Moving A Client From Linux Cpanel To Windows Plesk
Nov 5, 2008
i would like to move few clients from my old linux VPS that runs on Cpanel .. to my new windows VPS tat runs Plesk .. you see there were several attempts by new provider .. they cant guarantee that accounts can be fully migrated even manually they only copied site files to new server .. the client account's still running on linux vps cpanel, they are intact .. clients dont have any php or mysql files they are just plain HTML and Flash files .. i can move site files .. im concerned about mail accounts and emails that already in my clients inbox (they are using IMAP accounts) .. do you guys know any guideline or step by step how to migrate my clients
P.S. please consider me as an uneducated person .. my background is designing not programming or network administration.
I have a customer who would like me to move his site from a linux box to windows. As we are all linux I'm not sure of any major implications this would have.
He wants to move as he is starting some .NET dev and wants to keep it all on the same server.
The linux box has a forum/blog type application (customer written). It was done in PHP and using MySQL.
The windows server is a Windows 2003 server.
As far as I know I'll have to install the entire windows OS, install all SP and updates. I will install IIS, .NET.
The MySQL installation is pretty simple and the PHP will be run as a CGI under IIS.
I am thinking of installing an anti virus/trjoan scanner but as there will be no mail server there I'm guessing it's not necessary.
I'm pretty sure I will need a firewall as there is no iptables equivalent for windoes (is there??). Any suggestions on something cheap / fast / stable and good.
If someobody can see anything I missed here PLEASE let me as it will be most appreciated.
is the 4GB + problem still around with a windows server 32bit ? The box will have exactly 4GB of memory.
I migrate to 12.0.18 Actualización #28, última actualización Dic 11, 2014 02:12 PM.
When I try to Access to the domains in a specific client I´m geting this error:
Internal error: D:Plesk wes.escarmerieradomenech.com is out of webspace MessageD:Plesk wes.escarmerieradomenech.com is out of webspace File Webspace.php Line401 TypePleskFatalException
I have a problem with one of my Plesk Panels for windows (v. 11.5.30 Update #47). One of the clients is getting "Redirect loop" error when tries to login to his panel. The funny thing is that this is only happening to one account. I've tried to change subsriber for his subscription, but there was no result, since the same thing happend when I tried to login with the new subscriber's login.
I've an issue when i tried to create a backup repository by the client control panel, The backup already created but it's not affected on the client disk space !!
It's put in Crogram Files/Paralles/Plesk/Backup/reseller/resellername/clients/domain.com
Now, I have critical disk space usage because the one client has schedule daily backups and it's not affected on his account usage!!
1- I've check for permissions and repair plesk database. 2- I've make repair quota. 3- Updated plesk
I've just migrated server to server but I didn't use the migration manager, I simply backed up each domain's content and restored those backups on the new server.
The issue I have run into is the scheduled tasks at the admin level (Tools & Settings > Scheduled Tasks) work but any schedule task under a domain do not. The scheduled tasks under the domains show as inactive (no green tick) and when I click to enable them, I get the following message
"Information: The scheduled task Google Product Feed Daily Scheduled Task was switched on."
If I then look at the page, even though the above message says it is, the scheduled task is still not enabled. Going into the scheduled task and switching it on there results in the same message, but it doesn't switch on.
How to rebuild all of the scheduled tasks within Plesk?
The last packet successfully received from the server was 60.410.682 milliseconds ago. The last packet sent successfully to the server was 60.410.687 milliseconds ago. is longer than the server configured value of 'wait_timeout'. You should consider either expiring and/or testing connection validity before use in your application, increasing the server configured values for client timeouts, or using the Connector/J connection property 'auto Reconnect= true' to avoid this problem.
I have a server setup and running shared hosting perfectly. I duplicated one of the plans and just set it to DEDICATED IP. This is for users that will be requiring SSL.
I then went into my panel settings and added in all the additional ip's. It even says in the panel listing "6 dedicated ip's available".
Yet, when I try to re-run the task for provisioning it constantly fails with the message:
Unable to create hosting. Ip address does not exist in client's pool ....
The FTP on my VPs running centos 6.6 and plesk 12.0.18 Update #44 has stopped allowing FTP conections via filezilla or dreamweaver. My tech knowledge with server management outside of the gui is minimal but i have done the following. Checked that the firwall is allowing ftp traffic through the GUI in plesk.
restarted xinetd and checked status [root@367549 ~]# service xinetd status xinetd (pid 11707) is running... [root@367549 ~]# lsof -i tcp:21 COMMAND PID USER FD TYPE DEVICE SIZE/OFF NODE NAME xinetd 11707 root 5u IPv6 682472 0t0 TCP *:ftp (LISTEN)
Then tried the following [root@367549 ~]# ftp localhost -bash: ftp: command not found
But i can connect via telnet on port 21
when trying to use +dreamweaver or filezilla i get the following. This may be due to one or more of the following reasons: - The network cable is unplugged or the network is down. Please verify that the network cable is connected and that the network is up. - The FTP server is down. Please verify that you can connect to the FTP server using another FTP program. - The FTP host name is incorrect. Please verify that the host name is correct in the Site definition dialog box. - Accessing the server requires proxy settings that aren't properly set. Please verify that the proxy settings in the Site category of the Preferences dialog box are properly set, and that the Use Proxy option in the Site definition dialog box is selected. - You may need to connect to the server using a different port than the one provided. Please specify the correct port in the box provided.
Error: The data connection could not be established: ETIMEDOUT - Connection attempt timed out Error: Connection timed out after 20 seconds of inactivity Error: Failed to retrieve directory listin.
What to do and why after no change this just stopped working when ive been using ftp on this server previous.. the company that i brought the vps from have no intrest and tell me its unmanaged.
I just took a server at a hosting service where I already have several Plesk servers running. The servers I already have running are equipped with 2 conventional disks in RAID1
This new server is equipped with a 2 x 2 TB and a 128 GB SSD disk. With a setup wizard you can install Plesk which comes with licenses.
This new server has a bit different partition model where /var is mounted on the SSD and there's a /data that's mounted on the 2 TB RAID. This /data will then not be used for Plesk.
I can think of many scenarios to change this, but I don't want to find out in the near future that back-ups aren't working because I'm using a symlink somewhere (just an example). The increased speed of the SSD is of course good for the databases, so maybe it's better not to move everything to that partition.
I'm thinking of creating mount points instead of /var/www , /var/qmail and /var/lib/psa
Copy its content to /data/var/www , /data/var/qmail and /data/var/lib/psa
Then modify /etc/fstab so these will point to the appropriate folder
I think it's more robust and transparent instead of using symlinks.
And what are the folders I chose to move?
Apache didn't want to start due to a permission problem.. I think I solved it by making SELINUX permissive
grep SELINUX= /etc/selinux/config
Code: # SELINUX= can take one of these three values: #SELINUX=enforcing SELINUX=permissive
I'm having a hard time configuring this setting for nginx on a domain, whatever i try i cant get it to accept files as big as I need. Every time i try i get this red message :
Code: Configuration Nginx non valide : nginx: [emerg] "client_max_body_size" directive is duplicate in /var/www/vhosts/system/domain.fr/conf/vhost_nginx.conf:4 nginx: configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf test failed
I followed these instructions: [URL] ....
Strange thing is there was no panel.ini file where the instructions are pointing so i created one, but still, i cant get that directive to work.
Before plesk 12 (with 11.5) i finally got it to work by manually editing some nginx conf file on the server, but i can't find anymore how...
All new domains (sites) only display the Parallels page. Upgraded to the following ...
OS CentOS 6.5 (Final) Plesk version 12.0.18 Update #6, last updated at July 3, 2014 06:56 AM The system is up-to-date; last checked at June 27, 2014 04:43 AM
Pretty sure it is a permissions problem, have tried chown -R domain.com.au domain.com.au and returns invalid user.
Can now FTP, use webmail, preview the site and have uploaded a pretty big site .... the Paraellels site displays it as 0mb disk space used and only displays the default Parallels place holder.
This is what a new domain name is displaying ######################################
Files listed in the file manager ######################################
Files uploaded using Filezilla FTP program ######################################
Default place holder ... can't display any other page. ######################################
Have checked all DNS settings and they match the other domains.
I have completed email set up on my server and have checked that email ports are open, but for some reason outlook keeps returning : "Outlook cannot find the server. Verify the server information is entered correctly in the Account Settings, and that you DNS settings in the Network pane of System Preferences are correct."
The odd thing is that outlook still picks up emails if I receive any, but keeps returning above error every minute.
I have been using Plesk for a while on my server, but this is the first time that I need to set up large files uploading for a client who requires to upload via a form files that are larger than 128MB (but less than 400).The issue I've been seeing is that whenever the user tries to upload a file greater than 128MB I see an error on the proxy_error_log that says:
2015/05/10 21:46:18 [error] 31224#0: *9 client intended to send too large body: 175420278 bytes, client: XX.XX.XX.XX, server: myserver.com , request: "POST /admin/products/1 HTTP/1.1", host: "myserver.com", referrer: "referrer"
I've been googling this issue and everything points to the nginx configuration (PHP parameters have already been set up). I proceeded to change the configuration of /etc/nginx/nginx.conf to include
http { ... client_max_body_size 400M; ... }
HOWEVER (and this is where I'm stuck) after restarting the nginx service, the fille /etc/nginx/plesk.conf.d/vhosts/myserver.com.conf continues to hold the value:
server { ... client_max_body_size 128m; ... }
Modifying this file to change the 128m to 400m does not make a difference.
I migrate from plesk 9.5 to another server with plesk 12.0.18, and then outlook and mail default from iphone don't work, but tunderbird and webmail work well.
In outlook when i put the same configuration than tunderbird and i try to send mail out from my domain said this error:
I'm using Parallels Plesk 12.0 and a mysql-Server.
I'm logged in with a customer's account into his phpmyadmin. Whenever a client connects to his website (which uses the database of his account) I get logged out and receive a "session expired" error. When I log in again I get "there's already a user with your username logged in".
I created a New Client Default Domain by copying plesk's original Default Domain.This template is for clients we move from older versions of plesk up to servers with plesk 12.x. Under resources for that "Service Plan Name"
I have Sites published with Presence Builder set to 0 and.Allow customer to create trial Presence Builder websites. Not checked.When I log in as the client I still see Presence Builder with edit Website.I also confirmed the correct plan was picked for that subscription by picking the new "New Client Default Domain" and under add-on plans I picked "remove"
But when I log in as the "client" to see what they would see I see Presence Builder and Edit Website available.How do I get rid of that selection?I can see a client clicking on it and basically over writing their current website.
I host a number of large sites (20GB+) on my VPS server running Centos6 and Plesk Panel 12. Due to the large sites I don't want to keep multiple backups on the actual server because it would take too much disk space. When I create a backup to the server's repository all is good, but when I click the green arrow to download the backup it takes a long time and then it fails with a timeout error. On some smaller sites it takes a while but eventually downloads the tar.
So my question: Is it possible to access the Server Repository via FTP? How and where would I set this up? Presumably it would be a better way to download these large archive files?
From admin account there is no problem to create databases.I`ve run bootstrap.sh repair successfully but still not working.Plesk 12.0.18 #55 Ubuntu Linux 10.04
The CRON service is running and works correctly, the Scheduled tasks on the administration Plesk Panel (tools & Setting / Scheduled tasks / root user) works ok, but when a customer sets a new scheduled task from her domain panel, don't works.
In plesk9 my customers had the option to send daily usage reports by e-mail. Only certain clients like this option. Using plesk11 I cannot find this option if I log in as a client. Has this feature been removed? And if so, can the administrator enable this option only for 1 or 2 clients?
The Plesk panel indicates that the Spam folder can be retrieved using an email client. We are using Outlook 2013 and can not figure out a way to make this happen. We can see the Spam folder using Webmail, but the contents never shows up in Outlook...
I installed the SiteProBuilder (from the www.site.pro page) in extensions of the Parallels Plesk Panel 11.5.30. I installed from .zip file on administrator account of Plesk Panel. The extension SiteBuilder was shown in all administrated subscriptions. On administrator account the extension works properly but when I log into the Plesk Panel as a client of one subscription then extension doesn't start and message is displayed: "Error: access denied".
