How to / Messed up big time, need a fix
« on: May 09, 2016, 02:43:30 PM »
While trying to find and fix an exploit I've managed to really mess up my access to my server. I stopped all the services except web & mysql and for some reason I managed to reboot my VPS in that state. Now I can not log in via CWP or via terminal.
I'm left with only the main domain site working and all the other sites inaccessible. Can anyone help ? I've sent a support request in as I'm willing to pay but I've not heard anything yet.
BWT - I noticed the auto Wordpress updates where sending me false reports that my WP installations had been updated to the latest version. I noticed this as suddenly I started getting failed emails that were in fact spam being sent out from my server.

Other / Adding harddrive space
« on: November 10, 2015, 06:37:23 PM »
My server has 3 drives, when I had CWP setup I had one drive for the data and another for the backups. The 3rd drive, I don't think, was used but it does show up on CWP. I wondering now how easy it would be to expand the data drive to take advantage of the 1TB on this free drive ?
I don't have a clue really about how to do this, I wonder if this is something that CWP could do for me and if it's within the support package I have ?

Worked fine for me ...........twice. They installed in on two servers, one VPS and on dedicated on a monthly support contract.
Yes the are things some might want that are missing from CWP but the things needed are there and other things you can add or configure. If you like cpanel pay for it but CWP is a clear alternative and will only get better.

How to / How To Parked Domains - multi domains to one domain
« on: May 01, 2015, 02:55:05 PM »
Picked this little trick up while looking to redirect some domains. You could do this in the htaccess file but if like me that doesn't work <long story> you might need this because CWP does not currently do parked domains.
For a site that has changed it's domain or has multi domains pointed to it.Lets say your main domain is MYDOMAIN.COM but you used to use one called MYOLDDOMAIN.COM. You don't want to loose the visitors who still go to the old domain name and you still own it or the domain is just another version eg. mydomain.com, mydomain.co.uk, mydomain.eu etc etc
Edit the vhosts file found under Apache Settings. Look for the Host section of MYOLDDOMAIN.COM and add in the line RedirectPermanent / http://newdomain.com/
EXAMPLE
# vhost_start olddomain.com
<VirtualHost ***.***.89.41:80>
ServerName olddomain.com
ServerAlias www.olddomain.com
RedirectPermanent / http://newdomain.com/

Information / Moving data from on account to another ?
« on: April 28, 2015, 03:29:28 PM »
I'm been really stupid here, I've made a typo in a domain name when setting up an account. I've edited the vhosts file to fix that but how do I edit the domain name in the user account - it's not editable.
Normally I would just delete the account but I've already setup 3 databases and moved 35gb of data to it. In fact I've just wasted hours trying to fix problem that turned out not to be problems associated to moving the site
when it was this typo :-) I thought everything was fine because the site has other domains I used to move first then checked the DNS was working.

Information / Re: Add domain
« on: April 28, 2015, 03:04:15 PM »
So run me thougth how you do that please ?
When adding a domain it asks where you want the data put and give the edit box /public_html
Do you edit that and add to it /public_html/newsite ?
Suppose you do, just seem strange to me as I'm used to each site having their own /public_html

Addons / Re: Zip in file Manager
« on: April 27, 2015, 12:26:48 PM »
I second the zip feature, perhaps CWP could hand off to more featured open source FTP application. I wouldn't trust any web based ftp service by a 3rd party for my ftp data.

« on: April 27, 2015, 12:17:56 PM »
I think what he means is why can't one user account have 2 or more seperate websites each having their own domain. I don't know if this is possible, all I see in an account is to add addon domains. I've looked to do this and always end up just adding another user account. This means if I have ten websites on my server I have ten accounts. It's an issue I can put up with, but I suspect I'm doing something wrong as I've only being using CWP for a short time.

Installation / A big thanks to CWP Support Team

I hope it's OK to post this in here, I couldn't see "A BIG THANKS" section :-)
I've just had the suport team install CWP on my new dedicated server. I want to tell you this is a service well worth it's price, I also signed up to the $10 a month support package and I can recommend these people too highly.

Information / Re: fix file size upload on web ftp
« on: March 02, 2015, 11:31:47 PM »
The are a few reasons why a file won't upload via FTP when using the default package.
Look in there and increase if needed. For example I could upload files more then 1mb, I also hit the disc quota too. Just add a string of 00000s to the setting.

How to / Re: how to create new user account on CentOS Web Panel
« on: March 02, 2015, 11:54:40 AM »how to create new user account on CentOS Web Panel [CWP]
1. Login to your CWP.root (Admin Area)
2. Click on User Accounts
3. Click on New Account (Create a New Account)
4. Fill new account form (Domain,Username, Password, Package, Email address, Backup)
Account Creation Will do the following
- Create New Account with shell disabled
- Add Configuration for a domain in apache config file (suPHP,suExec, Domain path)
- Create public_html folder (used for uploading public scripts)
- install default template (index.html file)
- restart/reload apache configuration
- Create and reload DNS zone for a domain
Now you can upload your files using ftp login details of the account.
suPHP requires following permissions
Folders: 755
Files: 644
Can you give more details on setting up domains. So I have a server setup on domain1.com - how do I upload a website to this domain ? When creating a user I can not set the domain in that form to domanin1.com it give an error.
Yet if I use another domain - domain2.com - the data upload to that domain goes to domain1.com. And it seem both domain point to the same place.
