I’m not sure if this is related to the problems from the site, or if it’s something I did…so I’d like to try to fix it if I messed it up I added a new database this morning, and installed wordpress for my site. I went through the wordpress instructions to create a user, added 2 plug-ins, and went to try to access my admin panel to make a post, or upload a template, but now it can’t be found….I get this error “Error establishing a database connection”. I can log into my ftp via the control panel (and I can see the folder for (mysite)/photographers), and also on fireFTP, but in FireFTP I cannot see the (mysite)/photographers folder. I’m not sure if this has to do with the outage or if I’ve made a change that created this problem.

Hello everyone,

I am helping an ex client of mine find a reliable shared account. She really needs at least semi-managed hosting and I simply don’t have the time nor man power to meet her needs at this time.

Her current account usage is: Disk Usage: 20 MB, Disk Limit: 10000 MB, 0% Used :: BW Usage: 20 MB, BW Limit: 51200 MB, 0% Used

As you can see, she really doesn’t use much.

She needs a shopping cart. It doesn’t matter which one long as it’s easy for her to add new products. Basically, she needs the host to install it, secure it, and keep it up to date. This is why I say she needs at least semi-managed. She knows nothing at all about web hosting and installing software.

She makes her own blankets and such, which this website is used to sell them. There are NO issues nor worries of copyright.

I was charging $54.95/yr for this account.

Please post your best offers. I am not setting a budget as in the end, she will be deciding on the best price and plan.

She does own the domain but will need an SSL

Thanks,
Jerry

Good Morning DHCrew, I am having a bit of a problem with my domain directory. Since joining Dreamhost in 2006, I have hosted a plethora of websites, many of which no longer exist. Yet, they still show up under my domain directory in my Ftp Client. (CuteFTP Pro 8, and FileZilla). I have tried deleting them from through my FTP Client, and I either get this error: “Request denied. Please verify that the file or folder exists and that you have the necessary permissions on the server to perform the requested operation.” (CuteFTP) Or it goes through the motions of deleting the directory, and upon refreshing I find that nothing has changed (FileZilla). I have tried connecting through SFTP, but everytime I try to login through SFTP I get this error” “Error:Fatal: unable to initialise SFTP on server: could not connect Error: Could not connect to server” I am at a loss…? What do I do to take these directories off my server? It’s taking up space that I would rather not waste on dead sites. I appreciate any help and assistance! Thanks for reading! Best regards, L.

I run a WordPress site where I have a widget that displays PHP code, and I use it to pull-in another PHP file that displays a random quote from a MySQL database. The code for this is fairly straight-forward and simple, and does not seem to throw errors on my local server - but apparently it does every time it runs on the actual site at HG. I’m a little miffed by the error and was hoping someone could explain it to me …

Quote:

[17-Jan-2012 15:10:26] PHP Warning: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library ‘/usr/local/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-zts-20060613/ixed.5.2ts.lin’ - /usr/local/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-zts-20060613/ixed.5.2ts.lin: undefined symbol: executor_globals_id in Unknown on line 0

Could this error be caused by the widget itself? It’s the PHP-Code-

Now i transferred all my files and made correct changes to mysql db settings etc.. all working nicely… only thing left is the facebook connect button to make it work. as far as i know this requires the server to have json installed. When i click it now; i get a fatal error, so im wondering if json is installed and if not; how to go about it with dreamhost. Surely its got to be either installed or have instructions how to do it as many sites use facebook app, connect or other plugins. Thnx in advance. just for those people with same problem, i found out a little more in meantime. php info file says: json support enabled json version 1.2.1 so seems its enabled as default and problem must be something else thnx

Good Afternoon,

I am looking at starting my own web hosting site (using a hostgator resellers account) but have a question.

Once purchased, i then obviously need to create a website for my new hosting company as I take it that buying a resellers account isnt a once click setup installation that does all this part for you.

So, once my hosting site has been designed:
a) Do i have my own hosting package/space within the reseller account to upload all the relevant website files/images etc

b) how do i link it all up (my design to the wHM automation) so that once a customer clicks on sign up etc it automatically takes them through the signing up process.

I already have a normal host package and will be upgrading it to a reseller account ( i take it that this is the best way to sign up in my position).

Sorry not new to hosting, but new to the reselling. Any pointers would be welcome.

Hello, I am trying to setup a Subversion for my project. I have setup the Subversion project through the Dreamhost panel (Goodies > Subversion) about a week ago. It says the project is created and ready to go. (I have “leave it alone” selected for the “add www” option in my configuration) But nothing I do in Netbeans seems to work. I have bad experiences with Tortoise so I’d prefer to avoid it. Netbeans asks for 3 things: 1) Repository URL 2) User 3) Password I am sure I have the user / password correct, so I must be doing something wrong with the URL. So, these are the URLs I’ve tried: 1) http://www.vantagecp.com/Project Result: org.tigris.subversion.javahl.ClientException: ‘/Project’ path not found: 404 Not Found ( http://www.vantagecp.com ) 2) http://vantagecp.com/Project Result: org.tigris.subversion.javahl.ClientException: Repository moved permanently to ‘/Project’; please relocate OPTIONS request failed on ‘/Project’ 3) http://vantagecp.com/ Result: org.tigris.subversion.javahl.ClientException: Repository moved permanently to ‘/’; please relocate OPTIONS request failed on ‘/’ 4) http://www.vantagecp.com/ Result: org.tigris.subversion.javahl.ClientException: Malformed XML Netbeans gives an example url next to the URL box that says “http://hostname/repository_path[@REV]” I’ve worked on projects with SVNs before and I’ve never really had trouble, but I’ve never setup my own SVN so I’m a bit of a newbie.

Where do I find a File Manager function that allows me to see my site structure as DreamHost would see it? (How can I get out of the WP module and see actual files in the index directory, for instance?) 2. If I can’t do that (heck, even if I can) how do I find where I named the index page? I no longer can find it, but it seems to be interfering with allowing WP to upload. 3. If I want to upload files that are clickable by name, how do I do it? 4.

I think customer support is of paramount importance with any kind of business. But it’s especially crucial with web hosting. There are so many people out there who want to have a website but have no idea how to set it up. Hosting companies that can answer the bell will get the business.

Hi all, below is my first post, my plan for moving a client’s hosting and registration from two separate companies to DreamHost. Sorry in advance for its length, and if there are already answers out there - I’ve done some research over the past month and this is the plan I’ve come up with. Use it for yourself if you want, and let me know what you think, ESPECIALLY if you see something that is wrong. It’s very important that there is no noticeable downtime, otherwise it may become known that I’m not *quite* the expert I claim to be (shh!)… I’ll post a corrected list of my steps if anyone corrects me! (please!) My biggest top priority is uninterrupted email - most of the requests for my client’s business are done via email. - Am I changing MX records with the old registrar? - Does just pointing to DH’s nameservers at the old registrar tell the interwebs to listen to DreamHost from now on, or is this only if the registration is transferred to dreamhost? - I understand that as DNS propagates some machines will send mail to the old addresses and some to the new, which is why I’m keeping the old with the newly-added accounts, but what happens when my client’s machines start resolving mail.domain.com as the DreamHost’s mail before ALL of the internet is no longer sending email to the OldHost’s mail servers? Will this email only be accessibly through webmail or with forwarding to a gmail (or w/e) account? Thanks in advance to anyone and everyone, and sorry the post is so long. Hope to get some help, or at least help someone out there! === CLIENT’s MIGRATION TO DREAMHOST 1. QUESTIONS 2. WEBSITE MIGRATION 3. SEAMLESS EMAIL MIGRATION 1. QUESTIONS FOR CLIENT * Who is your domain registrar? * Who is your web host? * Do you have a complete list of e-mail addresses you have (@domain.com)? * What program are you using to access your e-mail? Do you know which protocol you are using to access your e-mail? Could you send me a screenshot or list of all settings for your @domain.com e-mail addresses? * Is there webmail access from your current web host? 2. WEBSITE MIGRATION * Mirror domain.com site hosted with OldHost at domain.dreamhosters.com <http://wiki.dreamhost.com/Transfer_your_hosting_to_us#I_have_my_Registration_at_one_company_and_my_Hosting​_at_another_company> * Verify that domain.dreamhosters.com matches domain.com * Download complete domain.com site (”public_html” directory and all sub-directories, in my case) * Upload complete domain.com site (”public_html” directory and all sub-directories, in my case) to a new domain.com directory on DreamHost server * Verify that domain.com site on DreamHost server works <http://wiki.dreamhost.com/DNS_-_Viewing_site_before_DNS_change> * Change DNS settings at current registrar to point to DreamHost’s nameservers: ns1, ns2, and ns3 * Wait and watch as DNS settings propagate * Check everything again to verify everything works and looks nice * Double check! * Cancel hosting with OldHost (after e-mail successfully migrated, of course) 3. SEAMLESS EMAIL MIGRATION * “Mirror” (create) e-mail users from list provided above (step 1) in DreamHost panel * Configure any forwarding as exists in DreamHost panel * Configure new e-mail accounts on Client’s staff e-mail clients, using same account name with suffix “NEW”, e.g., and using DreamHost’s mail servers (e.g. sub#.mail.dreamhost.com) to collect mail at new address as DNS propagates * Maintain old e-mail addresses and accounts on client’s e-mail clients to collect mail at old address as DNS propagates * Change MX records to point to DreamHost(????) <http://discussion.dreamhost.com/thread-130072.html> * Wait at least a week (for safety’s sake) before verifying (how?) that new DNS settings have propagated throughout the web * Double check! * Cancel old e-mail hosting (after website successfully migrated, of course) * Move all old accounts’ mail to new accounts’ mail in e-mail clients * Delete old e-mail accounts in clients and remove “NEW” (e.g.) suffix from new accounts

Over the course of the years I have used HostGator, only once have I called tech support and had them resolve an issue on the phone. All but one issue had to be upgraded to an "admin", and admin has NEVER resolved a single issue for me.

What they DO is waste your time rehashing that which you’ve already been over with the 1st guy, only this time it’s via email at the rate of 2 or 3 emails a day. Then, when they can’t figure anything out, they usually come back and tell you it’s either your fault or not their responsibility for some reason or other.

You are then forced to come to these forums and publicly complain, rehashing all the details for yet a third time, in order to get anything done.

In my current case, they didn’t even bother to come back with the "your fault/not our responsibility". They just quit answering me altogether.
See the original thread under reseller support here.

My case is not uncommon. A large number of the threads here are complaints. Yes, they now have a green + icon beside them, but if you look at the subject, that doesn’t seem to match with a green icon, does it? HostGator changes them from their original red icons.

Yes, that’s always after the complaint has been resolved, but it doesn’t matter. They still started out as complaints. And that just serves to prove the point that you can’t get a problem resolved thru normal tech support channels.

Resellers don’t have time for, and can’t afford this. I heard today that I am apparently going to lose a customer because a "provided" piece of software doesn’t work, (Spam Assassin), and now I can’t even get tech support to communicate with me.

I have been a virtual web host since 1998. In that time, I have used several different companies. NEVER, and I repeat, NEVER have I been with a company that:

a. Doesn’t give resellers separate, voice tech support.
b. Treated resellers like end users.
c. Simply stopped communicating.

HostGator’s "admins" are arrogant, unprofessional, and apparently incapable of even doing their jobs. If you’re looking for reseller hosting, I’d certainly go elsewhere. I am.

I am having problems creating anything besides full size images in Wordpress. The buttons for thumbnail, medium, etc. are greyed out. I posted my problem to the Flexsqueeze (theme I am using) forum and they suggested that my GD Library might not be installed. I appear to be running PHP5 and I thought the GD library was included with that. How can I verify that to be true? I’ve spent days researching other solutions and have not found any other possible causes/solutions. Would appreciate any help. Thank you.

I know this must be a super basic question, but I am not familiar with the lingo to search for it. I have a hosted website at another host. I have a domain name registered at DH. I want my domain name regiestered at DH to point to the hosted site at another host. Question number 1 is, how do I say that using the correct terms? Question number 2 is, how do you do it? Thanks!

Greetings, I am interested in having https added to my site as some members are requesting to have this. So I was wondering what the total costs are going to be and what is required to get https working? I noticed Dreamhost has a Secure Hosting option that costs $3.95/month for Unique IP billing. So I buy this and then click Add Secure Certificate, which costs $15. Is this an actual SSL certificate that costs only $15? It turns out that the total is $62.40. Is this all that is required for full SSL and https security or is there anymore that I need to purchase? Thanks

What gives with requiring a captcha code to add a new domain? These things are not only a pain in the a**, but they are commonly near impossible to read even after refreshing a number of times.. Are there any future plans to maybe remove captcha requirements for accounts that have been around for a number of years, or have no patterns of abuse or anything like that?? Or maybe ditch captcha entirely and ask a simple math question or one of those “what color is an orange?” type user verification..?

Okay, so yesterday (Jan. 9th, sometime after 12pm) I paid for my hosting pack. I started out with the transfer option on sign up. I followed the directions on the Free Transfer page for my domain name and then sent the request.

After that, I received an e-mail saying I needed to click the link to verify my e-mail so they could make sure my ticket wasn’t spam. I clicked the link and was taken to a plain white page with plain text that said, "Account already activated." Nothing more.

My ticket status says On Hold. In the meantime, I went ahead and paid $15 dollars to transfer another domain name I have. That’s done and done, went smoothly. However, for my primary domain it still says "On Hold" and I haven’t heard anything from HostGator yet.

Is this normal? Do I keep waiting or do I need to contact support? I really just want to know what the status is on my primary domain.

I have two Hostgator accounts, one for business and one for personal. they are both "Baby Plan" accounts. On the business account every thing seems to work fine, but on the personal account Horde does not work for me to access my email. I do not recall having to setup anything special on the business account though I did install Joomla there for website generation. On the personal account I just installed some old html based websites that I had already generated and of course setup the email. I can access the email with SquirrelMail and RoundCube, but not with Horde.

When I try to use Horde I get the following error:
A fatal error has occurred
DB Error: connect failed
Details have been logged for the administrator.

Does anyone know how I should go about fixing this?

I have a site that was built through Intuit’s SiteBuilder/Homestead service. That domain is http://www.ilcs-riverside.org I decided to move away from that service and register a new domain ( http://www.immanuelriverside.com ) and hosting service through DreamHost and couldn’t be happier. I’d like to auto-direct the old domain to my new site/domain. I thought I could do that through Intuit/SiteBuilder but after 30 minutes on the phone with their tech support, they’re saying that the issue is on DreamHost’s end, which doesn’t make sense to me. Do I need to actually code an auto-direct page with an <on_load> function or is there something simpler than that? Thanks for your help. -corey
