New Plesk server - require the host file entries

New server plesk is falling into place and I was told that it "requires entered host file" and to move forward and implement that.  I'm at a loss... ever been asked to do before when moving websites on new server.  Any help is most appreciated!

The mine has exactly two entries I have comment/Uncomment if necessary. What you have that is written to your hosts file?

You might have a phishing/spyware/adware blocker program, adding sites to block.

But you should make sure that it is not adware/spyware-phishing attacks that make writing.

  • VMware Workstation is unable to open one of the virtual disks required by this virtual machine because it is larger than the maximum file size supported by the host file system.

    I'm transitioning from Windows XP (64-bit) on a new computer with Windows 7 installed.  I undertook to VMWare Workstation 6 7.0.1 in the process.  The problem is with a very large RAID 5 volume on the new system.  It's a score of 5.45 TB (TPG and NTFS).

    When I try to start a virtual machine on this volume, I get the message "VMware Workstation cannot open one of the virtual disks required by this virtual machine because it is larger than the maximum size of the files supported by the host file system.".  This is obviously not true.  If I copy the virtual machine to another drive on the system, it starts without a problem.

    Anyone have any ideas on how to work around this problem?

  • Corrected the host file corrupted, now showing 2 host files in XP

    I have a corrupt host file and 2 host files have now for some reason any. What to do to fix this?

    After explaining all this several times, here are some notes:

    The hosts file is a read-only file, hidden system.  It is just a text file that you can manipulate with WordPad, Notepad or any text editor.  Before you modify the hosts file, make a copy of the current in case you need to restore the original.

    The hosts file is (or should be) a file read-only, which means that if change you it, you will not be able to save the changes until you remove the read only attribute of the file.

    You may be able to create a new one or reset your hosts with Microsoft Help file:

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/972034 (this does work as expected the last time I tried).

    If you use the Fix It from Microsoft, you will have no hosts file when you're done (which is not necessarily a bad thing) so you can just read and follow the instructions to find out how to fix it yourself.

    Some third-party software analysis tools (like Spybot) may add entries to the hosts file on purpose to block your browser from loading WWW websites completely or block ads from certain sites WWW.  They claim to have a list of sites that most of the people want to block and insert them into your file hosts for you.  You can always delete the entries in the hosts file manually if you wish.

    Another good option to block ads sites is to use Firefox with the Adblock Plus extension (it is updated regularly with new sites).  If you use that combination, you don't have to worry about your hosts file and these two together really do a good job.

    Malware can also add entries in the host file to redirect the browser to another site than the one you really want to visit WWW.

    For example, if you try to browse to www.google.com, you can find yourself on a WWW site that is inappropriate or simply an advertisement for a product you never heard and do not want.  Your browser will always be redirected away from www.google.com until correct you the hosts file.

    The malware can also modify your hosts file to block your browser to go to Web sites where you might find a solution for how to remove the malicious software.  The malware sometimes knows what you're going to try to find and remove, so it will prevent you to do so.

    If your hosts file has been manipulated by malware, edit the hosts file does not remove the malware.  You will still need to scan your system with software tools to make sure that the malware has entirely disappeared.

    Malware analysis tools can also remove the malicious software and leave the bad entries in the hosts file.  Analytical tools cannot tell if the entries in the file hosts were made on purpose or by malware you still may need to edit the file hosts manually in case of redirection of the browser once the malware has been removed.

    Some analytical tools will report changes to the hosts as a suspect file and allow you to review the changes and allow you to decide whether the changes are appropriate, and to take action.

    Sometimes, analytical tools cannot tell if the entries in the hosts file have been put there by malicious software or you put there on purpose so cannot do not report any problems with the hosts file.  This does not mean that the hosts file has not been adjusted by malicious software.

    A hosts file is not required for your browser to operate.  If you suspect a problem with the hosts file, you can rename the hosts file and test your browsing without it.

    Always reboot your system and the navigation test after making changes to the hosts file.

    To manipulate the hosts file, you need to make hidden files not hidden and remove the attribute only read the hosts file.

    In Explorer, navigate to the following folder (assuming that Windows is installed on your C drive):

    c:\Windows\system32\drivers\etc

    Click on tools. Of files, display options.  In advanced settings, enable (check) the box option for:

    Display the hidden files and folders

    Click OK.

    The hosts file has also no extension (for example, .exe or .doc) and it may be useful to also see the file extensions for all files in
    the folder.  While you adjust the display of folder options, bring up the file extensions.

    Click on tools, Options, view.  In advanced settings, clear (uncheck) the box:

    Hide extensions of known file types

    Click OK.

    Now the hosts file must be visible and you can also see the file extensions.

    Make a copy of the current hosts file and name the copy something he can remember so that you can find it later and cancel
    any change if the changes don't work or things get worse.

    The host file is usually a single reading, so to change it, you must remove the read-only attribute:

    Make a right-click the hosts file, properties, uncheck the box that says:

    Read-only

    Click OK.

    Now you can edit the hosts file with a text editor (Notepad, Wordpad).  Be sure to save the hosts file after any changes.

    You will need to decide what is in your hosts file.  The default hosts file has only one entry (and a lot of comments) so if you think that the hosts file are the part of your question, you can remove all but the default entry and save the file.

    Always reboot your system and the navigation test after making changes to the hosts file.

    You should make hosts read-only folder again when you are finished making changes.  Obviously some programs or malware do not pay attention to the attributes of a file read-only, but it is advisable for the host file to be unalterable.

    If you want to, reverse explore changes to hide system files and extensions of known file types.

    If you think your hosts file is irretrievably, replace the contents with the default values of Windows.

    The default for Windows XP hosts file looks like this:

    # Copyright (c) 1993-1999 Microsoft Corp.
    #
    # This is a sample HOSTS file used by Microsoft TCP/IP for Windows.
    #
    # This file contains the mappings of IP addresses to host names. Each
    # entry should be kept on an individual line. The IP address must
    # be placed in the first column, followed by the corresponding host name.
    # The IP address and the host name should be separated by at least one
    space #.
    #
    # In addition, comments (such as these) may be inserted on individual
    # lines or following the name of the machine indicated by a symbol "#".
    #
    # For example:
    #
    # 102.54.94.97 rhino.acme.com # source server
    # 38.25.63.10 x.acme.com # x client host

    127.0.0.1 localhost

    There are places on the Internet to download information to your hosts file which is based on what other people think your hosts file must block or allow for your Internet browsing.  Sometimes that works very well, but you now need to know more on the manipulation of the hosts file now so that you can decide what's best for your environment.

    Here's some additional reading on how to manipulate your hosts file:

  • Cannot start web server on the executable file

    Hello

    We have a problem with a Web server - we cannot get to initialize the help of nodes of property or the ini on a compiled executable file.

    As part of our application, we are starting the Web server to publish a status page to be read remotely. This works very well when we are running in the development environment and also when we run an executable a PC with installed development environment, however it will not boot on a PC with just the runtime installed.

    I have attached some of the code that functionally does exactly the same thing in our main application. I used this as my Tester code and built in an exe while trying a lot of different things to fix.

    When executing:

    • The code will sit in the while loop until I press stop.
    • Web server: Active Server = FALSE
    • Out error = ERROR No.

    In the full application the while loop waits a few seconds before throw an error if the server is not started. In this example, I can let the loop running for awhile without leave. Normally, the boot time is<50ms when="">

    It's the ini file to the executable file:

    [WebTest]
    server.app.propertiesEnabled = True
    Server.OLE.Enabled = True
    server.tcp.serviceName = "My Server computer/VI"
    server.vi.propertiesEnabled = True
    WebServer.Enabled = True
    WebServer.TcpAccess = "' + * '"
    WebServer.ViAccess = "' + * '"
    DebugServerEnabled = False
    DebugServerWaitOnLaunch = False

    And it is the Web server configuration file:

    ErrorLog "$LVSERVER_ROOT/logs/error.log".
    LogLevel 3
    The default server name
    DocumentRoot "$LVSERVER_ROOT /... /.. '. "/ www".
    Listen 8000
    ThreadLimit 10
    TypesConfig "$LVSERVER_ROOT/mime.types»
    DirectoryIndex index.html
    LoadModulePath "$LVSERVER_ROOT/modules '" $LVSERVER_ROOT/LVModules "" $LVSERVER_ROOT /... ".
    LoadModule LVAuth lvauthmodule
    LoadModule LVSnapshot lvsnapshotmodule
    LoadModule LVRFP lvrfpmodule
    LoadModule dir libdirModule
    LoadModule copy libcopyModule

    AddHandler LVAuthHandler
    AddHandler LVSnapshotHandler .snap
    AddHandler LVRFPHandler

    AddHandler dirHandler
    AddHandler copyHandler

    "CustomLog"$LVSERVER_ROOT/logs/access.log"'%%u %t \"%r\ hour' % > s %b.
    KeepAlive on
    KeepAliveTimeout 60
    Timeout 60

    As can side note, anyone tell me where the $LVSERVER_ROOT variable is configured?

    I tried the things:

    • Copy a new default configuration file before the entry into force
    • Writing a predefined file (encoded) before initializing config
    • Definition to root before initializing directory (it actually generates an error because the server is not active...)
    • Set WebServer.Active = TRUE several times inside the while loop
    • Toggle the web server in the ini file

    System:

    • LabVIEW 2010
    • PC with Windows 7 running

    Thanks for any help, because it makes me crazy slow!

    Ben

    Hi Marco, thanks for the reply.

    I have this guide was reviewed previously and had done all that he but a small section who gave me a hint of something to try and I have solved my problem, so thank you!

    If anyone is interested, here's the problem:

    The directive DocumentRoot folder in the config must exist or the Web server cannot be started. So basically, make sure that the file points to a folder that exists!

    This leaves two small annoying problems if - you can't see if the file exists (and then create it) before starting the Web server, because you can not query the path to the folder without the Web server running.

    AND

    You can't really define the configuration programmatically file as parameters from the file are responsible for execution, not on the start Web server.

    The result of this is that the config file and the folder root document should be created (and corresponding of course...) when the executable is built / installed on the system. Not a massive headache, but it means do not forget to put things in the build specification and do not rely on software to do the job at startup

  • How to edit the Hosts file?

    There are several ways to do so.  If you use the vCLI exposed the hosts file for editing, so you can download it to your PC for management, update the file and then upload it to your host - http://www.vm-help.com/esx/esx3i/esx_3i_rcli/vifs.php.  You can also activate the Mode (local or SSH access) Tech support and edit the file/etc/hosts directly.

    Note: you should not have to perform steps 1 through 8 to view the hosts file; the hosts file is visible even with these settings, the default value (for example, when files are hidden you should always see the hosts file), but you may have a spyware infection that has tried the hide and prevent changes in the host file (to prevent you from making corrections in the file which made spyware)
    assuming that you have made any customizations to this file, it should appear as the default value listed in this Microsoft article: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/972034

  • Why the hosts file is reset periodically?

    Hello, I would like to redirect an IP address to a localhost, but whenever something comes back the original contents of the hosts file.

    What can change my hosts file and how to make a constant change in it?

    Best regards
    Voronkov Konstantin

    Konstantin,

    I'm not familiar with VPNS modifying the file hosts as Brian suggested. Also, VPNS are a bit outside the scope of support here in answers and if you need more information about the VPN, I would recommend display in TechNet Windows Vista Networking:

    http://social.technet.Microsoft.com/forums/en-us/itprovistanetworking/threads

    From personal experience, I find some antivirus software will monitor and restore the hosts file. If the host file is always reset to 0, you can perform a clean boot, use the system and see if the file resets. If not, it means that something in startup is reset the hosts file and from there you can determine what startup item is causing the problem.

    Check out the link below for instructions to boot:

  • Modification of the Hosts file

    I'm trying to edit the file hosts on my laptop, but can't seem to find it in the usual place: c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc. Everything is in this folder are the following files:

    hosts. ICS
    LMHOSTS. Sam
    networks
    Protocol
    services

    Is there another location for the hosts file? I am running Windows 7 Home Premium (rel. 6.1.7601, service pack 1) on a 64-bit HP Pavilion dv7-1245dx laptop. The file 'hosts.ics' is the same as the [missing]? file "hosts"? Any help would be appreciated.

    The hosts.ics is a configuration file for Internet connection sharing. If you want to add the static IP mapping, you should now edit the file hosts , not the hosts.ics.

    There is really only one location for the file hosts . namely c:\Windows\System32\Drivers\Etc or % SYSTEMROOT%\System32\Drivers\Etc. make sure you have the Show hidden files folders and drives in Explorer, tools, folder, display, Advanced Settings Options.

    Start by clicking Start or tapping on the Windows key and typing notepad.exe , then hit Ctrl + Shift + Enter together or right click on the menu item start Notepad choosing run as administrator. Acknowledge the UAC warning and supply references if requested. This gives you the privileges that are required to modify the hosts file.

    Press Ctrl + O (aka file, open) and first of all to define the type of files to the list/save all the files in the lower right corner. Type or paste %SYSTEMROOT%\System32\Drivers\Etc in the file name: text box and hit Enter or click Open to quickly navigate to the etc folder.

    If you do not have a hosts file, create one with two lines.

    127.0.0.1 localhost
    : 1 localhost

    These are unnecessary, because the localhost name resolution is managed in the DNS, but it will help you get started. Add your static IP mapping lines as needed.

    When you save the file in Notepad, make sure the file type is set to all files or Notepad will add the file name .txt.
