Server Change Issues
May 28, 2007
I know im new here, but I am in serious need for a solution to my problem.
Where do i start?!
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]
New: [url]
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 (www.midnightclub.ie) 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?

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
Primary Resolver...........................................12.345.67.89
Secondary Resolver.......................................12.345.67.99
Teritary Resolver (optional)............................empty.
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 ?

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.

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?

I currently have a server with CentOS 4x and cPanel with approximatley 100 active sites on.
I would like to change the hostname on this box, is this possible without causing any disruption to services on this machine?
Would I be correct in thinking its as simple as modifying /etc/hosts(Or doing it in cPanel) and then reactivating the cPanel License?

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 currently have a problem here. I want to change my server IP from xxx.xxx.xxx.123 to xxx.xxx.xxx.321
1. I have requested cPanel IP changes to xxx.xxx.xxx.321
2. I am about to make changes for my eth0 to to xxx.xxx.xxx.321
3. How do I manually change cPanel setting (inside WHM) main server IP to xxx.xxx.xxx.321 using SSH command? Which files to edit?
When I change my eth0 to new IP, it won't detect the license anymore telling me "Invalid License"
