Hey Jon,
I sent you a PM regarding changing my domain and nameservers. I hope you got it!

*waiting*

Thanks

All the notifications i recieve from vlexo go into SPAM. the email from which is comes is : admin@ghs.l.google.com>

what can be done?

I wish to host a mysql database on my account here and use the forum on a vps which I often use to test stuff.

I am using vbulletin. So, is remote myql from other host allowed here? can I connect to my database at vlexo from another host?

If so, what are the setting i would have to put in?


    //    ****** DATABASE TYPE ******
    //    This is the type of the database server on which your vBulletin database will be located.
    //    Valid options are mysql and mysqli, for slave support add _slave.  Try to use mysqli if you are using PHP 5 and MySQL 4.1+
    // for slave options just append _slave to your preferred database type.
$config['Database']['dbtype'] = 'mysql';

    //    ****** DATABASE NAME ******
    //    This is the name of the database where your vBulletin will be located.
    //    This must be created by your webhost.
$config['Database']['dbname'] = 'forum';

    //    ****** TABLE PREFIX ******
    //    Prefix that your vBulletin tables have in the database.
$config['Database']['tableprefix'] = '';


    //    ****** MASTER DATABASE SERVER NAME AND PORT ******
    //    This is the hostname or IP address and port of the database server.
    //    If you are unsure of what to put here, leave the default values.
$config['MasterServer']['servername'] = 'localhost';
$config['MasterServer']['port'] = 3306;

    //    ****** MASTER DATABASE USERNAME & PASSWORD ******
    //    This is the username and password you use to access MySQL.
    //    These must be obtained through your webhost.
$config['MasterServer']['username'] = 'root';
$config['MasterServer']['password'] = '';

    //    ****** MASTER DATABASE PERSISTENT CONNECTIONS ******
    //    This option allows you to turn persistent connections to MySQL on or off.
    //    The difference in performance is negligible for all but the largest boards.
    //    If you are unsure what this should be, leave it off. (0 = off; 1 = on)
$config['MasterServer']['usepconnect'] = 0;


thanks!

Some servers do not allow more than a set limit of database connections. Usually in the case of A LOT of users logging in on a forum etc face the problem of down time caused due the limited db connections. I have had a few friends hosted at hostmonster, hostgator etc, they all have only 50 simultaneous mysql connections (because they are hosted in shared enivronments and a re overselling to the max!). Now this can be a big problem with large forums! Especially if they want to invest in a Dedicated really soon.

So my question here is, How many DB connections does VLEXO allow?
Also any suggestion on where I can buy really cheap vps or dedicated servers.

thanks!

My domain is fidhost.info and I am unable to access it. in FTP it says "unable to resolve domain" and in the browser it shows page load error. Firefox can't find the server at www.fidhost.info. However I can acess it via the IP address.

I guess its a DNS issue. Because I can access it through a proxy well and fine.

How do i fix this problem?

Thanks.
