Does anyone know who provides fully managed VPS that supports Apache2? I am currently hosting with LiquidWeb and I am happy with their service. However, they only support Apache 1.3 on their managed VPS.

What does this really mean? Will they install/configures/manage 3rd party softwares such as XCache, LiteSpeed, etc?
i'm beginning my search for a fully managed vps host. I plan on sending an email to each of these hosts and asking questions but i want to inquire here to see if i've missed any prime candidates. I'm choosing VPS mainly because of the security of having your own server + flexibility to do custom stuff down the line if need be. And my site doesn't really need the resources of a dedicated machine.
My current host goes down all the time and has a really long support response. We've also been having lots of connection issues with the clients we have in china. While this may be unavoidable due to the great firewall of china, i think there's got to be a better setup. We'll see.
My website:
This is for a small business (10 or so people) and the website is only used internally for project management, email, and the like. The bandwidth + load are minimal but there is quite a bit of file storage. The main application being used is dot project (mysql + php).
Fully managed:
I just want the OS / basic installed applications (mysql, php, ftp, apache, cpanel, possibly dot project, etc) to be kept up-to-date for security reasons. I don't want to have to monitor each of these to see when a new bugfix comes out. If a service fails (like email) i'd like it to be looked into. I can handle the user management / coding / etc. I don't expect security audits of my website or anything. Yes, i will be asking each host if they will do these items as i understand "fully managed" means a lot of different things to different people.
Requirements:
5+GB space, 5GB Bandwidth (overkill), php, mysql, cpanel would be nice, dot project
Price:
hopefully under $60/month
Here's the hosts that i'm going to look into, please let me know if i've left someone out. Yes, i'll be searching the board for reviews of these hosts as well.
liquidweb.com
rackspace.com
knownhost.com
servint.net
myriadnetwork.com
zone.net

I may soon be in the market for a VPS, and would like a fully managed FreeBSD VPS. Preferably with either DirectAdmin or Plesk.

I need 15-20GB Space, at least 512 RAM and 500GB Bandwidth
I own a pretty high traffic soccer blog. Nothing out of the ordinary!
It generates an average of 8k unique visitors/day - but can reach 30+ unique/day.
According to the guy who is currently hosting it - it does around 30-50gb bandwidth per day.
I'm not sure if I even need a Dedicated server for this. However, the old host said that the HUGE peaks of traffic in the middle of the day are causing him problems.
I'm not very technical - just the writer of the blog - do a couple of other web developments aswell, but I've never really needed a dedicated server before!
Thus, I need this fully managed - and want it to basically work as a reseller hosting account (if thats possible).
I need this quickly as the website is going to be deleted by the end of THIS month! He just told me today . He was taking the revenue from the site in exchange for the hosting. I'd now like to just cough up and pay for it!
If anyone can give me any advise, do I need a dedicated server? Would a VPS do? What prices am I looking at? Are there any companies which suit my needs?
We want a reliable and powerful fully managed Linux server (Cent OS if possible) for under $300 a month.

Just am happy to hear that knownhost.com vps provided now has become fully managed .
I was confident about this company but now I am more happy and I definitely recommend them.
Our company may be going the Linux route, so I'm in the market for a Linux VDS that's fully managed. I've never utilized a fully-managed service, so maybe you guys can help me out here.
I used to have a shared account with LiquidWeb (up until a week or two ago actually), and I didn't have any complaints there. However, I've never used their VDS service.
I've had a VDS at MyriadNetwork for almost a year now, and they're one of the best--if not best--providers I've ever done business with; very prompt ticket responses (less than 10 minutes on normal-priority tickets), very friendly and helpful even if it's your responsibility.
I'm aware that LiquidWeb includes full management in their price, whereas MyriadNetwork offers it for an additional $75/mo. A fully-managed comparable plan at LiquidWeb is about 50% cheaper than Myriad's. I know from experience that Myriad's higher prices are justified with the service they provide, but I'd like to know what everyone here thinks.
Should I choose Myriad and hope their full management service is as good as their VDS service, or should I try LiquidWeb out and hope they deliver? Has anyone used either provider's fully-managed services?
Please move this to the Managed forum if it's more appropriate; I picked this one because my situation deals with two very specific VDS providers.
Some of you may remember when I was asking for help on a good dedicated hosting company. I looked around for a month and finally found a great company to host my websites, WANSecurity. I received at least 10 dedicated server offers, but chose to go with WANSecurity because of the server and service they offered me. With so many options out there, I thought it would be helpful for me to share my experience with some of you. I have been on shared hosting for about 10 years and have never messed with dedicated servers. I had no idea there was so much work with dedicated servers until I got my hands on one. I was used to getting everything set up for me at Lunarpages. Although I love Lunarpages, their dedicated servers are nowhere near those offered by WANSecurity. Robert, the WANSecurity founder, has been particularly helpful. I received a recommendation from a WHT forum member telling me to get in direct contact with Robert for the "best managed hosting" offer out there, and guess what... I think I got it. Robert and WANSecurity moved all my files, installed Apache, Red 5, set up my mail servers, configured all of my large databases, and did so much more.
Although I am new to dedicated hosting, their managed plans are world class and their servers are very reliable. No issues in the last 6 weeks for me. If you are new to dedicated hosting and don't feel comfortable running everything on your own, trust these guys. They do a great job and they are flexible. Their managed hosting plans are new but they have been around for 11 years. They know their stuff and most of all, they care about you. That's the great thing when you are a big fish in a small pond. They truly care for you and therefore offer you the best service. If you are experienced with servers, they are still a great choice. They will give you a great deal on a server even if you don't need all the managed hosting services.
Check them out at: [url]
You can also get in touch with their founder if you are interested. PM me for his email. Feel free to ask me any questions. I'm open to give you my personal feedback.

I am considering moving to dedicated server, what are risks with self managed server compared to managed?
Managed servers are very expensive for my needs.
When a colo vendor can consider themselves as a managed colocation provider? What make them different than *normal* colo service?
If you need a managed colo, why not go with managed server? With managed server, your vendor will take care about the server health, including software and hardware too
(I am mentioning to fully managed server vendors like Rackspace, don't tell me cheap managed servers)
I'm not ready to fully purchase webhosting at the moment. But, I want to be able to upload all my website scripting and information to a test website for free.

View 24 Replies View RelatedI want to start my blog farm(many blogs linking to eachother) so I need a VPS.
I was thinking about a VPS with at least 748Ram and 20GB disk space and at least 200GB data traffic.
The VPS must be full managed with top nitch support via live chat or email.
Speed must be perfect,worldwide.
At least 4 IP's or more,or available for less then $2,50 per month.
The VPS provider must have his own hardware and tech staff 24/7/365.
My budget will be around $40 per month.
Usually our website traffic is about 50 MB/day in our dedicated server. From these past 2 days it's consuming 5 GB/day and Apache2 opens so many processes/connections that our router can't handle and turns our WAN/LAN extremely SLOW!
If the reboot the server, it calms down but soon the apache2 starts again to open the connection (+1000).
Can this be a worm? I'm using Ubuntu Server 8.04.
I am still running apache 1.3 something on my debian vps but debian would really like to upgrade to apache 2 (Ie PHP5 updates).
So I wanted to ask what the advantages and disavantages of running apache2 is?
Can apache2 use a 1.3 httpd.conf?
Ive had this problem numerous times (website failed to connect error) before and the web management team tell me that apache2 needs to be restarted, seeing as they are not replying to my emails im gona try and do it myself.
i open up putty, login as root user, then what?
I have a problem. When MSN Search robot looks through my VPS, the machine is going "asleep", e.g. Apache2 (Port 80) doesn't answer at all. Here is the last falling:
Code:
23:14:15 up 4 days, 9:06, 5 users, load average: 37.18, 31.25, 27.46
I hardly ever can enter 'pkill apache2' to kill Apache2 processes. Here is my Apache2 configuration (timeouts, prefork, e.g.):
Code:
Timeout 30
KeepAlive On
MaxKeepAliveRequests 20
KeepAliveTimeout 5
<IfModule mpm_prefork_module>
StartServers 2
MinSpareServers 2
MaxSpareServers 5
MaxClients 10
MaxRequestsPerChild 400
</IfModule>
Maybe I configured Apache2 wrongly, but I only want to prevent this bad thing.
I just wondered if anyone can help me out with an Apache problem. I currently run Debian 3.1 (on 10 GB space and 256 MB of RAM) with Apache 2.0.59 installed through apt-get.
Apache runs with 10 child processes running simultaneously to handle multiple requests at once. I have set up Apache to use virtual hosts for every single account since they are hosted on their own domains/subdomains.
I put in a crontab to restart Apache every 15 minutes. The reason being is because after a while, Apache will start lagging to display web pages. When it's restarted, it works just fine and fast. After roughly 10 minutes now, it will take roughly a minute for the request to finally send the data back to the browser. It's not the web page that causes it, it's Apache or some factor effecting it's performance.
Does anyone know what the cause may be or how to fix it? Personally, I think it might be a memory issue.
I had php4 running as a module of apache2 on a debian sarge os.
i did the following to upgrade to PHP5
apt-get install php5 libapache2-mod-php5 php5-gd php5-mysql
But when i tried to start apache i got an error message saying that libphp5.so is corrupted or something.. (garbled - perhaps this is not an Apache module DSO?)
Now i just want to retore php4 working as it was !
i did apt-get remove php5 libapache2-mod-php5 php5-gd php5-mysql
and apt-get install php4 libapache2-mod-php4 php4-gd php4-mysql
but i can't find the php4.conf and php4.load on the /modules-enabled or /modules-available
tried to write those files manualy as php4.so exists with other libs.
apache does not load php

I'm running Apache 2.0.54 on my server and just recently Apache has been giving me problems that I haven't been able to fix permanently. In my error log, Apache marks down "[error] (88)Socket operation on non-socket: apr_accept: (client socket)" roughly 3 to 4 times a second and then turns off. In SSH, I send a restart command and it tells me it's still running but then it says when I restart it again that it wasn't running.
My main concern is fixing Apache from showing this error and from crashing so much. I did some research and through inconclusive evidence, it seems like a crontab error (ironically Apache doesn't use any cron jobs I can see).

<Directory /webmin/>

SetEnv SERVER_ROOT /webmin
SetEnv MINISERV_CONFIG /etc/webmin/miniserv.conf

I did
Quote:
htpasswd -c /etc/webmin/htusers brian
and then set a password as "test" for brian. However it won't login.
got the VirtualHost entries for Appache, so each Domain points to a folder.
The (Windows-)DNS runs on the server, means i have to create a new DNS Reverse-Lookup and Folder for each Domain seperatly, but this workflow appears to be pretty stupid..
Now my question:
Anyone can tell me how to setup somwhat a "Wildcard / Catchall DNS", and also "Catchall VirtualHost", so each Domain is automatically pointed to the right folder? Any scripts needed for that?
