VPS - Windows With HELM
Jul 6, 2007I am investigating options with respect to a VPS. I am looking for a provider that is extremely reliable, uses Windows 2003, HELM and offers MS SQL databases as well.

View 1 RepliesI just found there are vps with Plesk and Virtuozzo. Anybody know vps with helm or dotnetpanel support. i am a newbie and i don't know if the technology is possible.

What I want to know is, is it possible to redirect my mail and bypass it from the problem mail server to another email address such as my ISP's?
Can I use the mail forward option in helm, or does mail still go through the mail server?
Can I create a new mx record on the windows server to point mail to the ISP email address or will that still go through the mail server?
Or do I have to create a mx record with my domain registrar?
My domain is with godaddy and it setup with nameservers.
I had installed Helm V4 on my windows server and then encountered a few problems
I had installed the web server, mysql etc an then made a client account, when trying to add a domain its says that the domain can't be installed?
when i click "Email Accounts" section in Helm see "Failed to get Email Accounts",also cant add any new Email Account,
Helm Log:
Cannot create ActiveX component. at Microsoft.VisualBasic.Interaction.CreateObject(String ProgId, String ServerName) at MailEnable.Administration.Mailbox.GetAutoResponderStatus() at WHA.Helm.Providers.MailEnableProvider.MailEnableEngine.GetAccount(String name) at WHA.Helm.Providers.MailEnableProvider.MailEnableEngine.GetAccountList() at MailEnableProvider.ListEmailAccounts(ProviderData CommandData) ......
In Helm, how do I establish a temporary URL for a client to publish with FrontPage before flipping their DNS from their old host to the new one? I'm new to Helm, but I don't see the controls. My reseller support is DOA for the past 6 hours.

We don't need a billing system, as we already have one - so the billing system within Helm would not be used.
I would have been better off leaving Plesk on this vps. Anybody ever done this?
talk about monster *.exe's..howabout SQL server 2005? Only 910MB!
Has anyone installed WordPress successfully from a host using Helm version 3?
I can setup the mysql database and user but I cannot seem to change the permissions for the user and I think this is causing the install problem.
WE are having Helm control panel.
And the login to the control panel We are getting following error.

Tried submitting my ticket since last week and receive no reply. Even their forums are locked. Have to get help from WHT.
When i click on the file manager, it is empty but the files are accessible via FTP and also web. Anybody know what is going on?
I am using Helm control panel
Please guide me how to check tomcat version in helm.

i have a fren who wants to transfer a hosting ..for a site made in php and hosted in helm...windows server...
the site uses mysql datbase but i could see no database in the database setting(of helm)...and says no database created..
in host i could see server.mysql in php database config files
i want to export database...to linux server
i have not used helm much..
where actually is database located and how can it be exported?
to configure helm panel on these points
1) Domain Expire notification
2) Exceed Domain web space notification
One of my clients needs a dedicated server. I already know SoftLayer is really good from personal experience, but he needs both a Managed box and a Backup Solution, neither of which SoftLayer offers. I know they offer a 1Gig lockbox, but it's your responsibility to make sure files are transferred daily.
Basically what he needs is the following
- Server 2003
- As fully managed as possible because I am not on hand 24/7
- A control panel to handle everything. Plesk and Helm work. I'd say Plesk since they now seem to own HELM
- A backup solution at the very least once a week, once a day is better
- 24/7 Technical support with a phone number to call (not just ticket) in case of emergency.
Please let me know any suggests of hosts you use that were good. I have used many hosts in my life but only really liked SoftLayer (lacking the 2 features said) and AxisHost (no live number) so really need some feed back on this.
I was actually curious about this since Windows 2008 version came out.
What is the difference between Windows media services on Windows 2003 and Windows 2008?
Any company rent Windows Server 2003 Web Edition ?
SPLA and External licenses ?
With Micfrosoft need pay 2,000$
I wait your answerds.
With Windows 2003 server, there are comprehensive lists of what you need to do to secure the server before use. For Windows 2008, I wonder is there such a list? Or is it true as what I heard from Microsoft that it is already secured out of the box?
Anyone has any resources on the hardening or preparation of 2008 for server hosting uses?
FTPS is not working after upgrade from plesk 11. On plesk 11 windows and linux worked fine, after upgrade my windows server, it stopped working.

I'm making a reasonably uninformed comparison here. Since Windows Vista is noted to be more resource intensive and slower than Win XP, are we right in assuming that Windows 2008 is slower than Windows 2003?
For instance, with two boxes with an identical hardware setup but the two different server OSes, will the same application like, say MySQL run slower on the Win 2008 machine?
There seem to be strong forum rules in place about the kinds of posts that hosters can make.
But from my perspective it is somehow leaving a large gap in useful information I would like to know that I can't quite put my finger on right now.
So I would like to get responses from Windows hosters in this thread without violating any forum spam guidelines and I sure hope I'm not wasting my time here with this concept but here goes...
So, the topic:
Ultimately, the thing Windows Web Hosters are providing is the delivery of information that has been constructed by developers using program code they have assembled using a large array of mostly .NET technology.
The reason the Hoster is providing Windows hosting is that a sufficiently large enough population of Web Developers have been attracted to some aspect of the Windows technology stack.
And there is certainly lots of innovative and interesting technology that attracts developers to focus on .NET in just the same way that there is also interesting technology in the Linux world.
So here's the problem. It appears as if the Windows hosting companies with the odd exception have almost no interest in Windows and .NET technology.
But if they actually did have such an interest, it is not clear how they would communicate it for discussion here at WHT because of the spam rules and of course trying to communicate anything at all about hosting on the general internet is just swamped by spam. The noise level is just insane!
So I am hoping that such a discussion can take place in this thread by asking some very specific questions:
1. What interesting Microsoft technology have you researched, tested or played with lately?
2. What programs or scripts have you personally developed lately to investigate .NET 3.5 features?
3. What do you think of XBAP delivery from the net and why do you think it hasn't caught on in a larger way since it sure delivers a richer client experience than Flash or even Silverlight.
4. What do you think of Azure and will Microsoft let hosters be part of the cloud anytime soon? Can you think of useful or interesting Azure mashups from a hosting perspective?
5. Have you tried any totally silly and insane things with the .NET runtime inside of SQL Server 2005/2008 that would give your DB guys a heart attack?
6. Have you tried out the Google systems where you give your employees 20% of company time to play around with personal projects like this?
Latest Update 12.0.18 Update 12 appears to have removed PHP 5.4 and PHP 5.5 from my dropdown under hosting settings.
The only PHP that is left is PHP 5.3
Yet, the updates and upgrades page still lists PHP 5.4 and PHP 5.5 as installed.
Also PHP is still working on the virtual websites that were previously enabled with either 5.4 or 5.5, but not able to change using the Plesk Panel.
Given that Parallels has broken the Panel in that latest automatic update I'd hope it can be resolved ASAP.
I can't even find any references in the KB about Plesk 12 on Windows regarding PHP versions
I can even give feedback about the broken patch as every feedback channel requires paid support.
I have faced the following ftp backup error in windows plesk 11.5.30

Prior to using plesk, I had a few sites that had SSL certificates installed, the old fashioned way (manually through IIS). I have now setup those domains in plesk, and I need to somehow make PLESK aware of these SSL certificates.Right now, I setup the domain in plesk, give it a dedicated IP, and allow SSL connections. It chooses the default certificate and my already installed in IIS SSL certificate isnt listed.
Is there any way I can get it listed? I went to the add an SSL area, and it seems that this area is only good for generating new SSL certificates, but mine is good for another 1+ years.The bummer is that for some reason, anytime I make any type of change to the site in plesk, that it seems to overwrite the SSL bindings and changes my manual changes to the correct certificate (through iis) back to the default certificate.
Is there hosting that use windows xp rather than windows server 2003? What is the advantage of using windows server2003 anyway?
Most of the time I just need to run some programs that need huge bandwidth. If I want to host sites, I'll just use xamp.
I think windows xp license is cheaper.
Does someone know what that means? I can sometime choose this option if I want to buy a server.

That key is Windows 2000 for both Win 2k and Win 2k server so if there's anything else that would be GREAT.

View 14 Replies View RelatedWe are looking into to selling Windows VPS aswell as Linux which would you guys prefer to use panel wise:
HyperV
Or
VMWare
how is this pricing possible considering the licensing cost of Windows Server 2003 Ent?
I am not familiar with Microsoft's SPLA program, but I would imagine individual licenses for every single VPS would leave this company with a really small profit margin.
