[RESOLVED] VPS host question. Cannot open web page


Recommended Posts

OK I was in this hospital and was laid up for a week and my bill came due (Should paid all year in advance) :-) So within only 4 days they suspended my account. It is a self managed hosting plan so while my knowledge is intermediate on VPS I know enough to handle most issues.

Well they reactivated the service since we got that all straightened out but now when I pull up the site I cannot access it. My FTP and email works fine, When i look at the services running Apache is running. I ran command to restart Apache and rebooted the server. I can ping the domain but I cannot get the site to come up. This is not the best company and moving form them immediately but can someone tell me what else I should look at? I am getting the it is self managed VPS so we aren't accountable for anything garbage.

Any help would be great. My site has been down for 3 days now.

nslookup goes to correct IP on the domain

I pinged the domain and received a response back

it's something on the web service I think but apache is running so not sure the issue. I can FTP to the IP and domain and email is functioning

One other thing to add. I can get to subfolders and they will present. For instance I went to my domain/example.img and the image that was there presented itself in the browser. So I can get to folders through the browser but my home page is IP Content and all the other pieces of my site are IP board related, When they shut it down could they have broken something?

Could it be IP board related and something I need to fix? I wouldn't think shutting down hosting would cause this but I am not sure.

Note: I've learned what I've learned by personal experience, and do not claim to be a server expert.

I would start by looking at the apache conf file for the AddHandler and AddType lines. This may be in the main .conf file, or perhaps in something like /etc/httpd/conf.d/php.conf (CentOS default).

Here's are those lines from my php.conf in case it's useful (note that I may be using a different php handler than you):

LoadModule php5_module modules/libphp5.so

LoadModule php5_module modules/libphp5-zts.so

AddHandler php5-script .php

AddType text/html .php

mostly:

- take a look at your logs, esp error logs, for clues; look for log messages that occur when you try to view a php page

also:

- is php still installed?

- take a look at your apache config files to make sure everything looks right (as mentioned above)

- take a look at php.ini to make sure everything looks ok

Given your description, I'd contact your Host again and politely tell them that your VPS worked before they suspended/canceled it, and will they please get it working again as this is clearly not something you did to cause the problem, but rather something they did.
