Basic Windows Migration Info
Mar 16, 2007
We primarily work with unix servers and are new to the windows hosting. We have have a client with a large site moving from a shared account to a vps account on another host.
The shared account is on a server run by a local company and any type of login could probably be gotten for that host. And the other is a VPS so essentially functioning like dedicated.
Is there a way to transfer server to server instead of server to local to server? The equivalent of SSHing files from server to server on Unix?

I want to be able to do some testing on a Windows Server. Instead of finding a domain and finding web space I figured I could just use one of my own PCs as a web server.
However, I've never done that before and have no idea what I would need.
Does anyone have a tutorial of what needs to be installed (OS, software, etc) in order to setup a Windows web server? Doesn't have to have any features other than supporting ASP. And I'd need to be able to access it from the internet via my ISP and a port.

I'm getting a dedicated Windows server for my business web site (a classifieds service similar to AutoTrader, with e-commerce capabilities). I need to get someone for routine administration, but I don't know the first thing about it.
What are the general tasks that need to be done on a regular basis with a Windows host server? How many hours per week can I expect a professional admin to spend on these tasks? Starting out, the traffic will be on the low end, but I'm expecting 100,000+ users within a few months.

I have just migrated my server from a Linux CentOS VPS to a dedicated Windows Web Server 2008, everything seems to have gone quite well except xcache.
I have installed xCache v1.2.2 with the following configuration:
Quote:
[xcache-common]
extension = php_xcache.dll
[xcache.admin]
xcache.admin.auth = On
xcache.admin.user = "admin"
xcache.admin.pass = "b95e560e4a31ce20cd522f224932c080"
[xcache]
xcache.shm_scheme = "mmap"
xcache.size = 48M
xcache.count = 2
xcache.slots = 8K
xcache.ttl = 7200
xcache.gc_interval = 300
xcache.var_size = 128M
xcache.var_count = 1
xcache.var_slots = 8K
xcache.var_ttl = 7200
xcache.var_maxttl = 14400
xcache.var_gc_interval = 300
xcache.test = Off
xcache.readonly_protection = Off
xcache.mmap_path = "anonymous"
xcache.coredump_directory = "c:/xCache/tmp"
xcache.cacher = On
xcache.stat = On
xcache.optimizer = On
[xcache.coverager]
xcache.coverager = Off
xcache.coveragedump_directory = ""
If I open phpinfo I can see that xcache is loaded and can see the settings, I have also installed the xcache admin panel and I am able to access that without problem.
However if I enable xcache on in the PHP scripts (vbulletin) file I get multiples of the following errors:
Quote:
Warning: xcache_isset() [function.xcache-isset]: xcache.var_size is either 0 or too small to enable var data caching in [path]includesclass_datastore.php on line 557
Quote:
Warning: xcache_unset() [function.xcache-unset]: xcache.var_size is either 0 or too small to enable var data caching in [path]includesclass_datastore.php on line 596
Quote:
Warning: xcache_set() [function.xcache-set]: xcache.var_size is either 0 or too small to enable var data caching in [path]includesclass_datastore.php on line 597
Now unless I am being thick, var_size is currently set to 128M, it was originally 4M but as the error suggested "too small" I upped it a little with no affect.
The only thing I can think might be related to this is that I am using PHP 5.2.6 and I am using xCache 1.2.2 for PHP 5.2.5 as there is no 5.2.6 version

I had some question about the migration tool : My task is to migrate a domain from a server with plesk 9 version to another server with plesk 12 version.
1. Does the migration includes the ftp accounts contained in the domain ?
2. During the migration can users from the plesk 9 server still connect to the ftp server and continue working on it ?

I just finished to migrate my Plesk 10.5 to 12 and everything is great now.
I just have a little problem with SMTP authorization.
This option, if i'm not doing something wrong, is located on Mail Settings and especially in the section "Relay options". I ticked "authorization is required" and "SMTP".
But when I try to check it on my email client, I can send emails with or without the the SMTP authorization option on the email client.

While attempting to migrate from previous version of Plesk Panel Windows to current (Windows 2012 R2 with Plesk Panel 12) version, following error appears which stops PMM to proceed further.
Error: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'C:ParallelsPleskPMM

This error is generated for all subscriptions which we are trying to migrate and above file can indeed be confirmed missing.

I started a migration from HELM3 to Plesk 11.5 for a client.After 12 hours it failed.the error log says ERROR:()Unable to download dump files to local store.
ERROR:()You were not connected because a duplicate name exists on the network. If joining a domain, go to System in Control Panel to change the computer name and try again. If joining a workgroup, choose another workgroup name no other server with this hostname or workgroup exists on our network?

I recently realized that domainkeys headers are not added to mail messages that are generated on our server. We are using MailEnable Enterprise 8.60 (upgraded on the Stardart edition, that is installed with Plesk).
I thought the problem could be related with this upgrade and created a new VM and tried that out. Installed Windows Server 2012 R2 Std, enabled DNS and IIS with ASP.NET versions, applied all updates, installed Plesk 12 and Upgraded to MailEnabled Enterprise. On the new server mails are going with the correct domainkeys headers.
Now I think that the problem was generated because of the Migration. On the old server Plesk 11.5 was installed and we didn't have any domainkeys issues. When we created our new server, with the same steps I wrote below, and migrated our backup to the new server, domainkeys headers weren't there anymore.
I couldn't find any documentation about this issue. Is there any commands to reset the settings related to domainkeys or may be it's a curruption in the psd database?

When I try to migrate from plesk 11.5 to Plesk 12.0 appears this error "Backup has wrong signature. Restoration prohibited" and migration is not performed . The Plesk 12.0 is a new installation in a new Windows 2012 R2 server.

After a server migration, some critical Plesk settings were not copied across, even though the option to backup/restore panel configuration was used. e.g.
skeleton (vhosts.skel folder)
php.ini (Program Files (x86)ParallelsPleskAdditionalPleskPHP5* folder)
Default site (vhostsdefault folder)
health config (Program Files (x86)ParallelsPleskadminconfcustom-health-config.xml)
Additional Administrator accounts
Is there a way to get these things to backup and restore that I am doing wrong?
Are there other important settings/data that I have missed from that list? I am still paying to keep the old server in case I discover something else!
Using Plesk Backup & Restore for disaster recovery will lose these settings unless they take extra steps. e.g. I now have a simple batch file that copies these files to a private folder on one of the domains before the daily backup kicks in.

I'm migrating from Plesk 9.5 to 11 and I'm getting the following on my Transfer Pre-Check from within the Migration Manager."The destination DNS server does not support networks in the Transfer Restrictions Template, but some subscriptions have networks in DNS transfer restrictions. The records with network IP addresses in the DNS transfer restrictions will not be restored."
I've gone to Server, DNS Settings, Transfer Restriction Template and added the new server's IP to the list of allowed networks to no avail. I also couldn't find any documentation on what the cause might be.

We are migrating an existing multi-site Windows2003/IIS6 web hosting system with
CFusion8
MS Access backend databases
SQL2000 backend databases
http and https site access
to
Windows2012 R2/IIS8.5 with
CFusion10
MS Access backend databases (not updated)
SQL2014 databases
http and https site access
On the new system we are looking to add Plesk12 to give users easier management of their own websites.I am about to install the trail version of Plesk12 WebHOST.I have the following questions:
1. Can we use the plesk migration tool to move the websites from the old IIS6 to the new IIS8.5 server?
2. If not, am I right to think we would migrate from IIS6 to IIS8.5 manually and then import these websites into Plesk12 from the new server?
3. Can I migrate the existing websites piecemeal over onto the new server and into the Plesk control panel at the same time as creating brand new websites under the control panel?
4. Once Plesk is installed on the new IIS server is there a KB article on how to add all these existing websites to Plesk - I could not find one.
5. Is the local windows administrator account used for the install used to run any services?

I am planning to host my personal website which will be a bunch of static pages for the time being with the possibility of moving to PHP/Pearl CMS later.
For this, I think that a basic hosting plan of about .5-1GB space and 5-10GB bandwidth would be well enough.
Can you please suggest me a host which would cost around 2-3$/month and has a moderately good service? I came across companies like Umbrahosting and HostPC which are cheap. Do you have anything to say about them?
Moreover, some hosts give combo offers of webspace+domain registration. Is it wise to register the domain through the host or to register it separately through godaddy etc?

I've created loads of sites before, mostly using high end VPS or dedicated servers. I'm somewhat new to shared hosts, having used just 2 before. The 2 being:
1. Hostmonster - brilliant. Yes, it's oversold badly but it's service is second to none and I never had an issue on a medium-traffic site. However, I do know they phone you to verify your account, and I currently do not have possesion of a phone (travelling).
2. iWhic. Had some serious downtime at one point, but else reliable. Customer service OK. Basic plan does not support unlimited domains.
I am looking to make a personal blog, possibly a travel blog or car review site.
I may still use iWhic, but I'd like to be open to suggestions:
[requirements]Unlimited domains
5GB Diskspace
Unlimited Email Accounts
20GB+ Bandwidth
Reseller would be nice (host my friends)
cPanel (this is a must).
[budget]
While technically my budget is unlimited, I would like to stick it to the $5-10/month mark. Pay per month is preferable.
I like the idea of just a big oversold host, cause they are generally reliable and I won't be using that much resources and the bonuses (such as Adwords credit) are generally useful.

I've noticed that theres really a shortage of freebsd web hosts which surprised me at first because I've always considered fbsd an os built from the ground up to be a server. That also happens to be the os I have the most experience with. I can only guess its because in comparison to the linux community the freebsd is relatively small and not as well known.
So basically what I'd like to do is rent a dedicated server, run freebsd 64 on it, and hopefully get a small successful business going. I've been looking around a lot for reliable freebsd servers (I really don't have the upfront money to do colocation) and I've found one that offers me 500gb disk space and 10mbps unmetered bandwidth (or 3300 gb/month I guess).
My first question is could someone please clarify unmetered bandwidth. In the past pretty much every host I've looked at offers a set amount of bandwidth (like in gb), and I'm not completely clear on how this whole 10mbps fits in with that.
My second question is more general. Really I'm looking for honest opinions on the ease of breaking into this business. I'm sure theres a lot of people who start up and shut down constantly which contributes to the reputation of a lot of smaller hosts being unreliable, but is this a feasible goal? I can really put in any amount of time necessary but I only have about $500 to start out.

I'm new here and I just want to start my first web site. What I need is just something basic: email, web stat, stability, etc. I do not need lots of space and bandwidth (of course, it is best if it is upgradable). Any suggestion on hosting company with lower budget plans? I hope I can start from a cheap monthly rate, and can upgrade in the future when needed.
And I have some questions when I look into different hosting plans:
1. I found many hosting plans offer free domain, so I can save may be $10 for the domain name registration. Would there be any disadvantage for using the free domain provided, like it may not be portable in the future?
2. After this first web site, I may build a few more web sites in the future. I found many plans offer "unlimited domains" to be hosted. Does it mean I can just build new web sites using the same hosting account without paying extra? Would there be any limitation or disadvantage for this, compared to using a new hosting account to build the new website?

I have a pretty powerful Dell machine that I would like to turn into a server that would be available on the Internet. The reason I want to do this is because I need to run 2 programs (1 is a trading platform and the other was custom made for me) and I think a hosting company will say no if I ask them to run programs on their server.
In general, I know very little about servers and I need your help! How can I turn this machine (running my 2 programs) into a server available on the Internet? Someone told me I need to install IIS but I am sure it's more than that

As far as i know, the Record has always to point to an A-record which includes the Ip. Anyone here, who can explain why thats the case? Is there any RFC Dokument where this is explained?

I tried installing Apache and, later on, Wampserver. I also tried looking up this topic in Build Your Own Database Driven Web Site, Using PHP and MySQL.
My goal is to see, on my home computer, how my new Web pages would look as I work on them, and that includes things like includes, which can't be seen on a regular home computer (mine is Vista). Later on, I also expect to play around a lot with PHP.
OK, how am I supposed to do this? Is there a folder on my home computer where these files should be? Do I need to install them on another computer on my home LAN?
I just don't get these first basic steps; I don't know what to look for.
