is it possible to specify the DOCUMENT_ROOT of a domain when parking through cPanel? All parked domains by default point to "/public_html" directory. But I want them to point to "/public_html/myfolder".
View 3 Repliesjust purchased a reseller hosting to provide a value added service for my seo clients .
I requested my domain registrar to setup my own nameserver i.e, the site i have registered for reseller web hosting nameserver, lets say it as ns1.myresellersite.com, ns2.myresellersite.com
I got a confirmation from domain registrar support that its been setup in my account. I have checked using my reseller site nameserver for a test site and the site is working fine and also shows my nameserver in whois details.
now my problem is i wanted to host a site so that new clients can go to my web hosting site i.e; www.myresellersite.com and can purchase my hosting plans through checkout.
I tried to park domain in my cpanel of reseller hosting but it says
"Error from park wrapper: You cannot park your main domain! "

How to add an external third level domain to cPanel?
For example, my main domain at cPanel is one.com, so I can easily add subdomains like second.one.com, third.one.com etc.
But what I need is to point first.two.com to my hosting.
I'm a customer, not the server administrator.
A two.com owner has already configured my server's IP in the two.com zone file for that subdomain.
But how to configure that external 3rd level domain in my cPanel?
We have a lot of unused domains that we'd like to setup domain parking for.
To keep it simple, we'd like to just change the namesevers to ns1.domainparking.com and ns2.domainparking.com (not real nameservers!) and the domains would then automatically show a simple web page.
We use cpanel servers and are wondering how easy this is to do? I've seem mention of wildcard dns? Is that the answer?
i have about 8 different domains i'd like to point to a nameserver (ns1./ns2.mydomain.com) on Win2k3 server, but i can't get them resolved through my nameserver without creating a manual forward lookup entry for each *parked* domain separatly..
Does anyone know how to resolve "parked" domains automatically on Win2k3 DNS??
I just can't find any answer for this, everything i've found required manual creation of lookup entries..
anyone?

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have got a VPS with basic LAMP installed.
I want to park my domains, and create subdomains etc.
I don't have any control panel, because I don't know how to install it.
My VPS provider provides me a free (public? they use it for all of the VPS they host) name servers, but I don't know how to use them
Does anyone have any links to tutorials, or anyone could explain me how to do it?
There is some BIND9, but I don't know how to configure it.
Lets say my site is stored in /var/www/page1 so is it posible to park domain to display content in that folder?
Also I heard about some A records and CNAME, is it better solution? I know that you have to create A record pointing to IP address, but what to do next?
I dont have a lot of money to pay my provider (they charge quite a lot for servers configuration, because its unmanaged services)
Maybe any trusted person can configure my VPS? (ftp to create users, dns, or explanation how to use A records, secure php; GD). But I cant pay much, only $10 - $15 paypal
Sorry if this is off-topic but im registering a domain with godaddy
is it possible to register even if i dont have hosting yet?
It says:
"One or more of the nameservers you entered are either blank or incorrect. Please reenter your nameservers below. OR Park my names at GoDaddy"
What does it mean to park my names at godaddy?
I have 65 parked domains that are reasonably high traffic (26000 hits per day).
I'm looking to run my own VPS server to manage these domains.
I would like to have all the domains nameserver records pointing to my VPS and redirect traffic from different Countries to different parking companies based on a php script.
Can anyone reccomend what sort of VPS setup I would need as regards to RAM,bandwidth etc. And a good hosting company?
I have 2 domains ie. red.com blue.com. They are both on seperate servers. I want red.com to be a subdomain for blue.com. I went ahead and created an A host for red.blue.com, I then created a virtualhost and everything is working, I can pull up red.blue.com and it pulls up the same data if I were to go to red.com.
Here is my issue. I want to have red.com pull up red.blue.com by default so blue.com gets credit for traffic, I am moving red.com and moving it all into blue.com.
Hopefully this makes sense. Also, I want to make sure nothing breaks my current search engine results.
I have to park 200+ domains for a client. I have full root access and normally I would go to:
WHM >> Main >> DNS Functions >> Park a Domain
However, manually adding every domain 1 by 1 will take a long time.
Is there a way in WHM or in Root to bulk park all the 200+ domains? Or is there a script?
how to setup domain parking Name Servers so that anyone who have their domain DNS as
NS1.MYDOMAIN.COM
NS2.MYDOMAIN.COM
can park their website and the same page pulls up which is on MYDOMAIN.COM without any additional task required on my part.
I found some instructions to do this on Debian but Im not sure how I can implement that on MS DNS.
has anyone on SP ever done something like this?
I want to park a subdomain on a domain like below.
subdomain.aaaaa.com parked on xxxxx.com
if my visitor opens subdomain.aaaaa.com he will actually see xxxxx.com without know that they are seeing xxxxx.com
I had done this before using cname settings few years ago through cpanel but i dont remember that anymore.
I am moving content from old.domain to new.domain
However I am at the same time retaining the old.domain to keep the older links working
I want that the old.domain/link redirect to new.domain/link
Please advice what would be best to do for the old.domain -
1) Domain forwarding
2) Domain parking
or Both the above
(The other thing is that I would like to do 301 redirect - would this happen automatically by activating the above options - or something else has to be done)
i've entered the appropriate name servers
i bought the domain on name.com
how long does it take ? when i enter the domain name i registered, it just takes me to parking.php.....
i've contacted name.com support, but still no response.
I started up a brand new site just over a week ago and set the DNS settings to point the domain to my site. It's been that way ever since. Now I try to login today to update my site and see that every url with my domain goes back to the GoDaddy parking page. Is this more a problem with my host, or GoDaddy?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI've just had a server deployed for one of my private sites which uses "DOCUMENT_ROOT".
At the moment the server thinks the root is "/usr/local/apache/htdocs" instead of "/home/usersaccount/public_html" how can I change this so every account setup points to the correct document_root?
Running the latest cPanel build from the stable tree.
i keep on getting parking.php on and off on my site.
i use www.name.com as registrar
and cirtexhosting.com for host.
who is causing this ?
I have a domain which I would like to be used for Displaying ads. I want it similar to those mis-spelled domains which have a number of ads, in them and generate revenue.
Where can I find such hosts who will host the site-page for me and give me the proceeds from the web-page advertising.
Will the nameservers work if the nameservers are pointed to a parking page?
For example:
I need to change my nameservers to ns1.mywebhost.com and ns2.mywebhost.com
(nameservers are made up)
These nameservers are from my web hosting service provider. When I visit the nameservers, it shows up a parking page from a domain parking service (let's say NameDrive parking page)
Will the nameservers function correctly and will my websites work? I have this question because usually the nameservers that I use, they always point to a CP page or something like that rather than a parking page.
I found that the domain name add-on I had before in my cPanel account is missing, so I tried to add-on a domain name back, it says:
Error from domain wrapper: Domain already exists, it was not added.: the.domainaddon.com
The question is how do I clear them all off related to this domain?
I tried to edit /etc/userdomains, /etc/trueuserdomains and found nothing
httpd.conf only shows the subdomain and nothing else.
I editted /var/cpanel/users/{username} and remove the last line XDNS1=domainaddon.com
After spending 1 hour wondering why all domains suddenly stopped working and the hosting server was showing no signs of fail.
A simple dns service restart on my secondary dns server fixed this.
Is there any way to auto restart the dns service upon failure on the cpanel dns only build?
Also why would the secondary dns server failing, cause the domain to stop working. The primary dns/hosting server was fine.
I have just purchased a VPS with WHM and CPANEL.
My old VPS used LXADMIN and HYPERVM.
I'm trying to change over the DNS from the old to the new, so all i did was change the i.p's.
Now i go into WHM and type my DNS servers into the setup/config page. Having already assigned each dns name an i.p im just waiting for the Assign an A address to this namserver button to show my new i.p address.. At the minute it says my old one.
Is this the correct way, i know it can take a while to proporgate, is this the same with it showing the new IP?
anyone wants to check:
playcontrol.co.uk
ns1.playcontrol.co.uk
ns2.playcontrol.co.uk

You don't have permission to access / on this server. Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
I confirmed permissions are right and htaccess nor index.html are the cause (I renamed them with .bak and tried fresh empty ones, still got 403)

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?
I just got setup with a dedicated server last night.. my first time .. im used to cpanel/whm on reseller accounts so paying for a dedicated is new to me..
1. I was given 3 ip address, galaxy, subnet and usable ip, what is the difference and under what circumstances do you use them and what one do you use?
2. I was told to setup my ips in my root, i am in there, do i just add them under IP FUNCTIONS one at time?
3. I need my DNS settings for namecheap to direct my domain over to the server, so i was told to setup my domain in cpanel in the root first and that will generate my dns address, can anyone explain the steps involved in that, what to click on? thanks
