I installed Phpmyadmin, and MySQL, and apache. For some reason, my phpmyadmin did not respond to MySQL for some reason, they didn't connect. Now; Phpmyadmin does not respond at all. I have tried uninistalling Phpmyadmin but it is the same result of 403 Forbidden. Should I just suggest a reinstall of the OS?

Hello everyone,

I was reading another support topic on the forum today and again the big question popped up in my mind. I have been asking this question myself several times whenever I have seen so many of the support topics here and on other sites.

Why and how is it that people cannot be bothered to provide some basic but crucial information? Like why don't they bother to provide the used OS? AND WHY do all of them basically ignore support guidelines (where it might even be mentioned to include the OS and other information)? This second question is just a cherry on the cake. At FreeVPS we made some clear support guidelines to be able to provide proper, accurate and fast support. No one absolutely bothered to follow them (excluding people here that actually always opened proper support topics already since day one).

This basic information are very much necessary. They improve how support is given. The quality of provided support and solution does kind of depend on them, too.

Example: If there is some kind of issue with a package installation (e.g. SSH) and no OS information is provided but simply the package manager output. Now the package manager as can be seen there is apt. Without the OS though this information is not really helpful. There are so many OSs using apt as their package manager. And in this very specific example that bases on a real support topic here, the user has been using Ubuntu (information was provided in a later post after it was asked for). So after that, the error message from the package manager + OS has lead to an instant reason for the issue and a solution after only a few minutes of research.

That's the thing I'm talking about. If the user had initially provided the OS already... I wouldn't need to ask for this information and could have already found a (possible) reason and (maybe) the right solution.

There is also other information that can be helpful (depending on the case though). And I had run ins with users... where I asked for this information and the user kept evading my request... Guess what! It took several days and many replies until the issue was solved because they simply couldn't provide the requested information and kept telling me something totally different is the issue. In the end... I end up actually looking into the issue on there server MYSELF and in 99% of the case IT IS EXACTLY as I thought it was.

If people think that I or others do this just as a hobby and with little knowledge... Well, I don't. It's my profession and I know from real life experience and hard work that this crucial information can be a game changer. Honestly I can't stand people who open tickets sometimes and provide little information or open oneliner topics without any information at all. I'm thinkful for all posted error messages though. Stuff like "I can't start <service name> on my server" is NOT HELPFUL!

So I ask myself the big (overall) question: What's wrong with the people?

I'm looking for the answer.

Gamers need to talk to their teammates or friends while playing.

And I have suggested 2 good software to talk about. Which one of these software is better?

Dicsord - Team Speak 3

My opinion: team speak 3 I think the team speak 3 software consumes less traffic. Compared to the discord of course ...
what is your opinion?

My command and errors:

Code:
root@berbidserver:~# sudo apt-get install libxml-parser-perl libpath-class-perl perl-modules screen rsync sudo e2fsprogs unzip subversion pure-ftpd libarchive-zip-perl libc6 libgcc1 git curl

Reading package lists... Done

Building dependency tree

Reading state information... Done

Package libpath-class-perl is not available, but is referred to by another package.

This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or

is only available from another source

E: Package 'libpath-class-perl' has no installation candidate

E: Unable to locate package pure-ftpd

I used sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get upgrade to fix this issue but it didn't work out.

As the title says I would like to suggest to improve our VPS plan page with a ComboBox* for each VPS plan that lists every OS available for the interested plan.
For example when I got my OpenVZ VPS I requested a OS that wasn't available, so on the VPS was installed the latest available Os that could match my request but it didn't work for me and I had to open a ticket.
This solution can help us to choose a VPS also regarding the available OS and prevent Support Ticket to request a change of OS, like mine.
This feedback should work over OpenVZ and no-panel VPSes, VPS with a dedicated panel doesn't need any information because the user will already know what it is available.
* ComboBox is the formal name of a interface component that on raw HTML we can refer so the <select></select> tag. I don't know if MyBB introduces a sort of better implementation such as "drop-down" elements.

Hello everyone

I would like to share a very handy service with you that comes in as very useful when working in terminal only environments like a Linux server.

TermBin is a service that allows you to paste/upload content of text files or clear text files (scripts, logs, etc...) from your terminal to the Internet to share it with others. This is very handy when you have a issue and want to share error messages, log files and etc with others. Of course you can create a screenshot or paste the error or logs into a file, download it and then share the file. But why all of this? TerminBin makes all of these things unnecessary.

URL: https://termbin.com/

All you need on your server to use this service is the netcat client. This can be easily installed through the package manager of your Linux distribution. After that you can use already builtin commands to paste single lines or content from files straight to TerminBin. You will get a link back to view the paste online and share it.

The paste that you create is available for one month and will be deleted after that. Of course you shouldn't paste information that violates privacy laws or exposes you or your server to a security risk.

A short how to use from the TermBin page.

Pasting something (e.g. a small line of text) via echo:

Code:
echo just testing!  | nc termbin.com 9999

Pasting a whole file:

Code:
cat ~/some_file.txt | nc termbin.com 9999

Pasting the result of a command (example with ls command):

Code:
ls -la | nc termbin.com 9999

In my honest opinion this is a very great service and I would even like to host such a service myself. Popular sites like pastebin.com don't offer such a service! This needs to be way more popular.

I am using a CWP on my vps, and yesterday it updates and broke all my sites.
Suddenly CWP thinks php switcher is a pro feature and they included to their pro subscription. So I am using this free feature and now suddenly all my sires are showing 502 error.
It is because the PHP-FPM is also a paid feature now. And to fix it you need to take the CWP pro.
I am thinking to make my move to other free control panels. Hopefully, VestaCP will work.
Here is my post in CWP forum.
Ahh! at the time of writing they just deleted my account and post from the forum. What a shame.

Hello Post4VPS team,

Howdy y'all? I was just going through the list of VPS holders and found this mismatch.

For VPS 6, it says '1 in stock', however, we have two VPS 6 holders - @youssefbasha and @Rzarcasm. Please check the following screenshot: http://s000.tinyupload.com/index.php?fil...3132189348

I thought it would be best to report this to you and so here I am. Kindly check and update it.

Regards,
