i have moved my hosting to a new provider and i was wondering what is the quickest way to upload my 500MB files to the new server? Is there anyway i can speed this up like have a dedicated uplink port to my server, or via VPN or something, cos at the moment i have an upload speed of around 10KB/s,
View 5 RepliesMy requirements are 500MB, 5GB bandwidth, rails and postgres, $5-6 per month. It looks like there are many providers out there that are offer that.
However the only uploading method shared hosters seem to offer - or at least the only method they advertise - is FTP. Coming from a university and sysadmin background, I thought that anything that sends passwords over the wire unencrypted had died long ago (except HTML forms and legacy systems).
Are there any shared hosting services that allow a more secure upload method (e.g. scp, rsync-over-ssh, even webdav-over-ssl)?

contacting them (support tickets) is as useless as not!..
their reply is always simply: we checked and nothing at our side! (asking for a clarification simply gets u nothing!)
problem is simply ONLY with ftp uploads!
my line upstream is 256Kbps (32 KB/sec) and down 1Mbps and i was always capable of pushing up to 2.2 GB/day ((i monitor my traffic all the time))
but just recently some weird things started appearing...
before uploads would never go under 27-26 KBs on my FTP client
now it's so normal finding it dropping to 15,10,4,2, 0!
ya a whole 0!
and that's not just for a second or two
it can stay like that for maybe aminute then go up back again!
And upon watching my traffic statistics closely, i found myself pushing at the most 1.6 GB only a day!
another funny thing is that files used to appear AND PARTIALLY in the root directory instead of the desired directory!
so WHAT IS UP!
On my dedic the uploads arent working... I am talking about normal http upload.
In my php.ini uploads are set as On and max file is 100mb.. my tmp is 777

Ok i get 403 forbidden when i try to access /uploads/ on my server. I wish to make it public. Can i make a index.html file dispay all of the files in the directory?

We are going to host our own website. I built up a windows 2003 server. Installed IIS6. I am working on file upload to our website. I can get files to upload to c:Temp but not to c:Inetpubwwwrootourwebsiteupload.
I even set up the upload directory for full sharing with write permissions. Still no help.
I went into windows explorer and right clicked on the upload dir and shared it and set the permissions for read and write. That should take care of NTFS permissions. But no matter what I do when I click on the upload directory and go to properties is shows 'read only'. Can't seem to get that turned off. Until I do I don't believe I can upload a file to the upload directory.
I went into iis6 mgr and and set the upload directory for full access - read and write. That should take care of iis security.
I went to default website (there is only one) and allowed anon login. Even told it use the Administrator account for login with all read and write permissions.

I just moved to a new, dedicated server this week. My vbulletin forum users typically upload mp3 files under 10MB. At the moment, I can't seem to get anything above 6MB to work.
In vBulletin land, they recommend changing these in php.ini:
upload_max_filesize - Largest size of a file to accept.
post_max_size - Must be larger than upload_max_filesize.
memory_limit - Should be larger than post_max_size.
max_execution_time
max_input_time
I've cranked all of those up and restarted Apache.
I'm still having the same problems. The little window with the form turns white after what appears maybe 5 minutes, but I haven't timed it.
They also mentioned changing the LimitRequestBody in Apache. I appear to be screwing that part up so I created a thread in the Apache forum specificallya about that.

So I wanted to ask if there were any other possibilities that you guys could think of that would inhibit the file size up uploads via a form.
I'm running httpd-2.2.8 and php-5.2.6. It needs to be said that this forum is config is mostly right out of the box. $_SESSION wouldn't work in php until I changed the directory for it yesterday. So there may be a very basic config setting that I missed.

I decided to check my error logs.
PHP Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 9852343 bytes)
I'm confused. I have an allowed memory of 30MB (give or take). So why does a 10MB file "exhaust" it?
We have a server that we just changed over to PHPSUEXEC. On this server, we have a large IPB (Invision Power Board) forum that we have not been able to get uploads in the forum back working again. Users are getting the message that they don't have permission, and to contact an administrator.
I have looked on IPB's forum for PHPSUEXEC related issues, but can't find a solution. Of couse, before phpsuexec the "upload" folder had 777 file permissions, but under phpsuexec this must be 755. It isn't working though.
Anyone had experience with this with IPB and know how to fix it?
I've been running pure-ftpd for around 4 months now without any problems, until around 24-48 hours ago file upload has been going a bit loopy.
When you upload a file the speed bounces considerably, and at times pauses on 0kbps until it then dies and fails the upload. 9/10 uploads I have tried have failed.

We have restarted pure-ftpd a number of times, but have had no luck.
Please could you try and upload a file (at least 10mb and please nothing dodgey) to this FTP account:

pass: password
And output the result.
Does anyone here have experience with pure-ftpd and would possibly consider giving my system a "once over"?
I want to get a VPS to hold my sites and the websites i build for people.
I'm not sure about what happens if a client uploads something they shouldnt - be it porn, warez or whatever.

I can't check every file that people might upload.
I'm currently a video sharing site and I'm aiming for large videos (around 500MB - 1GB), now I have to take into account an average user should only be able to do 30k-50k per sec.

First of all, I discoverd this forum during my quest to unravel the mysteries of how my site was hacked. I hope this is an appropriate forum to discuss the issues even though I am not a web hosting provider, but merely a customer of a web hosting company, hostrocket.com
I have an installation of WordPress 2.1 WordPress creates a couple world writable directories such as Uploads and Cache which are owned by nobody. Apparently (according to the tech support at hostrocket.com) someone was able to insert and exectue a php script in my world writable Uploads directory. Over 40MB of scripts, executables and files were uploaded. As best I can tell, my space was being used as some sort of link farm or perhaps acting as a server in my webspace. I do not have much knowledge about these things and consequently can't talk very inetlligently about them. But I am trying to grasp what little I am able to absorb about how this could have happened, what I can do to mitigate it from reocurring in the future.

As you can see, I was had in a BIG way.
So the first thing my webhost had me do was to change ownership of the directories owned by nobody to me. Then I was able to change permissions from 777 to 755. However in so doing, I am no longer able to use the Dashboard of WordPress to upload images anymore, unless I temporarily change permissions back to 777.
The other thing the tech support guy did is to create an .htaccess file with,
php_flag engine off
I guess this basically renders php scripts impotent from running.
So without flaming me, can you help me understand how someone in a shared server environment is able to put a php script into one of my directories?
What amazed me was this particular script, "99.php" actually when viewed in a browser window titled phpshell was called "c99adult v. 1.0 pre-release build #16". It basically enabled whoever had access to the URL, to view my webspace, and do all sorts of nasty things. Talk about a wake-up call!
Obviously this enabled the hacker to view my config.php file and ascertain my database password and everything else. Whether he did, or whether there is a logfile of that info that could enable him to hack the database at some time in the future is unknown to me but it's really freaking me out.

View 8 Replies View RelatedIs there a webhost fast enough for providing large files (2.5GB +, going up to 10GB + larger) on my website to users worldwide?
At the moment my website is hosted in the UK and it seems to deliver download speeds of around 650kbps if only one person is downloading at a time. I have tried other web hosts, and their download speeds are never advertised, but have turned out to be even less in practise (e.g. 150kbps)
As I'm hosting large files (e.g. 1GB - 2.5GB - 8.5GB or more) on my website, I need something with unlimited speed. i.e. so that the download speed is limited only by the end user's connection.
Is there anything like this out there? I realise the files are very large in size, but I'd rather keep the process electronic than mail out hundreds of DVDs all the time.
I have recently closed my Linux Developer account with fasthosts due to intermittant latency problems, and rubbish support query turn around, always over 48hours if replied to at all (most of my support queries were never answered unless I actually phoned in about them!)

I need to provide an 8gb file download (split into 1gb parts) that will be downloaded by 80+ people worldwide, simultaneously. I'm talking for example, they will be each downloading at 1.2megabytes per second each (this is the average speed of their home connections), simultaneously.
What are the specs or things I should be looking out for in a website hosting provider?
One service I'm looking at is advertised as 0.5Mbps in bandwidth and 100Mbps in transit, for £40 a month. The service I'm looking at is sensical.net's colo business service (http://www.sensical.net/). What does this mean and is it fast enough? What is the difference between these two figures - 0.5Mbps bandwidth and 100Mbps transit?
I'm in the process of switching my host provider and Im leaning towards Surpass Hosting.
I've already contacted them for a few question and their support seems expectational as they respond my tickets thoroughly in less then 20 minutes.
Just a few questions to those that do use surpass or have used them. How fast are their servers for PHP like Wordpress and Invision Power Board and are are your sites stable (always fast, or are they slow at times and then fast) with them.
The server I have running has LAMP and some other related services running. It's on a 100Mbit shared port. Whenever the server has been running for 30-90mins, the pings start to become very high (+2000ms). Problem exists with ftp, ssh, http etc, and restarting named, httpd, mysqld doesn't affect anything. The only thing that gets the pings back down and the speeds up again is to reboot the system, which takes about a minute. The MRTG graphs show that there isn't any significant traffic which cause the pings go down, in fact, the traffic goes close to 0 when the pings start sky rocketing. CPU load is < 0.1 and memory usage low as well.
