SellWHM Welcome Email Not Sent
Sep 26, 2008I ordered a vps from sellwhm on the 24th, and i still have not received a welcome email.
I know for a fact my order was accepted, and not marked as fraud, as ralph told me over live chat he was setting it up. He told me i would receive the welcome email after cpanel was installed; which i was told should take roughly 45mins.
Later that day, when i had still not received the welcome email, i popped and live chat and was told Ralph would be contacted asking to send the email. When i still had not received it later that night, i submitted a ticket. I went to check it the next day, to find their ticket system changed, and my login didnt work.
I went on livechat, and was told that i would receive details for the ticket system (which i still have not received), i then asked about my server, and was initially told a server had had a hardrive failure, which was why my domain wasnt resolving, and told i would be refunded on a pro-rata basis for downtime. Later on in that chat, when i asked what will happen when my server comes back up, and will i be liable for a refund for lost time, i was told my server was in fact not down, i was just waiting for a welcome email.
Is 2 days a long time to wait for a vps?
Im not very happy with the service i have received so far, and hope writing hear will get Ralph's attention. is there anything else i can do? as the ticket system isnt working, and im based out in the UK, so cant really phone, and livechat dont seem to communicate with each other.
What Happened To SellWHM
Sep 12, 2008I have a VPS with SellWHM and it really rocks (amazing for the price).
Anyhow, I was working on my VPS and had a question. I went to bring up SellWHMPortal.com to submit a ticket, but no response. I then tried SellWHM.com and ditto.
Anyone know what's happening? My VPS is still up running fine. And, I really don't want to lose it.
SellWHM/Ralph C
Oct 7, 2008I am completely now out of my mind,....
I had bought dedi server from SellWHM few months back... server.tvmeribiwi.com and now it has been down for more than 12 hours...
When i check their homepage it says ... the ownership is being transferred ...
I have made all payments, why is my server DOWN!
I have even PMed "host Website" who claimed to have took over SellWHM.
I mean why is my server down, while they want to transfer ownership?
Why should it be down for no reason!
Ralph is not responding ... to PMs or email ....
What the hell is going on ... US financial crisis hitting even dedi server business...

Oct 6, 2008Most of us know the Sellwhm/RalphC problem, and unfortunately i'm on a side note of this. I purchased a dedicated server through RalphC a week ago, and was assured over and over by RalphC there would be no problems. Now I sure think that was a big mistake.
Roughly 4-5 hours ago my server was all of a sudden shutdown, with me on it. I waited about 25 minutes and Emailed RalphC. From there I waited 30 minutes... no reply. Jumped on MSN... not only is he not on-line, he isn't even on my contacts anymore. I jumped on WHT to send him a privmsg, and looked around at some new posts. Which then I found all these SellWhm posts...
I'm not holding anything against RalphC, and i'm sure he has some stress going on. What I would like to get is some suggestions, on what the heck I should do?
Here is the problem:
I bought the server through SellWHM.com/SellWHM.com(RalphC at the time). He said he had a business reseller account with burst.net. I paid RalphC for one of the servers, which it took about 3 days to get. I started to move some files, secured the server etc... went to run cPanel... it wasn't there. I installed cPanel myself, and the license wasn't valid. *sigh*. He contacted Burst.net and it was working about 1 1/2 days.
At this time (being 4-5 hours of downtime) I cannot get a hold of RalphC at all. He failed to give me his contact phone number, and his email and MSN are both going no where.
I contacted Burst.net via their helpdesk and opened up a ticket. Corey answered it and needs the paypal transaction ID, and/or the last 4 digits of the CC. Here is the problem: I paid RalphC, and RalphC paid Burst. So they do not have my payment information.
RalphC gave me his reseller ID number and said if I had any problems to contact Burst directly. Which I told burst in a support ticket that he did give me his ID#, and I gave them all the server information.
At this time Burst.net has yet to reply to my ticket... so I continue to wait. Server down, I paid $90.00... and here I sit.
how to even proceed.
VPS And Php.in Vs Shared
Mar 7, 2009I'd like to install ACP because I have a account on the VPS with which I'd like to try it. The problem is that I already have Zend Optimizer installed (by default) and I've read that the two do not co-exist well together.
1) Is there a way to configure PHP such that ACP is only installed for this single cpanel account? or is the process of uninstalling Zend and then installing ACP a global thing that will have to affect all accounts?
2) Also, if I do go ahead and uninstall Zend, and then install ACP, but have a problem, is there a good way to reverse what I've done if there's a problem?
Clearly I'd backup php.ini, but other than restoring the VPS, is there an easier way to "go back to a restore point" (for lack of a better phrase)?
Shared To VPS ..
Jun 26, 2008I've been on shared hosting for 2 years and I'm experienced in Cpanel/WHM (mails,ftp,database..etc).
My question is that if I sign up for a FULLY Managed VPS hosting , will it be very easy to me getting up everything to work just like It used to be on my shared hosting ?
I'm not looking to have full root access and start modifying the system according to my preferences. I just need everything to be set up smoothly.
The purpose of my move to VPS is because I'm in need to start a social networking website which will be addressing a quite large number of traffic.
I just need to upload the script files,create the database,and setting up some mail accounts.
So with my previous experience in Cpanel,can I go ahead and start my vps hosting easily ? or there are tricks I need to be aware of ?
And finally,please recommend me the best between those hosts :
eurovps , vpslink or wiredtree.
Ip Shared
Jul 30, 2007we have transfer any site to new dedicated server
but
if we digit our main shared ip is possible to view the subdomain of one of the last site trasnfered..?
Shared IP And Other IPs
May 10, 2007When I sign up for a hosting server, I was given 6 IP. One shared IP and a bunch of other IP. Usually, the other IP are series of numbers after the shared IP. If the shared IP is 55.55.55.51, then the other IPs are 55.55.55.52, 55.55.55.53, etc.
curiously I wrote this into test.php
<?
echo file_get_contents[url];
?>
Sure enough, the IP that shows up is the IP of my website.
The thing is the IP that hows up is always the shared IP.
For example, if one of the other IP is
55.55.55.52
and I type 55.55.55.52/test.php in webbrowser, IP chicken will still say that my IP is 55.55.55.51
So, what are the other IPs are for?

Any One Know How To Set Up Shared SSL On 1and1?
Mar 31, 2006Hi Can anyone tell me how to set up shared SSl with that came with my 1and1 package please. I set up the shared SSl for one of my domains but don'd know how to do it so that when a person types in the normal domain name http: it automatically goes to the secure site. I rang technical support and they told me I would have to rename all my links to https://sslrelay.com/mydomain, there must be any easier way surely. My web developer has created all the site and I really don't want to change all the file names.

Nov 26, 2008I have a Joomla website where I embed videos from Youtube and others video sharing sites hosted on a shared server. During the last month I got my account suspended because of high CPU usage.
That's a bit strange to me because the videos aren't hoted on the website. I have also uninstall some components (example JoomlaWatch that provide realtime stats) and things seems to go better untill yesterday when I got another notice from the server admin.
They have offered me an unmanaged VPS for 8/month ($12) or a managed one for around £30/month ($45). These are the features of the unmanaged one:
10GB Disk Space
200GB Bandwidth
256MB Dedicated RAM
512MB Burst RAM
2 IP Addresses Provided
CENTOS 5
LXAdmin Included Free
I'm looking for a new hosting as $45 are too much for my pockets and I'm not able to manage a server. The server must be managed...not sure if a "professional shared" or a VPS. These are my needs:
- Space: 512MB/1GB is enough
- Bandwidth: at least 70GB
- MySQL database (around 25 MB)
- Email
Some details about the site:
- around 1500 UV per day (this can go up to 5000 per day)
- bandwidth around 1.5/2GB per day
- users connected at the same time around 30 (max 100/150)
As stated above my current problem is about CPU and not users. In fact I got the high usage with only 20 users connected at the same time.
Anybody knows a good hosting where my site could work?
VPS As A Step Up From Shared
Aug 15, 2007First I want to say hello and thanks for the great advice I've gotten on this forum. You guys have saved me a ton of time and heartache in regards to hosting accounts.
I was told by my hosting company that a VPS account isn't designed to be an step up from a shared account. I always viewed a VPS account as the intermediary between shared and dedicated. The hosting company basically told me that a VPS server is designed as a testing environment and you can run out of resources pretty quickly in a production environment.
Is that true? Or are they telling stories?
Shared SSL Certificates?
Jan 27, 2005I do web hosting (reseller); how much, in USD per year, do you think is a "reasonable" fee to charge clients for a shared SSL connection ?
The SSL is going to cost me $$ per year and I may have some use for it, but if clients want a shared SSL, instead of buying their own, I need to apportion the costs I incur somehow, and (maybe) make some small profit. I see the shared SSL as more of a service, but clients should pay _some_ $$ if they want to use one.
Any ideas on how much I should charge, please ?
Thanks,
Peter
Moving From Shared To VPS
Oct 11, 2009I am presently running a website at ICDSoft on a shared hosting account.
Here are the specs on the server where my site is hosted
Server has
Quote:
2 Quad-core Xeon processors
8 GB RAM
multi-terabyte RAID 6 disk array.
Now, I would like to know, if I move to VPS, which VPS plan would be the best.
How much should my minimum VPS ram be?
Are there any speed tests you would like me to run on my present server?
W/c Package Should I Take WHB VPS Or HG Shared
Jan 23, 2009i would just like to have your good opinion on something....
Im currently at a loss to what kind of hosting package to choose.
WebHostingBuzz's VPS BRONZE Web Hosting
or
HostGator's ALUMINUM Reseller Hosting Package
i have a bunch of sites and some of them are hosted at WebHostingBuzz. One of them just got suspended. Heres what the email said....
*************************************
we have found your account to consume more than its fair share
of server CPU/Processor, Memory and Disk Bandwidth resources.
This results in sub-par server performance and is a violation of our Acceptable Usage Policy.
Your account appears to be resource intensive by nature and 9 times out of 10, this is down to the software and/or scripts used.
*******************************
(note that the said account only has a PHPBB forum with about 20-30 active members)
They suggested that i move up to a VPS.
So that's why im choosing between the two packages. One is their VPS and the other is a shared hosting.
VPS Faster Than Shared
Mar 9, 2009I know the assumption is that VPS is faster than shared, but my site currently runs on a shared server with a host that does not oversell, and it runs very fast for a WordPress and gallery site.
I'm certain the shared server is at least a dual CPU monster, and it rarely goes above 5% usage. So if I move this site to a VPS it seems logical to me that it might not be as fast.
Shared Ssl Certificates ....
Jun 14, 2009I am trying to add some new features to my hosting business and have a couple of questions. I have cpanel/whm and clientexec. I would like to offer shared ssl to my customers but don't know how to set that up. Also, how do this hosting companies offer free ad credits to yahoo and google? Is that something you talk to yahoo and google about setting up or what?

May 16, 2009I have visited a website ( i dont remember the address or its name) which had some tools to check stuff like the whois of the domain, the location of an ip etc.
Also it had a tool where you have your servers ip, and if the ip had several sites on it (shared hosting enviroment) it would make a list of all the sites with that ip....
where I can find that tool or something like that?
SSL And Shared Hosting
May 3, 2009I am thinking about moving hosts and I have some RapidSSL SSL Certificates and PositiveSSL (Free from Namecheap) SSL Certificates
I was wondering can I get these moved over to the new host, if I could bring the SSL Certificates without having to have either get a re-issue of the SSL Certificate or buy new ssl Certificates.
I still have the CSR, Private Key from WHM/cPanel and I would be moving to another WHM/cPanel shared hosting account
IIS On Shared Package
Jun 15, 2009I currently have a shared Windows hosting package, and my developer has recently requested access to IIS. However, according to the FAQ's of my hosting provider (1&1) this is only possible with a dedicated server - via Remote Desktop.
Is there a basic reason for IIS to be inaccessible on a shared package or is this a limitation of this particular hosting company?
Shared? VPS? Dedicated
Oct 22, 2008I would like to start a site for a gaming community. It will cover a few upcoming mods, so I don't know what to expect at the moment in terms of how much space/bandwidth I need.
The mods support the redirect feature, where if the player does not have the next map, it is automatically downloaded. This is where a portion of the site comes in. I would like to offer the downloadable content (maps/skins/etc.). Maybe looking at multiple users (possibly up to 20) downloading maps around 10-30MB each.
So what would be the best type of host to use in this case? Can I get away with using a cheaper host (shared, VPS)?
Shared, Reseller Or VPS
Aug 4, 2008bext type of server to get for my current requirements please.
I need a server to host a simple company web site and our product which is also a web site.
The company web site will be set up soon but the product is still 5-6 months away from being put onto the market. So at present I need a server to host the web site and also need a place where I can host the web site product as I continue to develop it and upload files to the server.
Now ultimately the web site product will have a number of users (I hope!) will contain content including video presentations and will will have a forum so it's important that users have fast access to such material without having to wait.
I thought I would go for a VPS from a company called VT6 Internet who have had some good reviews on this forum.
My budget is around £70 ($140) per month.
However I'm now considering whether I might be able to save some money and go a for a decent (buy cheaper option) in the mean time while the product continues to be developed.
Such as a shared host or a reseller?
I would be really grateful for any advice from you guys please.
If you were in an early stage situation like mine would you go straight for a VPS or make do with a shared or reseller and upgrade as your company grows?
Shared, VPS Or Dedicated
Nov 11, 2008I have a web site. It's getting 15-20K visitors per day. I am using wordpress with wp-super-cache in this site. My hosting account always suspending due using lot of system resources. I guess i need to more than shared hosting.
What should be my choice?
I am thinking buy a VPS with at least 512MB ram. Is this enough for my web site? Should i buy more ram or a dedicated?
Also, do you have a recommendation for VPS or dedicated. My budget is not large. Is this enough 30/40$ per month for this web site?
Shared SSL What Way To Setup
Jun 18, 2008I am thinking about setting up a Shared SSL and would like to know, what the best way, is out of the 2.
1. Set it up and then give space on the account so it would be [url]
Or
2. Set it up so they use [url]
Pros and Cons
Way 1: If I set it up this way, I will need to setup each FTP account in cPanel manually from what I can see, which maybe a problem in the future.
Way 2: I think I would need 'PHP open_basedir Protection' turned off for this account for it to work.
VPS Or Shared Hosting ...?
Jun 20, 2008I have decided to change my current webhost. Recently I have started seeing a lot of downtime. For a long time I was thinking about moving to a VPS. Unfortunately, I don't have any experience managing one. But I am willing to take any hardship to learn setting up and managing a VPS. The main set back here is that my budget is (very) limited (max $12/month). I have seen some hosts offering VPS for rates that are within the above budget.
Can you plz suggest which is better for me? Shared or VPS?
I own about 10 websites presently, but the number is going to increase as I am planning to take web designing seriously. But none of them are high traffic, infact my current monthly traffic is only 15-20GB.
What I want is a host that provide somewhat good customer support ( support ticket system that gets responded within an hour is fine with me), good uptime and allow me to host multiple domains hassle free.
If Vps Down Go To Shared Package - DNS?
