I was updating apache through easyapache and my server froze. I had to have my server rebooted.
Now I can't load apache. But the lucky thing is, I have litespeedtech and my websites load fine. But apache has definately failed.
I can't switch to apache from litespeed. I use WHM. I was wondering, can I udpate apache through whm with litespeed? Does anyone have experience with this?

View 5 Replies View RelatedBasically I do all my updating now. I have a VPS with...*GASP*...godaddy and their policy is you do all the updating to your server yourself. They will not help you in any way unless you pay their "extra special services team" 80 bucks an hour.
Now, I'm not that much of a server genius, I can find my way around and do certain updates. I'm just tired of doing it and also have a huge fear that I'll screw something up.
Is there a company that will do a full switchover from godaddy to their service, does all the updates and installs programs for a small fee for you? I also need one that is comparable in price. I'm paying 52 bucks a month now.
has anyone successfully updated from bind9.2.x to BIND 9.5.0-P1? Were there any problems regarding settings, zone files, etc etc? Can you explain the process in detail for the update? One of my customers wishing to have this done, is running CentOS, I assume yum would be the best course of actions?

Please be sure to upgrade.
When you are hosting websites/game servers and then updates on your server pops up. What do you do? Restart the server and kick everyone off the server for 10min? Or leave it?
Whats the best course of action?
Lately we have been receiving a lot of complaints from our users who do not wish to update their scripts. I have been telling those users that they have to keep their scripts up to date if they want to avoid having that script exploited or used to send spam or other malicious intentions. The ramifications of a single user on a server not keeping their script up to date affects all of the users on the server.
I am just wondering how other hosting providers handle this. When a client threatens to leave because you don't allow them to run an outdated script, what actions do you take to try and keep the client?
I have a Windows VPS account with a well-known hosting company. According to their knowledgebase, they "apply Microsoft security updates directly from the hardware node. For this reason, they are not able to be applied from within your VPS."
I discovered this after attempting to apply a Service Pack on my VPS, which messed up my VPS. Now that I've learned this the hard way, here's my question: Is this true with other Windows VPS hosting companies too?
While I understand that I'm responsible for what I update on my VPS, I'm frustrated that the hosting company doesn't take more steps to prevent this from happening...
cPanel has released a very important update a short while ago. I don't normally post when updates are released, but this is one that should not be missed. More information can be found here:

and here:
[url](not sure when this will be updated).
Stay safe.
edit: the *second* I posted this, I found out there will be another tomorrow. Keep your eyes on layer1.cpanel.net.
I've been trying to get any reviews on ahosting.biz services here on the forum, but the last thread where the poster was complaining about the limits of emails sent from their reseller accounts failed to find anything. Any updates?
View 10 Replies View RelatedI have been with primaryvps since May and in last two months I was very busy... and then came back from vacation, it was working fine for a few days... indeed, I could access my server as late as last night. But then my server is down today, with empty page at primaryvps.com and there's nothing else.
So I got nervous and came here to check... and I realized that a lot of people had troubles with them, perhaps more than I did, but then are they really going out of business? As a customer I received no warning of any kind, though.
Any certain info on their current status would be appreciated. I wrote them (support and victor's email) but didn't get responses... In the past they replied very fast, so there's something strange going on for sure...
I'm running Plesk 9.2.2 & using the supplied AWStats install. Where will I find the configuration that dictates when AWStats will be updated? It's currently updating at 3.36am daily, & I'd like to set it to hourly. Can't find anything in the root or psaadm crontabs & not sure where else to look.

Does same applies to firewall related software..Use it for individual VPS on single host?
this only shows up in Centos 5, it seems.
You do the good ole "yum update"

Ok..this is one of the times google fails me..I guess because this is a fairly new problem.
If you are lucky:
Visit the rpm repo of your choice..manually download:
python-sqlite*
and
sqlite*
and force a re-install:
rpm -ivh python-sqlite* --force
rpm -ivh sqlite* --force
Sadly..I did find that..and it was tried..and did not work for me.
The fix? Ohhh...you gonna love this:
I completely removed python and everything that depends on it.
Drastic? Oh yeah. But after wasting two days with fixes that did not help...I figured this was the only way. Drastic measures were called for.
It was. It worked. You put everything back..and it is fine.
Oh..I noticed yum.3.2.1is available..and decided to give that a shot as well. It is fine.
Certainly not as much fun as the time I decided to attempt a upgrade of glib2 on a vps..but close.
After obtaining a new allocation from ARIN, how long do you typically wait before your upstreams update their filters to allow the new announcement? Which providers are most proactive? Least?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI believe there is a gap in my understanding of VPS with regards to just how much control you really have over the system. VPS gives you "root access" which typically means top-level access... but in reality, the true super user is a boot-up console user. Few VPS providers that I've investigated offer console access to your VPS while booting.
What, than, can be done about system upgrades or using advanced features like root filesystem encryption? Say, for instance, that my provider offers openSUSE 10.1 and I want 10.2. I would be loath to do such a thing if I can't reboot and watch things as it goes. What if the upgrade failed and you need to drop to a single-user mode to fix it?
Or maybe my real misunderstanding here is that you can't upgrade a system in a VPS if the provider doesn't offer the upgrade?
And what if I want my entire system (other than a boot partition) to be encrypted. This would include an encrypted root and swap. This also requires a password at bootup well before any services (like sshd) start.
Again, maybe the real answer is that I can't do that at all anyway and so it doesn't matter.
Is there a way to receive notifications for Wordpress updates? (core, themes, and plugins).
