i found the service for backup of SMTP:
If your mail server or network goes down, our backup SMTP can receive and store your incoming e-mail for up to 30 days. E-mail and ecommerce orders will keep coming, giving your IT staff time to repair the problem. Our standard service reattempts delivery every 15 minutes until your mail server is back online.
Seems that is good decision if you want to provide quality services for your cusutmers, but i want to know your opinion regarding this service or similar. did you use services like this , and can you share some experience for this?
I have multiple backups stored under server repository (subscriptions --> <domainname> --> website and domains --> backup manager).
The physical files are located at: /var/lib/psa/dumps/clients/904279/domains/<domainname>/
When I click the green arrow to download these files to a local computer (see attached image) I get a new page with title "Download the backup file". On this page I have the option to set a password on the downloaded file, but no matter what I do (password or no password) the file is not downloaded to my local PC. I don't get a pop-up box with the option to save the file. Just nothing happens ...
I have 2 problems:
Firstly I wonder if there is any possibility to limit the number of cores the plesk backup zipping tool uses? This pigz takes up all my CPU. Is there any way I can reduce the amount of cores it uses because all my websites are down every time a backup takes place for around 3 minutes.
Secondly I get the following in my syslog:
1 baby plesk sendmail[20189]: Error during 'check-quota' handler
I don't know what is wrong. I think it's since the upgrade to Plesk 12. I now have 12.0.18 Update #13.
I have a 6GB backup file created with another Plesk Backup Manager, now I trying to upload this backup file to my Plesk Backup Manager but after upload 3% I am getting "413 Request Entity Too Large" error, I tried with disable NGINX but still getting this error.
how can I resolve this error or is their any other way to upload my file on backup manager?
I see that Backup Manager have a file size restriction of 2GB how can I increase this?
I have an Ubuntu 14.04 LTS 64 bit virtual private server with Plesk 12. The server is hired from a hosting provider. The server is used to run the Odoo ERP application (using postgres database).
The Odoo application is running fine and now I want to create a backup of the application using Plesks Backup manager.
I choose configurations and content option in the backup manager but the created backup is only 200kb.
I think the problem is the location where the Odoo application is installed is not included in the backup. I made a tar backup from the server and extracted it on my pc. It seems that the main parts of the Odoo application are in the var, opt, etc and usr directories (not in a domain but under root).
Installing the application in a domain would solve the Plesk backup issue I think but the installation script of Odoo puts Odoo in var, opt, etc and usr directories even if I put the install script in the directory of a created domain. Since the manual Odoo installation is complicated I am very happy to use the script.
My questions are:
1. Is it possible to include the directories var, opt, etc and usr in the Plesk backup and how and where do I do that?
2. Can I restore such a backup without no problem in Plesk?
I current do some rsync backups with a command like so every day
rsync -az -e ssh --stats --delete --exclude "stuff" / user@server:/home/user/
What I want to do is have some incremental backups in there in subdirectories. So, for example, something like this on the remote server
/home/user/something.tuesday
/home/user/something.friday
I thought the --backup --backup-dir Switches were used to store just the files that had changed in seperate directories, am I wrong on that?
I've read everything I could find, including the big rsnapshot scripts, but I'm not able to do what I want, it seems so simple but something's not right, am I wrong that subdirs should have just files that are new or have changed. I tried various things like this, but had no luck
rsync -az -e ssh --stats --delete --backup --backup-dir=/home.Thursday --exclude "stuff" / user@server:/home/user/
I have transfer full backup with cpanel to ftp backup,
But,How transfer full backup from FTP Backup to cPanel?
Whitch software?
my cpanel doesn't get backups. When I force it, it gives me this error:
mount: can't find /backup in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab
mount: can't find /backup in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab
[cpbackup] Backup failed! /bekkaplars is not mounted! at /scripts/cpbackup line 415.
It's a vps. Another interesting thing is, my other 3 vpses run good even /etc/fstab has no line like /backup in there, also.
I would like to weight the benefits and costs of using remote backup and local backup to another hardisk? Let's assume the price is the same.
What's the benefits of using remote backup?
Is it secured to use local backup in another hardisk?
I'm running on linux centos.
What happend if hacker get hold of my server?
Currently, i have 80GB of diskspace. Does it mean i will need at least 80GB of ANOTHER hardisk to backup that?
I am wondering what the advanatges and disadvantages are in using SMTP for my out going server emails.
I have an email marketing system and some other scripts that send email and I don't know which is best.
I want to send some emails from my Win2003 server with IIS6.
I have turned on the SMTP server, but I dont know how to connect to it or set it up. How do I find out the connection details (e.g. smtp.server.com)?
I put a test mail as a txt message in the C:InetpubmailrootPickup folder and it sent OK to external mail address. NowI want to get some applications to use the server. I just need a really simple config, one email account, it doesnt even need to collect emails, just send them out. No authentication needed either.
One more thing: how to limit access to the SMTP server to only my server an no outsiders? I want it to be used by just two applications running on the server.
Everytime I try to send mail from Outlook Express via server.hostdomaincom:465 (SSL) I get an warning about the cert cant be trusted. Though I have server.hostdomaincom's self-signed cert installed through IE as a trusted root, the warning keeps coming up. How do I resolve this?
Also, my ISP has blocked outgoing port 25 connections. Is there any alternate SMPT (non-ssl)?
Another email issue:
1. I am trying to send mail to someone@externaldomain.com
2. The website of externaldomain.com is located on my server under clients reseller account.
3. MX servers of externaldomain.com are located somewhere else.
4. When the SMTP gets mail from me to someone@externaldomain.com, it looks up for "someone" in the local user table without looking at the real MX record.
5. The mail server thinks that it is the final destination and rejects the mail with "I cannot find 'someone' here". In fact, the mail server was supposed to accept the mail, lookup the MX record of externaldomain.com and deliver it to the responsible server where 'someone' really exists. But unfortunately the server is not doing that.
I have smtp set up and add an email account.
I know emailing out works but I don't know if emailing in works and if so, what
is it's name for DNS zone purposes.
Can you help me with command prompts that would tell me:
- verify I have smtp up and running and what it is called so I can add it to
my DNS record
- add an email account
- add an email account that aliases to another email
Till my management for server decides to look into the issue, can someone tell me why my SMTP keep failing and how to troubleshoot it, i have restarted exim and imap and pop3 already but still i keep getting message that SMTP has failed.
Using top doesnt show me much info or whats causing it, load is sitting around 1 though nothing out of the blue though.
Anyone can direct me to some commands maybe to see whats happening?
So, I have to connect to smtp.gmail.com to send the mail, which ends up in the inbox on the same domain. I don't have any mail server running on my server because it is not necessary.
Problem, however, is that when I click on "reply", it replies to the address it was sent TO...
We have a few customers on our server who have membership sites. The sites are mainly geared around email. So they are sending out a ton of email everyday. At present our Cpanel server is processing the mail via exim and sending out to the various recipients.
This part is fine, the problem we are having is with bounced email and deferred email. As soon as Yahoo defer the email, the email queue builds up and the server load goes through the roof.
I know this is an issue with exim, but is there any way to reduce the load?
Alternatively, can anyone suggest a good SMTP server which we can get the users to route the email via.
I have deciated windows 2008 server and from last 2 days there is some thing which is using our smtp server to send spam its like we get thousand of spam emails qued in our outbound que, although our security is really high, such as smtp authtenication (open relay) and other options are already enable and we ran anti virus scan too but nothing found.
I wonder if there is anyone else out there who face such problem and how did you stop?
I am a developer for a few organizations that each have maybe 50-60k email addresses for people who have signed up with them.
Right now they are using Constant Contact.
They are also using my own CMS to manage their websites. I would like to expand my CMS to include email capabilities.
The problem is that these clients are all on shared hosting and the shared hosting company doesn't want me sending out more than 80 or so emails a minute using their SMTP server.
So I was wondering if there was a service out there that would give me access to an SMTP server that I could connect to using phpmailer or a similar program to get the emails out quickly.
My question is - are there any services out there like this and am I approaching this in the right way?
