I have a LAMP server at home and in my website I added a php form using gmail smtp but Im not receiving any emails from the form. Do I need to add something to my server? Im using the free contact form from this website [URL]....
View 9 RepliesI have just purchased a dedicated server running Windows Server 2003 (IIS).
I have a website with a contact form - which I know works because it was working when I had it hosted somewhere else.
My question is how do I set-up my server so that the contact form will work. I know it's something to do with SMTP -- But i honestly have not idea what i am meant to do.
I wish there was a SLOW step-by-step guide on how to setup the SMTP on the server to send emails.!
I'm using a 1blu.de vServer. On my VPS is Plesk 11.5 with centOS 6 installed. I created my Webspace [URL] .... and removed the Mail Services and activated the MSMTP plugin because I'm using the webserver from the hoster 1blu.de.
I activated the Firewall with the "allow any connection" rule.
In Plesk Tools & Settings > External SMTP Server I filled in the server informations smtp.1blu.de password & username. I checked all three boxes -> SMTP needs auth, allow user scripts ...
I installed Wordpress 3.9.2 with a Theme that uses PHP Mail function. The contact form is not sending any messages out. So I tried other php mail scripts but it doesn't work.
[URL] ....
Code:
<html>
<head><title>PHP Mail() test</title></head>
<body>
This form will attempt to send a test email. Please enter where this test should be sent to
<br><p>
<form action = "sendmail.php" method = "post" name="sendmail">
Enter an email address: <input type = "text" name = "to"><br>
<input type="submit" value="Send" name="submit"><input type="reset" value="Reset" name="reset"><br><p>
[URL] ....
Where can I find the log file that could give me information?
I just want to use php mail for my wordpress contact form and for a project application.
We are getting infinite loops due to the user requesting the same page continuously , even if apache sends a 200. It is happening randomly once every two or three weeks for different users.This issue is not confined to one browser it is happening with firefox 21, firefox 5, ie 8, etc. It is not happening to the same user again.
It is a PHP based website with custom CMS.We are never able to replicate this issue.Is this something related to a plugin installed on a browser ?
PHP Version 5.3.8
Mysql
Apache 2.0
SUSE
I moved my sites to new linux server of mine (apache, mysql, php).
From that time i experienced some bigger websites hanging for like 2-3 seconds before they start loading. I mean when im browsing thru my website i click link, submit something and it waits saying in status field like "Waiting for mywebsite.com"
So i want to ask what apache, php etc values, what to check on server?
NOTE: my server is NOT overloaded (I am checking "top -c" stats) so don't suggest me to upgrade etc.
I have impression that it is waited until website elements are loaded and then webpage load very quickly after mentioned 2-3 seconds delay..
I have compiled apache with below configuration

But after compilation I have added expiry,deflate headers but I am not able to see either ETAG and LAst-modified header...
I signed up for a 1 month trial of Matt's hosted service for form mail as I was in a hurry to get a client's web site form going (the site was migrated from Windows Server, where it used an asp script).
The features look good, but I was hoping someone has experience using it and can share some insights.
I have a CDONTS script which has been sending mail from a client's website form to their address. However, the script has suddenly stopped working. It doesn't error, they just don't receive the mail. I've tried CCing myself in the script and the mail is not getting through. The script itself is tried and tested and syntaxially correct.
I think the problem is because they're using their own exchange server, not the web hosts' mail server. Therefore I would expect that mail sent from the web script wouldn't go through because there is no local mail server to process it.
The problem is that the script hasn't changed, the host say their system hasn't changed, and the client's IT team say their exchange settings haven't changed!
I could set up a CDOSYS script to use their Exchange server to deal with the email, but their IT support won't allow relaying, so I don't think this is possible.
Is connecting to their Exchange box the only option, or should the website host still be able to process the web-script-generated mail despite not being their mail provider? I'm getting a lot of grief here, but it can't be the script that has suddenly broken because nobody has touched it!
So, I have to connect to smtp.gmail.com to send the mail, which ends up in the inbox on the same domain. I don't have any mail server running on my server because it is not necessary.
Problem, however, is that when I click on "reply", it replies to the address it was sent TO...
I just saw that my website has been COPIED
I need to report this site to the thiefs hosting provider. However I cannot seem to find out where this website is hosted at!
The website that copied my site is www.hithosters.com . I need to find out where this website is hosted at..
My website is hosted locally on my network, so I'm unable to view the .com address for it (i can only access through the local IP address). This makes it really hard to test throughly.
Is there any way to view this website from how it would be outside the network? I know i can do it from another location but I need a solution that is right here. I do not have a off site computer i can remote desktop to either.
Not sure where this belonged so put it in web hosting as it could cover dedicated, colo or shared.
In a couple of months I am going to be launching a new e-commerce website for the company I work for, so it is absolutely vital that the website never goes offline, otherwise I will be in deep ****.
It will be hosted on a server that has been built to be very redundant; 2x Hotswappable Redundant PSU, 4x Hotswappable HDDs (RAID 6), Redundant NIC.
Sods law though to achieve this redundancy it will need to be on a colocated server, so if there is a major problem like the motherboard dying, then I will have to get down to the DC (3 hours away) and replace the entire server. Which wouldn't be practical as we would need a replacement server, all setup and ready to go, to do that.
Also, if there is a problem with the data centre itself, then we would be stuck until it is resolved. I have hosted sites with data centres in the past that experienced power or network problems which sent the sites down and it was totally out of our control to either prevent the downtime or restore the sites.
So to increase redundancy, and minimise downtime, I was thinking of load balancing between two servers. But then I assume they would both have to be hosted in the same data centre.
I was also thinking of having the site hosted on the server, but having some shared hosting (or a cheap dedi) ready to go just to fall back on if the server goes down. That way I can forward requests to the shared hosting as a temporary measure whilst the main server is restored. But the problem with that is I would probably need to get another SSL certificate. I would need to get the payment gateway provider (protx) to change the settings for the IP of the shared hosting, which knowing them will take 72 hours to process.
Budget really isn't an issue here if it can be justified, just looking for some ideas at this stage. There is no way this site can be down for a second longer than it needs to be.
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:
"<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName test.com
ServerAlias www.test.com
ServerAdmin info@test.com
DocumentRoot /media/BigBoy/www/test
ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/test_error.log
CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/test_access.log combined
</VirtualHost>"
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?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI've just switched my Apache and PHP config over to linux(ubuntu 14.10).
Apache 2.4.12 is using the mpm-event worker and PHP 5.6 is running in FastCGI/fpm mode.
I'm running MariaDB 10.0.17
I'd like to reduce the time to first byte even more, its currently 80 ms for static files and 110ms for PHP generated pages.
1. 80 ms seems like a lot, since the ping to the server is <15ms
How can I reduce this? Are there some tweaks for the Linux networking stack or Apache that I can apply?
I'm also using SSL, I remember it could be tweaked to improve its performance but I don't remember how..
I currently enabled the following in my main apache config:
Code:
ServerSignature Off
ServerTokens Prod
TraceEnable off
EnableMMAP on
EnableSendfile on
UseCanonicalName On
2. Is there a mod_spdy for Apache 2.4? what about http 2.0?
3. Can I tell PHP to make use of unix sockets to connect to the database server? (I heard unix sockets is faster)
4. I've installed memcached for PHP, can I also use this for Apache?

I am trying to redirect a request from a non-hosted domain, using a rewrite rule in our configuration file in conf.d. Our registrar has a pointer from this non-hosted domain to our domain.
Currently
*.domain1.com.vn -> http://www.domain1.com
domain1.com.vn -> http://domain1.com
I want to redirect a request like so in the web.conf file in conf.d
domain1.com.vn/terms => domain2.com/vn/terms
I don't have any SMTP server
Its a dedicated unmanaged server that has windows 2003 and apache running. I heard you need IIS to enable SMTP on a Windows machine but I don't want to run IIS because I feel Apache is better.
I've installed apache on my windows 2008 vps . It's run and when I browse localhost , it's works fine . But when I enter the vps ip address , it says Chrome could not connect to ... , I'm sure that httpd is running on port 80 (I checked it via netstat -ao and task manage ) ....

View 1 Replies View RelatedHow do I add multiple web pages to my server?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to fix a problem with open proxy on my website. It's running ubuntu & apache2. I also run pfsense for a firewall with snort. I have a SSL for the website, so I have regular port 80 redirect to https.
At first I did notice right away when I checked & saw this happen that proxy was turned on. So I got that turned off.
My firewall is still allowing these bad IPs to port 80. I would like to figure out what I could turn on the firewall or snort to stop those connections in addition to what needs fixing in apache. I've read the solution is to make the redirects go to a 403 error page.
I also tried adding a mod_security rule but ended up blocking all people from website, though I may have accidentally turned some other rules on too.
There are a few different problems it looks like.
First - It looks like they're trying to connect to my HTTPS then redirect to an ad through my domain name?
Second - It looks like they're still trying to use my website for open proxy but directly accessing ib.adnxs.com through my port 80. My logs indicate I'm redirecting to a 301 page.
