I have a server in USA which I have leased to a customer. The customer is running an application in the server and for that he needs the timezone to be set IST in the server. If he does the same, then will it affect the working of the server. What can be the ill-effects of the same. The customer is running Windows 2003 server.
I am having an issue where it appears an incorrect time zone may be on my account. I am in Mountain Daylight Time and it appears that it's putting me as being in Eastern Daylight Time.
I was told that you can put a line such as:SetEnv TZ America/Denver in your htaccess.txt file.
I wasn't sure where to put it so I put it at the end of the hdaccess.txt file.
The issue is it appears it still did not fix it. Is there another way to set the time zone or did I do something incorrectly?
I have a linux server running websites without any control panels. The problem is that the scripts run by cron daemons are showing up a wrong time and time zone on emails.
This happens when they are run as automated scripts by cron daemon. Recently I have changed the time from EST to CST. The command date and hwclock --show gives the correct CST, even the scripts run from the shell showsup the correct CST time.
I am using Servint and I am looking for another provider with similar reputation/reliability. I have heard many good things about Zone.net on this forum, but they don't have any reviews older than a few months. Have they been around long, if so, why no early posts?
I have a quick question about some DNS zones I'm trying to set up for a customer. I figured I would try asking the community before bugging our top-level admins (they have enough to do already, and I'd rather learn this myself).
We have a customer for whom we are managing their DNS. The site is actually hosted elsewhere, but the DNS originates on our server.
They have another site that is hosted with us, and they would like to set up a subdomain redirect from the remotely-hosted site to the site hosted on our hardware. So, the situation looks something like this:
example.com : hosted elsewhere (primary IP not ours), DNS with us FooSite.example.com : redirect this to www.FooSite.com
I could edit httpd.conf, but it would be easiest (for firewall reasons at the moment) if I could enter in the proper zones via WHM zone editor. I'll be able to see the results either way. I tried setting up the 'A' and 'CNAME' records, and I got as far as directing the 'A' records for the subdomain to the local IP, but I'm not sure how to finish it off (assuming I'm going down the right path). My own knowledge level in this regard is somewhere between novice and intermediate (which is why I have partners and admins ).
Many gurus and seasoned IM'ers alike have said that you actually don't need any technical knowhow to set up your business. But no sooner have you started than you realize that it's not the case and you have to get up to speed very quickly.
Just a couple of questions here, if I may:
1. What advice would you give to someone who has just purchased a new "unlimited" domain and knows diddly squat about all these technical issues?
2. I was reading what someone else said about add-on domains vs using Apache to redirect the add-on domains.
- what is the best way to actually set up your site so that you can have 1 main domain and then a bunch of others?
-should you rather use redirects (whatever that means)?
-What is Apache?
3. What is WHM?
Your collective help would be invaluable....
I just want to be able to set the thing up correctly....
I really had a hard time in setting red5 on my VPS in /usr/local/red directory, I have done all the installation steps but still the port tester does not show success, I am using centos5 with cpanel installed, i have the installation steps from red5 forum but pretty much unsure what needs to be done after installation
1. I have only iptables installed and even if I remove iptables the port tester does not work properely
I've been using dedicated hosting in places like the planet and rackspace for a long time now, but we're about to purchase a rack in a local data facility. This is my first time setting up a rack environment, so I have a bunch of questions.
They'll be giving me an ethernet drop into the cabinet. I have to take it from there. I'm thinking I needed a router/firewall. Am I right? Can those be a single device? Should they be? Which models would you recommend? (We're still a small operation, we don't usually push more than 1Mbps bandwidth).
I can't get access to a certain site. I always get the page with:
network time out - server at *** takes to long to respons. More people have noticed this and apparently it only happens to people with certain specific providers. And not all the time. Some times they DO get access eventy to they belong to the same ISP. So I guess an ISP isn't blocking access to it otherwise it would be permenantly/The site administrator insists that certain ISP's are blocking his site. He's hosting it on his own server. The domain belongs is registered at namecheap.com.
If an ISP is blocking this site (if that's possible?), that would lead to that 'network timeout' page wouldn't it?
What is the most likely reason for getting a timeout page anyway?
I have a dedicated server specs: AMD 3500+ 64 Bit CPU, 1 GB Ram, 160 GB Sata Drive. For 1 month, CPU load average reaches 40-50 value. This happens about 5-6 times in a day. When I stop httpd service for 30 seconds everything goes normal. I think this is not a DoS attack because it comes systematic, I dont believe no one makes this regularly except bots.
Maybe its a system service or a cronjob but it stops when I turn off httpd service? How can I be sure about what's making this regularly load?
I also did set up a script which mail me when load average of system goes crazy and restart httpd service. But instant restart is not working to stop load increase.
The server is going down from time to time, every 12 days or so the site hosted there is no longer accesible, everything starts with the site slowing don and down and then is not longer reachable, what we do is to request a power cycle, and with this we start all over again till next power cycle, so on so on, of course, here are my server details and more info on this:
- MySQL - 5.1.41-3ubuntu12.10 - Apache - 2.2.14-5ubuntu8.4 - PHP - 5.3.2-1ubuntu4.9 - operating system: Ubuntu Server 10.04 LTS
After some time emailing the support guys to barely check about what's going on, we received an email with a few things:
1.- found a few errors that likely would cause issues with Apache. The first error is: [Mon Feb 04 05:03:10 2013] [error] mod_fcgid: fcgid process manager died, restarting the server and the next error is: [Mon Feb 04 14:32:34 2013] [error] server reached MaxClients setting, consider raising the MaxClients setting ...
Both these errors seem to indicate that you have a process that is running out of control on your server. We were unable to determine what script on your site is running caused your connections to be maxed out however it does appear that before these errors were generated there was a WordPress plugin referenced in your access logs...
2.- Additionally during our review we did find that your error log for mercadodedinerousa.com is 45 GB's which is excessively large and can cause problems when Apache is trying to write a such a large file.
3.- The majority of the errors being logged are: [Wed Feb 06 12:12:31 2013] [error] [client 200.76.90.5] Options FollowSymLinks or SymLinksIfOwnerMatch is off which implies that RewriteRule directive is forbidden: /var/www/vhosts/mercadodedinerousa.com/httpdocs/index.pl, referer: [URL]
I came in here a couple days back looking for a reliable, powerful, and well priced VPS. I went through a couple companies and one of the first that I really seriously considered was Zone.net.
It's really all about first impressions and zone.net wins this. Their site looks great and definitely made a good impression on me. I had some questions about hosting a Debian VPS; they answered them quickly and completely. Their support is first-class and very personable. I waited on hold for less than a minute, and was instantly directed to a very knowledgeable agent.
After setting up my VPS, I can tell you that my sites get some good traffic and zone.net is handling it all great. Their bandwidth is fast, their servers are first class, and they're definitely the kind of host everybody should have.
I've been through many other hosts in search of a decent VPS and I definitely will be staying with zone.net for a while. I'm not affiliated at all with them, just a very satisfied customer. If you're thinking of opening something with them and would like an honest, third party opinion, don't hesitate to PM me.
My VPS is down at Zone.net and its been more than 12 hours, it is down. I submitted a ticket more then 7 hours ago, but no reply whats so ever from them.
I called on their number, but it goes to voicemail. Any one facing the same issue with them?
I just wanted to take a minute to express how happy I am with my new VPS from Zone.net.
There was a minor delay getting my VPS set up and they were upfront and gave me a good credit for it. This is rare in this day and age and I felt I should share how well they communicated.
So far the VPS is screaming and hosting my 3 sites without breaking a sweat.
Ill post a week or month report as I get time. This site helped me find Zone.net, so some more good feedback can't hurt. :-)
Before aweek i was looking from good company to take VPS so i saw here some poeple commend with zone.net. so i take VPS from them they are not to bad they have excellent dealers but the support slow if you issue ticket its will take hours to answer you.
so i will write my problem to (web hosting talk members) maybe they will help me one it
my web some times normal for me i can inter it but some visters can't inter the web & some times i can't inter the web but some visiters can inter & if am used the PHproxy i can inter.
the masseges that come to the web
(The requested item could not be loaded by the proxy. Proxy server is unable to locate the server: tdwl-academy.com. The server does not have a DNS entry. Check the server name in the Location (URL) and try again.)
I have multiple valleywag friends who have gone with Zone.NET for server hosting. I decided to do the same a few weeks back and use them as well. I never got my IP and server info and called customer support. No kidding... been 9 days and Level 1 support kees saying someone will get back to me.
So today I call them and ask them if they are going out of biz because customer support is impossible bad, and he basically said yes!!! Wish they would have told me that upfront.
Anyway, wasted a few weeks with them. Now my cohorts and I are on the lookout for some new hosting companies. All recs welcome
I'm trying to setup an option on my server. I hope one of you can help me out a tad...
I'm trying to configure my server to allow an option that I usually call wildcard DNS. I need any domain that's pointed to a server to go to a parked page (just like a welcome to <domain> it's coming soon). I can do the parked page, just need to figure out the DNS/Apache settings.
I know it can't be too hard but I just can't find it...
It has come the time to find out who REALLY IS Zone.net
This is the moment where zone.net is experiencing their worst situation ever. We are all offline since friday, we are all extremely nervous and some of us are even losing clients because of the prolonged downtime. Many of us have sent awful emails to zone.net and there are thousands of complaints arriving continuously to zone.net.
I'm amazed to see how zone.net is behaving in front of this awful & critical situation.
Believe it or not, they are politely answering the emails, they opened a special page where they update everything that's going on so that we all know what's happening and what they are doing, they have a lot of engineers working continuously to solve the situation as soon as possible and they really are devoted to end this nightmare. So this is NOT only our problem -as their customers-, but their problem as well and therefore, we are all together on this and as such we should help each other instead of screaming at them.
Zone.net is showing with facts and with their behaviour that they are a SERIOUS AND VERY DECENT AND PROFESSIONAL company who deserves our support & help because it is nowadays extremely difficult to find decent and professional people like the one at zone.net. The fact that there's a problem today doesn't mean more than what it really is, and that problem we are suffering now has taught us that zone.net is one of the best companies we can possibly find. I'm pretty sure & confident this great people will satisfactorily solve the situation in a short while.
You actually know a company when that company is in trouble. Otherwise they are all great....
to edit a DNS Zone (via WHM=> DNS Zone Edit) of a domain hosted on my server & which NS's are routed to.
New setting should route domain to a seperate server (i.e HTTP, FTP) and leave EMAIL on my server.
I've changed all settings, except MX & mail CNAME, to the new IP (This includes NS's, A's, CNAME's - WWW & ftp). Still the WWW is not working and email has stopped working localy.
