No, haven't dabbled with host file. Almost all my PC time is on the 'net although I frequently use ccleaner and will also install apps for evaluation, and uninstall, using revouninstaller. The only major difference between my desktop and all the clients where my site works is that it has MS AV (Security Essentials) which I will uninstall today to try to get past this access issue. Thanks for all your time on this.

You *might* be able to hurry things along a bit by adding a new (temporary) SQL Hostname in your panel now you're on the new server and changing your config files to connect to the new hostname instead. Untested, but worth a shot

I am getting a mySQL server error:

mysqladmin: connect to server at 'data.bearsperth.org' failed
error: 'Lost connection to MySQL server at 'reading initial communication packet', system error: 113'

this is thus resulting in my website being only partly served.

mysql server is "barbaro:haarstad"

Any ideas, or is this one of them things that we need to wait for admin?

sdayman,

Thank you so much. That has fixed the problem. You're right - I was moved to a different server recently.

I didn't realise the script was pulling the data from .snapshot - I thought that it was just using that directory as a temporary storage place.

Thank you again.

New servers no longer have a .snapshot directory. If you've recently been moved to a different server (as I have), you'll need to make some changes.

Change the "cd /home/*user*/.snapshot/nightly.0/" to just plain ol' "cd /home/USER/"

That way instead of pulling your data from the nightly snapshot, you're pulling it from the live site. Technically, NetApp .snapshots are just anything that's changed from the current live site, like a diff. Pulling from your live site still works well.

I followed this tutorial, but are getting some problems. I see at the top of the tutorial there is a warning that I may no longer work...would that cause the issue?

http://wiki.dreamhost.com/Automatic_Backup#Backup_ALL_Domains

the domain has been replaced with 'DOMAIN' and user replaced with *user*

Starting Domain backups
Starting DOMAIN.com.au
tar: DOMAIN.com.au: Cannot stat: No such file or directory
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors
Finished DOMAIN.com.au
---Finished all domain backups...



My script is this:

#!/bin/bash
suffix=$(TZ=Australia/Brisbane date +20%y-%m-%d_%H.%M)
domains=( "DOMAIN.com.au")
cd /home/*user*/.snapshot/nightly.0/
echo Starting Domain backups
for domain in ${domains[@]}

do
echo Starting ${domain}
tar -cf /home/*user*/backups/archives/domain/${domain}.$suffix.tar ${domain}/
echo Finished ${domain}
done
echo ---Finished all domain backups...
echo

Am I doing something wrong? Thanks for any help.

I'm trying to do a backup of a table (tab-delimited txt file) using (from the command line while logged into karpis.dreamhost.com):

mysqldump --opt -T "./" -h mysql.mydomain.me -uUser -pPassword dbName dbTable

I get the error message:

mysqldump: Got error: 1045: Access denied for user 'User'@'67.205.0.0/255.255.192.0' (using password: YES) when executing 'SELECT INTO OUTFILE'

Interestingly enough, the mysqldump command does write out the dbTable.sql file, but not the dbTable.txt file (as indicated by the error message). Since I can connect, it would seem the issue might be related to file permissions, but I haven't found a way to grant "User" FILE privileges. Currently, "User" has all the privileges that are available through the Dreamhost web panel.

Is the issue with file permissions? If so, how can grant "User" the necessary permissions?

Thank you,

Andrew.

We're experiencing some problems from one or two users during SVN checkout and/or update processes.
The problem appears to affect only one or two users, and it never happens in the same place twice.

We're running Windows XP (SP3) and TortoiseSVN 1.6.6.

When performing a checkout or update, the process will halt with an error
REPORT of '/dbname/!svn/vcc/default': Chunk delimiter was invalid (http://server.com)
(proper dbname and server name redacted)

Searching for the SVN error seems to point to problems with Apache (https://bugs.launchpad.net/bzr-svn/ bug/275643)

(https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=34332)

This seems to be bourne out by some of the HTTP access log entries around the time of the SVN checkout

[Fri Nov 06 14:41:02 2009] [error] [client 98.149.79.149] Provider encountered an error while streaming a REPORT response. [500, #0]
[Fri Nov 06 14:41:02 2009] [error] [client 98.149.79.149] A failure occurred while driving the update report editor [500, #190004]

http://subversion.tigris.org/faq.html#tiger-apr-0.9.6
(This link assumes the server is running on Mac (OS X Tiger), but the errors are identical)

I can't seem to work out which version of Apache you're using though.

Has anyone else experienced these issues?

Not yet. We still have some users using older applications that may not support the newer password format -- using the newer password format would end up locking them out of their databases.

I'm not sure what method I'm using (I'm not a tech guy).
I'm using a FTP program to upload stuff.

I don't know the advertised speed as well.

but the upload speed has set to 42k/sec.

Hi All.

I am recently addicted to upload videos to my dreamhost account.

However, I noticed that the upload speed is very slow (around 42k / sec), which usually takes me 8 hrs to upload 1GB of videos.

I tried to turn off firewall and no improvments.

Any thoughts?

Thanks!

I haven't received anything from them as yet - but I've also tried intalling clean on a new domain and am still having the same problem - but my original site is still working.

I've tried running the script through the browser and get the " your plugin is working fine this is a security etc" which seems to me it's a remote call issue to their servers ...

we'll see

Seen this happen before first-hand. What I did was make a change to the user's password and it gave the backend a kick. With the 'root' ownership problem it happened when moving a domain and it's data from one user account to another and was quickly resolved by reapplying the request (hitting the button again).

I just transferred and moved a site from another Dreamhost account. The panel interface continues to make this site's dir's owned by root. This means that I cant add/edit/delete anything in those dirs and the site is now down...

Any help with this? I cant seem to find a place to call at Dreamhost to tell them what their system is doing... At first I thought it was possibly my FTP program, but I was able to edit files in OTHER dirs. I took a look at the info on the new dirs and they are root/root...



Edit: I also have a new user that I created that's sitting in a state of 'pending changes'. This is the 2nd user ive tried to create tonight, the other one was in 'pending changes' state for 2 hours... =\

That's odd. You can bang the livehttpheaders tool in to Firefox to quickly check if the SetEnv directive isn't available for some reason.

Why did you do that?

Here is what I was talking about:

NAME - print info about the host/domain NAME using default server
NAME1 NAME2 - as above, but use NAME2 as server

help or ? - print info on common commands
set OPTION - set an option
all - print options, current server and host
[no]debug - print debugging information
[no]d2 - print exhaustive debugging information
[no]defname - append domain name to each query
[no]recurse - ask for recursive answer to query
[no]search - use domain search list
[no]vc - always use a virtual circuit
domain=NAME - set default domain name to NAME
srchlist=N1[/N2/.../N6] - set domain to N1 and search list to N1,N2, etc.
root=NAME - set root server to NAME
retry=X - set number of retries to X
timeout=X - set initial time-out interval to X seconds
type=X - set query type (ex. A,ANY,CNAME,MX,NS,PTR,SOA,SRV)
querytype=X - same as type
class=X - set query class (ex. IN (Internet), ANY)
[no]msxfr - use MS fast zone transfer
ixfrver=X - current version to use in IXFR transfer request
server NAME - set default server to NAME, using current default server
lserver NAME - set default server to NAME, using initial server
finger [USER] - finger the optional NAME at the current default host
root - set current default server to the root
ls [opt] DOMAIN [> FILE] - list addresses in DOMAIN (optional: output to FILE)
-a - list canonical names and aliases
-d - list all records
-t TYPE - list records of the given type (e.g. A,CNAME,MX,NS,PTR etc.)
view FILE - sort an 'ls' output file and view it with pg
exit - exit the program

I've tried all the "cures" including ...


Confirm that your DNS queries are correct. Note the IP address assigned in the Web Panel (this is on the DNS page, the first "A" record). Then open a Command Prompt window and run the nslookup tool. Regardless of whether or not you specify the DreamHost nameservers when using nslookup you should get the same IP address from the Web Panel. If not try using the OpenDNS nameservers 208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220 instead. You can then configure Windows XP to use those if they are correct but whatever you were using before is not.

Some ISPs may have two sets of nameservers as well (e.g. for non-existant domains one set returns the proper error and the other doesn't) that you can try.

I have this infamous DH error only on my main desktop running XP. Yes, it did work satisfactorily two weeks ago. I can access my site okay from anybody else's PC or laptop(Vista and XP). I've tried all the "cures" including the Change in the edit domain screen, clearing cache, stopping my antivirus, flushdns, reboot, etc, etc.. Thank you in advance for any additional ideas?

I have several wordpress sites that I have setup locally to use the remote mysql db. This helps avoid duplication in your testing and production environments.
Since upgrading to Snow Leopard the ability to connect to remote dbs has been obliterated. I found an explanation on stack over flow:

"I have resolved this. The issue indeed was due to Snow Leopard's default of using mysqlnd as the module for PHP 5.3 it ships with, not with Dreamhost. That module flatly refuses to connect with servers using OLD_PASSWORD hash.

The only solution to this (as I can't change MySQL settings on shared hosting) is to recompile your own PHP, that will not use mysqlnd but mysql/mysqli."

I am asking here to see if anyone else has had this problem and foudn an easier solution than recompiling php.

You ain't seen nothin' yet. We've seen loads of over 5000 on machines with bad NFS mounts:

01:20:52 up 2 days,  5:52,  7 users,  load average: 5499.73, 5478.15, 5247.25

The kicker? The machine was still totally responsive, and we were able to bring it back down to normal without a reboot.

Hi,

Having the same problem with UAW plugin too -

I have also logged a ticket, but what is most bizarre is I have 2 sites on the same host ( shared environment and neither the top level domain), same config, same setup and one site works and the other doesn't....

I've never had a problem with it (got a domain sitting in Panel right now with half a dozen custom A records and a custom www CNAME pointing somewhere else). If you've hit Fully Hosted without thinking just go into Manage Domains, hit Edit and scroll down the bottom and tap DNS Only. Then take a look in your DNS and you'll see that you can do whatever you want with the records.

If you're adamant that it won't work on your account (for whatever reason) just have Support set the required key for you.

Then take a look in your DNS and you'll see that you can do whatever you want with the records.

If you're adamant that it won't work on your account (for whatever reason) just have Support set the required key for you.

Yeah, I know about the "add www" bit. It doesn't work here, I tried it. If you Google host it, both xyz.com and www.xyz.com point to ghs.google.com, but the first is useless because Google refuses to work with naked domains (even Google Sites will only set up shop on subdomains).

Maybe I'll just have to do something like both xyz.com and www.xyz.com being Dreamhosted and both of them redirect to en.xyz.com, but that solution doesn't thrill me in the slightest.

Make sure you set the FTP Host: domain.com (not MACHINE.dreamhost.com)

I have uploaded files to my website OK via ftp - BUT - when I log onto the site via a browser, the files are not found.
(All other files visible in the normal way.)

Can anyone suggest a solution please?
Thanks.

Just tried it out. Whack this in your .htaccess:

   SetEnv no-gzip


Shazam!

That's horrible load. I've no idea a server under this condition can be barely responsive. The highest load average I have seen on my server is about 15.

DH doesn't allow you to just use their DNS service.


Eh?

In reply to:

I never register any domains with them so I don't know...


Ahhh!

In reply to:

I can Google host it (in which case the base domain points to Google and they stall out with a 404 when the user browses to http://xyz.com/)


Under Fully Hosted options:

Do you want the www in your URL? ( Add WWW: Make http://example.com/ redirect to http://www.example.com/ )

DH doesn't allow you to just use their DNS service. If you use their name servers, you have to use their hosting on the primary domain: xyz.com.

Seems this domain is registered with them. I never register any domains with them so I don't know if they allow you to modify the name servers of your doimain like other domain registrars do? If so, you may use a free DNS name server service frome verydns.net and then you can modify the record accordingly.

Hey there, thanks for the reply. Daniel J in DH Support disabled mod_deflate completely in my domain's httpd.conf and it still didn't help. I had also disabled it in .htaccess as well, and got the same result -- even after several runs of the script in case it *was* cached.

Any other ideas?

No, sadly, he's the one doing everything. I'm going to try to get a hold of him and get the board info for if this happens again, (It happens about every five months) so that I can deal with things when they happen. Hopefully he'll respond to something I've sent him. :P


Edit:
Oh, and to sXi - Thank you!
