Trouble Moving A Site
Oct 19, 2009
We are in the process of changing web hosting companies and I am having difficulty in moving all the directories. We are a membership based company with over 8,900 members. The original web site (called Site a) has over 26,700 individual directories along with many tutorials in video format. The entire site is approximately 80 GB in size.
When I had the second web hosting company try to move the site via tar they indicated that the tar would abort at about 4 GB every time.
Is there any other way to move this site or get a complete backup of the site. I have no problem moving the MySQL databases.

if our host is experiencing technical problems, or if they're in financial collapse.
Since 5 PM Sat., many sites hosted by powerfulhosting.com of Santa Monica have gone dead, mostly on NS01.POWERFULHOSTING.COM and some on NS1.IOCUS.COM They include:
chandarawestla.com
peggypotter.com
countrysidepet.com
robertpaulgalleries.com
cameraleather.com
goeastern.com
roastyourown.com
and many more. Over the weekend, tech help claimed the problems were assocaited with an "upgrade" to a new server. As the site owners started talking to each other, and the outage grew into the work week, Powerful Hosting stopped responding to inquiries, even from longtime clients. Their phone mailboxes are full and silent.
Now, I'm not an administrator or even a very quick FTPer, but these stores have burned to the ground and there are are livelihoods on the line. Can anyone in this community find any evidence suggesting a geniune technical glitch on their servers? A couple of people in our group think maybe they can't pay a server bill, in which case we all need to bail out immediately.

to move one of my sites from 1-st dedicated server to 2-nd dedicated server.
Of course i have shell access on both servers. As site is huge one (60gb space and 99% of files in one folder) going to tar -czvf this folder and move it.
or may be mput all files.
the only problem that i have ... is, that i need SSH commands advice.
if i type [mput *] i must keep window opened. but as u understand 60gb is can be transferred during ~10-15 hours. that's why need to know, is there any command that i must type (with mput *) and close window. So, don't be online all this time and/or keep shell window opened during this tranfer.

to move a site to another server at another datacentre that have approx 100 GB of media files.
Typically for small sites i am able to use server to server ftp to move files.
However, when moving large site like this, ftp might be disconnected and lost track of which files are not transferred.
How can i transfer/move the files (server to server) and resume if disconnected?

I want to move a Sharepoint site (WSS 3.0) to another server. Now my question is how?
I've only found a way by using frontpage 2003 but I don't want/can't do this. I need another way.
The site name will remain the same and everything, but I don't know how to export everything and import on this new server.

I have a customer who would like me to move his site from a linux box to windows. As we are all linux I'm not sure of any major implications this would have.
He wants to move as he is starting some .NET dev and wants to keep it all on the same server.
The linux box has a forum/blog type application (customer written). It was done in PHP and using MySQL.
The windows server is a Windows 2003 server.
As far as I know I'll have to install the entire windows OS, install all SP and updates. I will install IIS, .NET.
The MySQL installation is pretty simple and the PHP will be run as a CGI under IIS.
I am thinking of installing an anti virus/trjoan scanner but as there will be no mail server there I'm guessing it's not necessary.
I'm pretty sure I will need a firewall as there is no iptables equivalent for windoes (is there??). Any suggestions on something cheap / fast / stable and good.
If someobody can see anything I missed here PLEASE let me as it will be most appreciated.
is the 4GB + problem still around with a windows server 32bit ? The box will have exactly 4GB of memory.

how do you move a site from a reseller account to a VPS if I do not know the site password. I believe the user changed the Cpanel password.

I have what I think is kind of a unique situation with a site move and Google is not turning up an answer that seems to work.
My site is currently in this format:
www.mydomain.com/site/file.html
And I am "moving" it but also switching from html to php, so the same file would be found at:
site.mydomain.com/file.php
I want to redirect users going to the old pages to their equivalent on the new site, however this is a little bit of a problem because this is a normal subdomain - it is the same directory as before but now there are php versions of the html files.
Right now I have all of the http files redirecting to their php equivilents, but I don't believe this is a desirable solution. Also it creates a problem when people go to www.mydomain.com/site (not indicating a specific file; just the subdir root) because I have www.mydomain.com/site/index.html redirecting to www.mydomain.com/site/index.php.
Quite a mess.
My first option is to put the redirects in the htaccess file on the "old" site. But is this a problem because there are over 500 pages on the site? Does it create a heavy server load because any requests force the server to serve a huge htaccess file?
The next alternative seems the most preferable although I'm not sure how to do it. It seems it could use wildcards so that anyone going to *.html gets directed to *.php or something like that. The only problem is that there are a small number of files that were removed completely and do not have php equivilants (about 5 or 6) and would need to redirect to the index.php in the root

I have a client trying to log in via ftp. They cannot log in and get this error.
[14:36:05] Resolving host name "www.domain.com"
[14:36:05] Connecting to "IP ex 1.1.1.1" Port: 21
[14:36:06] No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it.

[14:36:06] Client closed the connection.
I restarted FTP and checked to see if apf was blocking them and neither worked. She is using smartftp and I also had her try filezilla and neither worked.
However I am able to log in fine from my pc using this login info.

Having some trouble using grep and hoped someone might be able to help.
Running the following command to try and scan for an IP address match across a period of time in our access_logs:
grep '04/Feb/2007:21:*:*' /var/www/vhosts/*/statistics/logs/access_log.processed | grep
'216.2*.*.*'
This is returning all kinds of IP address results such as: 58.216.50.2 Can you suggest how I can tweak the grep command to search for the right IP addresses?
I want to scan precisely for IP addresses starting 216.2*.
We've been given the following information about spam, and want to track the source of it
down:
216.2x.x.x - email spam
So any ideas how I can scan these logfiles more precisely for the IP address I need?

I was wondering, if installing ffmpeg-php is worth the trouble for shared hosting accounts or if it is too much of a resource hog. I had a couple of requests for that but I am not used to this extension.

Xcache is shown in my phpinfo, but I think there's problem since php -v gives me following error, I don't have a clue how to fix this. See attached images.
I tried several different configurations in xcache.ini, but all with this same result.
It seems that this error doens't occur always.

my site has received surge in traffic. basically doubled everday for a week.
although this is great. it appears its seriously loading the site slow and timing out now.
what to do ? i doubt submitting ticket will help.
i guess you get what you pay for ?
i think so far, cirtexhosting is not too shabby considering its price. 14 bucks for 1TB bandwith.

I am having trouble setting up webdav on IIS6. I wasted all day on this today.
So far I have set it up to work over the internet with anonymous access.
Now I want to turn on:
1) basic authentication
2) SSL
I try to turn on (1) but:
- when try to access over the internet, it prompts for my login but it doesn't accept the login and keeps reprompting me.
- when I try to access from the local server, it seems to accept the login but gives an error 'the folder you entered does not appear to be valid, please choose another'
I have created a new user who has permission to access both the directory on the server and the virtual directory in IIS. I have turned on the webdav extension. I have tried reinstalling IIS too.

I'm trying another cpanel hosting service in addition to one with which I have a main domain and a bunch of addons. I'm used to being able to create the addon accounts regardless of whether I've already changed the ns for the domains being added yet. In the new service I'm trying, I am unable to to do that, but instead get an error message which appears online in various forum posts:
Quote:
Error from park wrapper: Using nameservers with the following IPs: exampleIP 1,example IP 2 Sorry, the domain is already pointed to an IP address that does not appear to use DNS servers associated with this server. Please transfer the domain to this servers nameservers or have your administrator add one of its nameservers to /etc/ips.remotedns and make the proper A entries on that remote nameserver.
With the hosting service where I can always create the accounts any time, I use a secure login that contains my account ip: [url] I will only do secure logins, and not any unsecure http logins. The other hosting service where I am unable to create the addons does not appear to have that available for my normal account url or ip, at least it doesn't work when I've tried, but after searching I found out that you can get a secure login in another way, so I am able to securely log into my account using [url] but this is not the same as my account's IP or the normal shorter url for my regular unsecure login. I would guess that's the significant difference which allows me to create accounts any time in the first account vs. not at all in the second - that I'm using my account's normal ip for the one, but the longer-than-normal secure urls for the other (?), although I don't fully know how that would work.
There is however, one significant difference in the second account which I do not have in the first, and that is that I have SSH access in the second account. So, I am wondering if there is a simple method for using that SSH access to change a setting in my second account in such a way that I can have the same freedom to create addons there first and then attend to ns changes and so forth later when I'm ready? Especially is there a way to do this only once for the whole account, instead of having to do it for each and every addon? Thanks in advance to those who might really know the score on all this stuff and exactly what the best solution or solutions are.

I'm trying to setup the Clozure Common Lisp implementation for CGI web programming. I've made a hello application and compiled it.
I can type ./index.cgi at the terminal and the properly formatted header and some text are displayed.
When I try to view the index page though the web browser I get an internal server error.
Quote:
Couldn't load lisp heap image from
[Sun May 10 09:31:25 2009] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] Premature end of script headers: index.cgi
I'm wondering if this is a Lisp problem or a problem with the web server/permissions.
I wrote a hello world CGI app in C and ran that through the browser without any problems.
I applied the same permissions from the C app to the Lisp app and still had the same problem.
I *think* this is a Lisp problem, but just felt that I should check with some people who are more familiar with server setups than myself.

Attached is a (badly) drawn diagram of two sites, connected by a vpn.
The site to the left, is network 10.0.0.0/24 which runs a linux server as the router for the network.
The site to the right, is network 10.1.0.0/24 which runs a windows 2003 server as the router for the network.
Now, my problem is, the clients behind the windows 2003 server can ping any machine on the first network because i setup a static route to route all traffic to 10.0.0.0/24 over the vpn interface.
now, my problem is, only the linux server can ping any machine on the windows 2003 network, any client behind the linux server cant seem to route over the interface.
I have the following route on the linux server: .....

Starting point: a working site using a shared IPv4, dedicated IPv6, and SSL. HTTP and HTTPS work, the latter only using SNI of course.
The good news: If I simply allocate an IP resource of 1 to a subscription it is pulled from the pool, assigned to the service node, assigned to the web site, DNS is updated, and the site is automatically changed to using a Dedicated IPv4 and Dedicated IPv6.
The bad news: visitors land on the default web site of the service node, with the default SSL certificate.
Other info: I can't ping the new IP, even though it shows in "ip a l" and /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0:0. [edited]
After the IP assignment, it is still installed, and /etc/httpd/conf/plesk.conf.d/ip_default/domainname.conf shows the new certificate is being used.
However, a second set of VirtualHost entries is created in server.conf for this IP for ports 80 and 443, with NameVirtualHost enabled on the new IP. The port 443 entry uses the default certificate. Apache's setup this default VirtualHost entry will override the web site configuration because Apache is listening on port 443 with the wrong cert.
If I go to "Change webspace settings" and toggle to Shared IPv4, Dedicated IPv6 the site works again via HTTPS, and Dedicated IPv4 and Dedicated IPv6 breaks it again. Setting the SSL cert to None and back again does not work.
Setting the SSL cert to None, changing to a dedicated IP, and enabling SSL results in the server being inexplicably inaccessible...browsers no longer connect to either the default site or the correct site, and I don't see any entries in the vhosts's logs.

I'm on a short assignment to inventory and manage the fixed assets of a small company, and we've just bought a web-based database for this purpose. While I'm pretty good at administering/running local databases, the web part has me stymied. Our company is between IT people, and there's no one on site with any more idea than I have about what's going on!!
Here's what I have so far:
--The company has a website which I'll call "ourwebsite.org" -- which I think, from searching the IP address the website points to, is hosted by HostMySite.com.
--There's also a record in DNS Management with the same name (ourwebsite.org), but pointing to our little server's local IP address.
--I need to find a way to get my database -- which I can access on the network at (server's IP address)/database (ie 0.0.00.0/database) -- online. I tried creating records in DNS Management (for ex., assets.ourwebsite.org) that point to our server's IP (the one that, if I type it in on the network, I can get to the site I'm looking for), but get generic "can't find the page" or "can't connect to the server" errors, even after 72 hours, when trying to access it from off the network.
--If I browse to assets.ourwebsite.org/database on the server itself, I get to the website! But if I go to that page from any other computer, on or off the network, it doesn't work.
--The Server is running Windows Server 2003
So, what are my options? Do I have to talk to the HostMySite.com people to add this page? Shouldn't I just be able to use my server's name (ourcompanyadc.ourcompany.org) and have that route to the server? What's going on here! Is there a simple way to get a tiny local-server-hosted website online outside of the network?

I just transferred a domain from one cpanel box to another.
Now, that site is showing someone else's page. I've seen this happen before, but I cannot remember the fix.
the virtual host in httpd.conf is fine, shows proper IP, username, docroot, etc
Dns zone is fine as well.
The domain is using the server's main IP, so that's not the cause.
Centos 5 / cpanel 11 / apache 1.3 / php 4x

I've been on shared hosting for nigh on 3 years now. My site suddenly started growing rapidly recently and my shared host now has requested that I move onto a VPS or Dedicated as soon as possible (I would stay with them, but they don't have VPS options sadly)
My site is an image host, a dynamic image host too.
About 80% of my visits are from the US so I have decided, even though I am UK, that I need a US VPS.
I need it to be cheap, like $30 (To start with, while I gain funds) and generally reliable.
Would anyone know where such VPSs are? I would like 300MB or more RAM and about 5-10GB of disk space. My main issue right now is quality of customer service, I don't want to end up with a company that either has poor customer service or puts extreme restrictions on activity.

I have two reseller accounts at the moment, where all my domains are spread out at the moment. And I have just purchased a VPS from SolarVPS, and I'm awaiting the account details. Is there a way that I can transfer the sites across easily, such as creating a full backup and then restoring on the new VPS, or would I have do it individually for each website?

It's now coming to the point where I really want to consolidate all of our kit (mainly in the UK) and move to our own AS number, now I already know what routing equipment we're going to use and that is appropriate for the amount of traffic we need to carry, but what I'm stuck with now is which transit providers to use. I don't mind spending a reasonable amount on transit, but not stupid amounts. It also doesn't matter where I can pick these up as the plan we have includes our own links between buildings.
First of all let me say this is going to be a very slow process, so please do not PM me with your offers for transit, I'm not interested.
The plans are to peer at a couple of exchanges, most likely LINX and Xchangepoint, and to pick up around 3/4 transit providers. Because most UK traffic goes via peers, what I'm really looking for are the bigger providers to improve transatlantic routes rather than smaller providers which just make the hop count longer, my shortlist is currently:
Level3
Telia
T-Systems
PCCW
C&W
Interoute
GBLX
Viatel

recently moved from webhosting to VPS less than a month ago.
I got my VPS set up quite easily, however I have been experiencing a lot of downtime.
I have experienced around 60 hours of downtime in the last month itself, and i am quite pissed cause the provider claims 99.9% uptime guarantee.
I want to try out another provider but would not want to get burnt again…
Could you guys recommend any good VPS providers to me?
I would need 512 Ram / 2 IP’s >10GB Disk space and about 250-300GB bandwidth.
But one unique requirement that I have is that I need to run a few irc clients( not ircD servers, eggdrop type bots ) for my services.
Other than that the VPS would be used for a heavy duty forum and high hit website. With several other low hit websites as well.
Services wise I mainly need apache/php and mysql (heavy usage)
