Counted. Thanks for the feedback.

For people who want to vote for features you can just reply to this thread, and then I'll edit the second post.

When it's your turn to be moved to Plesk you will receive an email with a link to indicate that you want to be moved immediately, or if you want to wait. So keep an eye on your inbox. We'll use this post to keep track of the votes for requested features: 7 java 6 flask 2 django 0 ruby on rails

Happy Easter everyone! If you're not familiar with Christianity the meaning of Easter is to celebrate the resurrection of Jesus after his death by crucifixion. Therefore, I think this is a fitting day to celebrate the resurrection of HelioHost as well. Last year we were surprised to learn that our cPanel licenses that we've been using for 16 years were revoked and they tried to extort us for over $17,000 which we obviously can't afford because we provide free hosting. We quickly made a new partnership with Plesk instead, and began trying to upgrade our servers to use the new control panel. Clearly there have been a lot of issues since then, and unfortunately the work still isn't fully complete. This process has already taken an unacceptably long time so we've decided that the time is long overdue to start moving accounts to the new control panel. Since not all of our services are currently available on the new server we will be giving each user a choice whether they want to move now, or continue to stay on the broken cPanel for a while longer. For instance Java, Django, Flask, and some other things aren't available on Plesk yet, but we do plan to add support eventually. If you have questions about what is or is not available feel free to ask on the forums in this news post. You can check your place in line to be moved at https://www.heliohost.org/eta/ or improve your position with a donation if you wish to. If there is a feature that you need on Plesk for your website to function please let us know so we can prioritize the features that the most number of people need. Part of this decision to start moving accounts is due to Johnny being taken offline. We will be monitoring the load on the new Plesk server, and as long as we have space to fit more websites we will be upgrading existing Johnny and Ricky accounts to Tommy for free for being so patient during this excessively long upgrade process. Once we have all the existing accounts taken care of we will open new registrations as well. If you have any questions feel free to ask. Thanks for being a HelioHost user.

Last night and this morning we noticed quite a few accounts on Johnny got hacked and various phishing websites and illegal content was uploaded to their websites. Normally our policy when an account gets hacked is we suspend the affected account and create a new account for the user, but since it's not currently possible to create new accounts on cPanel we'll have to wait for Plesk to be ready before we'll be able to create new free hosting accounts. Since so many accounts were affected we decided to just power off Johnny entirely rather than try to sort through all of it. As a reminder you can download your full backup from https://www.heliohost.org/backup/ If you need any help downloading your backup let us know. If you need your website to be online prior to Johnny being rebuilt with Plesk we do offer VPS hosting https://www.heliohost.org/vps/ which is available immediately starting at $4 USD per month. We can transfer any of your heliohost.us or heliohost.org domains to the VPS to keep your website online, and then when Plesk is ready you can move back to the free hosting if you want to. If you're not familiar with VPS or SSH we can install Hestia control panel and import your Johnny account for you at no additional cost. There is currently no ETA on when Plesk will be available on Johnny.

Yes, you can modify your files by uploading them through SFTP. Any changes you make will be copied over to the Plesk server at the time of the transfer.

Yep, that's the exact command I've used to generate certificates and it works fine.

This is what I use on windows. https://github.com/do-know/Crypt-LE/releases You just run the le64.exe program on the command line and then use SFTP to copy/paste in the text for the file it gives you. It's fairly easy and you can use it forever for free.

No, your hosting account on Johnny should be working the same as it ever has minus the ability to log in to cPanel, and email probably doesn't work either. If you're having trouble please start a new post in customer service rather than this news post.

I have been. I trained up Yash as a VPS admin so I wouldn't be the only person handling all the VPS stuff. Opening volunteer positions actually take more of my time up front because I have to do all the work plus I have to do the work of training someone new, but in the long run it ends up being less work for me once they're fully trained.

If you can't do a subscription you can still make a one-time payment for a VPS, but you have to do a 6 month plan instead of a month to month plan. The good news is you also get a 10% discount for paying for 6 months up front so it ends up being $3.60 per month instead of $4.00 for the Mercury VPS. The reason we can't do one-time payments for only a month is it's a lot of extra work for the staff to have to manually verify payments, and I don't want to have to manually verify 80+ payments each month. If you're able to do a subscription then it is zero work for our staff because the system automatically updates the expiration date each month. If this sounds good to you go to https://paypal.me/heliohost and then click Send and type in $21.60, and once the transaction goes through post the transaction ID here.

Personal medical issues plus my dad nearly dying in a car crash have delayed the process a bit. I'm still working on it though. Both my dad and I are doing fine, but dealing with all this is taking up most of my free time right now. I hope to have more free time when my dad can drive himself around in a week or so, and isn't on so many pain medications, and doesn't need to see so many doctors, etc. Thanks for checking in, and not giving up.
