I have domain1.com as the main domain that I am using with cpanel and domain2.com as an addon domain that points to a different directory.
I want to move domain1.com to another server and I would like to know if I can make domain2.com the main one
Lets say I have abcd.com as the main domain on cpanel. abcd.com has 10 subdomains.
Basically what I want to do is when I do an addon domain or parked domain I want the subdomains to basically point to abcd.com automatically. Let's say the addon/parked
domain is 1234.com
For example I have
sub.abcd.com as the main subdomain
so when I type in sub.1234.com I want it pointed to sub.abcd.com internally meaning the script/files from there however in the browser show as if it were sub.1234.com
what are the differences?

I have cpanel, centos, whm. Wondering if this will effect down time and such?
When a hosting said: 10 domain addons, does it mean, I can have up to 10 domains with different content?
In other words, the 10 domain will NOT point to the same content.?
I have a domain with 2 addon domains added to it.
Lets call the domain1.com and the addons are domain2.com and domain3.com
I transfered the sites from one server to my server and know if I try to goto domain2.com or domain3.com they are not found.
If I goto domain1.com/domain2 (or 3) it works just fine though.
I tried to do the addon domain in cpanel but it is coming up with the following errors.
Bind reloading on server using rndc zone: [domain1.com] The subdomain, domain2.domain1.com has been added.
Error from park wrapper: domain2.com is already configured.
Removed domain2.domain1.com Server at line: 1244. Removed Entry from httpd.conf Bind reloading on server using rndc zone: [domain1.com] The subdomain, domain2.domain1.com has been removed.
domain2.com could not be setup. The subdomain domain2.domain1.com was not setup either.
How can I fix this?
I did try to make domain2 its own account after that, but the script did not work for some reason even though it does if I goto domain1.com/domain2.
I know it must be something simple I am missing, but for the life of me I am drawing a blank.
Also, I moved the site by doing a complete backup in Cpanel and uploaded that to the new server and restored it from the WHM backup screen.
I currently have an established domain, mainsite.com, which is running PHP-Nuke on the directory /home, with a redirect accordingly.
Now, I've created an addon domain, 2ndsite.com, for which I've installed Wordpress at the top-level.
The trouble is, 2ndsite.com defaults to mainsite.com/home - unless I redirect 2ndsite.com to mainsite.com/2ndsite. If I do that, I can then see my WordPress installation.
I'd obviously like to have 2ndsite.com be viewed from that address, as opposed to a subdir under mainsite.com - that is why I got the domain in the first place.
I know from past experiences, a VPS is not suppose to be setup on a sub domain for the main domain name account. My VPS was setup on a sub domain which is not allowing my domain name to resolve the with the DNS server. How to fix this issue? I have been speaking with support all day, and we have fixed a few minor issues but my major concern is yet to be fixed and I'm still sending support tickets ( and they are working on it ) but it's been an all day afair...any sugestions from the peanut gallery?

Apache is working on your cPanel and WHM⢠Server" cPanel and Apache page. The domain is already more then 2 days and ping already propogate to server. May i know is httpd.conf or mod_security problem?
Can a domain be parked on an addon domain in a cPanel server?
At first thought I do not see it as a problem as a ServerAlias directive for the parked inside the addon domain Virtual Host container inside httpd.conf is all is required but cPanel may not allow for all it's wisdom.
Let me know if cPanel would pose a problem or wouldn't allow this scenario.
I have setup an Addon Domain in cPanel.
[url]is pointing to:
[url]
That is working fine, test it for yourself.
However, I want the URL in the browser to read: [url]but currently as you can see the long URL appears.
How can I make the short clean URL appear in the browser?
Currently, 2 domains hosted on a dedicated server with each account having its own Cpanel. I'm going to move/migrate these 2 domains to a shared hosting server.
The shared hosting accont has Cpanel and I've added 2 Add-on domains (the same ones on the dedicated). In total, there are 3 domains under the shared hosting account; The main domain and the 2 other (add-on) domains.
My question is it possible to restore these 2 accounts under a single cpanel account and having all the emails intact? So, in essence, I'm having a single cpanel account to manage the 2 domains to be transferred from the dedicated.
I have recently just purchased an unmanaged vps from poundhost. I have never used a vps before so we shelled out for a WHM control panel! The issue now is that we do not have a nameserver set up or any main domain to use as a nameserver.
We have the main IP address and two additional IP's given to us by poundhost, how do I use these to start hosting and managing websites?
I have a domain name as per my sig. I am also creating a subdomain totally in contrast with that site below. My primary domain has one page on it so i would like to:
a) delete the one page on my primary domain
b) Make the contents of my subdomain my primary domain. e.g my domain is www.info-peep.com, my sub will be example.info-peep.com........i would like to make example.info-peep.com : www.info-peep.com......that make sense, as really the sub will be my main site.
Basically wanting to transfer the contents of my sub to my primary. So when people click info-peep.com, it will be the sub's site. Another thing to note is that i am using RVsitebuilder (WYSIWYG) that my web host provides. Also BEAR IN MIND the WYSIWYG editor does not allow me to move pages (sucks) or to copy the page contents.
I have my main domain (domain.com) and it is where all my sites and customer sites are pointed to (ns1.domain.com and ns2.domain.com).
I just purchased a VPS and have made (domain.com) my main domain as I want it to be because of keeping the nameservers the same for my clients.
My vision is this, I will transfer all the sites from my old cPanel account to my new DirectAdmin account. I have setup a time to let my clients know not to update any content on their sites. At that time I will then download the sites from the cPanel account to the DA account. I will then move my main domain (domain.com) over as well and then change the name server registries at namecheap.
I understand some things can get lost in this switch, but ALL clients are aware of this and understand. They will still have access to the old server via the IP address to check for misdirected mail.
Is this the simplest way to get this done?
Is there a better way, with using the main domain?
I have 2 domains on 1 account. My main website is www.aviationcafe.net and i added on www.modelcuir.com thats what it looks like to the public. But with my host it will be www.modelcuir.aviationcafe.net.
I noticed in the files area that modelcuir is it's own file, i can password protect that but it will stop people getting onto the website completly and i only want to stop them getting into the members area.
I can't create a members area either unless i can add a new folder which i can't i dont think.
I have an addon domain running on my webhosting along side my primary account. I am mostly using the Thunderbird client to send e-mails. 80% of the time when I send a mail out from "name@addondomain.com" hotmail, gmail, yahoo all see it as spam!
What's ironic is I receive more darn adult e-mails in my free accounts than anything else, and yet it's thinking the occasional mass personal message is SPAM?
So these guys that flood my inbox daily must know something I don't?
Is there something I'm doing incorrectly? Or do I need to change a hosting package setting, should I use different software such as a php mailing list?
When trying to make a subdomain on my main cpanel domain, through cpanel, it acts like it is making it, and adds the dns entry, but it does not work. All other domains work fine.
I submitted a ticket to buycpanel, they asked for the login information this morning, and have not heard back from them. This has happened every since they installed cpanel.
I am hoping its something simple that one of you knowledgeable people may know how to fix.
I'm trying to understand more the Pro's and Con's for having an Addon Domain vs Separate domain.
Here's my use for it. Site1.com holds all the files, Site2.com holds all the video and images. When it comes time to add a second server (end of this year) I could move Site2.com to a second server and nfs mount it. Thats of the site is separate. PROBLEM: separate site means permission problems, when write code ie.php you can unlink / move files without permission which means setting up special groups.
Addon domain doesn't have the permission problem from what I can see, since the domain gets the group access of the Mainsite. so no extra configuration required. now the problem would be how do I get that addon domain to a second server to offload some of the resources.
Now that I am on a VPS, I have a handful of addon domains (linked to subdomains) that I want to move to individual Cpanel accounts.
Is there any shortcut to doing this (moving DB's, emails, etc.), or do I just need to create the cpanel account, recreate the emails, restore the DBs, etc.?
