so downloading, and then uploading the database backup would take ages.
There is a directory with many files and subdirectories. I want to copy ALL the filesnames beginning with post-1111 to another folder. What is the command to do this?
I am having a hosting account with old host which is limited to 10 GB, and there i am having a mysql Database which is of 2 GB, i want to move it to new host via SSH ... as that Database can not be downloaded via phpmyadmin due to its size.
So i want to "tar" the mysql directory and ssh/scp to new host!...
I am applying this command...
tar -cvf r.tar /var/lib/mysql/in_supp | ssh user@newhost.com
But i am getting errors,
Please give me a command which can move my entire Database dump to new server, without creating any copy at old server "as i do not have any space there"
is there a way to copy mysql from an existing db, and then renaming it to another name?
I would like to copy my current db from a live forum site, and because I got a test forum but I need that test forum to use my current live db...but i want it to use a copy of the live db. The db has to be a different name for the test site. Sorry hard for me to explain.
Is there an easy way to do that? I would do it via cpanel backup and upload but the db is 2gb's gzip....
Did anyone ever had an issue, when you click fetch accounts list and it displays 0 packages and 0 accounts? Even if there are hundreds of accounts in server.
We seem to be doing a lot of this lately with clients upgrading to larger hard drives, etc.
I'm curious as to what works best for most folks that do have physical access to their servers when copying drives in servers, like when upgrading to larger hard drives or replacing a hard drive.
I know there are "hardware" drive copiers, but what about software methods?
Especially when upgrading both hard drives in a dual hard drive server.
a way to preserve folder/file permissions in a windows environment. We are copying files from one drive to another on one of our servers. It's crucial to preserve the permissions - but i've done some research and can't find any way to get this done...
Anybody familiar with any methods on how to approach this? We're running windows 2003 server.
I've been searching for the best way to copy a file, say .htaccess, to multiple users dir, tried "cp -f .htaccess /home/*/public_html" but received an error "omitting dir /home...."
I get error while copying accounts from Plesk to Cpanel and hence the emails are not copied though the data is copied. The error goes like this
pXa Copying Mail files....ERROR 1064 at line 1: You have an error in your SQL syntax near 'SELECT cl_id FROM domains WHERE id = 1018 )' at line 1
I am running Plesk 8.01 and the latest stable release of Cpanel. Is it because of the Plesk version I have? If yes, then what should be the Plesk version?
I recently bought a VPS and set up everything for it manually (apache, php, mysql). I had an old host which I got my files and MySQL database from. I have successfully copied them all over and imported the .sql file. I have also checked my config options and updated them to the new settings.
However, when I go to my site, I just get a blank, white screen. The site is fine because a test file that doesn't use my phpBB installation from before renders properly as well as the index.php file from the ./install/ directory of phpBB. If it was a connection problem with MySQL, I would assume that it would print some sort of error stating that it can't connect.
Here are some steps that I've tried so far (I would use a list here but I supposedly need five posts):
* chmod 777 on my entire /var/www/html/ directory.
* chown /var/www/html/ to the apache user, which is the one running the apache webserver.
* Checking error logs and not finding anything that seemed catastrophic (i.e. just notifications about a favicon being missing).
* Editing the .htaccess file to be empty.
At this point, I don't know what to do. I am willing to reinstall phpBB properly, although I would really rather not, and I imagine that there's some way to salvage my previous installation. If you're wondering why I'm posting here instead of the phpBB forums, it's because I have a hunch that it's more likely related to my installing MySQL, Apache and PHP.
My site is apollorp (dot) org (I would link here but I need five posts). As a test, try going to apollorp (dot) org (slash) test (dot) php, which should work.
A customer would like to move his hosting from another host to me. But the other host does not want to cooperate and give me access to the panel or files. Threw the customer I did get the ftp information, and within the config file I have the database username and password.
How is it possible to copy the database, without having the hosting panel access?
I want to be able to copy 1000's of files from one subscription to another or rather from one domain to another on the server without having to FTP them each time. Is there a way which this can be done directly in Plesk and avoid the need to ftp the same 1000's of files into each subscription ? FTPing on my connection is really slow and takes 2-3 for each subscription / domain, whereas if I could just FTP to the server once and then copy&paste the files between subscriptions then this would save me a huge amount of time...
I'm having a problem when copying folders into another folder using the same name.e.g. there's a folder called css in httpdocs/backup/css and also httpdocs/css. However, I'm trying to restore the backup and actually copy the /css dir from httpdocs/backup to httpdocs. Plesk should overwrite the existing target css dir (and its content/files) in httpdocs/css. However, Plesk creates a new css dir inside httpdocs/css so I have the "original" httpdocs/css dir content intact and also the css dir (from httpdocs/backup/css) copied into httpdocs/css so the full path is httpdocs/css/css
I'm highlighting the httpdocs (not /css dir) in the File manager - Copy Files window. I've tried that on a few installs and experiencing issue on each of them. Please see the attached screenshots.
Step 1. Select (check) the css dir and click copy (or move, result is the same)
Step 2. Mark the httpdocs dir (it doesn't matter if you click the Replace existing files checkbox)
Step 3. Final result, css dir from httpdocs/backup copied into httpdocs/css/
I've compared the dir content several times and definitely the css dir from httpdocs/backup is copied to httpdocs/css so the full path would be: http docs/css/css and the original "old" files from css will remain there.
I've been happily copy databases between subscriptions in Plesk 11.5xx for years but having updated to 12 the feature no longer works.
In the copy database screen when the 'local MySQL server' option is selected in the drop down the 'Copy to existing database' radio button is disabled.
My service provider tells me this is a feature change.
I've noticed I've been getting a lot of "Copying to tmp table" and from a google search this is bad. Any idea on how I can fix this in my shared hosting environment?
i am trying to transfer an account from one server back onto my server.
however it keeps telling me that there is already an account with the same name on my server when trying to copy all the data over.
I have deleted the dns entries of the account on my server but the account name still appears in the ip useage etc and it's stopping me from doing a cpanel transfer from the other server to my server.
does anyone know how i go about delete all records of the account name on my server....most likely it'll involve a ssh command
tried this but still didn't work...
/usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.conf << remove the VirtualHost entry for the domain. /etc/named.conf /etc/trueuserdomains /etc/userdomains /var/named/domainname.db << remove this file. /etc/valiases/domainname << remove this file. /var/cpanel/users/username << remove this file.
Restarted apache and named service.....still can transfer the account because my server says username exists in the system.
I have resell account on one server. I just buy resell account from surpasshosting.com and i wont to move my account from the old one to surpasshosting.com . Well surpasshosting are helipng me to restore full backup for the accounts but there is a bigger problem.

I have heard i can do some trick with DNS Zones
