Looking For Host That Supports $_SERVER['PATH_INFO']


I am finishing up on my clients site and the ecommerce software we use has an option for search engine friendly URL's but your server must support $_SERVER['PATH_INFO'] . My client is hosted by GoDaddy and my host (HostGator) does not support it unless you go dedicated.

I need $_SERVER['PATH_INFO']
Dedicated IP, PHP, MySQL, .htaccess support
preferably CPanel - not Plesk
Less than $120 / year

I am looking for a well established company like the ones I previously mentioned because my client wants peace of mind and I don't want to screw him over.

Invalid Command 'php_flag' - After Recompiling PHP & Apache?
After I recompiled Apache and PHP using easyapache from cPanel, we started getting all these weird errors. I'm getting a few people now complaining about not being able to enable register_globals. I believe (after searching) that having this enabled is a big security risk and shouldn't need to be used. However, some people apparently where using .haccess and php_flag to enable this. I did find on a few places that people can create their own php.ini file to emulate what was previously done with .htaccess?

After searching around..

I found out that Register Globals can become a security risk based on the scripts configuration that uses it. This feature normally can be enabled via .htaccess using the glad "php_flag register_globals On". Creating a file called php.ini inside the directory of the site with the flag "register_globals=on" I believe will also enable this option. To enable this option on a global scale, you can edit '/usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/etc/php.ini', but its not recommended.

However.. We are unable to get the php.ini concept to work. Is there something I need to do to enable/allow users to do this for their account?

Any 'easy' Smtp / Pop / Imap Package Or Installer W/o Having To Read Up On Exim Etc.?
any 'easy' smtp / pop / imap package or installer w/o having to read up on exim etc.?

I want an email server quickly, w/o having to become an expert...

I'd go w/ a hosted service, but I open allot of pop3 connections... (program I use downloads one email, closes connection, reopens... repeat)...

There's lots of cookbooks out there, but they require quite a bit more time commitment (and configurability) than I want / need.

Is there any dumbified installs available? I tried with webmin, but even that wants me to manually configure a postfix / imap server bridge.=

Qmail - I'm Afraid I Wasn't Able To Deliver Your Message
Basically a client has been getting really bad email problems with their email. They keep getting the standard qmail msg back from several emails. I originally thought this msg was being returned as it was an invalid receipients address, but they are assuring me that this is not the case?

Anyway the basic msg they are getting is:

Hi. This is the qmail-send program at p16489287.pureserver.info.
I'm afraid I wasn't able to deliver your message to the following addresses.
This is a permanent error; I've given up. Sorry it didn't work out ....

BoxVPS = Useless | STAY AWAY From This 'company'
URL: http://www.boxvps.com

Their recent promotion thread:

http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?t=889733

Extremely non-professional service. Took them 48 hours to setup my VPS. Also had to create a support ticket. And when it was finally delivered, there was no DirectAdmin on it. Specially disturbing, since I actually paid for a monthly license.

Not to mention that their responses are very vague. They claim to apply the promotions (triple disk space, double bandwidth) 24 hours after they setup the VPS. I have no idea why they do that.

Moreover, they have false advertising on their VPS page (Instant Activation..where it should read 'We don't activate your VPS unless you create a support ticket).

A speedtest from the VPS showed that the VPS is capable of bursting to a maximum of 10mbps, while average speed is barely 2mbps.

Stay away from these guys. They're potential scammers. They WILL scam.. sooner or later.

What Is The Reverse Command For 'mount --bind'
A few days ago, when installing TUX, I have mounted the virtual hosting directory to var/www/html/mywebsite.com (that's an empty directory I created in order for TUX to work) via:

mount --bind /home/virtual/site1/fst/var/www/html/ /var/www/html/mywebsite.com/

command.....

After figuring out that TUX has some problems I reverted everything but not this mount --bind command.. What is the reverse command for this, so everything will come back to the point which they were before?

Host That Doesn't Lie About Bandwidth Space?
I am sure this thread was most likely created before but I haven't been able to find anything on the particular host I just had an issue with.

It goes like this.

I've been through web hosts ever since 1998. I've grown accustomed to web hosts deceiving their customers by listing '20 gigs of BW use, or 'Unlimited BW' (which we all know is BS) but for the past few years, I actually had a host who didn't lie about how much BW their customers got with the packages. I signed up for a 20 gig BW account with HostVector and I've used up to 19 gigs and they have never said a single word. I left them recently because they were bought out by Millennium Services and ever since then, its been a nightmare. Constant down time, tech support nowhere to be found. Sadly to say, I had to leave that host due to fact that their new owners have no clue what they are doing.

I found ELIEF and thought they looked promising. I signed up for the package that listed 20 gigs of BW, now at first I thought okay.. this may be fishy, but if this was a flake, they would have specified that customers really won't get 20 gigs of BW.

Regardless, I trusted them the way I trusted HostVector. Seeing how I am a musician, I uploaded a 80MB pack and sent it to some friends to download and not even a 12 hours later. My account was suspended because it apparently caused their server to crash?

I checked the stats and only 68 users downloaded that 80MB file.

This is beyond aggravating. I know there are countless web hosts who lie about this type of stuff but why cant at least specify someplace on their page a more detailed info about bandwidth usage? Maybe put an asterisks next to the BW section like some hosts do and explain that what is listed there is not the reality.

So here I am, my domain is suspended. My fans/listeners/friends are wondering what happened and I am sitting here angered beyond belief because I thought this type of lying was something that hosts stopped doing in the late 90s.

Any recommendation guys? Does an honest web host who actually offers the same amount of BW they list on their hosting packages, exist anywhere?

1and1 Won't Host A Domain Name Without Extra Charge?
I was looking for a domain name and registered it with 1and1 last year, for UK 11 pounds approximately. I then found that they were also charging me approx 30 UK pounds every six months for web hosting space that I did not ask for as I have a great host elsewhere. I have gone to their site and tried to cancel the web hosting while retaining the domain name but it only allows me to cancel the domain name, which I don't want to do. I have tried contacting them multiple times over this additional charge and get stonewalled every time with a standard response that the money is due on my contract. In the circumstances I would like to transfer the domain name to another host as renewal is a couple of months away, but I'm scared that they'll find some way to stop me doing that? ....

Don't Use Bluehost
So when you got a website for a service and it says "$6 per month for 3 years" would you take that as they charge you monthly, $6?

Well Bluehost doesn't. They charged me $250 and I didn't realize what they were doing until the charge went through.

I called within 24 hours and spoke to billing. I cancelled the entire service. She said it was only a "hold" on my account and she would make the hold credit me back and it would be done within a few hours and that I would receive an email from her confirming. Well, I got another confirmation email NOT a we are cancelling the service email.

Then, one $250 charge dropped off... AND TWO MORE APPEARED.

In one of the confirmation emails they sent there was an email address for the help desk. So I emailed this to them. I am not speaking to them on the phone. I want it in writing this time. Two seconds after I sent the email I got an auto response telling me they don't read the email and I must formally put in a ticket.

I didn't think I would be able to since my account was supposed to be cancelled. Well, it did let me log in. She didn't cancel it and if she did she went and put it back in again twice.

DON'T BUY ANYTHING FROM THESE PEOPLE.

I don't need the language extensions, but without the encryption and image extensions my site is "broken" and I was hoping to use more XML this winter. I am looking for another LAMP host with these extensions enabled.

What's Bandwidth Worth?
So I run a small music forum site. We used to have the ability for our users to download music track sets. We had over 100 files that are generally around 80MB and the users could add more so our space requirements would increase over time.

We initially set this up with dreamhost.com (unlimited bandwidth/space) but they eventually asked us to stop using the space as a data repository and wanted to charge $1 per GB transferred (which at that time was about $100-120/month).

The Problem:

This is something our users want and would probably pay for. I'm sort of asking for advice on how to approach this problem. Need to figure out how we could set this up and what to charge the users for downloading the music files (price per file, monthly plans, etc). Considering we want to keep it cheap enough that users will pay and the hosting costs would probably rise with the demand and exposure of the program. What sort of hosts should I be looking for?

Downloading And Streaming.... Use's Up The Same Mb?
I have a friend who we were debating about this.

He says he called up the internet company and upgraded his monthly plan to 60 gig or downloading a month, because he loves watching steaming videos(not youtube) im talking about actual movies.

They told him if he downloaded a 700mb movie or if he watched the exact same movie it would use up 700mb

So according to them downloading or streaming uses the same mb.

I found this hard to believe. But i have no wa of proving it.

What is the answer?

VLAN Routed IP's
So I have a bunch of IP's that are routed a VLAN a bunch of machines are on which is great. They can be put on any machine, but the problem right now is it is taking up to 4 hours for them to route from one machine to another (I am doing it one IP at a time not by blocks)

The process of adding and removing ip's is being done through cPanel's WHM. The reasoning for this is due to ARP on the router for the specific IP. This is a big issue if you're looking to migrate IP's from one machine to another that contain customers this is a long wait.

Now from the datacenter I was told you're going to need to wait the 4 hours for the refresh. Now what's strange is I was also told virtuozo apparently can swap ip's to other boxes without issues because it apparently it has a mechanism in place to release the ip's from the router/switch by communicating to it so the old arp is gone. I also asked someone using OpenVZ and they said theirs was instant as well to swap between boxes.

So is there a special command I should be issueing to get the router/switch to drop the IP instantly? Or any suggestions on how to get this to be more instant than ~4 hours for an IP to route to the correct machine.

OpenVZ - HN Can't Ping VE
I'm running my own OpenVZ server with a few VPS's running on it and have a small network issue.

I can't ping any VE from the HN. All the other networking is working ok (strangely I can ping the HN from the VE) apart from this. It's a simple setup with one network card connected to the internet.

OpenVZ the latest stable version running on CentOS 5.2

I'm pretty sure it's not a firewall problem but is something to do with arp or routing and one of the settings in sysctl.conf

Has anyone else seen this?

Lunarpages - It's A Big Truck
Lunarpages - it's a big truck

I've been helping a friend with a site hosted at Lunarpages for a few years, a very low traffic business site in a shared hosting account, no real complaints.

But 48 hours ago they got an odd email from Lunarpages describing the relocation of their server to a new datacenter, which involved 3-4 hours of downtime to drive the server from LA to San Diego, plus another hour or so of setup.

Now this was confusing because I thought that the internet was not a big truck -- it's a series of tubes, right? In fact, I thought that the whole point of the internet was not having to move your data by truck. But hey, this is an inexpensive shared account, so maybe Lunarpages does move all their data by truck. Kinda short notice on that, but okay, fine. A couple hours downtime.
The website and email go dead at noon. The exact time was not announced in the notice, and mid-day mid-week seems like an odd time to deliberately schedule downtime, especially when it involves a long drive in traffic on the 5 freeway. But it is an inexpensive account, so... we wait.

And wait.

And wait.

Six hours later, we contact Lunarpages support asking what's up with the server. This being my friend's business website, business email, gone for most of the day. Was there an accident on the freeway? Did the truck driver get lost? Did the data end up in a cul-de-sac in Orange County? Were they stopped while making a run for the border?

An hour later, we finally hear back on the ticket -- Lunarpages hasn't heard from their "admins" (presumably due to a bad battery in their CB radio) but they hope to have things migrated "soon."
So we wait.

Eleven hours after the site and email went down, we send a reply on the ticket asking a few more questions. 1) Any update on that migration? 2) Could you explain this whole deal with the truck driving the data from city to city? 3) Do you have any compensation for ridiculous downtime?
An hour later, the Lunarpages reply: Migration done soon. Sorry for the inconvenience. No compensation at all, especially for "scheduled" downtime.

As of now, the server is still down and has been offline for about 14 hours. While I do hope the driver of the truck is okay, I have no such benevolent feelings for Lunarpages. When (if??) the site comes back up, we're transferring to a host that doesn't rely on the the LA freeway system to migrate their data. I hear there's this newfangled "network" thing the kids are in to. We'll probably try that out instead.

Lunarpages sure is cheap. And most of the time, they work okay. But you should probably avoid them if you value advance scheduling of downtime, rapid support, clear communication, or reliable access to your website and email.

What's The Maximum Number Of Rules For Iptables?
I use APF and APF is working with iptables , when I define a large number of IPs in deny_hosts.rules or allow_hosts.rules and restart the APF , iptables begins to display errors after applying some number of rules , I have set SET_TRIM="0" in APF , so the number of APF rules is unlimited and the error is from iptables.

Is there any setting in iptables config files for maximum number of rules?

Is it unlimited and depends only on system available memory? O/S , ...?

Maxed Disk Usage, Can't Trace
root@server # df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda3 145G 145G 0 100% /

/tmp 6.7G 74M 6.3G 2% /var/tmp]


I cannot trace where the usage is coming from. There is only one account on this box using 26GB. Its a centos/cpanel box. I checked /var/log and had already deleted audit.d directory. /usr/local/apache/domlogs and logs show almost nothing.

How Big Risk Do I Take If I Don't Update The Kernel?
I'm a Windows guy and can little or nothing about Linux. How big risk do I take if I'm using a Linux VPS and never update/patch the kernel?

I'm using CentOS 5 and LxAdmin. I can update the control panel, but I can not update/patch the kernel since I have no knowledge how I do that.

I'm using a unmanaged plan, so no help there.

Some of my sites are running Wordpress, but I'm always using the lates WP installation. I not using any other plugins that WG2, Gallery2, and remove max width.

Nobody except me have access to the VPS, and I have no other FTP accounts or something like that on the VPS.

I have no other scripts or any kind of dynamic pages on my VPS.

What kind of risk do I have here?

I'm currently having plans to cancel my second VPS that's using Win2003, and only use Linux in the future. I can cut my monthly expensive with 50% that way, but do I take a big risk doing it that way?

Reccomend MidPhase - Best Damn Dedicated Server I've Ever Had
Just wanted to drop a note here..

A while back I came here looking for a dedicated server because I was having some issues with a VPS I was hosting on.

I came across a great deal.

Quad Core Xeon / 4GB Ram 250GB HD at a steal of a price..

Since then my server has been up since install, never had a moment of downtime what so ever, hardware is great, support is on point and all hours of the day they respond. I deleted my password from my email and needed to get into my box. I was in within 30 minutes, prolly less.

Gave me a choice of 3 datacenters to choose from.

Anyways.

Great Servers / Hardware / Support / Bandwidth / ON POINT!!

By far the best damn dedicated hosting provider I have dealt with throughout the years.

Appreciate it guys.

What's The Best Way To Setup Offsite Email (rackspace) With Server
We have a server where we host the sites and email services, and we are looking to buy a MS Exchange offsite email solution in order to have a reliable dedicated email service.

We are thinking on going with Rackspace MS Exchange solution:
http://www.rackspace.com/email_hosting/exchange_hosting

So now its the hard part, i run my own dns / nameservers at this server so if i just change the mx at my Plesk panel if my webserver goes offline my email will also stop working, correct?

And at my registrar i only can change the name of the nameservers and the ips... and also add more nameservers (im using 2 ns).

So i need to figure it out how to config/setup the rackspace email in a way that when my webserver goes offline my email can keep up working.

The rackspace support team, said to me that they can host/run my dns on their servers in order to have my email working if my webserver goes offline.

So what do you think? Its a goo idea? The only idea?

Or there are better ideas?

IP's On Virtual Private Server (VPS) Plans
Question about IP's on VPS plans

A lot of providers say "2 IP's included" or something to that effect when advertising their plans.
What exactly does this mean? The number of dedicated IP's? The number of websites you can host?
