URGENT Re-Activating Domain

[jamesyeeoc]

PM me with the domain name and i can see if it's coming up from this end

 

[MrBafner]

Have PM'd the domain name

I can ping it ok... is why I think it maybe that. But I am often wrong :_(

 

[jamesyeeoc]

The site comes up ok in my Firefox browser, it's the initial install screen for SB.

So it is working. Try clearing your browser's cache.

 

[MrBafner]

hmmm, never had sitebuilder before.... something new to get around


There is already a full website with index.html file in place.

I did upgrade earlier to see if that would solve the problem, but I guess it added a few more features .... DOH.

 

[jamesyeeoc]

There have been other people who installed it (via the updater) and had similar problems. The quick solution was to uninstall it.

From the SSH/PuTTY command line:

rpm -e site-builder
or
rpm -e sitebuilder

(AFAIR) I don't use it either

 

[MrBafner]

hmmm, says not installed... but will go and do some more reading on this one.

Have removed it from the control panel, but still showing up.... so is another one of those things I will have to dig deep for.. lol

 

[jamesyeeoc]

Basically what is happening, there is an 'Include' statement in the

/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf OR

/etc/httpd/conf.d/httpd.conf

which is putting sitebuilder's conf file before the normal httpd.include

Or something like that, I'm too tired to look it up again.

You should be able to see the name of the RPM package by doing:

rpm -q sitebuilder
or
rpm -q site-builder

then once you see the name,

rpm -e name-of-package

 

[MrBafner]

I understand... I'll have a play around for a while to see if I can get rid of it.


Thankyou very much for your help, you are very knowledgable and should be praised muchly

Have a good sleep and thanks again.

 

[MrBafner]

Thanks again... tried many different variations, and the only successfull one was

yum remove sitebuilder

It took a long time, but did the trick in the long run.

Yes, it lead to another problem which I have to follow up, but nearly there.

Can access it via FTP, but the www displays the Plesk Default page of not having the hosting setup properly.

Maybe a all nighter ;(

 

[MrBafner]

I followed another message from which you placed when helping another person.

The solution for that problem was

/usr/local/psa/admin/bin/websrvmng -a -v

So I hope this sort of helps anyone else out that had this sort of problem.....


Whoa... what a few days that was..... Time for bed

Good night

 

[MrBafner]

The people that we hire the server from, gave me this link as their customer support and closed the support ticket.

One day I will figure out how to build a DNS server, with a linux box next to it with Plesk and start serving from home.

lol

 

[jamesyeeoc]

Gee, maybe I should send a request for a paycheck to your provider..... hahahha

Glad you got it working.

If you live close enough to at least one fiber trunk maybe you could get your phone company to hook you up. Setting up servers and DNS servers is easy, it's being in the right location....

If I had bought a house about 5 miles from my current location, I could have been across the street from where 2 backbone trunks run (darn the luck). Could have converted the house into my own datacenter (wife would have killed me )
