im making a website and my friend told me that first i have to change the name of a server on the cpanel for configurate the publichtml files. i dont see where i can change it. please be specific if you are going to reply and thanks for read this.
I have a client on a dedicated IP, today we needed to downgrade the web hosting plan. As the web hosting plan puts users on a default shared IP, this plan change also changed the dedicated IP to the shared one causing some propagation issues for a small period of time.
I have contacted WHMCS about this asking if they had a way of changing the clients plan but keeping the IP address intact as this could lead to some very undesirable outcomes. They explained that it is not their fault and to contact Parallels.
I know I can change the plan directly in Plesk however by initiating the plan change via WHMCS, everything is automated.
Has anyone helped clients transition from one domain to another? Maybe dissolving a partnership or renaming their company... so a new domain name has been registered and a new website created.
2 Issues:
#1 Using .htaccess 301 redirect We used the following command line in their old website's htaccess file
Redirect 301 / [url]
The goal was to get people try to visit any page of their old website (i.e. OldWebsite.com/contact.html) redirected to their new website (i.e. NewWebsite.com/contact.html). Isn't that supposed to change the address bar's URL, too? For some reason, I visit their old site and I seem to be redirected to their new website but the address bar still has their old domain name? Something is going on???
#2 Having their new company name for 2 years now. People can enter her new company name in Google, MSN or Yahoo. Her new company name appears in the search results but has the old domain name associated with it. We are trying to get rid of any reference to that old domain name? What's the easiest way to do this? So what people see in search engines is:
New Company Short Meta Description www.OldDomain.com
What steps did I miss in this transition?
What steps do I have to take on their old website/old web server to control it's appearance on search engines and make sure people get to the new website?
I currently have a dedicated server at volumedrive and want to transfer my site over. I have the following setting but not sure why it doesn't work.
On the WHM, I have:
Main >> Server Configuration >> Basic cPanel/WHM Setup
Main Shared Virtual Host IP........................12.345.67.89 (IP from the new host) Hostname....................................................server.mysite.com Primary Namserver.....................................ns1.mysite.com Secondary Nameserver..............................ns2.mysite.com ___________________________________________
Main >> Networking Setup >> Hostname Current Hostname..............................server.mysite.com ____________________________________________
Main >> Networking Setup >> Nameserver IPs
Ip 12.345.67.89 ns1.mysite.com 12.345.67.99 ns2.mysite.com ________________________________________
Main >> Networking Setup >> Resolver Configuration
At the registrar godaddy, I have the existing name server set as ns1.mysite.com and ns2.mysite.com from prior server already. what other setting do I have to do to make my site working properly ?
I have a reseller package with HostGator.com , and I had one of my personal sites on it.
The site was growing too fast, and taking up too much of my reseller package, so i bought another normal hosting package from hostgator. They did a complete site copy onto the new server (same account name for site, just on a different one of their servers)
Old: (URL address blocked: See forum rules)~midnight/ New: (URL address blocked: See forum rules)~midnight/
I did this swap over 7 days ago. It was successful, everything worked, did my DNS swap and i thought that was it.
Now for the confusing part. when i type in my domain ((URL address blocked: See forum rules)) it shows up perfect, as it should, as it does with 75% of my members
BUT
For the other 25%, its showing up as the old server. I have been onto my domain supplier, and they said all is fine at their end, they are seeing the site as they should, have been onto hostgator, and it works for them, they cant understand what it can be.
Not only this, but people who can get on, might still get the old servers at times. People who cant get on, can get on from different computers in different houses (hope that makes sense)
I was about to change the site back to my reseller package and scrap the new hosting, but said i would seek advice from other webmasters first.
Has anybody ever experienced this before? How is it solved? What can i do?
Hostzio is down still, so I'm planning on moving my websites to yet another server/reselling account. I was wondering if my account with Hostzio is still active, if I can transfer the domains to another server without any problems? There would be about 10 domains I'd have to transfer from my old account to the new one.
namecheap.com to allow a nameserver change? I have sent seven e-mails and received 10 un-helpful messages. One even said, "Hello, What is the issue in whcih you are having? I want to move to yahoo.
is there any simple write up or method to change the main server IP in WHM/Cpanel without screwing anything up? I have some new better IPs I wish to use for the servers base IP and accounts but I'm not sure what exactly needs to be changed to make the transfer without breaking anything.
So we just switched servers, but some people are reporting that they can either not access the site, or are not being displayed the newest content. What is causing this?
I have purchased a dedicated server because my existing host gives me a database error during high traffic. the error is
Code:
"Cannot connect to MySQL: User admin0506 has already more than 'max_user_connections' active connections"
Now in my dedicated server I have root access and a Plesk control panel with admin access. I have created a database but I don't know how to change the parameter "max_user_connections". Please help me because I am loosing lot of business due to this issue.
i have a dedicated server with 5 usable IP's in range xxx.242 to xxx.246
xx.xxx.120.242 <-- main shared IP xx.xxx.120.243 xx.xxx.120.244 <-- in use by my nameservers xx.xxx.120.245 <-- in use by my nameservers xx.xxx.120.246
When i select in WHM "Change Site's IP Address " and the account i want to change it shows me a drop down menu with the ip's of the nameservers AND the
xx.xxx.120.243
If i select that one the domain in the account shows the apache default page only inmediately.
I don't know why the xx.xxx.120.246 ip doesn't show or why the nameserver ip's appear because they are in use.
Do i need to wait for propagation or is this an error?
I have ever made a DNS Server change and I was curious how this is going to affect my e-mail.
Lets say this is my URL - www.testURL.com
I also have my e-mail setup as MyName@testURL.com
I now have a new host so we are going to change the DNS settings so www.testURL.com now points to the new web host. Is this going to affect my e-mail address MyName@testURL.com or do I also have to make a request to get the e-mail changed as well?
Most popular way of downloading these scripts is to use "wget" comman
when we need to change the command wget in our server for download some destructive script and run it through some server side program such as PHP or PERL ...
now i try to start this session by this command ...
after a number of hours I finally got myself an SSH connection to my Linux server. I created an account with bin/bash access, whatever that is, and got in. Phew, this is all new to me!
I can get to the ./configure prompt and all looks well when I type command --enable-magic-quotes but I refresh my phpinfo() and nothing has changed.
All I want to do is install Joomla!
My Joomla! installation tells me to action following: Set PHP magic_quotes_gpc setting to ON Set RG_EMULATION setting to `ON` instead of `OFF` in file globals.php Display Errors should be on Register Globals Emulation should be off instead of on
It's also telling me that the var/lib/php/session is unwriteable. Do I need to get shell access and command to do that too?
I've been on vacation w/ no internet for only 2 days, just got back today, and my website now has an internal server error. It worked right before I left and now it doesn't, and nothing was added....
