What was the violation? No reason given.
Details of Violation: If you are using Apache to host your site just go to the logs section. If it’s shared hosting log into your site with ftp then cd ../logs and download the files there. If you are on a dedicated host it depends on where your apache conf file tells apache to put the logs. This is different on Linux, windoze, BSD, etc. Even under Linux it’s different depending on what distro. If you have control panel or plesk you can just log in and view your logs. I have a shell script I used to use that downloaded my logs dailly and put them into a DB sorted by which server and what kidn of page hit it was. There are also free log analyzers if you are using Apache as your web server and Linux as your home OS. If you are running a dedicated Linux host you can install these and view the results from windoze machines as web pages. Reading others post. Alexa is not going to be remotely accura
This is the part that was cut off. No reason given in the reason field.

They are only accurate to represent a small fraction of web users who adopt the toolbar and find it compatable with thier web browsing. I was rather disapointed.

Reason of Violation: :

We have an apache server running a basic html web site for our design office.
I have been tasked with finding an idiot proof way to get our consultants and clients FTP access.
I want to make it so that there’s a link on our web-page that takes the user to a browser based FTP function so that the un-tech savvy can securely upload and download files for coordination on our projects without having to use such esoteric software as an FTP client (sarcasm emoticon).
Thus far I have been able to run our web-server with a minimum of overhead, so I don’t want to have to go buying exchange server or some such thing, I just wanna plug in for apache (maybe even with a GUI).

Thanks.

I feel a little more confused now and that my question before wasn’t very specific or correct to what my problem is. At the moment I have this "would be" web application sitting on my local host. Yes this has apache installed and that I could run it on this. But I don’t want to. I’d rather run it on my web server which I access usually via ftp client. When I upload the site to the internet and attempt to register. I will lose connection with MySQL because the database still remains on my localhost. In my mysqli_connect.php document I have the DB_HOST as ‘localhost’ do I need to change this or any other settings for it to work like a regular web app on its own. Like I’ve said I may not have enough knowledge of PHP and I’m totally missing the point.
The app at the moment is:

I am working on setting up a development laptop for PHP. My goal is the well-used Server/PHP/SQL combination. The laptop I am trying to equip is running Windows 7 Home 64-bit.
I have spent the last 9 hours trying to make something …Anything… WORK.
I will be putting any finished website pages on a regularly hosted server - so I’m not really concerned with the details of a development pc setup - as long as it works! I don’t care whether it is a pre-packaged installation or manual installation. I don’t even care if it’s IIS or Apache.

I tried first installing the Apache 2.2 web server. When I was done, I was able to open a browser and get the "It Worked!" message from a successful install. Then I tried to add PHP 5 to the mix and read LOTS of instructional sites online.
A.) At some point you typically need to rename "php.ini-development" to "php.ini"
B.) then change some lines inside the file to configure it.
C.) Then you are supposed to copy a file from the php .zip "install package" to your windows directory.
I think these are old instructions that do not apply to the current version of PHP 5 and Windows 7.

So I got sick of trying with Apache and tried the Windows IIS7 approach. First, I used the Microsoft Web Platform Installer 2.0 which is supposed to be "Automatic". I added the PHP option during the install, but none of my test .php pages will parse correctly when opened with a browser. They either come up showing the source php code or they show nothing at all.

Then I tried the xampp installer - which is outdated - but supposedly still works. = "http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp.html"

No luck with that. Then I tried the pre-packaged installer at SorceForge.net = "http://sourceforge.net/projects/phptriad/files/". No luck with that either.

I imagine I have cluttered the system up with so many different approaches. Maybe they are counter-acting each other.

1.) If there are files that need to be cleaned/uninstalled before putting together a Server/PHP/SQL setup - which files are they? I will clean/uninstall them.
2.) This laptop started off clean. I’d like to get it back to that point and start off on the correct foot. The directions just need to be CLEAR and UP TO DATE WITH WINDOWS 7. I’m not picky but it has to work.
I am an intermediate computer user.

Thank you much

I am trying to install the web server now using this guide: http://www.freelydifferent.com/self-hosting/lamp-for-linux-apache-mysql-php/

Before I started, I set up putty, fowarded port 22 and 80, configured the firewall to allow access through those ports and set up a domain with dyndns.

Well, installation went well, and I got the error that the guide said I would, however the pid are different numbers. That probably isn’t an issue though right? I’m expecting p id will be based on systems rather than somethind standard.

The guide then goes on to say type this:
sudo echo ServerName localhost >> /etc/apache2/apache2.conf

or in my case replacing localhost with the domain I registered at dynsys.
However, I get the following error:

-bash: /etc/apache2/apache2.conf: Permission denied

What should I do?

if I wanna design web sites and just do not wanna spend time htmling. but rather just have some web design software that I can use to build sites and produce those for commercial use?
It does not have to be free but rather good and full of options
and Can be hosted on any web server without limitations?

Currently I have verizon fios as my ISP. I would like to know the possibilities and what is necessary to have my own small web hosting server.

First, I know I would need to contact verizon and get a commercial plan along with a static IP address.

Here is where my knowledge lacks a bit… Lets say I set up an ubuntu web server (i know how to do that, i have one currently). How would I go about directing domain names at certain directories.
Lets say I have 2 websites set up under apache2. one under home/username1/public_html/ and home/username2/public_html/

Is it possible to get domain names and point them to a different website?

For example.. www.user1.com would point to home/username1/public_html and www.user2.com would point to home/username2/public_html

how would I go about doing this?

Thank you.

Which Linux/Unix OS is best for hosting a web server?

I am going to host my own website from my home, and i would like to use a Linux/Unix Operating system to do this.

Or course it will be a L.A.M.P. server (Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP)?

Or is there any other type of software bundles which is best for webserver?

Where as Linux is free, and I have some skill with Linux systems already.

Any Suggestions on which Linux/Unix OS is best to host a website?

watch part 1 first.this video shows how to setup apache to host your own website in a mac and connect to the net… please be patient it can take upto 15 mins for the domain to be active links: www.no-ip.com, www.whatismyip.com

this video shows how to setup apache to host your own website in a mac and connect it to the internet… the code that u shud type into the terminal is-”sudo pico /private/etc/apache2/httpd.conf”-without quotes.watch the next part links: www.no-ip.com, www.whatismyip.com

Can someone guide me to a good application web server host. That I can use to put my Facebook application on? I am using Java programming language. To create it but I am having the worst luck with finding a good server… Any suggestions?

Im looking for a web server that is capable of running ASP.NET v1.1 and 2.0 web apps. On my Win XP 64-bit box i only have a scaled back IIS6. Im really after virtual hosting so that i can host multiple web sites from the server instead of this virtual directory nonsense.

So far im eyeing Abyss X2 Pro v2.3+, the only working commercial solution i could find, but would like to find a free solution if possible. I’ve heard of Apache’s ability to run ASP.NET. Can you tell me is Apache as effective at serving up ASP.NET 1.1/2.0 web apps as IIS6?

I still need to be able to debug my web apps.

Thanks

I use verizon DSL, I intend to host a web Server on my system, as anyone using verizon DSL ever successfully Hosted one,
with no issues whatsoever

What is in your opinion the best web server like Linux version out there?

I’m currently running Linux Mandrake 10.2 and am having trouble making Apache host websites out of my Linux Server, Ive tried getting to it through another browser via its IP address but nothing (wont even ping it)happens, says no server availabel?? What should i do?

Publish meaning put it onto the web server (I have the IP address)
Thanks! I used the FTP Client.

I’m a computer engineer so spare the detailed code (registrations and logins) but please point me in the correct direction. I want to create a web server (with very very large disk space of course) and serve others, similar to like 1and1.com hosting or yahoo.com hosting or godaddy.com.

How can I do this?

I want to make my own web server to host my own web site and i heard that you use the program Apache to have the web server.
Then how do you make the website, with Dreamweaver or something.
And after you make the website what do you do?????

How hard would turning an external hard drive into a web server? Would I have to use Apache? Would it be cost effective to create a web server this way or would it be cheaper to just get unlimited hosting through godaddy or another hosting site?

Here’s the setup:

1) The web server is Apache 2.x on Ubuntu 8.10
2) The router is a U.S. Robotics 5461 (password protected)
3) Internet access is DSL through AT&T (dynamic IP)
4) The web hosting service is No-IP.com

I cannot seem to (find the correct information to) setup the computer as a web host. I know I am so close and yet so far. Here’s what I have been able to do thus far:

I believe I have been able to make the LAN IP address static via the "Network Configuration" (or "Network Connections") window in Ubuntu by editing "Wired" > "Auto eth0" > "IPv4 Settings" where I changed the "Method" to "Manual" and adding an "Address" with the desired IP for that computer, thus, hopefully making it static.

Anyhow, I have Apache installed, and when I go to "http://localhost/" it comes up with the test page. However, when I attempt to access the no-ip.com address, it get’s back to my router, undoubtedly, but it requests the router’s username and password. When I type this info in, instead of the test webpage, it displays the router’s firmware.

In an attempt to forward the port, I have added both a TCP and a UDP for "Port Forwarding" within the router’s firmware with a "LAN port range" of "80 to 80" and the "LAN IP address" with the static IP address that, previously, I had manually inputted. This did not take care of the matter.

What (else) do I need to do?

Thanks!

Please give me the address. Or does anyone know how to let my pc become a web server? I don’t have a fix ip, how can that to be done? Is there any software that can do so?

I need a dedicated server, But I’m 15 so I can’t buy one, So I was hoping someone may know how to get a free VPS, That I can control myself, Not just a web server. I need it to make like a game private server, But I googled and got no results.

Thanks in advance, And sorry if I seem a bit…….. Cheap.

I am looking for cheap, reliable, affordable and unlimited web server hosting service with cPanel. Can anyone recommend me one, please? Thank you.

I am trying to host a web site that i made. I am using pix 501 firewall static command.

I tried the latest apache and also iis 5.0 (comes with xp machine).

The problem is I can browse from my local network without any problem. when i try from the internet the pages dont load properly images go missing positions of texts and other objects gets all messed up.

I am using the following in pix:
static (inside,outside) tcp interface www web-server-IP www netmask 255.255.255.255 0 0
access-list 101 line 3 permit tcp any interface outside eq www

Wanting to give something back, I’m toying with the idea of setting-up a small web-hosting service to provide free hosting for a select few… probably by using sub-domains (e.g. site1.mydomain.com, site2.mydomain.com,…) for each.

The obvious choice would be to set-up a web-server and stuff on one of my own computers, but neither my internet-connection nor projected up-time is good enough.

I was therefor wondering if there are any server-parks that allows me to rent (cheaply) a Linux/Unix server for such a purpose, and manages keeping it up?

I would need Apache, PHP and MySQL for sure, and the ability to add packages of PHP scripts freely. I doesn’t matter too much if the server is specifically to be used for web-services, or if it’s set-up more for general purposes… though the latter is preferable. I basically want "my own" Linux machine — to do with as I please — with a killer connection, and someone to keep it up-and-running.
