I am also new here. Have you all had your accounts activated yet? How long did it take to get them approved?

when exactly does the time come usually when djbob feels like it then... been trying to log in everyday and still not getting onto my site...

just created a new account with heliohost at the start of this week but as of yet have been unable 2 sign into it? any ideas? how long does it usually take 2 b activated?

okay found out how to get to my cpanel but cant seem to login to it. is it not just the same as the login details i use 2 get on to here?

hi. ive not been using my account here for a while now and i think all my stuff has been deleted or something... cant seem to log into my cpanel anymore. how do i get there again?

fantastic. i knew there would be some simple method of obtaining the files on the server. thanks guys

just a quickie. is there anyway to download the files that have been uploaded to the server. i keep a copy of them on my hard drive once i upload them but they get modified and changed and so forth once they are up so apart from changing the local copies ever time i change something which can sometimes be time consuming is there any way i can just copy them from the server to update my local copies??

was fixed yesterday but today i try to upload som e files and then i get blocked form accessing my cpanel. grrr :angry: hopefully this will all be resolved when we switch over to a new server. can someone please sort out the diskspace problem before then please??

well it would seem like the problem has persisted after all. i was able to log into my cpanel but as soon as i clicked on file manager i was then blocked from going any further by the server it would seem and was greeted by the same error message i got last time... so im back to where i was 2 days ago. any ideas???? oh yeah my user name on the server is mrsleepy.

are you familiar with cgi programming with perl? if so can you not use the environmental variables functions on perl to list the server information on your screen then find the appropriate info form that page? if you dont know then i can upload a page here that you might be able to use.

no i just checked that out first thing this morning and i managed to log in again with no problem. strange thing is that even though i couldn' t log in to my cpanel all the pages that i had posted there were still accessible and functioned correctly. weird. Ill Keep you posted if it happens again though.

so everything was going fine with putting pages up on my heliohost account got my perl problem sorted out and was testing some scripts before attempting to integrate them with my web pages when suddenly i was denied access to my cpanel when i tried to sign in...? i was presented with an error message that was like this... Sorry for the inconvience! The filesystem mounted at / on this server is running out of disk space. cPanel operation has been temporarily suspended to prevent something bad from happening. Please ask your system admin to remove any files not in use on that partition. so who do i contact, what is the address and how did that happen? was it my fault or the servers fault

well i tried the .cgi extension again today with a different script that i uploaded to test today and it worked a treat cant see anything different in the script from the one i uploaded previously and the shebang line was corecct. as far as i can see i haven't changed anything but now its working so all is good. cheers djbob

i checked the error messages in my cpanel and all it told me was that the file permissions were not set correctly to be executable so i changed them to 0755 and then it still didnt work. the file is definitely in the cgi-bin directory and i did try and execute it with a different extension. i.e the first i tried to run had a .pl extension so i uploaded the same script with a .cgi extension and it still didnt work. what about the shebang line?? /usr/bin/perl is that the correct directory where perl lives on the server?

im having a problem running my perl scripts on my website. when i log into my website to make changes there is a list of information on the side of the page that shows all the different statistics you might need to know. one of the info panels shows the path to perl which as described on the page is /usr/bin/perl. i used this on my page and then set the permissions on the file so i could execute it and then when i tried to view the page i got a 500 internal server error. the page suggested that i look at the server error log for some suggestions but i dont know where that is either. the page that i submitted works in principal as i have tested it on a perl editor that i have installed locally on my own machine. please help me i am a n00b and have no idea what im doing???
