every now and again Webmin seems to become inaccessible eg. when I go to [url]it just sits there and eventually times out with a "The connection has timed out" error.
But if I use lynx from the server to access [url]it works fine, does any one have any ideas what could be causing this, if I restart the server it then starts working fine again.
The control panel for SolarVPS seems to be down and their homepage also appears to be partially broken. A representative on live-help just told me that there's no ETA at all for a fix and that all customers might have to provide information to identify themselves as they might have lost customer data irretrievably.
I'm somewhat shocked, been a customer for a year now and never had any issues, but this is pretty bad if true.
My client was rather forcibly moved to a VPS by their host (long story, involving inadequate PHP memory allocations).
I've run sites on MediaTemple's VPS's without any issues. This one, via Network Solutions (not my pick) is driving me nuts. It uses Plesk and Virtuozzo, and is, I believe, running Redhat.
I am able to FTP files into httpdocs, but when I try to pull them up via browser, I get 404's. Additionally, the default landing page persists, even though I deleted their index.html.
I can SSH with root, but have thus far not been able to find my way to httpdocs via command line. Updated: scratch that. Found it. Files are there...
I am accessing solely via IP, as I do not want to redirect the domain until the new site is up and running.
Any thoughts on where I need to be looking for a solution? I'm not really a server person, though this is the first time I've encountered so much trouble. I do not foresee NS support being much help, per prior (recent) experience.
I can't check my mails using POP3 and Outlook Express. If I do a 'telnet hostname_address 110', I get the MTA welcome message, however when I try to access with Outlook Express, it takes like 30 secs, then it says it's taking time and asks if I want to wait more or cancel, I click "Wait", then after a few secs it says the waiting time expired. Do you know what may be causing it?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI tried to set up a site with a "dedicated" IP without SSL, and ran into this problem again. The new IPs (v4 or v6) are not reachable, pingable, or trace routable from outside the container, even from its PCS hardware node.This is what I get after adding the address in PPA:
Code:
# cat ifcfg-eth0
DEVICE="eth0"
ONBOOT="yes"
BOOTPROTO=static
[code]....
By contrast, if I add an IP address through PVA, it is pingable. Note the differences, namely that PVA's ifcfg-eth0:0 has "BOOTPROTO=static" and the IPs double quoted. For those testing at home also note that PVA removed the existing IPv6 addresses (that it didn't know about).
Code:
# cat ifcfg-eth0
DEVICE="eth0"
ONBOOT="yes"
BOOTPROTO="static"
GATEWAY="x.x.194.1"
IPV6_DEFAULTGW="aaaa:bbbb:0:4c::1"
[code]....
Could that make a difference? Why I can't seem to get secondary IPs to work?
I have 11.5.30 and no new FTP accounts work. All I get when trying to connect is 530 User cannot log in, home directory inaccessible. I have run the command:
"%plesk_cli%
epair.exe" --reconfigure-ftp-site -webspace-name site.co.uk
removed and added the user again repairing in between. I have manually tried creating the user folder under default/6/localuser/username and setting permissions. I have checked the local windows account and the home directory is fine.
All old accounts create previously work fine. I could at least connect on the master FTP site with the local user folder but then it was read only.
I don't know why, but only one server with Plesk 12 if i create additional ftp accounts not working. i receive error:
530 User cannot log in, home directory inaccessible.
If i use principal FTP account works fine.
I have some error with my server. All my sites are inaccessible.

Webmin ...
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've just bought a VPS with [url], and they only offer cPanel (of which costs extra money per month). so I decided to install Webmin, which I have never used before.
how I set up my DNS servers in Webmin? I'm completely lost here.
with webmin can I use it to add FTP users to say pure ftpd? and does it work with lighttpd? If I'm thinking about it right webmin just allows us to control the service and modify the configuration files right?
View 1 Replies View Relatedwe have problem with webmin and iptables
we must STOP iptables service to work webmin !
also when iptables running seems apache goes down we must STOP iptable service to work apache.
I want to use whmcs with webmin as its a free utility. though i am not getting how to setup a cron job and email piping on the same. I have tried using php -q /var/www/pipe/pipe.php in my scheduled cron jobs in webmin. But it everytime results in an error. Also i have tried using /usr/local/bin/php -q /var/www/whmcs/pipe/pipe.php . But still shows error.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI started using some dedicated server and I have Webmin as control panel. There is also Apache that I turned on and it worked.
But since I didn't find anything to access server via ftp, I searched on net and understood that I need to install some module for it on Webmin.
In list of inactive modules I found Proftpd and install it. And then I made problem: somewhere in Webmin where is administration of users I edited user "ftp" since when logging I went to directory /var/ftp and I wanted to go to /var/www/html.
But when I changed accessing directory from /var/ftp to /var/www/html it didn't work so I again moved to /var/ftp. After that I again couldn't access but noticed in file manager under Webmin that content of /var/www was moved to /var/ftp and previous content of /var/ftp disappeared. I created new directory www in /var and copied in file manager content from /var/ftp but again when access from public address I receive error 403 forbidden. I rebooted system but again same.
Webmin
View 4 Replies View RelatedI recently purchased a VPS and was wondering which control panel I should ask my provider to install. Both are free, but I was wondering which one you guys preferred?
Also, which one uses less system resources (like RAM, etc)?
i ordered a server today from serverbeach,
I have changed my nameservers at the domain registrar but when using the serverbeach DNS tool to use the serverbeach DNS service , its asks me for the IP of my domainname.
How do I find in webmin the IP address of the domain to be entered
I'm planning to operate my own dedicated server and bad news is I'm not much of a technical person. A friend recommends that I can use free Webmin as a front end (control panel) rather than paying for others. Do you think Webmin is suitable for newbie on this front?
View 6 Replies View Relatedmy VPS with Steadcom has been running for about six months now and for the most part I'm very pleased.
I'm not all that skilled at running it yet, still learning.
First, My email was being blocked by some recipients, I am using sendmail. So I had to change the hostname and the hosts file, and the network file to my domain name, instead of the hostname Steadcom gave me. This fixed the email and it seems receipients are okay with the new settings.
However, whenever I restart the VPS, these files and the hostname get reset. How can I make it so these are not changed... is this something I have to bring up with Steadcom or is it a setting I'm not getting quite right?
Second... my webmin seems to have problems. I can log in, but then sometimes I cannot navigate to the areas I need to, as I'll get a page not found error. I have been stopping and restarting webmin, and that sometimes helps, but sometimes not and I have to restart the whole server. Which I really don't want to do just for webmin. I don't really know webmin that well, either, so would love some help on what I can do about this.
Third.. when I have SSH running I often get Brute Force warnings for a bot or someone trying to log in. So I just stop the service all together. But when I restart, it starts up again. How can I keep SSH from starting unless I need it?
if its possible to use usermin and webmin for simple vps hosting ? Or can anyone recommend free or cheap panel for my linux vps.
