Recently started using HAProxy for load balancing / failover, and have the usage down. But, no matter how much I search I can't find one simple thing...
Anyone know of a way to customize the status page?
Seems to be a directive actually in the binary...I can't find a conf, include, anything to pass any customization to it. I'm talking about the /haproxy?stats URI.
I look after a number of sites and monitor their stats. We use both webalizer and AWSTATS so we can have a comparison. Up until recently the stats for both of them where relatively the same, webalizer usually showing higher numbers as it doesn't filter bots but the progression of increase and decrease in stats was proportional. However, over the last few months a curious trend is appearing, the stats in AWSTATS are decreasing every month whereas the stats in Webalizer are increasing, the gap between them now is huge.
Currently I am hosted with Aquarius Storage, who are a fantastic company and I will be posting a review of them soon, but however that is not my point. Due to the recent tragedy of the HyperVM creator committing suicide, I will have to pay more because AQ is switching to Virtuozzo. Because I simply run a somewhat large, growing blog, paying 36$ per month is kind of outrageous.
To make things short, I need a good host, that was superb uptime, and is optimized for a WordPress blog that gets around ~5k uniques, ~30k pagehits, ~100k spider hits per month. (all figures are growing, of course), and for the site to be optimized to be speedy fast.
I am completely new to VPS. Currently I have a website on shared hosting, but I'm starting getting problems with it: more precisely CPU exceeded and "slow MySql queries" problems - though MySql code is top notch. Traffic is about 100 G a month, and users' number growing day by day.
It seems I do need a VPS now. But since I am all new, I need to ask if a VPS account provides:
- MySql databases - Cron jobs - etc.
Basically, this question translates into this: does a VPS account offer everything else a shared hosting offers, and in addition guaranteed ram?
PS: I do need a CPU guarantee (don't know the exact name) meaning that if my processes get close to RAM limit, all processes are automatically diminished so that the site is still running... very slowly but running... (rather than killing the site)PS: I tried to find the VPS offers link as I am trying to get to see the current VPS offers of several companies, but can't find it. Do you mind giving the link?
Thank you, and sorry for the mess... I know I might be a pain in the a**, but I've got to ask in order to learn... You guys had a starting point as well, right?
I'd like to add geodns to BIND, so I need to modify named.conf. All that I will put into is a include of an acl file (for different IP ranges), and add a new view for existed domain.
My VPS use cPanel. What is the best way to handle this, as named.conf can be modify by cPanel? I can modify the template in /scripts/rebuilddnsconfig, but I don't know how to add a new view.
There's only one site in my VPS. But I use a few subdomains in DNS (legacy issues). Only one db file in /var/named/
I am a application/systems developer looking for a VPS hosting provider that would allow me upload a customized xen image that I could use as a template for additional VPSs.
Does anyone know of a hosting provider that could do this type of thing?
how to setup pre-installed wordpress themes and plugins so that customers can have them as soon as they auto-install wordpress? I am sure the files are stored somewhere, but can't find it.
Also, any way to disable the auto-install wordpress link from domain.com/wordpress to just domain.com? Some in-experienced customers will have a hard time since they wouldn't understand that selecting custom is the way to go.
Below are some results from various stats programs from one day's activity on our site. webaliser and awstats give sort of similar results (although still 6400 pageloads difference), but these results differ so much from what google (analytics) says.
can anyone think of an explanation for this? does google have a different definition of a visit compared to webaliser and awstats? for these latter two is visits = hits?
does anybody know if there is a possibility to circumvent godaddy´s pathetic stats they offer on shared accounts?
-I am not quite sure what tells you the unique visitors (always a good one to know )
-It doesn´t tell you what robots crawl your site. It just says: robots 28 (great!)
-The graphs are all reversed. Meaning that the now date is always on the very left hand corner of the x-axis towards the 0 intersection. This is pretty pathetic as it goes against anything human brains are accustomed to.
I´ve got to stop venting now. I would appreciate if somebody knows where I can find the unique visitors (hosts served maybe?) and how I can install a better stats program on Linux shared hosting at go daddy.
When I go through my AWStats under "Links from an external page (other web sites except search engines)" I see several domains that have linked to me. When I visit these sites they are generally porn and drug sites that do not contain a link. Some of the sites redirect you to other sites. When you look up these domain names they are all from Russia.
These sites account for mulitple hits as high as +14.5%. These sites do not represent the content on my sites.
My questions are.
How do I stop this? I have found banning IP addresses does nothing.

Stats are not updating for this account. I ran this twice, keeps getting stuck at this line forever..
I've a few similar video sites and haven't noticed much difference over the years with their stats. They usually average anywhere from 50-100mb downloaded per day.
Suddenly this month, one site is practically going off the scale...600-700mb...up to 1gb downloaded per day...I'm like...wtf?! The other site is reporting normal BW.
I'm using awstats with hotlink protection enabled.
I thought i may as well post this here having already contacted my host. Just thought you knowledgable people may be able to give me some insight to this?
Well i am creating a sub-domain, and i obviously have site stats with AWStats for my primary domain name. If i was to create a sub-domain say example.sitename.com would i still receive the site stats for the sub as well as the primary one? Anyone had any experience on this?
as midphase are good but generally take ages to get back to me and their response are rather general,
I have a pretty active phpBB forum. I was looking at my stats today and I notice some strange referrals. I checked it out and it and it is a bunch of spam sites. But with a link to one of my threads in the bottom (different per spam site).
- The spam sites have nothing related to my content - The link to the threads in my forum has no relation to each other. - Out of all the sites to put, why mine? My forum is not a very very popular forum.
I can post the link if it will better understand the above situation.
I just like to know why and what purpose does it serve? Also is it bad for me? As it is a spam site is linking to my forum. I dunno if search engines will think my site is a spam site as well.
My current "manager" it his all "great time" couldnt fix irt whole day so I am looking for experienced manager to check and fix my problem, let me know how much you charge per 1h and what's your experience,
I don't like having to come here for help, but I'm stumped on this one and my server tech isn't really helping - perhaps I'm overlooking the obvious. I have an addon domain on which stats are not updating. As of the 11th of this month, the site had over 1.2k uniques and right around that time we did a server move (on the 10th so it may have started then).
It is only for this one addon domain that things aren't working. It registers 0 new anything since then with the exception of yesterday when my tech says he repeatedly refreshed the page and it registered a grand total of 2 uniques. Back to 0 again so far today. I know the site is getting traffic.
Secondly, Webalizer shows very minor traffic in its categories with numbers that remain in the low single digits.
I recently installed Urchin on a cPanel server (RHES 4), all sites got its profile added into Urchin database, but when I run urchin for 1 site manually, it freezes on 0% and processing... Logs files have 0644 as explained in google Urchin manual ...
Also, using IP:9999, and viewing the profiles and its stats show 0 stats generated, but going to www.site.com/cpanel, then to Webstats - Urchin, shows every day with graphs, everything is ok...
Does anyone know how to disable cpanel urchin access, and only use the IP:9999 access to manage and view all statistics...
But I'm not sure how much power it actually takes to generate theses MRTG stats... The server is a Celeron D 2.8Ghz, 512Mb ATA soft raid system. Do you think that I should update the stats less frequently to decrease the server usage?

Should I trust my host with providing correct BW stats? Is there any way I can confirm those stats? (I don't have any tracking software or log analyzer installed because it uses too much resources.) The log file is tiny. Probably no more than 12-24 hours logged.
IMPORTANT: Do not ignore this email. This is cPanel stats runner on server.dealsreferals.com! While processing the log files for user stnudee, the cpu has been maxed out for more than a 6 hour period. The current load/uptime line on the server at the time of this email is 09:35:21 up 6 days, 22:32, 0 users, load average: 2.76, 19.13, 52.20 You should check the server to see why the load is so high and take steps to lower the load. If you want stats to continue to run even with a high load; Edit /var/cpanel/cpanel.config and change extracpus to a number larger then 0 (run /usr/local/cpanel/startup afterwards to pickup the changes).
