Here is the script which allows you to include the login script anywhere and still catch incorrect logins and redirect them to your website.

Hope this helps someone.

Code: dpcpanellogin.php
Code: include_anywhere.php

Just include the code in include_anywhere.php inside your page and place the docpanellogin.php file in the same directory. The rest should work

The reason why this script was written was because we have too many servers and its very hard to come back each time to the script and insert the new server name. Instead here we just take the domain from the user. Anyone who wants to embed the domain name should replace the following lines from include_anywhere.php

Code:

input name=”domain” type=”text” value=”"

and replace with

Code:

input name=”domain” type=”hidden” value=”YOUR_SERVER_NAME”

replacing the “YOUR_SERVER_NAME” with your server name. (I haven’t test this part but it should work )

1) Make sure you’re running Perl 5.8.8:

a) check perl -v to make sure it says 5.8.8

b) if you see 5.8.7 or something else, follow these steps:

1) wget http://layer1.cpanel.net/perl588installer.tar.gz
2) tar xfvz perl588installer.tar.gz
3) cd perl588installer
4) ./install
5) /usr/local/cpanel/bin/checkperlmodules

2) Upgrade YAML::Syck and File::Copy::Recursive:
1) /scripts/realperlinstaller YAML::Syck
2) /scripts/realperlinstaller File::Copy::Recursive

3) Remove any SARE/openprotect spamassassin rules

These seem to be not compatible with SpamAssassin v3.2 see This Thread for more info.

4) Upgrade from mbox to maildir.

This can be done by running /scripts/convert2maildir.

WARNING: Make sure to run the option to back up your mail first. IMAP must be enabled in the Service Manager before running this script!!

When running the conversion, you should watch out for the following:

**IT WILL TAKE A LONG TIME. Don’t kill the process or you’ll be left with a lot of half-converted mailboxes and angry clients who aren’t getting mail.

**Mail will not be delivered during the conversion, it will be instead queued until the conversion is complete and then delivered.

**Make sure your mailbox permissions are ok before converting and make sure your clients aren’t currently using mailboxes called /cur /new or /tmp

***NOTE: For users using POP accounts, converted messages will appear as new and will download twice. Users should re-download their messages after the conversion completes.

The LoadFile directive links in the named object files or libraries when the server is started or restarted; this is used to load additional code which may be required for some module to work. Filename is either an absolute path or relative to ServerRoot.

example:

LoadFile libexec/libxmlparse.so 

or

LoadFile modules/libxmlparse.so

For add modules:

The server can have modules compiled in which are not actively in use. This directive can be used to enable the use of those modules. The server comes with a pre-loaded list of active modules; this list can be cleared with the ClearModuleList directive.

For example:

AddModule mod_include.c

If you are facing some problem while sending email to yahoo server then you can try following solution for it. Installing DomainKeys can help your server deliver “clean” emails directly to your user’s inbox. Ref : for more details

Installation is simple and it’s done on a domain basis.

How to install DomainKeys on a specific domain.

1. First check that you are running the latest version on RELEASE or CURRENT of cPanel 11.
2. Run the script

/usr/local/cpanel/bin/domain_keys_installer username

Where username is the cPanel user.

If you want to install it for all the domains (users) then you can try this.
for i in `ls /var/cpanel/users` ;do /usr/local/cpanel/bin/domain_keys_installer $i ;done

If you are getting

php: /usr/lib/libmysqlclient.so.14: version `libmysqlclient_14′ not found (required by php)

Rebuild your php.
/scripts/easyapache
/scripts/mysqlup –force

That should solve your problem.

That seems to be a common suggestion, but I fail to see how it could ever fix it as the PHP in question being used is cPanel’s backend PHP and not the one used with Apache. At any rate, I caught a lucky break; I replaced /usr/lib/mysql/libmysqlclient.so.14 with /usr/lib/cpanel/libmysqlclient.so.14, re-ran ldconfig, and now it’s working. It hasn’t seemed to have any adverse effect on anything so who knows what the problem is with the one supplied in /usr/lib/mysql.

it sounds like you may be missing mysql-devel.
try “yum install mysql-devel”. That should install any missing mysql libraries.

Cheers!

If you have Fedora Core 5/6 or CentOS 5 or Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 on your server and are experiencing troubles with respect to upgrades (forced or otherwise) of Click Be! or Fantastico or Universina, please check the wget version that you have on your server.

If it is wget-1.10.2-3.3.fc5 or wget-1.10.2-7.el5 or wget-1.10.2-8.fc6.1, we suggest that you replace it immediately with an older and/or stabler version. This version does not honor the “-P” switch.

An alternate version that we suggest is wget-1.10.2-3.2.1

You can use the following commands for this purpose:

Code:

rpm -qa wget ;
wget http://fedora.osmirror.nl/core/development/i386/Fedora/RPMS/wget-1.10.2-3.2.1.i386.rpm ;
rpm -e wget ;
rpm -ivh --force wget-1.10.2-3.2.1.i386.rpm ;
rpm -qa wget ;

Note: You must execute the commands shown above as root.

You will also want to put wget on /etc/yum.conf’s exclude= line so the OS doesn’t automatically reinstall the buggy version.

Reports suggest that the version of wget included with Fedora Core 7 does not have this problem, so that may be a better option for some people.

The general idea is to package up the account on the old server using */scripts/pkgacct* and then restore on the new server with */scripts/restorepkg*. This can get laborious when there are many accounts, so the easiest way to do this is to setup passwordless ssh and then do this for all accounts.

Passwordless SSH

On the old server, run

ssh-keygen -t dsa or
ssh-keygen -t rsa

Just hit enter for the password. Then copy the public key to /root/.ssh/known_hosts on the new server

NEWSERVER=new_server_ip_here
scp /root/.ssh/id_dsa.pub $NEWSERVER:/tmp
ssh $NEWSERVER “cat /tmp/id_dsa.pub >> /root/.ssh/authorized_keys && rm -f /tmp/id_dsa.pub”

Now you should be able to ssh without a password.

The Transfer

You can create a file containing select accounts you want to transfer, or do them all. Here is how you can do them all
vi transfer

for acct in user1 user2 user3; do echo transferring $acct; /scripts/pkgacct $acct; scp /home/cpmove-$acct.tar.gz $NEWSERVER_IP_HERE:/home/; ssh $NEWSERVER_IP_HERE “/scripts/restorepkg $acct;”; rm -fr /home/cpmove-$acct.tar.gz; done > /tmp/transfer.log 2>&1 &

chmod 755 transfer
./transfer

tail -f /tmp/transfer.log

Greetings,

Recently the  cPanel version get upgraded to 11, some peoples are facing problems with starting apache on new installation.

The error reported is :

Invalid command ‘BytesLog’, perhaps mis-spelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration
/usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl start: httpd could not be started

To fix this mod_log_bytes.c needs to be re-compiled.

cd /usr/local/cpanel/apache
/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs -iac mod_log_bytes.c

Then restart the apache. It will be fine.

Cheers..!!

Shane.

Greetings,

If you are restarting named and gettting few errors related to below.

chattr: Inappropriate ioctl for device while reading flags on /var/named/chroot/proc/28458/loginuid
Starting named: [FAILED]

If you are getting this message on the server while restarting named service then run following commands :-

cd /var/named/chroot/etc
chown named.named named.conf
chown named.named rndc.key
chown named.named rndc.conf

You need to assign ownership of named to the named configuration file and rndc configuration as well as key file. run /scripts/fixndc after this and rndc will reload to fix this problem and named will get started. you can restart named service manually if you dont have cpanel on the server.

Cheers..!!

Arpan.

Dude,

Check your mysql is down..Restart mysql..

Cheers..!!
