View 2 Replies View RelatedCommon Managed Colocation
Nov 2, 2009I am writing an article about managed colocation (what it is, what are the benefits, how is it different from other hosting options, etc.).
What are some common questions you get from your customers regarding your managed colocation or managed services?
Do they see the value right away? Why are the hesitant? Is it clear to them which aspect of their server is under the control of the hosting company and which is still their responsibility?
How Common Is Port 8080
Aug 6, 2007I want to have a static server for my website which runs on the same machine as the dynamic server. I have read on the internet that port 8080 is a good alternative port to use.
Is common enough that it will work in all cases like port 80? And that it won't be blocked by firewalls and so on since it's not a service port (port < 1024).

Error: Missing Dependency: glibc-common = 2.3.4-2.25 is needed by package glibc-dummy-centos-4
When I tried to install glibc-common, I got this error:
error: Failed dependencies:

When trying to install these other things, I get more dependency errors. I noticed that glibc-dummy-centos-4-2.3.4-2.25.swsoft.i386 was mentioned. I'm not sure what this is, but it's by SwSoft? Is this something I have to contact my provider about? Thanks.

-Select table data
-Insert table data

-Delete table data
-Create tables

View 14 Replies View RelatedMySQL's Error Code 28: What Are It's Common Causes And Other Pertinent
Nov 22, 2008This is part 1 of a personal tragic-comic narrative starring myself, a simple, unassuming end-user of value-based web hosting services, and the supreme villain of this pathetic tale, the Iago to my Othello, would be a verminous, sub-human parasite collective disguised as a professional web-hosting company in the vicinity of Columbus, Ohio.
Speaking of Shakespeare, it seems to this humble WHT supplicant that the comedy of errors authored by the entities in question, a craven crew of possum-bellied, pigeon-brained menagerie of cubicle-dwelling subhuman troglodytes masquerading as ethical business-persons and capable hosting providers, is so egregious that if a scale of measurement is ever devised for web-hosting incompetence, it should be named after this company, in recognition of their utter incompetence and arbitrary imbecilic buffoonery disguised as reasonable technical support and customer service.
Apparently this company thinks it's more important to use their scale-encrusted rat-tails to cover up their own mistakes instead of giving reasonable responses to customer questions regarding apparent server issues.
Which brings me to my initial question:
MySQL's docs say that Error Code 28 results from lack of disk space or write permissions.
What are the common causes of this? Who has the power to control it from happening, the web host or the end user?( in this arrangement, the host is running an overloaded server and controls all of the configurations and aspects of the server while the user is using secure software with moderate usage of bandwidth and database queries).
I have additional questions in regards to a more general issue regarding failure to write/open to directories as well, but I'll wait for some responses first.
Excellent forum, by the way.
Apache :: Basic Auth User Not Logged In Common Log File
Jul 18, 2013I use Basic Auth to limit access to a web site. This seems to work ok. I noticed though in the logs that the logged in user is not logged:
80.....188 - - [16/Jul/2013:09:56:29 +0200] "GET ..." 200 1844 "...." " ...
I would expect the second - to be replaced by the logged in user. The doc says, the user is logged if the document is protected. I do protect the whole directory using directory match. Without log in I fail to retrieve the document in question.

View 14 Replies View RelatedAmazon EC2 Or Other Cloud Platform?
Dec 28, 2008I have a new comparison shopping site. The challenge I currently have is that I have a dedicated server on Hostgator ($374 per month). But, I am in the middle of changing programmers after initial problems. While we are working through issues, I would like to bring down costs (there is very little traffic on the site right now).
Does a service such as Amazon EC2 make sense? It is not that I am unhappy with Hostgator. I just want to reduce cost while we fix the site (could take several months), and, position the site for easy growth (which is why I am considering Cloud Computing).
Comparison shopping is a large database intensive effort, so I do not think that a simple "shared" service makes sense.
Platform For The Six-Core AMD Opteron
Jun 22, 2009There always seems to be some Quality issues with the Nvidia chipsets, so I was looking at getting some feedback on boards if any of you have been using anything else yet.
Normally I only use Tyan for server builds but the only alternative to Nvidia chipset is the Thunder h2000M (S3992-E).
I'm looking for stability #1, performance #2
I'm looking for something non Nvidia but simular to the "TYAN S4989WG2NR Quad 1207(F)" as far as features.
Reseller Club Platform
Mar 14, 2009Every one talks about WHMCS however I am not found any real online companies using it's full potential so I dont know how it looks or how good it would fit my plans.
I could not find a overview of companies using their software.
So, I am asking about Resellers Club,
I like the way it is set up for domains, hosting etc and looks like a big company
example... "1and1, godaddy, etc".
Are there any applications similar to Resellers Club for client management, domain management, shopping cart etc that does not look like everyone else on the web?
Microsoft Web Platform Installer
Feb 6, 2009I have seen here in the Windows Hosting Forum that some people ask questions about Windows hosting where they would really benefit from a basic understanding of the Microsoft web technology.
Recently on Jan 21, Microsoft made it a trivial process to install all the components needed to "kick the tires" with the "Web Platform Installer"
And I've come across a lot of hosters claiming to provide Windows hosting that could really use some quality time with this stuff!
From the Microsoft web site:
The Web Platform Installer (Web PI) is a simple tool that installs Microsoft's entire Web Platform, including IIS, Visual Web Developer 2008 Express Edition, SQL Server 2008 Express Edition and the .NET Framework. Using the Web Platform Installerâs user interface, you can choose to install either specific products or the entire Microsoft Web Platform onto your computer. The Web PI also helps keep your products up to date by always offering the latest additions to the Web Platform.

Multi Platform Scripts
Apr 15, 2008I would like to ask your opinions on the best way to control server services and scripts on different platforms.
Basically i need to execute some command line scripts on a windows server. The way im doing this is vbscript which is called in asp.
What i really want to do is have a central server on linux which i can host a php script and mysql database on which in turn connects to the windows server to execute the vbscript.
Ive always worked with php and mysql so i dont really want to run everything in asp. If i did run everything in asp im not to sure if it would be clever to run asp scripts with mysql and would then have to go to the microsoft sql 2005 route.
So my question is what would be my best way to run php and mysql on a linux server that can in turn connect to a windows server to run a vbscript or execute through command line and log data to mysql, baring in mind authentication and security.
I do have php and mysql set up on the windows server but after alot of trouble getting it running right im not to keen on running the php scripts local, i really need a central linux server for the scripts.

View 1 Replies View RelatedBuilding A Scalable Webhosting Service Platform
Jun 24, 2009We have a small web+email hosting and data center business in Africa. We've been providing hosting services to our clients using Plesk on Dell-based servers (connected over a Fiberchannel interface to a SAN). Our data center is connected via an STM-4 and multiple STM-1s to 2 different upstream providers.
The problem we're having is (as a result of our own lack of knowledge) that our solution is just not scalable in the current configuration. We essentially buy a Dell server, install Plesk and keep provisioning customer domains (web and mail hosting) on it till capacity runs out (we max out on average at 400 domains per server) and then buy the next Dell machine and repeat.
What we're looking for is advice on building a more scalable and automated solution. Essentially we're looking for a software and hardware solution (blade solution with web and mail software that is able to harness the power / redundancy of multiple blade servers) that enables us to provision thousands of customers at one go (and simply add more blades servers as needed).
Home Based Dev Platform And Green Energy
Jun 11, 2007I have had a bunch of various servers in my garage for years and it's proved to be a lot cheaper than having to fork out for training courses to learn different os's.
Plus since i work from home it's handy to have a setup that has the same operating systems that i work with, mainly hpux, solaris n centos
A couple of years ago i decided to try and get it running off green energy.
From the renewable energy point of view i have 6 big 12v 110ah batteries from a datacenter ups that were being decomissioned, linked to a decent 2kw inverter i managed to pick up very cheap.
Batteries are topped by a couple of solar panels and a small wind turbine (both ebay bargains).
I dont run all the servers at the same time but i can have few running happily.
I was wondering whether anyone here has done anything similar?
I originally started the idea off just to run 12v lighting in the garage but when i got the ups batteries i thought i'd take it a stage further
Multi Location SMTP Server Or Email Platform
Apr 2, 2009for a SMTP server / hints at how it might be done to accomodate the following :
One single email will be sent. If it doesn't get sent on the first try by one server, another server at another location will attempt the connection and will send out the email then.
Is there a prebuilt solution that anyone knows that will help with these things ? If not, do you know of any ways that this might be possible to be done - even if you don't know the exact details of how it should be done - any help in finding out something like this would help .
Note :
Linux / Windows / FreeBSD / Solaris is fine. So whatever OS it is, it's fine by me.
Looking For Backup Solution For Windows XP/Vista Platform Client
May 23, 2008I'd like to ask for opinion what is the best way to backup a client PC in Windows XP/Vista platform.
For example, each PC has a folder inside c:Server
Every 17:00 hours, the PC will FTP all data inside c:Server to backup server.
When it is done, the manager is able to access to his files & do his work remotely online via the server at night in his home. Another reason to have this backup is because they want to secure all the files from any viruses or any accidents in the office during non office hours as the files is important to them. The next morning, he is able to continue his work as normal when files are being merged.
Any kind of such solution available?
