When creating cPanel shared accounts under a VPS account, do you create them under the root WHM or do you create a "ficticious" reseller account and place the shared accounts under the reseller WHM? Are there any advantages or disadvantages using either method?
View 4 RepliesI installed WHMCS on my server and for some reason it is not creating the account in WHM after someone signs up. I tried installing Cp creator as well and for some reason that is not working either. So I now know the issue is is somewhere in the communication between the gateway and WHM. I am guessing WHM is where the problem is located, but then again I do not know. If you have any ideas please tell me because I am in need of whatever I can get. I am losing patience with this because I have been trying to setup this server for over a week.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a web site, where users sign up and edit there account settings using a web based form application.
These users will be uploading large files to my server, and as of right now they are uploading the files using a file upload form. The problem is it takes a really long time to upload them.
So my first question is will using ftp be significantly faster than using the web form http upload?
Assuming its faster to use ftp:
The big files that the user uploads get stored in a directory in the website directory right now, so that they would be accessible via www.mysite.com/user/files/ . There is an ftp account used to control that entire domain and all the files in it.
So if i were to create another ftp user, how would i go about allowing them to access a specific diretory in another users home directory.
i own a smal lVPS and am offering some people reseller hosting. My VPS runs plesk and unfortunately i have only had experience with cpanel. How can i make the users be able to create other accs like a reseller?
View 5 Replies View RelatedThe first thing i'm thinking of is cpanel but there's many others If you're runing a server with 5000gb traffic/bandwidth per month When you're creating hosting accounts, could you allow 5000gb in
each new account you're creating?
Like if you had unmetered, you'd put unmetered in every new account Considering no account would ever reach any way near their monthly allowance.
When I use the /usr/local/psa/admin/bin/mailmng script to update the password for a mail account, the account is removed:
Code:
[root@www postfix]# /usr/local/psa/admin/bin/mail_auth_view
Authentication database contents:
+--------------------------------------+-----+--------------------------------------+
| address |flags| password |
+--------------------------------------+-----+--------------------------------------+
| ...<SNIP>... | | |
| eric@example.com | | ********* |
| ...<SNIP>... | | |

I have noticed that for each new subscription I create Plesk automatically creates an FTP account. Further; I cannot delete this. (It seems the Remove button would allow me to delete additional FTP accounts but not the one added when the subscription was created).
I would like:
1) To delete these system created FTP accounts
2) To prevent it doing this in future. I would like to create subscriptions without FTP accounts.
I'd prefer to do it this way and leave the FTP server running. However; I am wondering about disabling FTP access altogether if I have to. I do use SFTP. I'm afraid my Linux knowledge is so limited I don't know if SFTP uses the FTP server; so if I turned off the ftp server whether that would prevent sftp access?
The motivation for doing this is that while I have 'customers' and subscribers in fact I am the only user and will transfer files to the server by SFTP and then move them around the server logged on via SSH. Since I'm not using FTP it seems sensible not to have all these accounts floating about.
As I read, when Plesk and WHMCS are in the same server, you may have 502 bad gateway errors when creating an account through WHMCS..Page not Found/Timeout/502 Bad Gateway error creating accounts with Plesk 10+..By default Plesk 10 and above performs a forced restart of apache when an account is created or suspended which causes WHMCS to lose connection to the server, and if your WHMCS is on the same server, you will also lose connection to WHMCS at the same time.
In order to resolve this please refer to the following knowledgebase article for instructions on configuring Plesk to perform a graceful restart instead: URL..
But when I activate nginx in Plesk the 502 bad Gateway problem comes back.Is there an option to activate Nginx graceful restart in Plesk?
I know that after you have been running a site for a while you will have some "clutter" after a while. For example, email boxes that are not used might be taking up a lot of space because they are getting spammed.

I have a VPS hosting and have two IPs. Can I create multiple accounts using a shared IP in WHM?
I created but the page always showed failed
"Account Creation Status: failed (Your system has run out of avaiable ip addresses, or you do not have permission to use any more ip addresses. (Unable to find an ip address.) )"
I am curious if anyone knows what 1and1.com's uplink speed is for their shared accounts? A shared developer account get's 3TB of bandwidth. But I am wondering what type of bandwidth that is. How fast is it?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI am doing a FRESH install of Fedora Core 6 onto a brand new server. I have 2 questions about partitions on there..
1. Should all the partitions (/home, /backup, /var etc..) be of file system type "ext3?" I could not find any documentation on this anywhere.
2. A question about about LVM (Logical Volume Management). Are you supposed to create a different LVM for each partition? Or just for /tmp?
