Drupal Hosts Share your experience with Drupal Hosting!

I am working on migrating my site over to a new hosted server but am having some issues. I can view my home page just fine but as soon as I try to go to a link on the site or any url I get a "does not exist" error. This even includes non clean URLs.

Background:
New web server, same hosting company. I copied all my files over, exported mysql database, imported on new server. went through and made sure I emptied the cache tables. I changed my settings.php file to have the correct new mysql data login.

Since I have not commited yet it is running under a subdomain of another domain. For the life of me I can not figure out what I am missing. If I can get this figured out my pan is no make a few more changes to the site, then cut it over to the new server when I am ready. unfortunately I have not got pass the first step. This is my first drupal site but am still a rookie.

Can any when help me figure this one out. Is there a place where the domain that I installed the sire under statically set?

I have a website using Drupal and a TNT theme. Since using this new and highly functional theme, page load times have deteriorated somewhat. Part of the problem might be the graphical "richness" of the theme, but I really doubt it's that much more heavy-weight than many other Drupal themes.

When I contacted my host provider, A2Hosting, they said that our site was running out of connections and suggested considering upgrading to a VPS or dedicated server.

Because of this advice, I'm not sure what the problem is. I noticed the performance problems mostly after upgrading the theme. However, A2Hosting is saying that I'm just exceeding my quotas.

My question is when should I be considering upgrading from a shared server to a VPS or dedicated server? We are currently serving to about 300 unique users a day, with users spending about 5 minutes on the site and visiting between 5-10 pages.

My suspicion is that the source of the problem is the theme or a module I have installed, but I want to first exclude the possibility that maybe we have to upgrade our tier of service?

Could anyone provide a rule of thumb as to how much traffic is necessary to get before you really need to think about VPS or dedicated hosting?

Thanks

Hi

I am thinking of changing my web host to ezpzhosting.co.uk

Does anyone have any experience with them.

I notice that they run LiteSpeed Web Server, will this be a problem for Drupal?

Cheers for any responses

Linux Web Hosting
Linux Web Hosting is the most popular form of hosting on the net today. Linux operating systems and linux hosting technologies are generally open-source which has given rise to its prominence. Linux Shared Hosting is extremely scalable so as your site grows it remains easy to manage. Generally if you run a forum, blog, gallery, PHP based ecommerce site then Linux Web Hosting is for you.

Windows Web Hosting
Windows Web Hosting is based on the Windows operating system 2008. It is known for support of various programming frameworks, including ASP.net, ASP, PHP and ColdFusion. Windows Hosting also supports SQL Server (MSSQL) and Access, which can be used to build database driven websites. So if your site has pages ending in .asp or .aspx then you need Windows Hosting.

hi
i want to run my drupal site on local host, so i download the site root folder from host and then copy it to www folder in wamp
i install DB and confige setting file to new user of DB
the first page of site run correctly an so far everything in correct
but when i click on any link to go to each page it has 404 page not fine error
i copy .htaccess file from drupal to the site folder
but then, all link redirect to localhost first page and i dont know why
please help me
thanks (i am beginner in english , i so sorry for...)

I'm looking for some cues on how to calculate my needs in terms of server. I've been looking around about performance and scaling, pressflow/mercury and some study cases but it is puzzling and it seems there is no way to evaluate but just guessing. Hopefully, someone in this forum might have experience with similar config.

Drupal 6, Main modules include Ubercart&cie, Panels, Views, CCK&cie, Content profile, Taxonomy&cie, Rules, Workflow, Apache Solr, Simplenews/mimemail. On server : webmin, tomcat(solr), smtp, centos

About 35K members
About 2000 new nodes per month

Peak : april/may 5000 visits/day (anonymous) + 1000visits/day(authenticated)
Normal charge : january/march 3000visits/day + 700visits/day(authenticated)
Low charge : june/december 500visits/day + 50visits/day(authenticated)

I'm trying to figure out a budget for the hosting. Would a 2x Xeon Quad 2.13Ghz with 18 Gb of ram, APC, memcache would be enough ? Is it overkill ? Would I be better going with Pressflow/Mercury? Or am I completely wrong and need to go for a Master/Slave DB with a webserver, a DB server, a CDN, Varnish, Load balancer, round robin, etc ?

Anyone willing to share some info about hosting at this scale ?

SSL Certificates were created to validate the genuineness of a web site because it is so easy to counterfeit a business on the web. In 1995, when they were invented, a standard SSL certs provided adequate protection for consumers. SSL certs secure your website and protect transactional data. Need a secure logon for your site or online store? SSL certs must be signed by a trusted authority or more commonly known as Certificate Authorities (CA). CA’s confirm your identity by adding their signature to your SSL certificates.SSL Certificates bind an identity to a pair of electronic keys that are used to encrypt and decipher digital information. A public key encrypts the information, whereas a private key decrypts the information.

Hi there,

I've recently taken quite an old site (drupal 5.11) off a production server to run on my local machine. I want to get it running so I can make the necessary upgrades/modifications necessary. I run a wampserver wamp stack, and have tried various php versions 5.2 through to 5.3 (namely .5.2.7, .8, .9), but still receive the following:

Notice: Undefined offset: 8192 in C:\wamp\www\sitename\includes\common.inc on line 561
Notice: Undefined offset: 8192 in C:\wamp\www\sitename\includes\common.inc on line 568

repeated many times, and then in red as a drupal warning:

: Function ereg() is deprecated in 
C:\wamp\www\sitename\includes\file.inc on line 649.

many times.

The site has e-commerce ubercart package modules enabled.

Looking to be pointed in the right direction, if someone can help? Thanks.

Hi All,

I recently had to upload a clients site to Easyspace (http://easyspace.com) which wasn't the best experience. Support seem pretty inept with first-line asking "what's a Drupal"? I got passed through to a technical engineer who wasn't much help and stated that even though he couldn't tell any differences between our site install and any other clients who had Drupal running - that they couldn't help me as they don't provide script support.

Anyway, I did a one-click install and compared the differences to get the client site working, here are the differences to hopefully save someone else some time! Note: the site did function, but without clean urls.

In the .htaccess file comment out
"Options +FollowSymLinks"
and place this below:
"Options +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch"

You will also want to set the rewrite base to /
"RewriteBase /"

The default php memory limit is set to 16M, where imagecache requires 96, you can add the following line after "# but the following cannot be changed at runtime."
"php_value memory_limit 96M"

Also the default maximum upload size the server will allow is 2MB, which I pushed to 8 with the following lines (again after "# but the following cannot be changed at runtime."):
"php_value upload_max_filesize 8M
php_value post_max_size 16M"

That's it!

Good Day,

I have had it with ixwebhosting. I can't do anything, everything slows down to a crawl and they tell me that there is nothing wrong with their servers and its my drupal installation. I have had it, STAY AWAY from IXWEBHOSTING! I will not recommend this company ever..

I need recommendation to a reliable Linux hosting in the US. Please reply only if you have been with the same provider for the last 3 - 4 years and would really back them up.

Thank you,

Mark

**** EDIT ***********

site is back up, we copied the files from an old repo and things are working smoothly.

something must have gotten left behind or corrupted

Hey everyone,

We're running two drupal installations on a voxel server, and last friday their machines were going haywire and eventually our file system ran into some trouble.

our entire /www folder was set to read-only, and now once were back up and running drupal spits out nothing but some debug text

i've tried (in private) chmod'ing everything to 0777 just to make sure it wasn't that, and also had to remove one of the previously working modules due to a conflicting of function names

does anyone have any insight as to why this message is the only thing that shows up when you load index.php?

On a local MAMP server running on a MacBook Pro, I have installed a multi-site (multisite) configuration of Drupal 6.17. On a few of the sites I have performed a significant amount of development. After I purchase and configure a VPS web server I plan to upload the Drupal files, database and multisite configuration from the local MAMP server on the Mac to the VPS web server. How would one do this?

All I could find on the web discussing anything relevant was a Lullabot post which mentioned the Komodo IDE. Is Komodo or another IDE necessary to perform the upload? Is the upload straightforward? Are there any issues? ....

Background information:

I have decided to go with a Linode VPS.

My short list of VPS web host providers included Liquid Web, Linode, HostGator, HotDrupal, and Slicehost until just this morning. Based on reviews from the community, I narrowed the search down to Slicehost and Linode. By a hair, I've selected Linode. Before I make the final purchase I am looking to answer all the big questions. Even though management of an unmanaged server will require significant quantities of time and effort, I figure that the additional control and flexibility will be worth it.

Thank you for your help.

I have a domain I purchased though GoDaddy.com (http://domainBBB.com). I configured my home server to run drupal on port 81. How do I get my domain http://domainBBB.com to point to my home server on port 81?

I already have a different GoDaddy domain (http://domainAAA.com) pointing to the default port 80 and it works. I'm able to load http://domainAAA.com and it loads my pages from my home server.

I have checked my router's port forwarding and it works (meaning http://xx.xx.xxx.xxx:81 loads up the proper Apache VirtualHost directory).

I just don't know where in GoDaddy's panel that I configure it to point to a different port.

Any help is appreciated.

How can i solve this

Hi,

Can I just say that I am a complete novice - I have never built a website before and therefore I know little or nothing about jargon littered around.

This is probably going to be a really stupid question, particularly given I don't even know the correct terms to use when describing. Added to that, I'm not even sure if my question is in the appropriate topic. (Appologies if its not)

I'll try my best to explain the problem;

I am using hosting provider HaaBi.
I access the control panel through https://supremecenter15.co.uk/members/
Within that, I have an are called File Manager. (Nothing has been installed on my PC)
In file manager I have folders www/'mydomainname'.com/drupal

I had a choice of Web builders which they install through the control panel.
I chose Drupal, and Haabi's 'Elefante free scripts' seems to have installed drupal into the above folder.

The problem with this is, when I navigate to 'mydomainname'.com I get the page - 'Index of/ with a drupal folder in it
Therefore my site can only be accessed via www.'mydomainname'.com/drupal
Obviously this is not ideal, and I just want to access my site via www.'mydomainname'.com

In Habbi file manager I moved all of the drupal folder contents into 'mydomainname' folder which worked in terms of being able to access my built site via www.'mydomainname'.com.

We've been building up a LAMP stack lately based on Ubuntu Server 10.04 to host Drupal 7 in our datacenter. While there are a number of excellent manuals and tutorials out there, we noticed that very few provide a complete guide to building a Drupal-specific hosting environment, from bare metal up, that is suitable for production use. So... we took a whack at writing one: Drupal 7 Hosting Cookbook.

This guide is by no means exhaustive, but we wanted to share our current work with the community in the hope that others might benefit. In turn, we would love input and advice from experts in the community to help make this cookbook better.

Cheers,
Greg
