How Do I Install Wordpress Before My DNS Settings Propagate
May 10, 2009
I have setup a new account through a reseller that supplies a shared IP. The way I have installed WordPress in the past is to use "localhost" as the MySQL database host name.
The problem is that I want to complete the installation and style the site before I transfer the domain name and propagate the DNS settings. I am currently receiving errors that say "Error establishing a database connection".
I have also tried several variations of the shared IP address in place of the "localhost". So instead of using "localhost" I have tried using the link if I were to preview the site, for example [url]
Can someone tell me if it is possible to replace the string entry of "localhost" with a number or something else so that I can complete the installation of WordPress?

Has anyone installed WordPress successfully from a host using Helm version 3?
I can setup the mysql database and user but I cannot seem to change the permissions for the user and I think this is causing the install problem.

So I have a client using Wordpress 3.6, so the scan does little good.
I update the Wordpress to 4.1.1 and do the Scan again. Plesk cannot find the updated install of WP still?

Did a fresh WordPress install on a subscription. I was able to install new plugins via WordPress, and directly upload a theme file without any issues. However, when I tried to use the WordPress import too (uploading an 11MB XML file) I received an Internal Server Error, which brought the entire site down. No part of the WordPress site is accessible. Odd.
Checked the Plesk log - no errors there.Nothing in the IIS logs that shows an error either.When looking at the domain's logs, I see the 500 entry logged, but don't see any sort of reason for it having happened, to be able to resolve:
2015-03-23 15:43:59 W3SVC8 blackbird 66.147.239.188 GET / - 80 - 66.147.239.188 HTTP/1.1 Mozilla/5.0+(compatible;+MSIE+10.0;+Windows+NT+6.2;+WOW64;+Trident/6.0) - - tealeafswny.com.66-147-239-188.homeruncreative.com 500 0 0 331 288 3750

I can't get MAMP to work. I sadly uninstalled and AppZapped MAMP and reinstalled it. Now I can't get WordPress to install. I can make a DB on PHP MyAdmin but I get "not found" when I try the WordPress install. I can't get the PHP info? line to work either. How do you troubleshoot MAMP?Â

Window server 2012 r2: I installed wordpress on a domain using plesk. Seemed to work correctly. But when I went to the site www.example.com/wp-admin, the native or default wordpress install started up. I could find no way to bypass this, so I just re-entered all the same settings.
The result was that I ended up with 2 sets of database tables, one set named with my chosen prefix wp_blahblah_ and one set prefixed with wp_blahblah_wp_.
Not good, so I deleted the later set. Wordpress seems to be working, despite one error on the tables I can't reproduce.

Running Plesk 12.0.18 on Windows 2012
I create a new domain then use Plesk Applications tab to install Wordpress. It shows the message:
Code:
Error: Unable to install the app because its installation requirements are not met. Contact your hosting provider to resolve this problem.
Requirements
PHP extension
The 'mysql' extension was not found.
However, php is installed and phpinfo shows that the mysql extension is installed. I try different versions of php, cgi/fastcgi but ll fail with the same error. I install Wordpress via FTP and it works fine.
There are knowledge-base articles relating to this error but they are for Linux and the solutions don't work in this case:
[URL] ...
[URL] ...
Maybe the Wordpress database has to be created before using Plesk to install Wordpress? If so, what should the database name be? How does Plesk know what the name of the database is that it should use? Why doesn't Plesk just create a database to use?

I will have or not problems, (plesk compatibility) with this tool: URL....URL-Rewrite...I need install ModRewrite to use "Permanent Links" with some scripts like "Wordpress". I have try search on the web any alternative, and i found this.
I like know if this "URL-Rewrite" from Microsoft will cause me or not problems with my Plesk 11.5.Additional i like know, if i can create a file "web.config" and this file will accept all my custom configurations?.For example to activate the URL-Rewrite on a Wordpress Install:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<configuration>
<system.webServer>
<rewrite>
[code]....

If a Plesk admin wants to install Wordpress, the installation always fails.
1. Select Server Management -> Tools & Settings -> Security -> Security Policy
2. Select (*) Very strong
3. Confirm with OK
4. Select Hosting Services -> Domains
2. Select Domain
3. Select Button Install Apps
4. Select Wordpress in All Available Applications
5. Select Install
6. Error message is shown!
Error: Installation of WordPress at http://lyl-canbys.de/blog failed. Your password is not complex enough. According to the server policy, the minimal password strength is Very strong. To improve the password strength, use numbers, upper and lower-case characters, and special characters like !,@,#,$,%,^,&,*,?,_,~
But the password was complex enough. with 20 numbers+charcters+special chars!
I i lower Plesks Security Policy to (*) Strong, the Wordpress installation works. But lowering Security with password length 8 is not desireable.
Plesk 12.0.18 Update #24
Linux Debian 7.7
I think this is a bug in Plesk.

About a week ago, I registered gotcha-290.com using. I have registered 4 other names with them - no problems. I set the nameservers, and waited for them to propagate. Two days later, no success, so I changed the nameservers to ones that I knew were working for me. It appears not be completing this "propagation" cycle. Some whois shows nothing...and some show nameservers, and some say no ip assigned...

I have a yahoo domain and I plan to move it to a new host. i know it may take 24-48 hours for the new DNS to propagate.
my question is. Is it possible to forward my domain while DNS is being propagated? So my user will be taken to another website while dns is propagated.
I have access to domain forwarding as well as DNS change through my yahoo domain control panel
Thank you to all.

It's been a while I'm into web hosting and I know I have to wait up to 72 hours for DNS to propagate.
I've got that weird problem since I changed host, my DNS stays the same as before, even if I migrated since over a week.
I did the ipflush thing and it did not work. It seems like my computer WON'T update the DNS on this single domain.
I've got 2 computers at home and my other computer has updated, but my other won't update.

I recently set up a domain just the same way as a previous one. The old works, the new not. On the ui level they look the same:
plesk db "select * from dns_zone where id>12"
| id | name | displayName | status | syncSoa | syncRecords | email | serial | external_id |
| 13 | rubyclerks.org | rubyclerks.org | 0 | true | skip | torsten.ruger@gmail.com | 2015050605 |
| 15 | salama-vm.org | salama-vm.org | 0 | skip | skip | torsten.ruger@gmail.com | 2015051004 |
I cut out some stuff after email that is the same for both.
What I wonder is what the syncSoa=skip means and why it would be there ?
I did have this issue [URL] ....

how to set up dns correctly as I have been trying for over a day now and not succeeded!
The situation is that I am using whm/cpanel. I have a domain hosted with godaddy that I want to point at my vps space. I have entered the nameservers into godaddy, and it now shows the placeholder page when I go to my domain.
I have set-up a user with ftp access to my main domain in whm, and uploaded an index page to test.
If I type in my domain name it goes to the godaddy placeholder page, if I type in the IP address it goes to an apache 'great success' page, and if I go to the same IP but with the users name added, it goes to the index file I uploaded.
I have played around with dns zones and A records but cannot get the index page to show when I enter my main domain name.

Our business is in the middle of changing to a Exchange based Email Platform which will be take effect in a few months, NOT NOW but planning ahead I'm trying to help with the DNS issues behind the scene. The current Host and Registerar is flarehosting. However I have just transferred the Domain Name to my NAMECHEAP account and need to take over the DNS Controls. I want to make SURE this is done without ANY downtime for the company (website, current email system). After contacting the current host for correct settings I have 3 things I need help with.
newerafinance.com 208.21.164.25 (Used for Domain)
mail.newerafinance.com 208.21.167.4 (Used for WebBased Email AND pop/smtp)
MX is mail2.uploadmysite.com
I was told with the above info I need to setup ARecords, CNAME, and URL Redirect and MX records. Before I try this myself I’d like some help with how this should be setup.
Exchange server will up at a future date so we need the current Email system to remain the same. Half of our users use pop/smtp and other half web based email.

I have IIS on my computer and I want to start using a php driven forum (SMF) on my web site. Before I upload the files I need to check the following settings are on:
the engine directive must be On.
the magic_quotes_sybase directive must be set to Off.
the session.save_path directive must be set to a valid directory, or empty.
the file_uploads directive must be On.
the upload_tmp_dir must be set to a valid directory, or empty.
I cant find anywhere within IIS where these directions maybe found. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

I am being rejected by Hotmail when sending mail from my VPS. I want to send mails from punbb and OSCommerce, with various website hosted on one VPS/Cpanel/LAMP solution. And with sendmail or SMTP, it'a always the same : passing almost every ISP except Hotmail/Gmail. I also always get this part in my email header regardless of which website i'm sending email from :
Code:
Received: from host.locker4adream.com ([74.200.75.7])
by host.locker4adream.com with esmtpa (Exim 4.68)
So I think it's the host.locker4adream.com part that makes me rejected. Because it's almost the only line in the email header that is different when I am using Outlook/Thunderbird to send mail. This ip (74.200.75.7]) is mine and I never spammed or anything.
So i asked my host ro add rDNS. And I added this line to my DNS zone on my mail domain:
Code:
lockeradream TXT "v=spf1 mx a ptr ip4:74.200.75.7/32 ip4:74.200.81.156/32?all"
I am really out of solutions! Can anyone tell me if the SPF record stated above is ok?
