Okay, the help desk just told me to go through the Web Shell wizard again. This time it worked. There was an .htaccess in the directory the first time through and I deleted it before this second time. So, maybe it failed because of that file. Anyway, it's working now. Thanks, Tim

I opened a ticket.

The error log tells me that the problem is the path to the .htpasswd file. I've tried: /hsphere/local/home/user_name/.htpasswd /hsphere/home/user_name/.htpasswd /hshome/user_name/.htpasswd /home/user_name/.htpasswd /.htpasswd (phpinfo() says the first is correct, but it's not working...

I tried using Webshell to password protect a directory. It seems to have created all the appropriate files, but I just get a '500 Internal Server Error' when I try accessing the directory. This is what was generated: .htaccess in the protected directory AuthType Basic AuthName...

Why not just use an autonumber field type and let MySQL do this for you? I'm guessing you're trying to use this field as a unique ID or counter, right. Right? If so, in general it's best to rely on the DB or use some sort of stored procedure. Doing it in PHP as you're trying will fail in a...

For anyone who looks at this thread, the resolution was that this was simply a misunderstanding of the capabilities of the list management software. It will add trailers to just text-only emails. My client was sending HTML (formatted Outlook) emails to the list. Tim

Thanks Akshay. Ticket BVW-16583-129 just submitted. Tim

A client tells me that he's tried to add trailers to his listservs and they're not showing up. I gave a look in the CP but I don't see anything particularly wrong with his list configuration. Are they supposed to work? This is on a cluster 1 site on web15. Thanks, Tim

I found that [email protected] is the sort of dead-letter bin I was looking for. Mail sent to it is simply discarded. Tim

Thanks. I was hoping some part of RFC 2606 included email. But, I guess that would mean they'd have to deal with handling the volume of incoming mail traffic, even if it were routed to dev/null. http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc2606.txt Tim

Is there such a thing as an Internet standard "dead letter bin" email address? I mean, something that when you send an email to the message is sent without a bounce error but just deleted at the receiving end. I figured there'd be something like that at the example.com domain. But my messages...

Make sure also that your client has updated all of his Adobe products: Flash, Acrobat Reader, etc. There are published weaknesses in various versions of those products that enable a hacker to remotely gather passwords. There are lots of good, free antivirus apps. Stephen mentioned one, check out...

@Sailor, I've migrated Joomla sites from other hosts to JodoHost before without issues. Go with Linux, definitely. As for database issues, make sure the existing host isn't running a newer version of MySQL than your account here. If it is, when you do the DB export, use the compatibility option...

I guess the better way to have asked is "Does this mean that a MySQL 5 server is available to all accounts, even older accounts on old cluster 1 servers?" I see now that creating a new database on one of those old servers does indeed put it on a newer MySQL server. I didn't check the version...

So all JodoHost MySQL servers are now running version 5? Even old cluster 1 servers? I don't recall such an announcement and a quick search here comes up empty. Thanks, Tim

I'd swear I have done this sort of thing in PHP-based pages. Something like: $query = "SELECT * FROM table WHERE date > '".$lower_date."' AND date < '".$upper_date."'"; Where $lower_date/$upper_date are a datestring to match the format stored in your database (perhaps created with...

Late response but I hope it's still helpful. The open source phpList newsletter system will automatically manage bounced emails. You set up a special mailbox to receive the bounce messages. Then, you configure the program to scan that box. You can set it to remove recipients after X number of...

Oops, I found the HSphere Redirect spot. I've set that. This was the script I was going to use in case someone else finds it useful: <?php function redirect($url) { if (!headers_sent()) { // If headers not sent yet... then do php redirect header('Location: '.$url); exit...

If this is something I can do through HSphere, I don't see how. I won't go messing with custom DNS. I'm just going to go the PHP redirect route. Thanks, Tim
