What Is Domain Addon
Jun 10, 2009When a hosting said: 10 domain addons, does it mean, I can have up to 10 domains with different content?
In other words, the 10 domain will NOT point to the same content.?

I have domain1.com as the main domain that I am using with cpanel and domain2.com as an addon domain that points to a different directory.
I want to move domain1.com to another server and I would like to know if I can make domain2.com the main one
what are the differences?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a domain with 2 addon domains added to it.
Lets call the domain1.com and the addons are domain2.com and domain3.com
I transfered the sites from one server to my server and know if I try to goto domain2.com or domain3.com they are not found.
If I goto domain1.com/domain2 (or 3) it works just fine though.
I tried to do the addon domain in cpanel but it is coming up with the following errors.
Bind reloading on server using rndc zone: [domain1.com] The subdomain, domain2.domain1.com has been added.
Error from park wrapper: domain2.com is already configured.
Removed domain2.domain1.com Server at line: 1244. Removed Entry from httpd.conf Bind reloading on server using rndc zone: [domain1.com] The subdomain, domain2.domain1.com has been removed.
domain2.com could not be setup. The subdomain domain2.domain1.com was not setup either.
How can I fix this?
I did try to make domain2 its own account after that, but the script did not work for some reason even though it does if I goto domain1.com/domain2.
I know it must be something simple I am missing, but for the life of me I am drawing a blank.
Also, I moved the site by doing a complete backup in Cpanel and uploaded that to the new server and restored it from the WHM backup screen.
I currently have an established domain, mainsite.com, which is running PHP-Nuke on the directory /home, with a redirect accordingly.
Now, I've created an addon domain, 2ndsite.com, for which I've installed Wordpress at the top-level.
The trouble is, 2ndsite.com defaults to mainsite.com/home - unless I redirect 2ndsite.com to mainsite.com/2ndsite. If I do that, I can then see my WordPress installation.
I'd obviously like to have 2ndsite.com be viewed from that address, as opposed to a subdir under mainsite.com - that is why I got the domain in the first place.
I create a abc.com domain hosting in whm. then I login to abc.com cpanel to AddOn Domain. I try to addon xyz.com into abc.com cpanel. But when i enter to xyz.com website it always show "Great Success !
Apache is working on your cPanel and WHM⢠Server" cPanel and Apache page. The domain is already more then 2 days and ping already propogate to server. May i know is httpd.conf or mod_security problem?
Can a domain be parked on an addon domain in a cPanel server?
At first thought I do not see it as a problem as a ServerAlias directive for the parked inside the addon domain Virtual Host container inside httpd.conf is all is required but cPanel may not allow for all it's wisdom.
Let me know if cPanel would pose a problem or wouldn't allow this scenario.
I have setup an Addon Domain in cPanel.
[url]is pointing to:
[url]
That is working fine, test it for yourself.
However, I want the URL in the browser to read: [url]but currently as you can see the long URL appears.
How can I make the short clean URL appear in the browser?
Currently, 2 domains hosted on a dedicated server with each account having its own Cpanel. I'm going to move/migrate these 2 domains to a shared hosting server.
The shared hosting accont has Cpanel and I've added 2 Add-on domains (the same ones on the dedicated). In total, there are 3 domains under the shared hosting account; The main domain and the 2 other (add-on) domains.
My question is it possible to restore these 2 accounts under a single cpanel account and having all the emails intact? So, in essence, I'm having a single cpanel account to manage the 2 domains to be transferred from the dedicated.
I have 2 domains on 1 account. My main website is www.aviationcafe.net and i added on www.modelcuir.com thats what it looks like to the public. But with my host it will be www.modelcuir.aviationcafe.net.
I noticed in the files area that modelcuir is it's own file, i can password protect that but it will stop people getting onto the website completly and i only want to stop them getting into the members area.
I can't create a members area either unless i can add a new folder which i can't i dont think.
I have an addon domain running on my webhosting along side my primary account. I am mostly using the Thunderbird client to send e-mails. 80% of the time when I send a mail out from "name@addondomain.com" hotmail, gmail, yahoo all see it as spam!
What's ironic is I receive more darn adult e-mails in my free accounts than anything else, and yet it's thinking the occasional mass personal message is SPAM?
So these guys that flood my inbox daily must know something I don't?
Is there something I'm doing incorrectly? Or do I need to change a hosting package setting, should I use different software such as a php mailing list?
I'm trying to understand more the Pro's and Con's for having an Addon Domain vs Separate domain.
Here's my use for it. Site1.com holds all the files, Site2.com holds all the video and images. When it comes time to add a second server (end of this year) I could move Site2.com to a second server and nfs mount it. Thats of the site is separate. PROBLEM: separate site means permission problems, when write code ie.php you can unlink / move files without permission which means setting up special groups.
Addon domain doesn't have the permission problem from what I can see, since the domain gets the group access of the Mainsite. so no extra configuration required. now the problem would be how do I get that addon domain to a second server to offload some of the resources.
Now that I am on a VPS, I have a handful of addon domains (linked to subdomains) that I want to move to individual Cpanel accounts.
Is there any shortcut to doing this (moving DB's, emails, etc.), or do I just need to create the cpanel account, recreate the emails, restore the DBs, etc.?
Lets say I have abcd.com as the main domain on cpanel. abcd.com has 10 subdomains.
Basically what I want to do is when I do an addon domain or parked domain I want the subdomains to basically point to abcd.com automatically. Let's say the addon/parked
domain is 1234.com
For example I have
sub.abcd.com as the main subdomain
so when I type in sub.1234.com I want it pointed to sub.abcd.com internally meaning the script/files from there however in the browser show as if it were sub.1234.com
Well recently changed a clients site over to our servers.
I trying to help the guy by clearing out most of the unwanted stuff..
I try to delete some addon domains, but they state
"Error from park wrapper: Sorry, I do not believe you control the subdomain for 'domain'.com."
but he does own it.. and its infact in his account... unsure how to alter this, as there isnt any option in whm...
I have created a addon domain using cpanel.
I would like to restore awstats from prevous host (normal account) to 'addon domain' (domain2-addon.domain.co.uk).
My backup awstats:
awstats.domain.co.uk.conf
awstats122005.domain.co.uk.txt
awstats052005.domain.co.uk.txt
etc.
need to restore it to addon domain? but addon domain is setup under domain2-addon.domain.co.uk
so i have to rename each file like awstats.domain2-addon.domain.co.uk.conf etc?
I find that I like using CPanel with addon domains in a new unlimited domains shared plan rather than using WHM with each name having its own CPanel in a reseller plan (which I have been used to until now at another host). The only problem is that all the addon domains are out of order - they are not even in the order in which I add them. This puts a damper on things and makes managing them much less efficient than one would expect with the addons in order.
After putting in a support ticket, I was told they can't do anything about it at all. They told me the order of the listing is the order in the "mail server apache configuration."
After posting this matter here in the Apache forum, I have been informed by an SP member that the answer I got wouldn't hold any water at all, or more accurately, consists of a whole lot of smoke. As a person who knows how easy and basic it is to sort data lists or drop-down form selector fields myself, I must admit that it's hard to believe nothing can be done in the 21st century.
I have no desire at all to go with another reseller plan, and like using CPanel instead with addons.
Does anyone know of the good and well known unlimited domain hosting providers who keep the addon domains in order within CPanel? Is there any other good option for shared hosting that doesn't involve using WHM and does offer common sense multiple domain management where everything is in order?
