Web Hosting :: Box Don't Reboot

Dont Use CALPOP.com
I had my server shut down due to ddos attacks and proxy calls. I am a designer so I dunno what this means so I asked for proof and they said it was archived. I then tried getting my servers back online with them for over the last few hours and they replied we cant help you. I offered $3000usd to fix the problem and they said they cant do it. From where I come from, if a virus is added it can be removed under any circumstances. I then kept on phoning to get my server restored hense I am selling a lot of website property lately and he totally by passed that, I was put on hold for over 20 minutes and I am calling from Canada. I phoned the last time and told a white lie saying I have huge partners ready to boycott their company unless they restore my server....

What do you know it got restored and I got all my sites moved over to the new server, but this is the golden part.

Have you ever phoned your hosting company and been sworn at? Been called a ****ing idiot or to **** off and stop phoning, or I have had enough of your ****ing ****? Well this is what I heard from Ben at CalPOP and that is totally unacceptible hense I am the customer who was about to purchase numerous servers from them to increase my bandwith usage I would be using on my upcomming site called thewetwilly.com.

I dont respect a programming punk thinking he is better then me just because he works for a low end database center. I also dont respect being called an idiot while I am purchasing hosting from the company, aswell as being to to **** OFF. 100% totally unacceptable.

Alot of my friends have experienced poorness with this company and I wish I noticed it earlier instead of taking it the hard way/HARSH WAY.

But hey I am sure my word will get around and people will stop using calPOP due to their immaturity Cali Mr know it all talk and realize that they can find a better place to host their site.

I also have been told that calPOP used the excuse of DDOS and Proxy attacks as an excuse to get rid of you because you are using to much bandwith.

Oh they also told me that they would send me the HD for $100usd so I could move to another server, wtf is that???

Like come on!

I Dont Like SLHOST.COM
I've been using SLHOST.com for a couple of years, and they used to have great VPS service. My server was always up (I'm not a power user, I just host some small business websites for clients of my web design company - nothing that gets a lot of traffic or puts a strain on the server).

They recently moved locations, and I've had nothing but problems. They somehow screwed up the IP and DNS of the server. My (and my clients sites) couldn't be accessed for over a week! Support kept telling me that there was no problem, unti I proved to them that the DNS wasn't right. I didn't have any email during this period, and either did my clients.

Since then, AT LEAST one of the services on the server randomly stops working (the two big ones are DNS and STMP) a couple of times a day. I don't receive error messages (I know because my clients call me screaming why their email isn't working AGAIN).

As a web design company, I've lost reputability. As a professional affiliate marketer, I have literally lost over a thousand dollars because of the downtime. Every time I contact support, they restart the services and tell me there's no problem with the server (which is obiously not true).

Any suggestions from other webhostingtalk users on how to get better service and a credit from SLHOST.com? I'm not technical and I need a VPS that just simply works.

I recently started monitoring my server 2 days ago with hyperspin. I can post my support emails here as proof and verification that these problems are occuring multiple times a day.

2 Years With Lunarpages And I Have Left ... DONT USE!
While lunarpages is kind and offers great support. The support takes a while. They frequenlty get hacked or block your ip to where you can not access cpanel and switch your servers a lot in the past 3 months i got transfered to 4 different servers with the last one atlantis and prior one belogna. There support can take up to 72 hours to respond back where other hosts at max 24 hours. Their downtime has been around 97% not advertised 99.9%.

This is what really upset me.

I contacted them through email to cancel my account and they said they need more info, ok. Gave them info and they went ahead to renewing the account after I had gave them proper info. I tried to get this resolved for over a week now.

I thought since they renewed my account i should access my account and download my entire site, well I could not access cpanel again, no surprise there.

I just now got off a 20 min phone call and they tried to get my account canceled as I gave proper info to cancel the account so I would not be renewed and they tried to sell me their service for $75 to close my account.

I eventually had to threaten them to press lawsuits "not that I would even if it wasnt handled" and they said we will close your account and not charge you the $75 to do so.

My god! How hard is it to close an account with such service?

When I joined them my first year was absolutely great! It just has started to decline in the past couple months or so.

I rate them at 50% great because their supportive in all areas except for the slow response and canceling an account.

Dont use them ive had much better success with GoDaddy.... wow GoDaddy! I know tell me about it. GoDaddy is not my favorite host.

You need to be careful when finding a host becasue ive learned that they pay to be on the top. I am now using Host Gator with no compaints looking at moving to HostMonster for the price and services though should I?

CPanel / Bandwidth - Calculations Dont Add Up
1. I have loads of these showing up in the WHM Apache service status

52-1 - 0/0/8 . 0.00 3970 0 0.0 0.00 20.02 127.0.0.1 server.mybox.com OPTIONS * HTTP/1.0

54-1 - 0/0/5 . 0.00 3968 0 0.0 0.00 38.04 127.0.0.1 server.mybox.com OPTIONS * HTTP/1.0

I was told that was normal as its apache's MPM prefork way of waking up the worker processes. That I have accepted however it has been problematic ever since I installed mod_security that things have been going ape.

2. The Bandwidth in CPanel and that in Apache does not add up. There is only 1 account on the server. The bandwidth usage in CPanel shows 51GB for the month of July so far, however in WHM under Apache status it shows 223GB of Bandwidth in the last 48 hours.

Now given the the host tells me that CPanel does not count certain bandwidth(?) I am not certain what to think as the difference in bandwidth is a whopping 160GB in the past 2 days.

WHM

Server uptime: 1 day 17 hours 54 minutes 31 seconds
Total accesses: 87589 - Total Traffic: 222.5 GB
CPU Usage: u110.4 s13.25 cu0 cs0 - .082% CPU load
.581 requests/sec - 1.5 MB/second - 2.6 MB/request
15 requests currently being processed, 3 idle workers

CPanel

Monthly Bandwidth Transfer 51915.52
Total50.7 Gig

Server Load 1.7GHZ Machine with 1GB Ram

Server Load 0.25 (1 cpu)

Why such a HUGE difference in bandwidth?

Php 5.2.1 Dont Work As Httpd Module
I cant make php 5.2.1 work as httpd 2.2.4 and 2.2.3 module. When loaded with php it makes httpd dont start at all without any errors in log even on debug level! However when I place php 5.2.0 as module it immediately starts working ok.

I've tested this with a standart ./configure without any parameters for both php and httpd, and httpd is always not working when it tries to load php 5.2.1 as module.

Did someone run php 5.2.1 with httpd >2.2.3 succesfully?

CPanel 11, New Mail Filters Dont Work
I had made a post earlier about trying to get an exim ACL or filter to work with cpanel 10 to deny all messages with a 10 or above spam rating while forwarding 5-10 scored messages to a spambox, but I decided to tryout upgrading to CPanel 11 which adds a built-in solution.

I've had no luck using WHM's Exim Configuration editor with

"Reject mail at SMTP time if the spam score from spamassassin is greater than 10.0."

Checked under ACL's and Filters.

VPS Server My First I Dont Think Mod Rewrite Works
I finally bought a VPS after not being able to pay for a dedicated server so I bought one from VPSbyte.com as they came highly recomended $39.95 server with Cpanel not the cheapest I gathered but I wanted reliable servers

now I moved my forum over to the server all was ok after I got the massive database sent over but when I tried to view a thread or category I could not it came back with No Valid input or something like that

I went into admin and disabled zoints SEO mod and the forum works fine BTW its a VB forum.

would it be due to mod rewrite that the forum does not work with zoints? and is it possible to get it to work?

DMEHosting.com - > Worst VPS Hosting - They Dont Know How To Manage Servers
Ticket ID : #919385

---------------------------------------

We have serveral vps servers from dmehosting.com. I would say never choose dmehosting.com for your sites. A vps server is down for more than 14 hours and still down. They do not reply to my tickets. They do not inform about the issues.

I had have many issues with them like 1 - 2 hours downtime but that's not really matter.

Now the server is down for more than 14 hours and still not up. I have even asked them to transfer this vps server to another working node but they are not responding.

DON'T CHOOSE DME HOSTING .COM FOR VPS SERVERS........IF YOU NEED HIGH UPTIME AND SECURE DATA.

Problem Running FreeNX. Session Startup Failed. CentOS 5, Dont Think GNOME Works

I installed freenx and the client on the server, then downloaded the client on my windows pc.

The Server is running CentOs 5.0, cpanel 11, and I also had GNOME installed.

The problem is, I don't think GNOME is setup, or running.

When Connecting I get this:

I'm not sure why this is happening, but i think its because gnome isn't configured or something. I just had the server installed, and asked for gnome to be installed.

I've searched for an answer for a week, but no one's came up with anything. I can't start my new server to run my business on without this.

IWeb Technical Support Reps And System Admins Dont Understand Basic TCP-IP Networking
I want to pass on a warning before anyone goes with iWEB. I just ordered a $269 a month dedicated server so I could run vmware on it for my own virtual machines that I need.

With this server I got 7 IPs.

The primary IP they assigned me is say for example: 70.xx.15.171 with a GW of 70.xx.15.161. The secondary ips they issue me are 70.xx.18.249-254. So these are on a completly different subnets.

After talking on the phone to several differnt people including tech support who tells me this will work jsut fine useing thoes secondary ips on my VMs and to not put a gateway address. I talk to my account manager he says to open a ticket that he will forward to their system admins.

This is the ticket I opened.

I just got a new server set up CL-T113-140CL. It was
assigned the primary ip of 70.xx.15.171 with a GW of 70.xx.15.161. My
secondary ips are 70.xx.18.249-254. The server we got from you is a
VMWare host. We need to use the secondary IPs for the Guest VMs. How
ever the primary and secondary IPS are on different subnets and so
the VMs useing the IPs 70.xx.18.249-254 can not talk to the gateway.
I need to have a gateway server IP to use for my VMs.

Please either give me a valid GW address for the 70.38.19.x subnet or
assign new secondary IPs on teh 70.xx.15.x subnet with a SM that can
talk to the 70.xx.15.161 GW assigned.

this is the reply I get back from their system adminstrator

The gateway to be used for your secondary IP addresses is the same as
the one for your primary. You should not have anything to change,
gateway-wise. Just leave the current one as default gateway and
everything should work just fine.

If there is anything please do not hesitate to contact us.

Are they brain dead at iWEB? DO they understand basic TCP-IP networking at all?

Here is my last reply. I tried to make it real simple for them to understand.

This does not address the issues. Do you even know what a virtual
machine is? It is a virtual computer running on the host computer.
The host computer has a valid ip address of 70.xx.15.171, sm:
255.255.255.224 gw: 70.xx.15.161. The virtual machines (or guest
operating systems) if I assign it the IP address of 70.xx.18.249 SM:
255.255.255.248 with no gateway it is physically impossible for it to
reach the gateway of the host pc 70.xx.15.161. You have to understand
the Virtual Machine operates as a completely separate computer. It
requires its own gateway. with no gateway specified it has no way to
get out of its local subnet to get to the 70.xx.15.x subnet. What
happens if you put two physical computers on one hub. The computer on
port 1 of the hub has the IP info 70.xx.15.171 SM: 255.255.255.224 GW
70.xx.15.161. The second computer is on port 2. It has the ip info
of: 70.xx.18.249 SM: 255.255.255.248 GW: NONE.
How is the pc on port 2 going to communicate with the pc on port
1? This is the exact situation we are in. There has to be a
gateway to route the IP traffic from pc2 to pc1 to get onto the
internet.

After Graceful Reboot
After a graceful reboot I am having problems with a few things.

First cpsrvd and lfd failed to start, but I fixed it doing this:

rm -f /usr/local/cpanel/cpanel
rm -f /scripts/installgd
rm -f /scripts/cleanmd5
rm -f /scripts/upcp

But next to all the drives it says "No DMA! (Click to Enable)", I click that and it says things:

Quote:

EIDE Hard Drive Optimizations Enabled
/dev/hdc:
setting 32-bit IO_support flag to 1
IO_support = 1 (32-bit)

But after going back to Service Status it still says that.

So I tried to enable it through a command by typing:

sudo hparm -d1 /dev/hdc5

And get this error:

Quote:

/dev/hdc5:
setting using_dma to 1 (on)
HDIO_SET_DMA failed: Invalid argument
using_dma = 0 (off)

I Have To Flush Iptables On Every Reboot
I'm running CentOS 4.4 32 bit.

At the moment every time I reboot my server I have to execute:
# iptables --flush
# iptables --zero

just to be able to access the server. (Though it does allow SSH to access before executing those).

And I figured out that I must do something to /etc/sysconfig/iptables to permanently be able to access the server without those commands after reboot. Right?

Below is the file's contents:

# Firewall configuration written by system-config-securitylevel
# Manual customization of this file is not recommended.
*filter

Leaseweb Server Reboot
I ordered a leaseweb express server 4 box with windows server 2003 and have been running it, installed some software etc which worked out fine.

Anyways, I wanted to disable tcp/ip filtering which I did and afterwards it prompted me that I would have to reboot the server for the changes to take place, I clicked ok and it rebooted. Now I just can't connect with remote desktop, I tried everything.

I'm guessing it either shut down or didn't reboot properly? I tried sending an email to leaseweb support 2 days ago but still no shadow of any reply..

It says that I can reboot the server using the SSC but when I log in there, I can't really find any reboot option.

Ssh: Reboot Never Works
I'm finding that my server doesn't like to reboot gracefully. Either selecting "graceful server reboot" in WHM or actually typing "reboot" in SSH, which then tells me the server is shutting down. My server is then incommunicato indefinitely until I actually do a hard reset remotely.

Is this common? Is there some way to find out why this is happening?

Old Hardware ACPI/Reboot
I've got an old passivley cooled Pentium II box which I am turning into a silent File/Backup server for our LAN at home. Naturally for stability and performance on old hardware, I am running Linux.

The problem I have is that when you reboot the machine, it ends all processes, unmounts etc as usual, but after that the screen just blacks out and it doesn't go anywhere. I have to physically reboot the machine.

During startup theres a message saying BIOS is earlier than 1999, you should set ACPI=FORCE in Grub. I added this and also tried the noacpi and noacip options to no avail.

Windows ran on this fine before so I don't see why Linux would have an issue.

How To Troubleshoot Unexplained Reboot?
I have a Centos 5.2 box with Cpanel/WHM. A couple days ago it rebooted.

I checked /var/log/messages and I can see where it rebooted, but I can't find anything that indicates why.

I'm trying to figure out if this is a hardware issue or software issue/crash.

I do have Nagios istalled, and it seems it saved some data right before the server rebooted. Not sure if this is a simple coincidence.

Dec 4 11:53:35 miles nagios: Auto-save of retention data completed successfully.
Dec 4 11:56:14 miles syslogd 1.4.1: restart.
Dec 4 11:56:14 miles kernel: klogd 1.4.1, log source = /proc/kmsg started.
Dec 4 11:56:14 miles kernel: Linux version 2.6.18-92.1.17.el5PAE (mockbuild@builder16.centos.org) (gcc version 4.1.2 20071124 (Red Hat 4.1.2-42)) #1 SMP Tue Nov 4 14:17:52 EST 2008
Dec 4 11:56:14 miles kernel: BIOS-provided physical RAM map:
Dec 4 11:56:14 miles kernel: BIOS-e820: 0000000000000000 - 000000000009f000 (usable)

how to trouble shoot this?

Server Reboot, No SSH
I'm worried a server is dead, and I haven't made any backups of the database

Server went down last night, submitted a reboot request and now the server is not responding to SSH.

It does respond to ping, so I'm assuming Linux might have booted up OK

Has anyone experience with this type of issue?

Is It Normal The Load To Be 45.33 After Reboot
I have an dedicated server 2 x Xeon CPU 3.20GHz (2GB RAM), now 30 minutes ago my admin tryed to make a benchmark test on it and after a period the server was not responding ( SSH or http.. ftp ) we asked DN to reboot the server. After the reboot in Service Status page (WHM) there ware many services down and the load was ~ 45.00 (4 cpus) .. after aprox. 5 - 10 minutes the load has droped:

Server Load 2.61 (4 cpus)

is it normal to have such a higher load 45.00 (4 cpus) after an reboot ? The memory used was 32%.

VPS Down After Simple Reboot
So I was trying to run a backup process in Plesk 8.1 and the whole panel froze up on me (it's happened numerous times before).

Anyway, since the panel was all frozen up I just went into SSH and did a simple "reboot" (also, as done before many times). Only problem is, this time after I did the reboot the server never actually came back online... it seems to be locked up or something, I have no idea what.

I called my host and they are looking into it but they have no idea what's going on either and it's taking them forever to figure it out all the meanwhile my sites are down.... this isn't good.

Does anyone have any suggestions or advice as to why this could be occuring?

Surfspeedy.com - I Hope You Dont Use Surfspeedy
surfspeedy.com is unbelievable. They shut down my VPS without notice and are not answering to support tickets. Can you believe that? I did not host any illegal stuff or anything of course, only normal sites. And they don`t even answer me.

There are a few reasons that you should keep away from surfspeedy.com.

1. Obviously surfspeedy.com is crap.

2. surfspeedy speed is crap, I suspect they oversell.

3. surfspeedy support is crap, a lot of talk, talk, talk, no action.

4. surfspeedy techs are crap that cannot even set up awstats correct.

I should have known this, they get bad reviews everywhere, but they was very sweet talking when I signed up.

Now I am looking for another managed VPS of course. What is the biggest companies that rent out managed VPS ? I will just use the big and old companies from now. I rather pay a bit more. Please advice me. I can even consider a dedicated if it is on a solid company that have very good reputation.

Building My Own Box
I've been running a niche hosting business (one man show) for about 6 months now and so far I've learnt the basics of the hosting business. In fact I'm quite successful too, with good profits right from the first month. I know a bit of server admin and manage my own servers.

However, now I plan to start general shared hosting business and have decided to own my hardware and colocate it at a DC. (I'm not located in the US; the DC owner is my friend and would receive the hardware and set it up for me.)

The box would cater to general shared webhosting needs with cPanel (I don't like it but the market does )

Here's what I'm planning to go for...please put in your valuable inputs.

$300 for 1x SUPERMICRO MBD-X7DCL-I ATX Mainboard
$380 for 2x Kingston 4GB(2x2GB) KVR667D2D4F5K2/4G RAM
$475 for 2x Intel Xeon E5405 Harpertown Quad Core 2Ghz.
$240 for 2x WD Caviar RE2 WD5001ABYS 500GB SATA2 HDD
$250 for 1x Supermicro CSE-811T-420B 1U Chassis

100Mbps port, CentOS 5.latest 64bit, cPanel.

So, to sum up... 8x2Ghz CPU, 8GB RAM, 500GB SATA RAID system to start with.

I'm open to all suggestions and would appreciate valuable advice etc. from experienced people. I'd like to ensure full hardware/software compatibility and maximum stability.
