I have a question about SSL certs.
How do you transfer an SSL cert that you have on your current hosting plan to new servers hosting plan?
This is on Plesk and on a VPS and I have root access on both servers and both are Plesk if this even makes a difference.
I am trying to transfer a customer account from a remote server (both servers run Cpanel) and I get this error message
Logged to my server I got this message
Packaging the account... The password you provided is not correct.

I have 2 domains under the SAME vps, and just want to copy all the folders under one domain to the other. I don't want to download them and re-upload them as there are way too many. Is there an easy way to copy a select amount of folders in another way from one account to another? (I don't want to copy the entire account, just certain folders).

What is the best way to do this and how would be the process ? I guess there is an easier way to migrate it rather than by moving individual domain accounts.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have agreed to update website A (with url A) on host A. Both are rubbish.
I would like to build the new site with host B for various reasons (essentially I want / need more than one 50Mb database).
If I build the new site B on host B under a temporary URL, I'll then need to transfer the domain from host A to host B. So my questions are:
How easy is it to transfer url A to host B and to point to site B? What will happen to the approx. 70 email addresses on host A? Will I have to manually recreate them at host B and any emails stored on the server will be lost?
I have registered a .gg domain which is a local domain where i live, They are going to charge me a lot to host an email account, is there anyway i can get this from somewhere else without transfering my domain name (nowhere can host accept a .gg domain name).
If so how is this done?
What is the best way to transfer the cost of webhosting to a client?
What I'm trying to establish is for instance, if you design a website and offer to set-up the hosting for them for say, an inital 2-year period, how do you go about getting them to pay for the hosting after the 2 years has expired? The same obviously applies to a domain right?
I just want to provide what it takes to change hosting company or moving from one to another.
Here is 10 steps how you can do it.
Please correct me if I forgot something or I am totally wrong (wing-wong)
1.Identify a web hosting company that provides the features and services most suitable for you.
2.Order an appropriate hosting package from the supplier.
3.Use the Control Panel facilities to manage your email boxes and such like.
4.Begin the transfer of your domain or change the domain records and change email settings if required (your new web hosting supplier
should provide guidance and support to make this as simple as possible).
5.Copy all your files from your previous web hosting service.
6.Upload the files to your new hosted web space.
7.Transfer any databases required for your website.
8.Check that all files have been copied and uploaded successfully.
9.Test functionality and content related to any databases.
10.If you have not done so already, cancel your previous hosting service.
By the way I think that the most biggest problem is to know how to get moving from one to another hosting that’s why people always thinks that
they will stick to one hosting company and forget all major problems with that company (downtimes, long servers maintenance and etc.)…
I am trying to analyze cPanel, DirectAdmin and Plesk and will provide all (as much as I can) information regarding how to transfer your website.

I would be glad if you would share some information with me on this forum. Really would be awesome…
Anyway I think it would be great idea to have all information together collected.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have about 5 sites all hosted on my same hosting account. One of those domains is attached to the hosting account. I place my other domains in a folder of a sub-directory of my main domain. This has been working fine, up until today when i noticed a weird error. I give you a little example of how my sites are setup
my main domain:
www.maindomain.com
My other sites hosted in a sub-directory of my main domain:
www.maindomain.com/sites/site2/
www.maindomain.com/sites/site3/
How my other sites appear on the web:
www.site2.com
www.site3.com
This works fine for every page until i go to www.site2.com/index.php
It redirects to www.maindomain.com/sites/site2/index.php for some reason
Can WHT'ers please suggest some reliable UK hosts so I can do some research on them? I am just looking for a small hosting account hosting one domain.

there are few company around who offer lot of space an BW. I am thinking to use that account for backup our three VPS.
Is that secure?
I am trying to determine the best design approach for this business need.
There are multiple URLs:
[url]
[url]
[url]
The URLs are going to be specific to a topic but the displaying of the pages is template based. For example, there is 1 JSP page that will display the content for a topic based on an ID.
[url]is ID 1 in my database table.
[url]is ID 2 in my database table.
[url]is ID 3 in my database table.
So I could do a form post to display the specific content for a topic.
Code:
<form name="frmTopic" action=”/topic” method="Post">
<input type="hidden" name="topicID" id="topicID" value="">
</form>
So by populating the topicID and posting this form, it directs to my JSP page and displays the content specific to the topic ID. So if I pass 1, content about cats is displayed. If I pass 2, dogs and 3, birds.
I want to keep the URLs specific to the topic but I do not want to pay for hosting for each site since the only difference from one site to another is 1 page. The 1 page is the page that tells the JSP page which topic to display (I realize I have to hard code the ID number after I add the topic to the database).
Here is my question.
Is there a way I can have a specific index.htm page for each site [url]with one hosting account (I am using GoDaddy)? Then I could have this page redirect to the template JSP passing the ID. I could then put very specific items about the topic on this page to hopefully improve its page rank in search engines.
If this is not possible, I could create an initial JSP page that checks the ServerVariable for the specific URL and then passes the ID… something like this:
Request.ServerVariables("SERVER_NAME")
I am looking for feedback on the best approach so if there is an option that I have not listed that is better, please let me know.
i am about to take on a big account where i will be hosting-developing-designing and doing analysis. im not sure if i should get my own server or transfer this new account to my hosting company (host monster).
im afraid if my server goes down i will not have the experience to rectify it in a rapid speed. is it ok to keep a big account that relies on web traffic and business with a host like host monster and what are the pro"s and con's. i have only done web design and development thus far and the hosting and maintenance is pretty new to me.
How do I stop my add-on domain from appearing in the search engine as a sub-domain? For example, it shows up as example.com/test.com. I only want test.com.

View 8 Replies View RelatedWhat do you use to manage all of your hosted accounts?
We have 2 servers, and about 95 clients. We bill our clients yearly. I cant seem to rely on plesk or cpanel for billing renewal dates, owner, etc.
IS there a program out there to help me see what account is due when, etc? Also who the owner is.
Ideally, Id love it o track by server, or view all, as well as show expiration notifications.
We are just to the point where managing these on excel is getting messy.
I'm reeling right now after my shared hosting has been down for more than 24 hours (and this isn't one of the super-cheapies, it's in the $20-$30/month range)
In the future I'd really like to be protected against this kind of outage... I know downtime is inevitable with any host, so I'm wondering if it's possible to have some kind of failover system. Maybe I could get a second account with a bargain basement host (<$10/month) and keep it relatively up to date with a mirror of my site. But I don't know how I could manage the DNS so it went to the second host in the even of a failure on the first....
Does this kind of redundancy exist as some product in the industry that I don't know about (is that what "colocation" is?)? Is it likely that my host has the ability/willingness to redirect my domain (302 or something) in times of trouble like this?
Is it possible, under Linux or Windows, to limit a webhosting account to only 1 webpage (.htm,.cfm,.html,.etc..)?

For the rest i like this company,but i also want to use a hostingaccount for my own backups.
Can you recommend me a company like hostgator where i am allowed to put backups on the hostingaccount?
how can I implement fail-over web hosting with 2 cpanel account on a separate server to get 100% uptime.
It has frequent database update (1 mysql db) and files uploaded from ftp time to time.
Is rsync is the solution?
I currently use a HostGator shared plan which caps off database connections at 25. HG support said my only choice is to move to a dedicated server which means my monthly hosting cost jumps from $14.95 to $174.00! Something I'm not too excited about paying.
Can anyone offer any suggestions on Virtual Private Servers running *nix? Would a VPS be a good alternative to an expensive HG dedicated server or do you recommend I just suck it up and go dedicated? I just can't believe how much they want considering I've seen some VPS for under $100. If I did go with a VPS, would there be an easy way to move all my files, databases, SSL certs, etc to the new server?
I have several domain names and I pay for hosting for each domain name. Each domain name gets little traffic, uses little bandwidth, and little storage space. I would like to pay for hosting once and share the bandwidth and storage space amongst the multiple sites. Do you know of a hosting company that offers this? I suppose it would involve having one hosting account and multiple IP addresses that resolve to different folders in your account?
