I am currently using phpdotnuke for a site, and have a forum linked to it supplied by activemodules.com. I would like to move to a non-cms site and something like vbulletin, so want to convert the forum db from MSSQL to MySQL - and hopefully keep all the posts and login data!
As a complete novice to that process, is there any pointers out there in terms of reading material, non-command line software etc I can use? Has anyone done this conversion, and what are the dangers?
is there any hosting company/service available in this world that it allows to host websites developed in
php, java, dotnet, mssql, mysql
all in one account ?
if so please let me know that hosting provider details. (or) if anyone already using any hosting service and hosted your websites with the above said langauges.
I have read about people wanting to change their database from MSSQL to MySQL. I however am wanting to change from MySQL to Microsoft SQL in our Plesk panel.
I mostly work with cPanel/WHM but, I have to work with Plesk for just one client of mine. He's on Plesk becoz I came to know Plesk worked better on 256MB VPS than cPanel in the early days. Hence, on my recommendation, he is on Plesk on a 512 MB Memory VPS till now for all these years.
I wonder how tedious it might be to convert from Plesk to cPanel? The client basically uses Joomala + vBulletin and runs forums as of now.
Also, which CP will perform better on 512 MB VPS - Plesk or cPanel.
I am wondering if there is an easy way to convert apache to nginx on my Plesk 12 server. Ideally, I would like to save all my hosts without having to re set them all up. I have been searching online, but haven't found a simple way to do so.
I have server that has a SINGLE customer on it - this is not economical to run under PPA - how do I remove it from the PPA management and not disrupt the current site/email on it?
The plan is to run it on webmin - there is no way it can justify PPA for 1 site.
I have a website that was running fine for a month or two until my host recently changed some settings on the server, and now it shows a bunch of errors. I contacted the host and they said >
"To avoid the errors, please do not use disabled function. If you need such functionality, you can have your own php.ini on your root http folder containing only necessary option"
Since I'm not a programer, I have no idea what they're talking about. So, I asked them how to do that, they're reply of course was>
"Please consult with the script writer on how to convert ini_set function in your code to php.ini seting. As the script is not encrypted, you can do it with commenting all ini_set calls and write a substitute on php.ini (Create php.ini file in webroot folder)."
I tried to contact the developer, but it appears he has gone MIA! So, now I am left with no clue how to fix the website, so I turn to you guys!
The website is [url]. You can see the errors in the header, but I'll post them here as well>>
"Warning: ini_set() has been disabled for security reasons in /home/buymydom/public_html/includes/global.php on line 3

My question is, How do I convert ini_set function in my code to php.ini?
I'm facing problem with latest Apache 2.4.9. Previously we used Apache 2.4.7 ​version which supports DER SSL certificates. But Latest Apache(2.4.9) is not working with DER SSL certificates. I have to convert DER certificate to PEM format to start the Apache server. Am i missing anything ? Is DER certificate not supported in Apache 2.4.9 ?
I've got a customer that has a website at hisdomain.com . He created a subdomain called dev.hisdomain.com for the new version of his website. Now he wants to take it live. Had he created dev.hisdomain.com as a subscription instead of a subdomain, it would have been easy to "rename" the old site to old.hisdomain.com and then rename the new site to the current name.
Am I going to have to move all the files around at the command line or is there an easier way to switch around the sites? The server in use is CentOS 6.6
I am planning on starting a new project and am curious as to if there would be an issue with hosting the websites (IIS) and the MSSQL Databases on the same server?
Basically housing all of the websites and SQL DBs on the same server?
Is this going to cause major problems? I originally thought that I should house the DBs separate but am starting to think that we can house the web and dbs on the same machine but I wanted to get some advice from other that know more about Windows then I.
what level of hardware/hosting plan I need for one of my clients.
Current stats: ~65 ecommerce orders per week ~5000 unique visitors per day
Requirements: Win2k3 ASP.NET 3.5 MSSQL 2005
My first recommendation to them was RackSpace due their good reputation, but they were not able to pay for the plan suggested to them by RackSpace.
My other question is what type of plan do you guys recommend based on the above stats/requirements (managed/VPS/dedicated/etc.)? VPS is what came to mind for me since we'll probably end up using this setup for more than one website/domain and since they are so price sensitive.
I'm fairly comfortable setting up and administering Win2k3 and MSSQL. I'm sure that plays into the choices a little.
I know there is probably some information I have left out that would help you guys make a recommendation. Please just let me know what else would help.
I have around 5 servers each running an instance of MSSQL. Four of them hold small databases (largest is 4GB) and all fairly active (I was monitoring the largest for around a minute with SQL Profiler and it used about 2000 rows).
The largest server is used as a central database for logs for the above four servers.
This server runs across 4 * 15k drives in RAID10, but the RAM is a huge bottleneck (64bit OS, 32bit MSSQL). I also watched this server for around a minute in SQL Profiler and saw around 2000 rows being used again.
Now I'm looking to centralise everything into a single instance of MSSQL. I can't afford for MSSQL to be slow, but it will be housing 7 databases (3 'main' databases, 3 log databases, 1 misc. database).
I'm just wondering if anyone could hazard a guess if this would be sufficient? I've tried to explain things the best I can. I guess to summarise would be that there are a lot of read and writes that would happen if I conbined all the databases into a single instance.
I see that SQL Server Express said to be free but does that mean its free for commercial use? personal use? development use? I don't see any information.
Also I read on this board that some hosts offer this. Are they just using the free free version or something else?
I installed mssql support to my cpanel server as you mentioned on cpanel forums. When i request some data it gets charecters in error and writes them to mysql server.
I've installed this on previous server and didnt have this kind of problem.
I set same configs with old server (mysql.php,etc.) but it's not working.
we are still having same problem on mssql, there are difference with 2 dedicated but we did not solved it yet. for example, you can see on first screenshot, there is some character errors while it getting datas on mssql server and we think that, it will cause problem and not showing totals but we did not have any problem on old server without characters problems

I am looking for a company to host a relatively simple data driven ASP.Net 3.5 website and a MS SQL 2005 database. There will be minimal traffic on the website as it is for a small business and also minimal media will need to be hosted. Features like Ajax should of course also be enabled.
Data security is of importance although as the developer of the site, I would like the flexibility of being able to configure the database (run scripts) through management studio remotely.
Email features will also eventually be required.
The company should ideally be based in the UK and decent support id (and when) the need arises.
Any recommendations? What sort of price range should I be looking at?
Most companies seem to support MySQL- but this is not flexible.
I'm building the infrastructure for a live event site.
I have specced 8 app servers but I'm still unsure with regards to MSSQL.
The site functionality makes a single write to the DB with no reads. A simple option would be to have a MSSQL DB instance on each of the APP servers and simply collate the information after the event.
I've also been looking at the mirroring function of 2005 as it would mean we could get away with two MSSQL servers instead of 8.
Has anyone used MSSQL 2005 Mirroring? Is it easy to setup and maintain? Any caveats?
How can my user use MSSQL management studio to restore the DB? Whenever my user try to browse for the db file, he can't browse to his own web folder due to permission error.
At the moment our MSSQL defaults to backing up db's to C:/Windows/Temp. On some occasions it backups up to the sql backup folder. Any ideas where these settings exist in MSSQL Management Studio?
