Unable To Establish Connection. License Server Hostnames Could Not Be Resolve
Nov 5, 2008
I got a new server from uk2, has whm but i just couldnt get the server to work, i changed hostname and made nameservers etc but couldnt get it to work i pointed ips to hostnames and everything no response, domain is www.uploadline.com ns1.uploadline.com and ns2.uploadline.com i havent used cpanel for 2 years now and i used to have alot of experience in it before these days i just stick to directadmin and other control panels.
I just need to ask a few questions and i need help too to get my server up and running as im losing alot of time and money here
i remembered when i changed hostname on whm i need to run this through ssh:
/usr/local/cpanel/cpkeyclt
So i did, and this was the result:

For some reason FTPS is no longer working as it used to before plesk upgraded. At this point, I am not sure which Plesk upgrade caused this since I do not FTPS or ftp in general often. its enabled as it was before, even disabled and re-enabled it again. Still gives a "could not establish connection". Restarted the service via command Line with "service xinetd restart". still isnt working...
I'm trying to establish a policy for hosting requirements.
I keep running into this recurring problem where a company hosts their own site or they want to host with a business associate or friend that has some kind of side business.
This often results in: • Drastic responsiveness issues • Half @ss server setup • No back up mechanisms • Non-standard setups
I'm thinking of bumping the price on all my quotes by 20% and offering a 20% discount if recommended hosts are used. Another alternative which I would prefer is just to refuse to work on any other, but I don't think I could get away with that.
My VPS was a clean build 2 weeks ago and so far i have installed cpanel and configured everything and added accounts. I began that one of my scripts that uses gethostbyaddr($ip) was failing to resolve any of the ip's it received. I made another PHP file to test this, with this code:
PHP Code:
<?phpecho file_get_contents[url];?>
Resulting in:
Warning: file_get_contents() [function.file-get-contents]: php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed: Name or service not known
The thing is, the VPS is resolving domains just fine

i use centos based server. yesterday everything was OK. but now, when i connect via SSH, my server can't resolve hosts. wget, ping, or curl don't work. also i use VNC to remote desktop. when try to open a page via firefox, it says server not found.
There is Server US. it's hostname is US.domain.com the ns pointing to it are ns1.domain.com and ns2.domain.com
There is Server UK. it's hostname is UK.domain.com the ns pointing to it are ns3.domain.com and ns4.domain.com
however, the UK.domain.com resolves simply because I added a dns zone on Server US, which points to the IP of UK. If server US goes down, UK.domain.com is unaccessible, so UK VPS is accessible only via IP.
How can I fix this issue and make the second server respond on that UK.domain.com URL without depending on the US server?
I have a established host on a dedicated company1 like hostname1.mydomain.com and I want to get another dedicated server from company2 like hostname2.mydomain.com
Is this possible? Like sharing the same domain with different hostnames? Does whm allows this? And how they negotiate each other?
i am having a problem getting a dedicated server running for Unreal Tournament GOTY. everytime i create a dedicated server i get this error in the console:
Log: AInternetLink Resolve failed: Can't find host master.mplayer.com (WSANO_DATA) ScriptLog: UdpServerUplink: Failed to resolve master server address, aborting.
I have a fresh server running CentOS 6 (final). I am trying to install Plesk 11.5.30 but i am experiencing some problems. When i run the plesk-installer i get this message:
Your host name must resolve to the correct IP address of your server, unless you are using network address translation (NAT).
Please quit Parallels Installer, fix the host name resolution problem, and then try installing again.
You can skip the hostname check and continue the installation, however, in such a case, the installer cannot guarantee successful installation.
I can't seem to find if there is a way to specify what hostname is used for a service on a service node. For instance, if one creates a service node named web01, and makes it a DNS service node, is web01 what will be used when creating NS records in zone files, or is there a way to change that?
The ppademo.com site is offline (and was unlicensed again last week).
our collocation provider don't sell SPLA windows server licenses and I need to setup a dedicated server with Windows Web Edition, so I'm now looking where can I buy the license for this server, can you tell me who can sell me this kind of license?
I have a Microsoft Virtual Server VPS and I was looking at cpanel licensing prices which is cheaper for VPS (~$15/month for VPS, compared to ~45/month for dedicated). However, it doens't say what kind of VPS can be used for this pricing. Does anyone know if it matters for cpanel pepole? Or as long as it is VPS, they are okay with it?
I am wondering, when you are offering MSSQL server in a dedicated server, would you quote your customer a Per Subscriber License? or Per CPU license? It has big big differences. What is the common practice? I have an headache studying the complicated license usage details.
Is there any recommended hosts that offer Dedicated Server with Virtuozzo License. What are the things to look for when choosing a provider for VPS offering. What is the recommended hardware for average VPS hostings.
I remember The Planet used to offer Dedicated Servers with Virtuozzo license a few years back but I couldn't find this information anymore there. Who are the lead players for dedicated servers for VPS currently in the industry?
I need to transfer plesk from current existing server to a new server. I don't need to migrate existing data. I've already installed plesk in a new server. How to retrieve the license key files. I cannot access the existing plesk panel over SSH or HTTP due to an IP blocking issue.
i am thinking to get a server with Brustnet. i do have my own windows 2003 enterprise edition license. i just want to know am i allowed to install my own cd iso with license.
I've been having some DNS problems with one of my domains for quite some time now. The domain does not always resolve - some go days without being able to access the site.
I ran a simple BASH script to show what I mean. I replaced my domain with "mysite.net" and the IP with "xx.xx.xxx.xxx".
# for i in `seq 1 15`; do host mysite.net; done
mysite.net has address xx.xx.xxx.xxx mysite.net mail is handled by 0 mysite.net. Host mysite.net not found: 2(SERVFAIL) mysite.net has address xx.xx.xxx.xxx Host mysite.net not found: 2(SERVFAIL) mysite.net has address xx.xx.xxx.xxx Host mysite.net not found: 2(SERVFAIL) mysite.net has address xx.xx.xxx.xxx Host mysite.net not found: 2(SERVFAIL) mysite.net mail is handled by 0 mysite.net. mysite.net has address xx.xx.xxx.xxx Host mysite.net not found: 2(SERVFAIL) Host mysite.net not found: 2(SERVFAIL) mysite.net has address xx.xx.xxx.xxx Host mysite.net not found: 2(SERVFAIL) mysite.net mail is handled by 0 mysite.net. mysite.net has address xx.xx.xxx.xxx mysite.net mail is handled by 0 mysite.net. mysite.net has address xx.xx.xxx.xxx mysite.net mail is handled by 0 mysite.net. mysite.net has address xx.xx.xxx.xxx mysite.net mail is handled by 0 mysite.net. mysite.net has address xx.xx.xxx.xxx Host mysite.net not found: 2(SERVFAIL) mysite.net has address xx.xx.xxx.xxx mysite.net mail is handled by 0 mysite.net. mysite.net has address xx.xx.xxx.xxx mysite.net mail is handled by 0 mysite.net. mysite.net has address xx.xx.xxx.xxx mysite.net mail is handled by 0 mysite.net. mysite.net has address xx.xx.xxx.xxx mysite.net mail is handled by 0 mysite.net.
Has anyone experienced a similar problem? I have gone over the DNS records countless times and see no problems. The site is hosted on my own dedicated server.
I hope your day is going good. I've been trying to fix a problem I had all week. I receive daily email notification that "example.[url]" does not resolve to any IP. However, when in WHM, it already contains Server Main Ip: 208.53.183.125. I've tried a few solutions from the web, but to no avail:
IMPORTANT: Do not ignore this email. The hostname (example.mydomainname.com) resolves to . It should resolve to 208.53.183.125. Please be sure to correct /etc/hosts as well as the 'A' entry in zone file for the domain.
Some are all of these problems can be caused by /etc/resolv.conf being setup incorrectly. Please check this file if you believe everything else is correct.
You may be able to automaticly correct this problem by using the 'Add an A entry for your hostname' under 'Dns Functions' in your Web Host Manager
1) Within WHM, I have the following:
-Add an A entry for your hostname (I only have one listed) Hostname: example.mydomainname.com Server Main Ip: 208.53.183.125
-Primary/secondary nameserver Primary Nameserver: ns1.mydomainname.com (A entry = 208.53.181.26) Secondary Nameserver: ns2.mydomainname.com (A entry = 208.53.181.27)
-Additional IP my webhost gave me to use: 208.53.181.26 (used in primary name server) 208.53.181.27 (used in secondary name server) 208.53.181.28
-Current DNS Zone listing: example.com (my website URL that is currently working) example.mydomainname.com (hostname I made myself that contains the server main IP) ns1.mydomainname.com (A entry = 208.53.181.26) ns2.mydomainname.com (A entry = 208.53.181.27)
2) My edit "edit /etc/resolv.conf" contains the following: Search localdomain nameserver 66.90.68.25 nameserver 66.90.68.26
Issue: I receive daily email notification that "example.mydomainname.com" does not resolve to any IP. However, when in WHM, it already contains Server Main Ip: 208.53.183.125.
