Shared File Space For All Web Servers

Mar 3, 2008

Is it normal practice to have shared filespace that multiple web servers can access? Then I just provide my developers access to that filespace (one server, instead of multiple users on multiple servers) to manage files for different sites easily... right? (also meaning multiple servers can serve the same content)

So.. what would be the best way to do this? We're talking Linux systems here by the way. What sort of specs would such a server need?

I *think* it's NAS that I'm trying to get at.. unsure though if that's correct or not!

PHP Unable To Move_uploaded_file From Shared Web Space

May 9, 2007

The error message is:
Warning: move_uploaded_file (../stock/images/1178697404.jpg): failed to open stream: Permission denied in D:webshalesowenmotormart.comhtmlcontrolimage.php on line 67
Warning: move_uploaded_file(): Unable to move 'D:PHPuploadtempphpFDC6.tmp' to '../stock/images/1178697404.jpg' in D:webshalesowenmotormart.comhtmlcontrolimage.php on line 67

The frustration level:
100/100 (I've been working on this for 12 hours now, hence this post)

The problem as I see it:
The windows server receives the post into a temp space to which I don't have permission to access in order to move the file into the image directory.

The request:
Any work-around? The ISP (Easyspace) are "sympathetic” and I'm being really restrained here!

Hardware: Db Servers, Web Servers, File Servers. Cpu, Ram, Disk

Jan 20, 2007

I have a lot of questions here so if you can't answer them all I understand. even pointing me somewhere where I could get the answers would be appreciated; hardware sites focusing on server hardware, forums focusing on such, etc.

we plan to have three different types of servers:

- db server (self explanatory. mysql. for forums, mysql driven sites.)

- file server (lots of files around ~2-10MB, consistant 70mbps right now, but we want more room for upgrades. needs a LOT of storage room.)

- web server (lots of php files, but also static things like plain html, images, etc. also includes all misc services for the setup-- dns, etc.)

could I be given a rundown for which hardware each of the three should have? I don't need specifics, even just knowing that more ram is important here while cpu doesn't matter as much, or that the fastest disks available are a must, etc would all be valuable info for me. despite that, I certainly wouldn't mind specific hypothetical hardware configs.

for the database server I'm assuming the more ram the better. not entirely sure about the cpu? also not positive on disks...

for the fileserver, how much ram would be practical or useful? disk io will be an issue I'm because plenty of people will be pulling files at once so the disk needs to read from multiple places. scsi (and even raptors) are not an option as we need 750GB+ of space on a reasonable budget. more ram will take some load of of the disks, but how much is neccessary / reasonable?

for the web server I'm assuming cpu first, then ram, but it'll likely need less ram than the db server?

I'm more lost on the disks than anything. scsi on the fileserver is not an option under any circumstances due to $/GB. for the db & web server I'm willing to pay for scsi if the performance increase really does warrant the extra money, but I'd like to be convinced before shelling it out. if you have benchmarks geared at server hardware when it comes to disks I'd really appreciate it.

also, what's the best way to network these together when colocated? each one with a dual gigabit ethernet port and then the communications go to and from the router?

Why Are Hdds Such Low Space On Dedicated Servers

Nov 29, 2008

With 1.5TB drives out now and 500GB and 1TB being dirt cheap, I still see that 80-120GB is standard on dedicated servers. If you want a 500Gig you will pay up the ***. Why is this? It's actually EASIER to buy a 500GB drive then a 120GB one nowdays.

I'm guessing it's because they still have tons of the lower space ones on site so it stops them from needing to buy new ones.

File Permissions On Shared Host

Jan 3, 2007

I recently opened a shared hosting account with a new host.

Can someone advise on file/folder permissions I can set which will keep my shared host neighbors out?

While accessing my account via FTP I noticed I could freely view and download files from other users folders - their PHP, HTML, images, you name it!

I would like to be more private with my files which include PHP scripts, images, etc.

I already contacted the help desk with my host and the tech said shared access between accounts is normal (even FTP) and if I restricted permissions then my PHP wouldn't work for Internet users.

I'm not buying it. I should be able to set the permissions such that Internet users can execute the PHP and view images, without my account neighbors using FTP to download my files.

Dreamhost Shared Servers Configuration?

I was wondering what are typical configurations of Dreamhost servers used for their shared hosting. I guess they probably have something like 4x 500GB HDDs just for the few customers they have and who host their music collections on their account ....

GreenSql - Anyone Using This On Shared Hosting Servers?

Apr 16, 2009

Sorry to be always posting these "Anyone use such and such on shared hosting servers?" But it's pretty much the best thing I can think of instead of experimenting and going through all problems myself first. I guess all of us likes to see someone else try something out first and give feedback on it before attempting to implement himself.

I want to try this GreenSql as a way to help prevent user's web apps from being hacked using sql injection. Ive tried suhosin sql protections in the past but they simply don't work, but there is no kind of docs or even simple explanation anywhere about it on hardened-php site so that's probably why.

If anyone here uses this, has used it and knows anything about using this on a shared server please share your experiences. I am going to implement it on a test server no matter what but would be nice to know that this isnt one of those things with insane default rulesets.

It looks real cool and I will be giving it a try myself probably tonight and tomorrow. If anyone is interested I will post my findings.

As the rest of you hosts know we cannot guarantee 100% security or any kind of hack proofness. But in my time I have found out taking some steps to help preventing weak and outdated php apps can help in preventing disgruntled wep-app-hacked clients from making a crusade on the web saying you servers are insecure, crappy and all that. Isn't a sure fire way but I think it helps.

Should Shared Hosting Be Allowed File Storage

Oct 26, 2008

For those host which are not overselling, they have obviously the space for file storage. But should they allow file storage on their shared hosting account, if they aren't overselling, and the files are legal?

Well, this can also be counted as a survey I need

It would be best if you provide a reason if your vote is no.

Servers In Europe W/ Unmetered 100Mbit (SHARED)

Mar 26, 2008

My friend asked me earlier if I knew any places in EU that allow IRC, have Unmetered 100Mbit (SHARED, not Dedicated), and allow torrents. I didn't know so I come to WHT for help.

The host must have:

Unmetered 100Mbit Shared
IRC Allow
Allow Torrents
DDoS Protection (not required, but is a bonus)
Must be in Europe

I'm unsure if asking this is allowed (since the host must allow torrents), if it isn't allowed please lock the thread.

Architecture For Shared Hosting Servers Cluster

Apr 11, 2008

I am planning for an architecture for the cluster of shared hosting servers. I intend to run around 10000 websites initially on Linux as well as Windows servers. I am planning for a load balanced setup and failover cluster with SAN or a similar storage solution where all the data will be stored. I am looking for suggestions on the best possible architecture which can accomodate all the above things. Also I need to know what are the best options available for load balancers and clusters.

File Storage For Multiple Web Servers

Nov 5, 2009

What's the best setup for me to have for a machine which will host web files that other servers have to read and serve to end users on the web?

For example, I have servers Web1 and Web2 serving the same content from Files1.

I assume it's best just to go with RAID 10 and be safe or?

More importantly for me, what's the best way for these systems to communicate? I.e.

what protocol should be used for the web servers to read the files from the file server?

I once used SSHFS for serving the same static files on a couple of machines from one location... but that's presumabely very slow (at the time wasn't a problem).

All systems will be running CentOS Linux.

is there a low end server just designed for receiving and sending large audio and media files?

like CPU should be minimal, as long as it can send and receive large files to and from a main server which has apache + php + mysql running in it...

Load Balancing / File Mirroring & Replication - Microsoft IIS Servers

Jul 30, 2009

Hello, we have a few web servers that run Windows 2003 Server and IIS for web page hosting. We develop custom applications and don't do "web hosting" per se.

What is the best way to do this in a load balanced environment? We have a Cisco load balancer out in front of these servers, but I'm curious about the following:

1) Is there a way to replicate IIS entries instead of having to configure the site on each server?

2) How does everyone handle file replication (hopefully in real time) across all servers?

Web Space Storage Or Get Additional Space From Another Server

Oct 14, 2008

im running out of space on one of my sites but i have more then plenty of data transfer.

Unfortunately my hosting packaged it weird where they provide not enough hd space. Im trying to figure out is there a way where i can use another server or hosting company that can provide space only and use their servers just for space?

i think amazon.com offered this but wasnt sure how exactly this works.
