View 7 RepliesI've a box running Linux Plesk 12.0.18 + Postfix and hosting mydomain.com. Email service is hosted by an external provider.
The problem is that I can't write to postmaster@mydomain.com because Postfix tries to deliver it locally.
What I've already done:
Configured MX record on DNS to point the external provider's server.
Disabled mail service for the TLD from plesk panel or with:
/usr/local/psa/bin/mail --off mydomain.com
The problem still remains.
I think I'm facing on Plesk 12 the same problem described here and elsewhere on this forum for Plesk 9: [URL]
We need to upload to a virtual server (managed with Plesk 11.5) a Wordpress site developed locally. We made this operations without problems many times on other hostings managed with custom panels, non-Plesk.
On the virtual server with Plesk, however, once the files are uploaded via FTP, the database via phpMyAdmin and updated the Wordpress configuration file, when you go to visit the website, it does not display anything and the browser opens the download window for a text file called "download" that contains the code of the file index.php of WordPress.
I'm moving from my old XP PC to a new PC with Vista (a mistake, but that's a different story).
I'm trying to set up some sites in IIS so that I can develop locally without having to publish to a remote web server.
I've installed IIS7 from the control panel, and am now looking to set up my first site. I've put the site name in, and the path to the site on the computer, but I'm getting an error in the 'bindings' section. I've left all of this empty because I don't know what it means (it didn't ask for any of this in IIS on XP) but when I try to add the site it gives me the following error:
"The binding '*:80:' is assigned to another site. If you assign the same binding to this site, you will only be able to start one of the sites. Are you sure that you want to add this duplicate binding?"
Does anyone know what to do here? I'll need to add about 100 domains to IIS so I want them all to be accessible locally. How do I do this?
if it was possible to install Plesk locally on my laptop as I need to do some testing and integration with it. I am running Windows Vista Home Edition.
View 5 Replies View RelatedMy website is hosted locally on my network, so I'm unable to view the .com address for it (i can only access through the local IP address). This makes it really hard to test throughly.
Is there any way to view this website from how it would be outside the network? I know i can do it from another location but I need a solution that is right here. I do not have a off site computer i can remote desktop to either.
I currently have an Apache server running PHP and Mysql on my MacBook Pro.
I also have a copy of Parallels running, which hosts a Windows OS. In OSX, I have multiple VirtualHosts set up, and they all work great when accessed from OSX. All the sites are within my "Sites" directory. Now, when I browse to my Macs ip address in windows, I only get shown my Sites folder, and get shown the directory.
How would I be able to access these local sites as I do in OSX? I have tried configuring my hosts file in Windows, but it doesnt help.
Plesk delivering email locally to a not existing mailbox instead of sending it to an external party. First I was using a local mailbox, but my client wanted to control the email using their own server. So I've changed the MX records to this new server. Deleted the inbox in Plesk and turned off Mail support for this domain.
New situation: DNS server for domain.com is hosted on a different location and points to my Plesk server for the website and the MX records point to the clients server for the mail.
Email send from email addresses like gmail are send correctly to the clients server. Email addresses from my PLesk server and forms from the website are send locally.
What is the difference between Dedicated Virtual vs Regular Dedicated Server?
Also what are the pros and cons of going with Virtual?
Here's my problem:
1) I have a website running on a Linux server somewhere
2) I have a big hard drive at home with a bunch of videos.
3) I want to be able to manipulate the videos at home from the server. I want to be able to do this like run ffmpeg commands on it to get the video length, or create a thumbnail from any frame of the video.
Here are the caveats:
- I do NOT want the complete video to be uploaded to the server every time i have to manipulate a video. In the case of thumbnailing, the processing should be done on my home computer, but the output should be copied over to the server.
- Speed is not an issue. This doesnt have to be the fastest solution in the world.
- My home computer is running linux now, but I can change it to whatever I want.
- My server is a shared host; I do not have full root access. However, my host is kind enough to give me reasonable leverage.
I'm thinking the way that this could happen would be by mounting my home computers disk on the server so that I can access the files "locally". I don't know how to do this though, or even if this is the right way to do this.
to move from shared windows hosting to Dedicated windows hosting. This will be our first dedicated server and experience with dealing it too.
Someone suggested me Rackspace. But they were charging premium rates 440 USD for entry level windows server.
I am currently using a shared hosting but due to increasing traffic and server load my existing host is not able to provide reliable services and I am planning to upgrade my hosting service.
While I was searching for Dedicated Servers, I learnt about Virtual Dedicated Servers but I am not very sure about their reliability? Are Virtual Dedicated Servers useful? My website current serves over 2500-3000 visitors a day resulting in 30,000 pageviews and I am expecting the traffic to grow by atleast 2 folds in the next few months as I start some PPC campaigns and Email Marketing for my website. Can a Virtual Dedicated Server cater such needs assuming my website to be more of less dynamic website written in php?
I have Plesk 11.5 (service provider mode) on a Windows 2008 server IIS7.Most of my sites are developed in .asp and therefore i use a custom 500-100.asp error page that check s the IP of the visitor then displays either a friendly error, or if its my IP a full error of what has happened (it also emails me the error). This allows me to debug pages easily whilst developing and to keep an eye on anyone trying SQL Injection hacks on my sites (as the error and email also have session variables and IP address).I dont have root access to the server as it is a Webfusion dedicated server.I have following the Plesk documentation -
1) Switch on custom errors for the subscription
2) Look in virtual directories and navigate to error documents
3) Find the error in question (500:100) and change it to point at either a file or URL
FILE - I had the data centre add in the 500-100.asp error page in to the virtual template so that my page is available in the list of virtual files - this didn't work but that maybe because its not a static page??
URL - when i add the path it says its incorrect, if i add a fully qualified address, it accepts it but it doesn't work.give me a specific example of the URL that can be entered relative to the root as the format in the documentation isn't accepted. The last step is to restart IIS which is also an issue as i cant seem to do this from the Plesk panel..It is as if it isn't catching the 500:100 error, and only catching the general 500 error??

It's already up and running with static IP address, however hosting offers a "Static IP Address", which doesn't really make sense, cause I already have one?
Other thing is domain name. Current domain name is registered with a different company and we don't really want to transfer it from that company. Can I get away with importing a domain name and changing MX records in the domain control panel?
Last thing is an email server. What do I need to set up an Email Server? I have a domain name with few POP3 email addresses. I thought about using hMail server for windows. What else do I need to do, pay for?
i want to know what is the difference between dedicated server and shared server. I was relaly confused in these services. Couls any one please let me know in detail about these servers?. I will be choosing one of these service.

I have been given a fairly high spec dedicated server and I would like suggestions what I could do with it.
Briefly the spec is: Dual Opteron, Two 360GB HDD's, 4GB Ram, on Unmetered Bandwidth located in Germany.
I don't want to host anything like warez, torrent server or any web -hosting service. ( I already have a hosting server )
I got control of some colocation resource in Taipei, Hong Kong and several cities in China (Beijing, Shanghai and probably Guangzhou & Shenzhen), and is now considering starting a business by deploying blade servers into my racks with Internet bandwidth as well as private bandwidth interconnected between the above IDC.
My target will be corporation, web developer / SI who want their / their clients' web site or IP application online with target users in those regions.
I prefer to deploy VM or VPS instead of dedicated servers as space/electricity in China is very expensive and higher density should be the way to go.
So I'd like to know more what the difference is between VM and VPS in terms of customer perception and actual features.
In areas of VM and VPS, which vendor do you recommend and why?
I have one Dedicated server , with Centos 5 and Cpanel. I want with *a magic way* to have and some vps 4 -5 in the same server,
So my question is how i can install a vps in this server and also i am wondering if it any GNU vps software for my server also.
