Leaseweb: 43 Hours Server Down! What Can I Do
I'm not a direct client of Leaseweb, but it's not a secret that my domain is pointing at their servers.

I purchased a shared hosting plan from a reseller and since more than 43 hours my domain is down! My provider (the reseller) said he's waiting for Leaseweb support... according to my informations, in more than 24 hours they just made a reboot of the server!

I'm really bored of waiting with no chance of intervention! My provider says he can't do anything from his side, i can't contact Leaseweb cause i'm not a client... please, help, what can i do?

I need my site back online!

63 Hours And Still Going Downtime With Liquidweb
like to clarify this is not a post to bash liquidweb.

I have been a loyal customer of LW for the past 2 years (almost)

My websites have been down since Thursday 3:00 a.m due to "DDos Attack"

on Friday night, the network engineer told me the "DDos Attack" has stopped and problem should have been resolved. However, no websites were accessible.

On Saturday, I ensure you I have made many phone calls to Liquidweb dedicated server support and try to resolve this issue. (Never once did I raise my voice and they were being very polite.)

I believe the server admins that were helping was at the end of their shifts and every time I try to make a phone call to the person that was assisting me to get an update, liquidweb would tell me that he has gone home. Every time the server admin finishes his shift, the support ticket is not assigned to anyone else that is working until I make a phone call to them stating my problem.

I own quite a few large sites that generate over 3 millions hits per day and every hour of downtime means I will be losing valuable clients and revenue. That is why I am extremely frustrated with the 63 hours downtime as it seems like the results of working hard for the past 2 years is slipping away from me as the clock keeps ticking.

I am sorry, I am just trying to share this with fellow webmasters as I really need a place to express my feeling. (None of my friends will understand online business.)

Again, I am not bashing liquidweb...I must have really bad luck myself.

15 Hours Of Downtime - ManageMyBox
Is Nick Laws here? Someone knows where to call him or managemybox.com?

I have 3 servers with them. One of them is down for almost 16 hours now, and it has been 4 hours without notice. Tech replied saying is a harddrive crash and they will replace it, I have lost a lot of dollars because all important clients on this server are running out.

Now, can someone help me contact Nick? I sent him a message a minutes ago, but his techs are nto replying and one of my clients is really in a bad mood saying he will take legal actions against me.

Anyone can say a word? This is really bad and I dont get even a reply, just a word last night saying a few hours.

This is the ticket:
Dear Felipe,

ssh down too, will have a tech reboot and clear firewall, will take about 15 minutes

Thank you for choosing ManageMyServices, we appreciate your business!

CPanel VPS 24-48 Hours
I am currently running DA on my VPS and have about 15-20 accounts on it. We are upgrading to a dedicated running plesk while we need it, but I have not found a tool or an easy way to transfer DA accounts to plesk without problems. Because of this, I feel it would be easiest to transfer the accounts to a cPanel VPS, then to plesk. I know hosts are not supposed to PM here, but if you can offer me a cPanel VPS sometime within the next week for 24-48 hours for under $5-7, that would be great. This may seem like a little amount of money, but realistically it is a good amount in comparison to the pricing for a whole month of service.

It can be OpenVZ, virtuozzo, or Xen.

MySQL 'freezes' Every Few Hours
Im running MySQL 5.0.32 on a Debian Etch server. I recently moved a couple sites from a Debian Sarge (with MySQL 4.1) server over, and now MySQL has become very unstable.

Every few hours mysql just hangs on a query. All the following queries are queued and never get executed. The only way to get things running again is forcefully killing and restarting the mysql process. After that things work again...for a few hours.

The logs (error and query log) show nothing exceptional. When it hangs and I do a 'show processlist;' I noticed that everytime a SELECT....IN (a,b,c) query is holding up everything. Could the 'IN ()' be the reason for mysql not completing the query and holding up the rest?

Another option might be to temp. go back to MySQL 4.1...but that is going to be a real problem on Debian Etch

Top Usage Over Constant 48/72 Hours
I am wanting to get access to 'top -c' for a period of 48/72 hours.

Now I have found the following

Code:

top -c -b -d 15 > top.txt
What this does is every 15 seconds add reply 'top -c' to top.txt

Now I can make this into a shell script then put it into the background and exit SSH while leaving it running.

Now the question is will this use much usage/server load over the 48/72hrs, it will be checking 4 times every minute.

Review Of Future Hosting - 48 Hours
I thought I should share my feelings on FutureHosting even though we have only been on their server for 48 hours.

Background
---------
I started having my sites hosted back in 1990's and have had about a dozen hosts since then. (Started with Pair.net when they were like maybe 2 of the 3 hosts on the planet, LOL) 90% of the time, I have needed to find a host due to my former host being acquired or some other non-technical reason. So you could say that I tend to stick with a host for as long as possible. I have moved from shared hosting, to reseller hosting, to dedicated hosting, and now to VPS hosting. I started my VPS adventures with PowerVPS.

This was about 3 years ago if I recall. Like most here, I did a great deal of homework, read and lurked. PowerVPS was in my top 5 final list. I selected PowerVPS and was extremely happy to put the headaches of dedicated servers behind me. For two years the VPS was very stable. That changed about one year ago. I was told I was hitting resource max and asked to upgrade. Oddly, my sites' traffic was about 1/2 of what it was in the first two years. ie my VPS should have less resources needed. PowerVPS moved many of its legacy VPS users to new hardware. I don't recall they informed me, though they said they did. They did inform me that they would make a decision on the remaining legacy users in terms of billing promotions -- they never did. Downtime continued. I began to notice that their newer techs did not share the same ability of communication and skills as past/founding techs. Answers were curt and became more and more unhelpful. We have all seen this pattern before where a host starts out so well (2 or 3 guys/gals), and as it grows, they add remote staff that just don't have the same passion of the founders, or language skills. (Disclaimer: English isn't my native, so no excuse for lack of communications in business IMHO).

Thus, I began my search for a new VPS here. FutureHosting was in my top 5 along with KnownHost, SolarVPS, Jaguar. Actually, I rated them 3 or 4 in my final list. I tested all of these hosts' sales responses and went through the shopping process just before clicking 'sign-me up'. (I work in Ecommerce so I like to see that process). SolarVPS answered my questions the best. KnownHost a close second. I am sure there are a few other good VPS companies like ServInt, Lunar and HostNexus, but their prices just don't reflect the marketplace IMHO.

Due to my needs and budget though, I selected FutureHosting as they seem to offer the best balance -- competitiveness and support.

FutureHosting - 48 hours
-------------------
As my data was on PowerVPS with Plesk, selecting another provider with Plesk was important. Actually, I have always been a Plesk fan having used all the CPs (I just wish they would stop trying to offer 1,000 products and spin off a CP-only company like they were.)

FutureHosting (FH) started the migration on Saturday night. Sunday morning I notice that all sites hadn't been moved. I checked my inbox and read the many emails awaiting me. It seemed Plesk was having a hard time using its server migration tool (typical of Plesk that they introduce a feature that doesn't work 100% of the time.) FH informed me they would migrate my VPS (domains, etc) manually.

While this was going on, another tech worked on some requests I had related to SSH, root access, etc.

What I found in the last 48 hours was what I had hoped for... Techs that received my tickets, and replies that stated WHAT they were doing. I felt informed during the entire process. In some cases, CLEAR explanations were given. In some cases, SIMPLE answers were given -- where I couldn't grasp the why. The level of service was what I experienced in my first year with PowerVPS. And now, a really important point -- EVERY tech that worked on my tickets displayed the same level of competence. All too often, I have felt in the past that the level and ability of techs ranged so much. This became more apparent as of late on PowerVPS (are they contracting out support? No idea.) It was a real pleasure to deal with each tech. I think I counted 5 different names! What I REALLY appreciate was that it was obvious that each tech taking over a ticket READ the entire ticket thread. Too often when a tech takes over due to moving it a tier or shift change, I felt like I needed to explain everything from the start. Gah!! I don't have time or patience for that.

Hardware wise, I moved from (PowerVPS) AMD Opteron(tm) Processor 246 to Intel(R) Xeon(R)CPU E5420 @ 2.50GHz (Future Hosting). In the case of PowerVPS, my VPS was on an old legacy machine that a few of us unlucky ones were still on (We were asked to bump up $$ to go to the new machines, I refused.) I don't know which server is better, but thus far my sites feel much more snappy. I also notice that my former VPS used burst RAM approach vs. SLM. (See my other post http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?t=896249). I should also state that perhaps PowerVPS uses this in their new machines. No idea.

Overall, I am paying the same amount for my new VPS, the sites are loading much faster and most importantly, the service has been top rate. I was a little worried at first because I heard such great reviews of Knownhost and SolarVPS (I am sure they are warranted), but based on the past 48-hours, I must say my selection was right for me in many ways. I'm crossing my fingers that this level of service will continue 3, 5 or more years down the road. If they do, I won't hesitate to recommend FutureHosting to the MANY developers I come into contact with. (I have sent a great deal of leads/business to every host I have been at.) I will need to revisit this thread on my anniversary to see if things continue in such a great manner.

FDCServers (24 Hours) VPS Review
To start please take this in mind I have servers colo'd at FDC and have 0 problems, so i'm still all for fdc servers.

Here is my 24 hours review on my new vps server from FDC setup was quick less than 5hours after paying my invoice.

Now down to my problems. Off peak hours last night my VPS server was great 10 / 20mbits solid speed on sending data from the box today I am unable to get over 150kb/sec.

This doesn't help me since the nature of my business I need to transfer files fast between servers. The VPS speeds of 150kb/sec will be no use for my business if anything make our job harder.

These tests were taken using the internal fdc network transferring from the new vps to one of my 1gig fdc colos and other various servers I have on the FDC network.

After contacting fdc support about this speed issue they logged in and checked the speeds they did a download of the speedtest file from the fdc website around 30 - 40mbits. But they didn't test the outgoing from the server.

I received the response that I am sharing bandwidth on the node so speeds could vary so on there 100mbit unmetered vds package they are saying 150kb/sec is acceptable.

So basically after that my last response is if 150kb/sec are the speeds i can expect from a VDS then please cancel my server at the end of the billing period as the VDS will be no use to me.

So now I have been transferred to billing to cancel the vps at the end of the billing period.

So to sum it up, vps setup was fast and the vps runs great but don't expect the speeds you can get from one of there dedicated servers.

Still Waiting :: 72 Hours For DNS To Propagate
It's been a while I'm into web hosting and I know I have to wait up to 72 hours for DNS to propagate.

I've got that weird problem since I changed host, my DNS stays the same as before, even if I migrated since over a week.

I did the ipflush thing and it did not work. It seems like my computer WON'T update the DNS on this single domain.

I've got 2 computers at home and my other computer has updated, but my other won't update.

Gigenet - 17 Hours 50 Minutes Of Unexplainable Downtime
My entire experience with Gigenet has been very bad. I will post a 30 day review once I have completed my first and only billing cycle with them. This topic will be solely focused on the way Gigenet handled my server being down for 17 hours and 50 minutes. I have paid Gigenet for 30 days of service, one billing cycle. My account is set to be terminated on the 7th of June.

I pay Gigenet to actively monitor my server. These services are called "NOC Response from Monitoring" and "Host Ping (ICMP) and TCP Service Monitoring". The extra "service" cost $10/mo.

I realized that my server was down after 7 hours of downtime. I sent in a "critical" support ticket at about 3 AM.

Here is a timeline of my support ticket with Gigenet

Thanks...

* Note: I am not exactly clear why the time stamp and the time mentioned by me in the ticket don't line up.

I see that the date set was for June 7th and today is the 5th, I will need to speak to a Billing representative before I can re-enable this device. The Billing Department will not be in until 10am, I will leave this ticket open and I will speak to them first chance I get.

* Note my server is still down at this point.

Yes, because canceling my service two days earlier makes a lot of sense. I paid Gigenet for 30 days, I should get all 30 days. Maybe I'm misunderstanding something?

Please respond so I can get to bed...

I understand your concern, but your server port was administratively shutdown and I was able to find the cancellation ticket. I need to speak with someone from Billing concerning this issue. This looks to be a mistake on our end, but I don't have all the details in front of me. I will attempt to contact my manager and get this straightened out. All further updates will be posted here.

It was nearly 4:00 AM at this point. I had to be at work by 6:30 AM. My server was still down, so I went to bed.

The next day I received this response:

Hello,

Your server should be back online until the 7th. We're very sorry for the inconvenience. I've confirmed the server's availability via ping from my workstation. Please let us know if you have problems accessing it and we'll take another look.

At this point in time my server was restored. The total downtime was 17 hours and 50 minutes. I monitor my server with a third-party service called "HyperSpin".

Seeking an answer to explain nearly 18 hours of downtime; I sent this response.

What is the reason for the downtime? Is 17 hours and 50 minutes of unexplainable downtime something that I should expect from Gigenet?

Hello,

Unfortunately I' not exactly sure what happened. I think the server may have been prematurely canceled, but I'm not totally certain. The server should be back up and I've put in the necessary ticket to make sure it stays on until the 7th, as you requested. We're very sorry for this inconvenience.

So, the best I can get out of Gigenet is that my server may have been shutdown prematurely. I don't understand why Gigenet can not fully explain nearly 18 hours of downtime. No one seems to know exactly what happened...

As BoxVPS has still no VPS control panel after HyperVM fiasco this is a BIG NO NO! ...

Host Which Would Set Up Server Or VPS Fast (up To 1-2 Hours)
Somebody posted a video in my website which got viral. Many big websites (like gizmodo) embeded it and I've maxed out my 100mbit/s connection. Traffic is increasing and my website started crashing.

I want to move that video to other server ASAP so my website would stop crashing.

Do you know any host which would set up server or VPS fast (up to 1-2 hours)?

Pop Services Fail During Specific Hours Daily
My POP services keep failed daily between 10am-4pm central time. Rather strange.

However, sometimes some people can't access pop services, while others still can.

I thought it was a SpamAssassin issue as it was overloading a little bit due to corrupt files. Fixed that, and problem persists.

CentOS 4.x
cPanel 11.x
SpamAssassin 3.2.x

Site IP Address Change Takes 48 Hours To Work
I changed my sites IP address via cpanel, but now it doesn't show up in a web broswer, I check out cpanel's website for information about this issue, and they posted this:

"It may take up to 48 hours for DNS servers to register the change and the site may not be associated with the new IP address during that time period."

is that true? change the sites IP address will take 48 hours to show up? I figured since it was all local IP stuff, it'll be a instant change and working instantly. since the name servers are all the same, ect.

anyone shed some light. I just wanted to know if I should give it a day to start working? or as of right now, I feel like I need to fix a cpanel error... but if its true, then everything is ok

Email Arrive With -2 Hours Difference From Server Time Config.
On a rhel 5.3 + cpanel server, i have a time problem.

Web apps, as joomla show articles with a -2 hours time difference, or even webmail clients like roundcube are showing a wrong time when an email arrives. It seems this apps are not picking up the server time.

Both things (joomla and webmail) should use the configured server time.

I know Joomla can be fixed using the time zone option, and webmail too.. but in a server with over 300 websites, there are many joomlas installations and even more mailboxes...

/etc/sysconfig/clock have the right time zone.

Cpanel Or Rsync?
I am using BQbackup to auto backup my CPanel VPS and was wondering whether it is best to use CPanel's own backup service which automatically backs-up the vps daily or should I use the rsync script that bqbackup provides?

Which is easier to restore and more reliable?

RSYNC Tutorials?
Looking for an RSYNC tutorial, something that focuses on backing http data, exporting the databases then transferring offsite to a receiving rsync server once a week.

Something that's understandable and logical would be great, happy to work through over the next week and continue more in depth with it.

Rsync Instructions
I have been trying to setup rsync on my server and following these instructions

http://www.bqbackup.com/setup.html

The problem is I keep getting errors.

On this step,

ssh-keygen -t rsa -N

I edited it and did ssh-keygen -t rsa --N becauseI got an error saying it need the '--' before the N.

So after getting through that part, I got these questions asked

Enter passphrase (empty for no passphrase):
Enter same passphrase again:
Your identification has been saved in /root/.ssh/id_rsa.
Your public key has been saved in /root/.ssh/id_rsa.pub.
The key fingerprint is:

I left the passphrase empty, and then when it asked where to save to, I just typed in 'rsa'. Then it gave me some fingerprint.

Then I get to the step,

# scp ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub yourusername@yourusername.bqbackup.com:keys/server1
# ssh yourusername@yourusername.bqbackup.com mergekeys

But I get errors saying

-bash: cat~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub: No such file or directory

I dont get what I'm doing wrong. If somebody doesnt mind, can you please re-write the steps on getting this working, or maybe tell me where I am going wrong if the tutorial is correct?

Rsync And Cron
I have a bit of a strange problem, I have an rsync command setup in the servers crontab and from the cron log it show it ran the command but the files don't copy to the backup server. If I take the rsync syntax and run it manually all the files copy across with no errors, but I can't figure out why the cronjob doesn't work properly.

Rsync And Passphrase
I'm trying to configure rsync to backup my vps data to an rsync backup provider.

The problem that I am having is that each time I try to run rsync it prompts for the passphrase.

I did some reading and it seems (and maybe this is not correct), that in order to do unattended rsync (e.g. using cron), that you need to use a key that doesn't have a passphrase generated.

If this is the case, is it true that it's not a good idea to use a key that doesn't have a passphrase?

Rsync Setup
I am in the process of setting up a cronjob so I can run rsync automatically every day.
But I want to know is it ok to exclude the following folders?

/home/.cpcpan/
/home/cpeasyapache/
/home/src/ <!--- This folder I made to put files in before I install
/home/MySQL-install/
/home/.cpan/

As from what I understand cPanel/WHM makes these folders, and there no user data in these folders

How To Backup To Your PC Using Rsync
I use bqbackup.com in addition to ServInt's backup. The ServInt backup is inaccessible to me and can be restored only by their NoC.

Is there a way for me to download the backup files from bqbackup.com to my PC? I am using Win XP Pro. I backup the entire VPS, but I want to be downloading only the changes made each day after the initial download to my PC.

Rsync Recovery
I am trying to recover some backups on the server by rsync the home dir from BQbackup to my server. I deleted 1 file to see whether it actually works. I executing this command on the server:

rsync -avz -e ssh username@username.bqbackup.com:path.to.home.dir /home

I saw that it downloaded the file I deleted, however after checking on FTP if the file was recovered it actually wasn't. Is there something wrong in the command I used as it seems that it is not recovering any files.

Rsync / Backup
I am setting up a mirror server to kick on in the event my main server fails and I need some help with syncing the two.

It is my understanding I can use rsync to mirror the two. But, will that cover everything (ie. database, mail, etc) or only files?

Setting Up Rsync
im trying to setup rsync to mirror my FreeBSD box to my CentOS box.

I have rsync moving everything in /etc/, /usr/, /home/. The rsync daemon is hard to get running on CentOS (need to make startup scripts and all) so I was wondering if I can just make a user on the centOS box for rsync:rsync and transfer it as root fromt he freeBSD box to the centOS box using ssh keys. Can I do this?

Someone said this won't be possible because rsync:rsync will not be able to read the files owned by root:wheel. Is this true?
