Transferring Directories Server To Server
Nov 10, 2008
i'm a victim of the Qoozz fiasco. Leslie refuses to answer my emails and help me, so, i'm creating this thread. How can i transfer my files from the affected Qoozz server, without SSH access, to my new server (with SSH access)? I wish to transfer very large directories ('uploads' folder of vBulletin, for example).
I already tried using PHP to zip the directories, but no matter which limits i use, PHP always ceases to work due to memory limits. I also tried using net2ftp to copy the files and also tried using CuteFTP Server-to-Server transfer,

Recently I changed server providers, so now I'm looking for a way to transfer all the data to my new server. I have a total of 420GBs of files in my secondary HDD that need to be transferred.
The old server is at a 10Mbps line, the new one is at a 100Mbps one. From old server, less than half the pipe is being actively used. So theoretically, I should be able to transfer it all in about a week.
I tried
1) SCP. That was waaay too unreliable. And I couldn't get it to restart from the point left on whenever the transfer stopped (like when the servers were restarted).
2) Transfer using a web script. Way too slow, got to about 35GBs, total would take like 2 months.
Is there any other, reliable way of transferring data from server to server?

I have about 800GB of data to transfer, both servers are using DirectAdmin.
If I am able to transfer at 10mbit, how long would that take for 800GB?
I suppose I need to install rsync on both servers.
How do I preserve directory structure, owner, permissions?
What is the exact command to type?

I have read another recently created thread about their woes but this is a separate issue so I figured it deserved a separate thread.
Here is my problem.
I am transferring my site, osrec.com from my old server to
Hostgator.
The old server is quite primitive and I am using this piece of crap:
Matrix Hosting Appliance Control Panel v2.0-33
I have hardly any control or options.
I am using Joomla 1.5....but my concern is that the MYSQL database will not be compatible.
I am also concerned about downtime...What if they transfer and it isn't compatible, am I then stuck with a site that won't function properly. Is there a way of transferring it to another domain hosted with Hostgator first?
Has anyone transferred a Joomla site over to Hostgator? have you any advice?
I know, a lot of questions and not really structured. Fact is, I have never experienced this before and so this is my first time facing it.
I'd contact Hostgator, but....ya know...their technical support is useless.

transfer an SSL certificate from our current server to our new one. They both run on Apache.
Is it just a case of transferring the SSL license key and cert over? What needs to be added in Apache's httpd.conf file?

Now I cannot continue because different errors occur. Please tell me the correct process to do this.

SHARING DIRECTORY IN THE NETWORK.
I have got server, on which there is Windows XP Professional (I know it is not optimal choice), Apache, PHP, MySQL and so on.
What I want to do is to enable access to the disc on the server so that people can upload and download files and directories from the server. I know it is not a safe thing to share the folder on the network. But I don't have to enable access to the whole disc, I can do it only with one given directory.
I shared it in this way:
Name_of_directory -> RMB (right mouse button) -> Sharing and Security -> Sharing -> Network sharing and security: [X] Share this folder on the network, Share name: [Name_of_directory], [X] Allow network users to change my files.
The other thing was to change name of the server:
My Computer -> RMB -> Properties -> General -> I changed name to "hpserwer".
I enter "Start -> Search" on my laptop (not on remote desktop but on my laptop when I am connected to local network of the company). I choose "Find other elements -> Computers" and write "hpserwer". The result is "no founds". What should I do?

is there a way to change your server so that if you're trying to link to site.com/a/page.html through a link on site.com/b/page.html you can simply put /a/page.html instead of having to put ../a/page.html? I've noticed that some sites don't use the .. and was wondering how I could do the same.

I have come across some stuff on the internet that has a file structure looking like this:
/~root/guests
/~operator/a
What does the ~ stand for? Is it something to do with a linux directory structure?

Which of those directories: usr and var are allowed to rename for a moment and mount their content on a new HD so that SSH and server will not stop work?

So one of my hypervm servers, got a lot of corrupt binaries in the operating system, CentOS.
My datacenter has plugged in an external hard drive so I can backup my files there so the DC can reformat the server.
I know that I will need to copy: /vz and /home and /etc
But.. the one important thing is the hypervm MySQL database! What do I have to backup? /var/lib/mysql ? any other directories?
And how would I restore that MySQL to the new server, when hypervm is installed and the server is formatted?
I will be installing hypervm on the server again when it's done formatting.
I know that hypervm has exploits, so I am going to stop hypervm once I get the server up and running back on its feet. And then switch to VZWave when the production version comes out.

I am working on a website which is planned to have many articles, each with their own directory [url].
I would like the website to be as automated as possible in terms of adding new content and the like.
After a little bit of research, I learned about Apache's ErrorDocument directive, and IIS's equivalent.
What I had in mind was that users would type in the URL they wanted (such as [url], and the server would not be able to find this directory and would try to return a 404.
The file I would tell the server to use for 404 messages, would be a PHP file. It would read what the URL was (to find out what the user wants to look at), convert the data from the URL into the same format as details of articles held in my database, and the script would then check to see if there were any articles available which matched what the user was looking for.
My understanding is that if an article exists, I will be able to extract the article information from the database, and present this as the web page while manually sending a HTTP 200 response. If the article did not exist, a standard 404 page could be offered.
My questions are:Is my understanding of the process here correct?
Is the process and procedure that I want to follow correct? Does it have any flaws?
Other than how to tell the server about the custom ErrorDocument PHP script, is there anything which differs the process between Apache and IIS?
Assuming that the above works for typical users, would it work properly for search engines as well?

There is no directory for the root account on my server. The server admin tells me this:
"It looks like all the files in there were deleted. I suggest you terminate and recreate the site in order to reset all the relevant directories."
Can any one tell me the ssh command that will do this for me?
