From Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/netsec/comments/4tfc4k/httpoxy_a_cgi_application_vulnerability_for_php/d5gtevj?context=3 https://httpoxy.org/ This is very easily to exploit, so i recommend everyone to mitigate it. Nginx: Add this to the fastcgi parameters: fastcgi_param HTTP_PROXY ""; Apache: Add this to the htaccess: <IfModule mod_headers.c> RequestHeader unset Proxy </IfModule> If you want to check if your site is vulnerably: Create a php file with the name httpoxy.php with this and put it on your public html: <?php if (isset($_SERVER['HTTP_PROXY']) && $_SERVER['HTTP_PROXY'] == 'v…

I am moving my site from www.fansfootballforum.com to www.myfootballforum.com but its not working properly on www.myfootballforum.com as you can see if you click the link. The domains are both on the same hosting package and are sub domains of my main domain. What settings will I see to change to get it working properly, I have only managed to edit conf_global.php with the domain www.myfootballforum.com. Many thanks

Slightly high server loads. Trying to dig in and see what's driving it and I find high cpu usage for php-fpm. Is this normal? What can cause this?

I'm migrating a site to IPS piece by piece. The first step is forum. I tested deployment on subdomain (like new.domain.com) and now stuck with configuration to launch in live on domain.com. All pages are loaded ok, but ajax requests are not. For instance on private messages page (domain.com/messenger) when I click on another message to view, I see this instead of message text: {"redirect":"http:\/\/domain.com\/?index.php?app=core&module=messaging&controller=messenger&csrfKey=afa0131d0145adbf2028d14a4b51a2a6&id=732&page=1","message":""} I have IPS 4.1.13.1 configured in docker container and the rest of site in host's apache. I have the…

I currently have a Forum installed on a centos 6 Box and would like to move it over to a Centos 7 machine. The issue I'm having is that the default version of php is 5.4 which you appear to have completely dropped support for. Red hat actually support all the software in the base repo for 10 years after release so to say it is unsupported isn't really true. I know a lot of people have said just pull later versions from the remi repo but i have had issues in the past where it will upgrade to a newer versions that break's apps as they relied on features that got deprecated. Remember Invision might not be the only thing running on the server. Is there anyw…

If you had a fairly active IPB site going onto a dedicated server with 2 drives, would you prefer to have high performance of raid 0 or data redundancy of raid 1? Assume space isn't an issue in either scenario. I know what these are so I am not looking for a definition of raid configuration. What I don't know is if realistically raid 1 in the real world is fast enough. Or if it's noticeably slower than raid 0. I don't want I/O issues but I also don't want data loss. Your opinions and thoughts please

Hi there, Just wondering if anyone has managed to get Invision Power to run successfully on Google App Engine PHP Runtime Environment? https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/php/ It is my understanding that you cannot write directly to Google App Engine environment, so in order to save files etc.. You would need to leverage Google Cloud Storage. Why do I want to use Google App Engine? 1. Scalability 2. Speed 3. Cheaper than my current host 4. Improved security ability to lock out admin section of site to specific users. 5. Works as a CDN, if 1 data center goes down your site is replicated on other servers. I've seen that Wordpress and Drupal can be run on App Engine but …

UGH so tired of messing around. The back end just isn't my thing. Anyone want to talk about getting me a working FTP directory and server setup so I can host my sites? Can pay money for admin skills.

Here are the parts I have and I don't know how to put them together so things correctly point to the right places A server with VestaCP running 2 domain names registered with Godaddy 1 IP address (came with the server mentioned above) Cloudflare Goal is to have both domains use same ip address and webserver will direct traffic to the correct public_html folder on server.

We upgraded our database to use MariaDB from MySQL on the recommendation of a few posters within this forum. I'm not a DB expert and the other day we looked at the my.cnf and found that there was nothing in it. So, basically we are running on a box standard install for our server. I would be pretty grateful if someone with a lot more knowledge on this subject would have a look at the MySQLTuner recommendations and give us a starting point to get us running a bit better. This is the MySqlTuner recommendations And since we're using Innodb: I thought I would use the innodb.cnf as a starting point? (If I am wrong, please feel free to let me know as I am…

Hello all, I have recently moved my forum to a dedicated server from a shared provider. Everything is going well when it comes to moving all my contents, however, i get an error after i have imported my database. I have attached a picture with error that i am getting. I also made sure that the mysql version i installed on the dedicated machine was newer than the one i was coming from. Any insight on this is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

CENTMIN MOD is incredible. Read about it: http://centminmod.com/ @Makoto created a great guide for installing LEMP Stack for use with IPS v3: https://community.invisionpower.com/topic/384522-how-to-set-up-a-secure-ipboard-installation-with-nginx-and-php-fpm/ LEMP = Linux, Nginx, MySQL, and PHP. LEMP Stack intro: https://lemp.io/ This thread isn't about installing the LEMP stack. If you use the CENTMIN MOD you can install an entire LEMP stack on your server with 1 line of code. You can check that out here: http://centminmod.com/download.html#method3 The CENTMIN MOD LEMP Stack isn't cPanel. It's not going to have fancy buttons for you to press w…

I have been trying for several months now to migrate my site successfully to a new host. I've followed all the guides and everything usually looks like it's gone correctly...until I start to dig deeper. A site that is meant to have 100K+ posts on it is only showing about 10K of them, meaning a lot of info is getting lost on the way over and I'm unsure how to fix it. I obviously don't want to lose everything so could someone point me in the right direction or can someone help me? I'm running 3.4.6 and wish to stay on it. I don't want to upgrade to 4.

I'm on the hunt for a new server, not looking for company recommendations as that would be naughty with IPS selling their own hosting and I know who I'm going with, I'm just looking for a little advice on what I should be purchasing. My forum will be pretty much be stock with just 2 plugins to show ads after x topics and x posts. We have roughly 1.5m page views per month and on average 200 people online, maybe 80 of which will be members. We do hit around 600/800 on a matchday (football forum) with 150 members. We're approaching 1m posts, with 5729 members. Not looking to scrape through with minimum requirements, I'd like the site to run comfortably without brea…

Some reason during my transfer to IP.Board 4.x I have several posts that are listed under dennis-56 and others listed as just dennis which is correct. Does anyone know of a MySQL search and replace type feature (find dennis-56 and replace with dennis) to help clean up my site? Of course this is just an example, I have several instances of this same thing that happened and would like to fix the whole site but figured if I could get some help fixing dennis I could fix the rest using the same example.

Hi Many users are using .htaccess files with some rules inside and they try to get high performance. Others are trying to adjust .htaccess files on Nginx web servers... Well .htaccess is killing your performance what ever rules are you using and Nginx is NOT read that files at all ! .htaccess to work Apache needs to check EVERY directory in the requested path for the existence of a .htaccess file and if it exists it reads EVERY one of them and parses it. This happens for EVERY request. Remember that the second you change that file, it’s effective. This is because Apache reads it every time. Numbers http://example.com/site/files/images/layo…

Since PHP 5.5 was very close to its end of life and the VPS my site is running on had CentOS 5.11 with cPanel which did not support PHP 5.6, I had to move to a new one with newer OS . The new server has CentOS 6.7 x64, 2GB 2 CPU, 60 GB disk, Apache 2.4.18 PHP 5.6.21 and MySQL 5.6.30 . The previous server was checked by @ASTRAPI and although I tried to pass all of the configurations to the new one, I have seen that the Time to First Byte for New Content Stream is rather big. Here are the results of the latest test I have done. Running mysqltuner.pl had only one warning which was to increase join_buffer_size like ; join_buffer_size (> 6.0M, or always…
