Can anybody suggest a large hosting company based in France?
I'm looking for hosting that can handle a high bandwith, high profile, busy website. We will require excellent customer support and a professional attitude.
Wanted to share a bit (read vent a bit if you're cynical ).
Just got the following e-mail from hostmonster.

Apparently, there are two files on my website that are being hit quite a bit, and causing the server to slow down. (I admit, its a busy site, and the files are very big).
The files aren't new there, and neither is the traffic, but the plug was pulled with no warning what so ever, and no offer of remediation on their part beyond refunding the remaining portion of my contract (I would hope so too!).
I can understand that they may not be able to continue to host my site due to the volume of traffic it generates, but they really could have handled this much better.
I will be deploying a full-flash site for a customer. He wont experience that much traffic at once - I would say at most, one to three customers on at one time and most of the day the site would not have more than one client on at a time.
Will a VPS with the specs below with barely any other sites on the VPS be able to present this high-quality flash site in a fast manner. I understand that there is a whole world of optimizing flash which is what my designer is trained in but does anyone have any expereince deploying full flash sites on a VPS. I'm curious to get people's expereinces.

Let's say I run a gallery site that is powered in php with no mysql required. Can a shared host handle traffic that receives 50k+ hits daily?
I know a shared host can handle 50k+ hits daily if the site is pure html but I'm not sure if that still applies the same for php
I will be starting a targeted (niched) video sharing site in the next couple weeks. I know it will require loads of space/bandwidth. My budget is under $450/month.
plan out an effective hosting strategy which will keep the costs low, while giving my providing a fast and reliable viewing experience for my visitors?
Somebody suggested going with Amazon S3 once traffic starts to pick up. But I don't understand how it works. (there is also something called amazon Ec2.. what the heck is the difference )
If I start with say a dual Xeon dedi box, with 2000GB bandwidth, can I serve all my videos/files through amazon while the conversion takes place on the dedicated server? In that case, how would I transfer the files from the dedi box to amazon? Is this even possible?
Could somebody please clarify the whole process? I am expecting about 1000 hits a day within 3 weeks, if they each watch a 200MB video a day... that's a lot of bandwidth!
I have non-english languages being showed as ? on different servers / vps.
I have tried "yum install french support" which installed but the problem persist.
On one of the VPS i switched to lighttp and the problem disappears.
I guess it has to do with Apache?
We are switching our servers, and I am trying to have the smallest amount of downtime possible. What is the best way to go from one host to another.
Should I have the old and new DNS info entered at the site registrar until the new site has been resolved?
is there anyone knows for a good hosting located in uk,which is allowed : adult site and casino betting online site ?
im looking for vps and dedicated server.
please help me i really need as soon as possible.thx

I think it's already high values, Is it safe to increase it?
I'm trying to find at least three web hosting companies to choose from to host a Joomla websites on a shared server. Would consider dedicated if the deal was right. I have a friend of mine who wants to create a church website, and is looking for the best deal. I use Netfirms which I have never had an issue with, but I didn't want to be bias, and would like give him other options to choose from.
Is there a good WebHosting Review site, I could check out, or maybe someone could recommend their top three. I reading threw the forums here and I noticed there are not that many complaints with Hostgator. Again, I just want to see if there was anything out there better.
Is there a way I can track the HTTP traffic to which domain is running with high traffic. Due to traffic load I/O wait is increasing. I want to suspend the domain that have the large traffic to avoid down time.

What minimum VPS specs should I be looking for to support a PHPBB3 forum that uses 100GB/mth bandwidth and has 50 concurrent users at peak times (measured by PHPBB, so not real-time concurrent)?
And are there any suggestions for inexpensive ($30 or less) options that would be worth trying? Have never used a VPS before.
If not, are there any shared hosting providers that specialize in hosting message boards like PHPBB?
Mysql server always busy and slow (in my VPS).
How I can know which website/account uses mysql very heavely?

I have a pages with high load - load avg is about 10-20.
and in the error_log of the apache message:

KeepAlive On
MaxKeepAliveRequests 100
KeepAliveTimeOut 1

What values should be of these parameters for the such high traffic pages?
it's getting to the point where I need to optimize MySQL to better handle a busy server.
These days it seems MySQL is using 30% - 60% CPU almost constantly. But, the good news is that I've got 4 gigs of ram on this box and their seems to be an access of 600mb free constantly throughout the day.
Is it possible to tweak MySQL to a little more RAM dependent and take some of the load off the CPU? It seems MySQL wont go over 300mb of ram at any given time.. I'm already working on optimizing the SQL Querys on the web page itself.

I am using apache 2.2 webserver and tomcat 6 as app server.
I have two unix boxes (let say A and B) where apache is installed for load balancing purpose.
The issue is now and then I see that on both the server reaches to 250 busy servers which makes my site very slow and after some time the site is unaccessible.
When I see this I restart apache on both unix boxes and also restart my app server.
But that does not work. As soon as I start apache the httpd process ramps up to 12 (ps -ef | grep httpd) within a minute and the busy servers still remains at 250.
The only I have to do is wait and watch till the busy servers goes down to 250 and then site is back to normal.
Some times it takes hours for busy servers to go down below 250.
I dont understand that why even restarting apache and tomcat doesn't work. why the busy servers are still at 250. even after I restart.
This is what I have in httpd.conf
<IfModule worker.c>
ServerLimit 80
StartServers 2
MaxClients 250
MinSpareThreads 25
MaxSpareThreads 75
ThreadsPerChild 25
MaxRequestsPerChild 0
</IfModule>
I tried to increase MaxClients to 300, which also didn't work and apache or httpd process shuts down by itself.
Are there any services where an ADMIN can monitor DB usage on system and make some recommendations or even find SQL that is poorly written ...
I have a DUAL harpertown, 10GB RAM, and RAID
I have a typical, gallery, busy VB forum, and video script...
THe site traffic has not increased much but my Memory keeps getting chewed up... i already did some tuning that VBULLLETIN suggested... but the memory still goes... i need a tool or someone to just monitor the server for a day and grab as much diagnostic info as possible..
I suspect that its a single query giving problems cuz i have some custom coded pages...
I don't want to split the DB and HTTP request on diff servers cuz the traffic that i get shouldn't warrant it... for now...
As somebody who has bought the 'Build Your Own ASP.NET 2.0 Web Site Using C# & VB' by CRISTIAN DARIE and ZAK RUVALCABA, I wonder what Hosting deals are considered the best and most user friendly (robust and support).
By this I mean, the most competitive for users like me who are just learning the technology and maybe want to set up some basic book examples online using SQL 2005.
i can host my web applications locally and my database connections are still intact but how can i host my web applications designed wit DW on a public server without the database connection being broken?

Well when it comes to anything that isn't windows hosting, I'm pretty knowledgeable about but when it comes to windows hosting I'm clueless about it as I pretty much never have any need for it. One of my business partner is looking to place there site on a more affordable hosting since there current rate is pretty high.
They have a simple site, which they are really not looking to get much traffic or use anymore then 2gigs of space. Probably needs at least one MS SQL Database and that's it. No more then 5gigs of bandwidth. All they want is something for show thats it, other then that they don't utilize the site for anything.
Can anyone recommend a good host for this with 24/7 live support?
I have agreed to update website A (with url A) on host A. Both are rubbish.
I would like to build the new site with host B for various reasons (essentially I want / need more than one 50Mb database).
If I build the new site B on host B under a temporary URL, I'll then need to transfer the domain from host A to host B. So my questions are:
How easy is it to transfer url A to host B and to point to site B? What will happen to the approx. 70 email addresses on host A? Will I have to manually recreate them at host B and any emails stored on the server will be lost?
