Apache :: Setting Up Free Dns Service For Local Web Server
Jan 26, 2013
*My computer is a computer of a 500 computers network within our company.
* i have been given a STATIC local intranet ip 192.168.10.168 assigned by our IT department via their router.
* i have the internet facility provided through the above mentioned intranet for which i get a dynamic ip ex: 188.54.208.205, 176.44.107.21
* i have installed WAMP server.
my current project for the company i am doing should be able to access via internet in addition to the local access. local access is the primary access method. so now i have installed a free dns service like dyndns. at the setup of that, i have choosen a free subdomain ex: my.freedns.com they offer. then i assigned the ip ex:188.54.208.205. also installed their desktop client for monitoring ip changes auto updates.
Now the problem is : when i hit my.freedns.com the page displaying is of our internet service provider. not of my project homepage . How can i fix so when i issue above subdomain it will show my webserver default page?
I have a busy dating website with 30 000 registered users and ~200-600 users online all the time. I would like to offer free email with ~10 MB mailbox to all users.
I have an idea to use scripts provided by b1gmail.de. Its similar to Hivemail or Socketmail. It uses only one POP3 catch-all mailbox and stores all emails in MySQL database, including attachments.
My worries are about MySQL. If I have 30 000 users and each user has some 5000 messages in his/her mailbox: 30 000 x 5 000 = 150 000000
That's 150 million rows in one table!
I know, not all users will have 50000 messages in their mailboxes, but the number of users increases about +2000/month.
I can't imaggine how long time will need MySQL to find messages for each user in the table with 150 000000 rows.
I don't know - maybe it's not a problem at all. I just never had such large tables and I don't know if it's possible at all.
Another problem: I have Fedora Core 2 installed and even don't know yet if it supports files larger than 2 GB.
Maybe it's better to set-up normal POP3 mailboxes for all users instead of using one catch-all box and storing data in MySQL?
do not post warnings about spammers. In the beginning I'll provide email addresses only to "gold" members. I opened this thread because I don't want to set-up a system which will hang after a couple of months because MySQL will not be able to handle it or I will have other unknown problems.
I'm trying to accomplish two goals: First, get "Pretty Links" to work on my local Wordpress instance; second, to set up a local domain for the site.I have a fresh install of Apache 2.4.6 running, and I'll I've done is enable the rewrite and vhost_alias mods. Nevertheless, here's my apache2.conf: URL....
I need to have AllowOverride set to All. This, I gather, allows .htaccess files within the subsequent directories to alter the apache config. To try one thing at a time, I'm accessing the site from localhost/var/www/dhae/Wordpress (foregoing the domain). I tried altering the 000-default.conf to oblige this: [URL] .... -- all I added was the <Directory> section. This didn't work, and neither did changing the AllowOverride to All in the apache2.conf.
I wondered if perhaps I needed something more specific to the directory, so I tried using my second goal to accomplish this. I wrote the dhae.conf: URL....
I've also added the following line to my HOSTS file:127.0.0.1 dhae.dev
This hasn't worked either. I've tried virtual host config stuff as much as I could find, and I'm just not having any luck. What I have even came from this site (URL....).
I found a socket available other than 80 which would not allow me to use. I set it in the conf file as 1800 and then go to apache/bin directory and load httpd.exe. When I go to the browser, I have to type in http://localhost:1800 for it to work once. If I close the browser and try again, or I try a php file, it says it can't find localhost. I have to stop httpd.exe and reload, then it will work once.
Do I have to find a way to use socket 80 for it to work?
ive created myself a little test site and i mananged to host it with a server thats sitting behind a nat router by forwarding port 80 to it, this site can be accessed from outside my home network by entering the ip address of my router into internet explorer.
then i create myself a free host at no-ip.com and i used the .servegame.com option so its MySite.servegame.com.
it succesfully resolves to my ip becuese when i ping it from the wndows command line it pings the IP of my router.
but for some reason it cant be used to acces my site through a web browser.
the only thing i can think of is that it has somehhing to do with the "domain name" and "server name" fields that you have to fill in while installing apache although no matter what i put into those fields i can stil access my site using my routers IP.
I have a web server running Server 2003 and IIS6. I can access everything fine via IP. Now I want to have a domain name work with it.
The server is in a .local domain environment. Does anyone have any info on how I should setup DNS for the web server if the domain itself is not getting any DNS info from the outside?
Is it just a matter of adding new A and NS records or do I need to be in a FQDN domain for it to work?
I really had a hard time in setting red5 on my VPS in /usr/local/red directory, I have done all the installation steps but still the port tester does not show success, I am using centos5 with cpanel installed, i have the installation steps from red5 forum but pretty much unsure what needs to be done after installation
1. I have only iptables installed and even if I remove iptables the port tester does not work properely
I am 3 days new to figuring out how to get Perl scripts to run on my Windows XP box. I downloaded and installed the Apache installation file "httpd-2.0.65-win32-x86-openssl-0.9.8y.msi" and the "strawberry-perl-5.18.2.1-32bit.msi" from the perl.org site in hopes that I could get a feedback form to work for a web site that I am working on.
Out of the many pages that I have viewed online of how to configure the Apache Server, nothing has given any favorable results with their explanations.
My last attempt was [URL] ..... where I could not get the example to work. I did the changes to the Apache file "Edit the Apache httpd.conf Configuration File" fairly easily but I must be having problems with the test.pl because I can't get it to work.
I used a different version of Perl (Strawbery from perl.org because it installed without giving me an error pop up after installation) and after copy pasting the script, in an attempt to get it working, I ended up changing it in hopes that I could get it working, shown below.
where I assumed that "#!" meant the "C:" drive and substituted the first "/perl" with the folder the Strawbery Perl had installed itself to and left the second "/perl" in the first line thinking that it was referring to the executable in the "C:strawberryperlbin" folder.
This is the error I get when trying to get the script to run when typing "localhost/test.pl" in the address bar.
"Internal Server Error The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request. ........"
Know how I can change the title of this post to read "Configuring Apache HTTP Server 2.0 to run Perl in Windows"?
We have a community website and would like to integrate a messenger service into it so users can IM each other, preferably having audo and video capability.
There are a couple of providers like userplane and toksta that offer them for free. but wanted to know if there are any others that you know of as I would like to compare features and select the most reliable.
I am just trying to understand what I am doing wrong when I try to set up a second server with LAMP. I already have a working server with LAMP but i didn't set that one up. Now I am trying to add additional machine and I am trying to figure out what else do i have to do so the machine will work as virtual server for my webpage(s).
Like I said, on a new server i already installed Lamp, forwarded ports 80, 22, 442 ....to correct LAN IP, and added an entry under apache2 sites-available like this:
Than i connected a new domain to my main IP but it automaticly connects to the old server that is already running in my home network. So the question is what do i have to do, for my new server to run the webpages i want to? Do i have to add a specific command on old server or something else i forgot?
I use Pingdom "Pro" (or whatever the paid version is to be branded as), and I think it is fantastic. It is yet to let us down or misinform us. It'll be interesting to see whether we see quality dilution from the inevitable rush of freebie accounts.
I'm currently trying to setup a personal web hosting service for my friends where they get an area of web space, etc, for them to use. Basically, a free web hosting service, etc with PHP, and all possible.
Does anyone know how I could go about setting this service up? ( If I were to get a HostGator/webspace account, etc)
I can't believe the hours of BS I had to go through with Godaddy hosting to get a subdomain to work. Their online "help" is horrible, incorrect, and incomplete.
For people who may have this problem, here's what I had to go through:
You can go into "Domain Management" and "Add a Subdomain" and have it point to a specific directory. Fine. That's all well and good, but that in itself does nothing and their help implies that's all you have to do and you're set, boom you have a subdomain. Not so fast.
You have to go into your "DNS Manager" and add a CNAME record with the same name as your subdomain and have it point to @. So apparently you have to change the DNS first so web browsers recognize the subdomain and get redirected to your host, then the domain management "subdomain rule" kicks in and it knows to go to a certain directory.
The funny part is the customer cervice person knew none of this. He kept insisting I had to add an A record, obviously just reading from a script. And even if I did have to mess with my DNS settings to enable my subdomain why wasn't this in the "help" on your website? Unbelieveable.
I have a domain name from godaddy and recently got a host plan in hostgator.
As this is the first time I use hosting, it is very confusing how to set it up properly. So far what I figured out and was able to set is the DNS in godaddy and the add-on domain in hostgator.
So now I was able to point 'MyDomain' to direct to 'hostgatorDomain/MyFolder/' (names just for example).
The problem is that masking is not turned on and who ever clicks 'MyDomain' will get to the right location, but the address will change to 'hostgatorDomain/MyFolder/'.
It seems with the latest version of 2.2.24 I've had to change the ProxyPass address in http-virtualhosts to the actual address of the web server itself (Websphere / tomcat) and not the reversproxy (Apache). It seems like originally we had it looking like this more or less: ProxyPass / ajp://localhost:8009 but now have ProxyPass / ajp://webserverip:8009 and it's working that way. Which way is correct and if this isn't the correct way how do I fix this? I was getting 503 errors when it was connected to localhost (along with ajp errors) but I was able to telnet to the webserver on 8009 successfully.
to the httpd-manual.conf to enable access by other machines on my network but it seems to be hard coded to localhost only.
Is there something else I can add to httpd-manual.conf to enable it or do I need to copy manual folder to the htdocs folder and then restrict that <Directory> ?
I have a website on a linux-server working fine with PHP/Apache. The page loads a lot of css/js/image-stuff (total 84 requests, 220k), it takes about 4 secs to load via internet.
Now I'm testing the same page locally on a Win7-64-system (Apache 2.2, PHP 5.4). The system is not very slow (8 GB RAM, SSD, i7-CPU), but loading the same page as above takes about 50 secs.
The Q is: What might be the problem?
- I turned off firewall and anti-virus.
- I used mod_status: 150 threads, max. 11 seems to be used during the loading of the page.
- I tried php5apache2_2.dll with TS-PHP 5.4 and mod_fcgid.so with NTS-PHP 5.4, but the loading-time kept almost the same.
Looking at the "network-tab" in FF or Chrome, I found that a lot of subqueries get a timing like this:
Blocking: 11.96 s Sending: 0 Waiting: 1 ms Receiving: 6ms
So the loss of time seem to be in the "blocking"-section. I first thought of something like "limited number of TCP-Connections", but as said above, on the same system the page is remotly loaded fast enough almost without these "blocking"-parts.
Im having a problem where local authentication will not work when when the configured LDAP server is unavailble. When the ldap server is online I can authenticate fine against ldap and local file. However, when the ldap server is offline, I cannot authenticate with the user1 account. The browser just sits at a blank screen.
Ive searched a lot on this and found many examples, all very similar to my config below, but I still cannot failback authentication to local file when ldap is unavailable. Im running Apache/2.2.10. I have also tested this on 2.2.16 with the same results.
I can't get MAMP to work. I sadly uninstalled and AppZapped MAMP and reinstalled it. Now I can't get WordPress to install. I can make a DB on PHP MyAdmin but I get "not found" when I try the WordPress install. I can't get the PHP info? line to work either. How do you troubleshoot MAMP?
I'm having an issue with what I believe is Apache. Things will be running nicely, then all of a sudden things will just 'blow up'. Apache seems to fork a bunch of new processes, and it starts ripping into the memory. I've had it essentially eat through all the free memory and swap, and the system will then freeze up as there's no more memory. This is a CentOS server running CPanel, the configuration had been up and running for a long time without problems then this suddenly started happening.
I have entered document root: # DocumentRoot: The directory out of which you will serve your # documents. By default, all requests are taken from this directory, but # symbolic links and aliases may be used to point to other locations. # DocumentRoot "C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/htdocs" DocumentRoot "C:/operator1/oex-onmedias/primary"
So now apparently, when I type "myurl" in my browser, it would display C:/operator1/oex-onmedias/primary/index.html, but it does not work! Why?
Another question, how would I then be able to browse my actual website on my web host after I have uploaded it to my online server if the url is the same? it would only take me to the local server.
Last question, how would I set up multiple local websites on apache? Do I need to do a new apache install for each website? Or if not, how do I divide doc-root urls and domains of multiple sites in my config file?
