On my desktop I keep up with the Fedora life cycle by upgrading via DVD every six months or so, and I am currently running Fedora 9. By contrast, my hosted VPS based on OpenVZ/CentOS is still providing me with a Fedora Core 5 virtual environment. I used to keep up with FC5 updates via yum until FC5 maintenance ended, long ago. Question: is it possible to upgrade from Fedora Core 5 to Fedora 9 via yum and without any intervention on the current underlying VE by the VPS host? If so, how would I do that?
I have a server running Fedora 4 and WHM/cPanel. I would like to upgrade the linux kernel to the latest version, so mosey in via SSH and type "yum -y upgrade". It downloads a few things and tells me everything is hunky dory.
Now, the version it says it is currently running is: 2.6.17-1.2142_FC4 #1 Tue Jul 11 22:41:14 EDT 2006
Is that the really the newest version available? Maybe I'm confused as to how this works, but if I go to kernel.org it tells me the most recent stable version of the kernel is 2.6.24.3. Is this because I am running FC4?
Who has their VPS's released immediatly after signing up online? I'm looking to a VPS that I can sign up for online and have full access at least within an hour. And not an hour during a business day I mean right now I want to order and ahve access. I will not be faxing documents or scanning anything. Who does this? I'm pissed about the hoops an unamed VPSprovider has been putting me through the last few days just for a stupid $30 a month VPS. They will never get my business again.
After going through the forums here, i can see i am not the only one who has had this sort of problem with servage, but i am afraid mine is a bit more complicated.
I should also mention, that up to about a month ago, i was a very happy servage customer.
I always received good service, in short time and had a very very good uptime.
So, about 3-4 weeks ago, the time for renewing my registration came (i have been with servage for 3 years now), ofcourse - since i am happy with the service, i log into my cpanel - click "pay for another year" and make the payment on paypal.
On that same day, i also noticed the amount removed from my credit account and paypal noted that the transaction was completed (meaning it was transferred to the other side).
The next day, i get an email from servage telling me my account needs to be renewd - so i don't waste any time and open a support ticket, providing the full information i have for the transaction. In return i get the response, that it will probably take 2-3 days for the transaction to fully process.
Mind you, that has NEVER happened before - everything was always immediate, which was one of the things i liked about servage.
So i thought, maybe they are having more customers, so it takes them longer to process - ok...
But, after 4 more days of receiving these annoying emails, i hop back to the support system and update them that something is wrong. they ask for the details i already gave them, but i give it to them again, and i get the response that they are taking care of it.
I was out of the country on a business trip for the next 2 weeks and the day after i come back i get an email that my account was suspended for not paying.
I open the support page again, and i see no reply from them stating there is a problem with the statement. So, i open another ticket - asking them what is wrong and requesting that my site be immediately returned online, since they had enough time in advance to deal with this.
I get the reply, that they did not receive any transfer from me and that i should pay. Now i'm really pissed, not only did i pay - i had also notified them on the problem, gave them full details, and now they want me to pay twice...?
I ask paypal for confirmation that the payment indeed made it through and i get the response that everything should be ok and a documented proof.
Suspecting this is some scam, I give the full details to the support staff and ask again for my site to be returned online immediately.
I get the response again that they have no such record and that i should pay (again?). Now I'm pretty worried - they have fully documented proof of the payment, but they still claim to not have gotten it - something must be wrong!
So i start a dispute on paypal on my transaction, in order to get my money back, and start looking for another host.
I sent them the response that i wish to speak to someone in management who can help resolve this, but i get the response that they can see i opened a dispute and that i should pay, they also locked my domain as clientTransferProhibited and clientUpdateProhibited.
So, all of the sudden they can see the payment - how about saying we are sorry, some compensation for the downtime? i would have gone for it...
Instead - they keep asking me to pay for a full year, and when i ask the email of someone in management - i get no response at all.
There is something fishy definitely gone on, i have seen some people on this forum suggesting they were hacked, or have gone into the scam business. all those seem possible now through my ordeal with them.
I just want this over so i can get MY domain on another host, anyone know someone there? have an email? a phone number (i tried the ones i found here - all do not work)? a skype contact?
how to get MY domain back or how to avoid this situation in the future (should i register my domain with another company? but they may tank as well...)?
We signed up with Cyberheart IT Online because they claim to be a BusinessTrust and Trustsg Company for web hosting (from January 2006 until January 2007) and 3 domain registration and a sql database.
During the year we had 3 main problems as follows; 1. unable to log in via web mail and each time we asked Cyberheart on this the reply is not to use web mail as it is unstable despite us telling them that we travel often and need the service which is included in the hosting plan.
2. When we logged into our web control panel to perform administration, we received messages saying that another user was logged into the system. We asked Cyberheart about this but received no reply or no solution.
3. We initiated a transfer to another Hosting company on the 20th of December 2006. Cyberheart replied to my email with explanation of what issues they had and I should move to their new server. We refused and asked Cyberheart to affect the transfer.
Cyberheart asked for DNS numbers after we sent repeated emails to ask them the status but delayed the transfer and withheld the correct EPP key until one of my critical domain expired on the 07/01/2007.
My new hosting company in the US advises me to renew my domain with Cyberheart so that we can continue with the transfer as they cannot do anything until Cyberheart provides the correct Authentication or EPP key. We suffered with our websites down and emails not working.
We asked registrar WEB COMMERCE COMMUNICATIONS LIMITED DBA WEBNIC.CC to intervene and only after did Cyberheart reply on the 10/01/2007 that we had outstanding invoice and Cyberheart will not provide the EPP key until we paid. We asked for the invoice to affect the payment and Cyberheart did not reply until the second reminder email today (11/01/2007). In the email (with no invoice) Cyberheart asked for $129.00 per domain name renewed which totals $258.00. The initial quoted amount was $18.00 per domain registration.
We have sent another email today to ask for a official corrected bill, still no reply.
We want the Authentication key to affect the hosting transfer. We do not want any other dealings with this unethical company but do not want to be bullied into paying what Cyberheart arbitrarily charge.
I have dedicated server with Gentoo Release 2 (installed Apache 2, mail, admin, PHP 5, MySQL 5). What I need to do next? How to more secure that server?
Recently Debian released point release .6 of Debian Wheezy (Debian 7). This change in version number is causing all Plesk updates and upgrades to fail, due to 404 errors:
Code: Getting new version of Parallels Installer... File downloading parallels_installer_Debian_7.6_x86_64.md5sum: ERROR: The required version '3.16.20' was not found on the server. This could happen because of configuration error at the download site. Failed to download the package [url] ....
The requested URL returned error: 404...This has been going on a couple of days. When will this be fixed?
Is it possible to see what e-mails are blocked/prohibited by Plesk Outgoing mail control? Currently i've set a limit of 20 mails on each mailbox. Yesterday I received an e-mail that there were messages blocked. For me personally it would be good to see what the receivers email adresses are and optionally what the content of the e-mail was. This way I can find out if it was really spam or not.
If the e-mails weren't spam, is there a possibility to release and send them?
I am having a problem with YUM on Fedora 5, for a long time it has not worked saying there is nothing to update when I know there is, I have tried to correct this by following a forum post of someone having the same problem, now I have really messed things up...
When I type any yum command (yum, yum --version, yum check-update etc) I get the following error:
Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/yum", line 28, in ? import yummain File "/usr/share/yum-cli/yummain.py", line 29, in ? from yum import logginglevels ImportError: cannot import name logginglevels
perhaps removing it and installing the latest version of Yum would help however tried that and it seems to make no difference, perhaps I am doing it wrong?

We recently setup a server with 4 gigs of RAM and installed Fedora core 7 32-bit version in it. After installing the OS, I have found that Fedora is able to detect only 2 GB and not 4 GB of RAM. I installed the kernel-PAE and kernel-PAE-devel modules and restart the server and made sure that the the OS with the PAE switch starts at boot time. However, the OS still does not detect the 4 GB RAM. Any idea what else can be done apart from installing the 64-bit OS in the system?

My server was just upgraded to FC6 and now I do not have pico for a editor. I found nano but there is problems. Screen does not refresh correctly and when I type in charaters sometimes extra charaters show up.
Are there any other screen editors built in to FC6 (not vi)

get my development box set up running LAMP. I have Fedora 7 currently installed but don't really know much about setting up the environment to host multiple sites (development purposes only), getting Phpmyadmin set up, etc. I'm used to typically doing my dev with with apache2triad on Windows but would much rather be working on a Linux box for development as i do my hosting in a Linux environment as well.
