The lack of TLS 1.0 on tommy was actually a problem for me 2 weeks ago. I recently got tasked with connecting a network of XP machines (which cannot be upgraded due to special software) to a service I run on tommy for monitoring, and needless to say it doesn't work (the client half uses the native windows functions...). I ended up settling for removing the ssl redirect on the server and rebuilding the client to use no encryption at all... Speaking of which, in the opposite direction, would it be possible to turn these (especially 1.0) back on for tommy? I would prefer the TLS if possible because the client app I mentioned above is transferring system info that could include things like WiFi network SSIDs and account usernames.

Try using skrill or crypto instead. There's several other ways to donate: https://heliohost.org/donate/ You will need to post a transaction ID afterwards to have your account moved.

It might be updateable, but it won't happen in the immediate future simply because my real life is too busy. I haven't even been getting time to do the unarchives on the forums, which is why those are piling up until Krydos does them...I haven't even sat at my computer in over a week at this point.

This is his second time for high load. If it gets suspended again, it might not be unsuspended. Wordpress is infamous for this due to how badly it's written. Please remove it to avoid getting suspended again.

Unblocked. It was for failed IMAP logins, so you have a misconfigured mail client somewhere.

That's very common for WordPress, which is infamous for getting people suspended for load. You can try removing a bunch of extensions, but the only permanent fix for Wordpress, is to not use Wordpress.

Your account was suspended for causing high server load. I have unsuspended your account, but please try to limit the load you put on our servers as it slows down not only your site, but the sites of all other HelioHost users sharing your server. <br /><br />If you still see the suspended page, please clear your cache.<br /><br />If you need help figuring out why your site is causing such high load let us know and we can try to help. If the high load is simply because your site is getting a lot of traffic, you might want to consider purchasing a VPS instead. https://www.heliohost.org/vps/ VPS hosting gives you an entire virtual server to yourself, including no load limits, a dedicated IP address, and full root access.

There isn't really any one fix for WP. Removing extensions can help, but the best fix for WP is to not use WP. Just about any other cms you could pick is better, both performance and security wise.

The newer browsers can support newer TLS on XP, but from my understanding that’s because they come with their own libraries for SSL (OpenSSL or the like). The native windows schannel and related don’t support these on XP, so any software that relies on the system libs to connect will fail.

I think at this point it's simply not going to work here. The requirement of Windows binaries for the UE4 stuff alone makes this impossible since we don't run Windows... I'd suggest you get a cheap VPS and call it a day. A VPS will let you run whatever code you want without the limitations we impose on our free services. Or even better, for development purposes you could just run the server stuff on an extra PC at your house and forward the ports if you want friends/testers to access it.

It failed for the same reason as before (the reason is blank, usually when this happens, it works the second time around...). Let's have Krydos take a look...

Well, our servers run Linux, so the UE4/replicate stuff won't run here if it's a bunch of windows binaries. You'd need Linux versions if they actually need to run on the server, and even then, I'm not sure how well they'd run, or whether the amount of load they produce will get yo suspended for load (continuously running background tasks increase your risk of a load suspension since they're always causing some load, typically ram use, even when idle). You can offer windows binaries for download though, so you could host updates and the like here. Wordpress will probably get you suspended for load (or accidentally banned when it invariably gets hacked and the criminals set up a phishing site). It's literally the only piece of software that we recommend people not use simply due to how badly written and insecure it is. The other parts probably would work. The java war is supported, as is python and mysql. Websockets are supposedly capable of being proxied through Apache (not sure if anyone ever got it working, but I know a few others have tried), so that might work too. R can probably be run on your PC and connect to the database as a data source...does that really need to be on the server?

Unsuspended. Thank you for the information.

It's suspended because we needed more information from you. What do you plan to use this account for?

Custom server processes and daemons are not supported on the free shared hosting, at least not ones that need to open ports like a game server would. You'll need to buy a VPS if you want to do that here. https://heliohost/org/vps/

It's Ricky, not Tommy, for that account, and it failed due to an internal server error. Please check your email for an invite to RIcky to try again.

One thing to keep in mind here: older devices don't support 1.2+ (older phones, anything with Windows XP, etc.). Turning these off means losing these devices entirely (not that XP works with ssl anyway, it can't handle SNI-based SSL connections if i remember right and we rarely if ever have someone buy a dedicated IP for ssl anymore).

You're suspended for sending too many emails. The limit is 50 emails per day. You'll need to wait 24 hours for the mail counter to reset before this can be unsuspended.

It's for high load. Wordpress is notorious for this...it's so badly written that nearly any other CMS you could use is better. It's the number one way people get a high load suspension, and also the leading cause of hacked accounts and accidental bans (it's laughably insecure on its own, and even more so once you add extensions and themes, many of which are filled with backdoors). Please fix or delete Wordpress ASAP. You can try removing your extensions from it, if any, but the best way to fix Wordpress...is to not use Wordpress. Unsuspended.

It's banned for phishing because WordPress got hacked. That's very common for WP. It's quite possibly the worst CMS software in existence...it's poorly written, and as a result it causes tons of load and is extremely insecure. WP getting hacked is the leading cause of accidental phishing bans here at HelioHost. Just about any other software will be both faster and more secure than WP. An invite for a replacement account has been sent to you. You will need to create a new account and restore your data from any backup you may have. The data cannot be recovered from an account banned for phishing due to the presence of stolen information.

Fixed. Also, quota is now 1000MB like it should be...

@sohamb03: No it's not. That account is broken (Ricky's been doing this lately, he's the third one where our custom stuff says a Ricky account is active when the account is anything but). It's showing an inactive page and it won't unsuspend from the admin tools. WHM says it's active with an unlimited quota somehow... I'm working on it...

To expand on this one a little bit, we automatically ban PUBG sites since 99% of them end up phishing. These accounts are almost always used to host fake game item offers that steal user credentials. GArena "Free Fire" sites are another one we handle similarly. When they get suspended, they will show as phishing, even if they're empty. In fact, it's so common that we explicitly forbid those sorts of sites in the Terms of Service: This particular account is empty at the moment. If the OP would like to explain what he plans to host here, I'd be willing to consider allowing him to have the account assuming he complies with our terms of service.

Huh, as someone who has never used the GFM platform from the organization perspective, that's neat. TIL. Not sure how I missed the sparkie purchased message on it :-/ (something to do with posting at 6am before my coffee probably ) Yeah, we probably should plan on a new fundraiser at some point. Of course, who knows what the pandemic is going to look like come winter...
