Hello All, I am using TCH brillaint AW stats external viewing package, the one where you edit the config, upload the entire "stats" folder to the public_html directory but then when I log in, i get stuck with this error: This runs ok on another site and AWstats runs fine as it is, so I am not sure what I have done wrong, and having worked to many 12 hour shifts in the last week, my brain has also stopped thinking Thanks for having a think for me! Jimuni

Hey All, TCH-Andy is, like all the staff here at TCH, on the ball. A duplication in the exact file mentioned above was causing the doubling up, a simple ticket solved the issue and now I can count again :-) Many thanks all and it just goes to prove that TCH is still the best there is! Jimuni

Hello All *waves to all at tch*, I decided to login into cpanel earlier and got a bit of a shock, either that, or I can't add up. I have started a support ticket about this, but thought that when I do get an outcome that I will share this with other users to prevent further support tickets! My CPANEL first page login tells me that my current bandwidth say is at 12 gig. Fair enough My CPANEL bandwidth page tells me also that I am using 12 gig. Again fair enough. (I have a sub-domain which uses about 10 gig, which is where the problems start) Clicking on the subdomain from the bandwidth page now gives me two coloumns of figures. However, each column is only 1/2 of the correct amount, the total being only 5 gig (10 gig if i added both together but since "All traffic" and "http traffic" are the same amount, i assume that these columns do not add together. Check the AWSTATS for that subdomain and it agrees with the single column bandwidth, that I am indeed using only 5 gig So, now I am very confused. Am i really using the 10 gig for the forum, is it only 5 and somewhere, something is doubling it up? I know that i am not being hotlinked, or anything like that (it still shows up in your awstats from what I can remember) Anyone else got/had/suffered this? Thanks all Jimuni!

Hello All, Long time no see, been hard at work, so hard I have forgotten a few things that I learnt whilst here, anyway, I hope you can help I own two domain names, one is quite happy with TCH but I want to point another domain name to the root. I believe this is acceptable under the AUP. The question then comes, can I have an email address(s) for this NEW domain name? e.g. I have www.ignorethis.com with tch I want to point www.pleaseignorethis2.com to the same root directory I then want to create an email address like: mail1@pleaseignorethis2.com mail2@pleaseignorethis2.com As well as all my normal mail1@ignorethis.com Is it possible or not? Thanks and a merry xmas to you all Jimuni

Hello, I have been running phpBB flawless on server 5 for ages. This morning i am confronted with header and footer errors due to the database not being able to save ok. Now is this a phpBB error that has manifested itself or is the server having a tantrum? Jimuni

Hey, fixed it already! Here it is for anyone else: ><?php /* Start of PHP3 Script */ /* Data of SQL-server */ /* $server= ""; */ /* Not needed in this script*/ $dbhost = 'localhost'; /* I need this instead!*/ $user= "xxx"; /* Database username */ $password= "xxx"; /* Database Password */ $database= "xxx"; /* name of database */ $table= "phpBB_sessions"; /* Name of table */ /* Accessing SQL-Server and emptying table */ MYSQL_CONNECT($dbhost, $user, $password) or die ( "<H3>Server unreachable</H3>"); MYSQL_SELECT_DB($database) or die ( "<H3>Database non existent</H3>"); $result=MYSQL_QUERY( "Empty TABLE $table"); echo "<H1>Table was Emptied successfully</H1>"; /* Close SQL-Connection */ MYSQL_CLOSE(); ?> Now off to work out the crontab line! Bugman

Would this be it? ><?php /* Start of PHP3 Script */ /* Data of SQL-server */ $server= "www.xxxx.com"; /* Address of my server */ $user= "xxxxxx"; /* Database username */ $password= "yyyyyyy"; /* Database Password */ $database= "dbxxxxxx"; /* name of database */ $table= "phpBB_sessions"; /* Name of table */ /* Accessing SQL-Server and emptying table */ MYSQL_CONNECT($server, $user, $password) or die ( "<H3>Server unreachable</H3>"); MYSQL_SELECT_DB($database) or die ( "<H3>Database non existent</H3>"); $result=MYSQL_QUERY( "Empty TABLE $table"); echo "<H1>Table was deleted successfully</H1>"; /* Close SQL-Connection */ MYSQL_CLOSE(); ?> Jimuni

Hello, I need a cronjob.php script that will connect to mysql database and empty phpbb_sessions (not drop it, just empty it!) Anyone know what i would need in the cronjob.php bit? And then the line to enter into cronjob on cpanel? Thanks *waves to all his old friends* Jimuni

Hello, I need to make a list in a text notepad kind of style of all the files in a folder/directory on the server, is there anyway to do this? Jimuni *waves to all TCH staff and wishes them a merry xmas and a new year*

Please do explain more :-)

Hello, I need to do the following every day, basically i need it to backupmy phpBB database, but then to copy the data into another (on the same website/cpanel) database, but not overwrite any existing data, just update the data. Make sense? (E.g. say i have post 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 on the existing database, i back this up, and then transfer it to the other database which only has post 1 and 2 in, it basically doesnt overwrite this, but fills in the rest!) Any ideas anybody? Thanks Jimuni *waves to all TCH staff*

Hello, After trying all of them, phpBB is my favourtite. There is better support from both the original developers and many fanatics aside, hundreds of mods and templates and the actually coding is pretty easy to understand. With phpBB 2.2 nearing completion it sure to strengthern there product. Jimuni

Hello, Of all the things I know about htaccess, this is my most probalmatic one. Basically, my domain when acccessed is www.**** which has the index.html file as its first file. However, i want to change this to be say indexa.html Now, i need to use .htaccess to do this, because I am working on an upgrade and hence i need the index.html page still to be present but accessible yet not the default page. However, if I use DirectoryIndex indexa.html, all the folders below the main root change to this too. How can i set it for only the top folder? Jimuni

Always always close tags, leaving them open is like dropping litter! (and when your doing coding, closing tags means its one less headache to have when it all goes wrong!) Jimuni

This is the best way to do it and what I have done. Note though that if you delete the sub domain, you will still need to delete the folder manually as it wasn't cpanel which created the folder in the first place! (Cpanel will delete a subdomain folder if it creates it itself) Jimuni

Hello, Title says it all, do the pre-existing customers (i am nearly 1.5 years and love it!) have the accounts upgraded for this double space/bandwidth? Thanks Jimuni, old guru

Hello, Are the commands, exec() and set_time_limit() disabled on server 5? Thanks guys Jim

Hello Guys, Been busy with my new job, but have found this handy download, just upload it to your website and then if your at work and can't access your cpanel, but desperately need to use phpmyadmin or access your database because of some reason, you can just access it using this! Its excellant! Back to work Jim

Hi Guys, How I miss the old days working for you! To anyone who is wondering, Bill and the team are THE best to work for! ( I know because I have worked for them), what else do you expect from the Best web hosting company on the net? Jim

Hi, Even in IE I get that "clock" is undefined" I would generate a new page with just the menu in it and work from there. Jim

As a seperate note, are you sure it has a virus in? The servers stop viruses coming through, so if you think you have a virus in your email, contact the help desk and one of the Techs will be able to sort you out Jim

Hi, This is a email which is basically some form of spam, or in your case, carries a virus. You can see it here: >FROM: "MS Corporation Technical Services" <xpgfdfswpmvo@newsletters_msn.com> TO: "MS Customer" <ojmux.ujoosr@newsletters_msn.com> As you can see, the "from" bit, is basically rubbish as its a newsletters_msn which is no doubt, a bogus .com name brought by someone else. The fact they sent it to themselves, and yet everyone else is not visible, is done via BCC (blank carbon copy) meaning no one else can see who is on the list, another trick used by people sending out mass email. Other tail tell signs are: >mail.libertysurf.net Which indicates a possible ISP or webhosting company. If you look at a real msn email or if your very lucky, a real microsoft email (they rarely get sent to anyone outside their own corporation with microsoft.com stuck on the end) you will see correct endings. Also if you trace the ip address, it does not end up in Bill Gates back yard Blocking certain sizes? Hmmm not sure. Jim

I dont like ads either, but: How much do you earn per click? Is it one click per $1 for 100 per $1 Can anyone tell me? Thanks Jim
