Muppie Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 Username: MuppiesServer: SteveDomain: Muppies.tk Not been 24hrs but would have thought the setting up would be automatic.DNS already resolves. Is there any way at all to view website before hand? I remember using IP/~username on another server before but does not seem to work here. Thank you.

wolstech Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 There is no way to do this on our server. You will be able to use cPanel and FTP within a few hours, but it takes a day or so before the actual website works because Apache must restart first (it usually does it every night, but it gets skipped some nights if the server is busy).

Muppie Posted June 14, 2016 Author Share Posted June 14, 2016 ah ok seems odd but ok. Always used one of these of servers before to reload without affecting users./etc/init.d/httpd reload or apachectl -k graceful nevermind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolstech Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 On many servers, that would work. However, most servers have very few accounts (a few hundred, maybe a few thousand in a large case)...we have over 10000 accounts (many with multiple domains) on Stevie. cPanel themselves even told us a while back that they'd never seen so many on a single box, this is usually a decent-sized cluster's worth of accounts. If apache restarted immediately when anyone changed/added a domain, it'd never be up seeing it has a several minute reload time due to the huge number of domains it has to load.
