I can't believe the hours of BS I had to go through with Godaddy hosting to get a subdomain to work. Their online "help" is horrible, incorrect, and incomplete.
For people who may have this problem, here's what I had to go through:
You can go into "Domain Management" and "Add a Subdomain" and have it point to a specific directory. Fine. That's all well and good, but that in itself does nothing and their help implies that's all you have to do and you're set, boom you have a subdomain. Not so fast.
You have to go into your "DNS Manager" and add a CNAME record with the same name as your subdomain and have it point to @. So apparently you have to change the DNS first so web browsers recognize the subdomain and get redirected to your host, then the domain management "subdomain rule" kicks in and it knows to go to a certain directory.
The funny part is the customer cervice person knew none of this. He kept insisting I had to add an A record, obviously just reading from a script. And even if I did have to mess with my DNS settings to enable my subdomain why wasn't this in the "help" on your website? Unbelieveable.
my blog is on the index and I am planning to put another site on it.. now I want to move my blog to a subfolder or subdomain.. Can I just move the files without affecting the whole blog?
I have joomla installed on root folder and another joomla installed on subfolder. I want to redirect www to non in subfolder by this code in blog htaccess:
I have a mail server which is courier, postfix, amavisd, using Mysql db and virtual mailboxes which I administer through postfixadmin.
I want to be able to add a set of default folders to all mailboxes created such as Possible Spam and some others.
I have investigated shared folders but this is not what i want, is there a way I can get courier/postfix to create a set of additional sub-folders when it creates a mailbox.
I need to serve domain subfolder from different Apache 2 server.
1. Squid 3 reverse proxy is pointin to 80.241.222.151 for domain [URL] .... 2. Apache 2 server is on 80.241.222.151 with all files in the root folder so all requests are served from here 3. Now im creating new server at 80.241.222.149 with all files from [URL] ... transferred to the root 4. On Squid 3 server [URL] .... is still pointing to 80.241.222.151 5. But now i need to call [URL] .... from 80.241.222.149 in the root.
What is the example to do this? mod_proxy on Apache 2 server at 80.241.222.151?
I need to create a subfolder under my domain name, and assign an ftp user to that folder. I want the user to only have access to that folder, is it possible? can you guys orient me, because I have no idea where to start, my hosting service provider is telling me I can only have one ftp account per domain, maybe I didn't explain correctly to my hosting provider.
Wordpress is becoming more and more integrated with Plesk which makes it quite easy to setup a new domain for someone and install Wordpress so he can start.
Often this Wordpress site has to be developed and a better looking site is already available.
By default Wordpress installs in a subfolder /wordpress (I know you can change it by choosing "custom install"). After a while that website is ready for publishing.
To move that website I will have to move the running site to a subfolder and then move the content of /wordpress to the root. This is not sufficient. I then have to do a search and replace on the /wordpress and wordpress/ and replace it with /
No problem there....
But then I have lost Wordpress from the Plesk interface.....
What's the most elegant way to move a Plesk managed Wordpress site?
I don't mind if it stays in its folder (maybe preferrable?), as long as the user doesn't see that "/wordpress" in its URL.
Can I manage all from one .htaccess file in main root (www) or should I create "esp" directory (and point old subdomain to it - one for every language) and put .htaccess in every directory with redirection ?
I have a Server with Centos7 + Plesk 12 and in the service configuration say that the Bind service is not installed, from command line i have install named services and make a manual configuration the first domain, but when I return to the service page in plesk... the problem is the same, the Bind Service is not installed; then the problem is when i want create a new hosting i need to go to the ssh to make the DNS configuration...

Deleted a domain workspace in Parallels Plesk and now I am getting this error when signing into the panel:Looked at the logs and been trying multiple commands (including the bootstrapper repair etc.)I found the full error from the logs:

After deleting a domain, we got the following error which rendered the panel useless.

When I was with another host, they set it up so one of my subdomains had a static IP address, and I was able to use this for my SSL certificate. My new host (sharkspace) uses CPanel (other host used HELM) but it seems to me like CPanel could do this as well.
Does HELM have some feature that CPanel does not? How do I set this up? They are telling me that they cannot do this for a subdomain, and I cant afford to go buy a wildcard ssl certificate.
They also told me in the past that the only way to redirect a subdomain was using an iframe (when using the DNS Zone Editor was entirely doable) so im not exactly sure their staff has much of a clue going on,
to block all IPs to a subdomain, except one. I am sure there are many ways to do this but I need the most secure. The domain does not need the IPs blocked, just the sub domain.
I am using PayPal's IPN to set up hosting accounts. It works fine if the user is setting up a domain such as name.com, but if they are using a subdomain from the hosting, such as subdomain.hosting.com, it fails to work. Here is the code I am using ...
Hi, i was wondering how i would be able to use a subdomain to "dyndns". By dyndns i mean how some people use no-ip.org or dyndns.org to hide their IP address. It doesnt only hide and "mask" but it's basically like being on a normal website, where the website actually changes for each page you go to. For example pretend i was using no-ip.org.
Pretend i dont have a domain and i host a website through my VPS
Instead of 123.456.78.9, i used no-ip.or and it was now website.no-ip.org. But it not only masks, if someone goes to index.php. It would be website.no-ip.org/index.php and if someone went to chat.php, their address bar would say website.no-ip.org/chat.php.
I am trying to create subdomain for my site [url]but it is not working i tried with another name [url]and it worked however it shows subdomain has been created but dont works. I want the [url]but still it is unable to resolve it
I contacted to the host but i think i will get reply late. anyone knows how to resolve this
I am trying to do is have a redirect so the files get redirected to a subdomain. So domain.com gets pointed to domain.newdomain.com. However, I want to keep the current URLs, so say I got [url], the below code is just redirecting that url to [url]rather than [url]
I have a design client who's main site (eg. site.com) is currently hosted, let's say, at some-other-host.com. He wants to add a blog to his site. I could just set up a subdomain for it and be done with it, but for SEO purposes, I prefer to put his blog on my server which is a different IP.
So is there a way to put his blog, as a subdomain, on my server even though the main site is hosted elsewhere? Is there some magic that can be done in the DNS settings (cpanel/WHM) that can point to the files on my server? Or does he have to simply buy another domain for the blog?
I have a client that we will call "Domain.com" (example for this question).
Domain.com is a huge company that has their own servers, etc. etc.
However, they want me to host one of their subdomains for them...
[url]
Is this possible to host only that one particular subdomain for domain.com or are they going to need their root domain (domain.com) with me before I am able to host this subdomain.
And, if I can host only the subdomain, how do I do this?
Its just one of those things I have never done before in my years of hosting.
I currently have a domain example.com If I create a subdomain e.g. a.example.com and b.example.com can I host these subdomains with 2 different hosting comanys
