HelioHost Posted February 8, 2025 Posted February 8, 2025 (edited) VPS number: 111, VPS ID: 671 I think I setup the incorrect setting here. See how it reads ns1.neutity.store (vs ns1.heliohost.org ?) Can you guide me where do I put that info? at namecheap please?

MoneyBroz Posted February 8, 2025 Posted February 8, 2025 You can change your nameserver settings by clicking the manage button under your domain in the namecheap account page. after that you should scroll down and see a section titled nameservers that looks like this.
Krydos Posted February 8, 2025 Posted February 8, 2025 Yes, set your nameservers to ns1.heliohost.org and ns2.heliohost.org.
HelioHost Posted February 9, 2025 Author Posted February 9, 2025 hi there. you said, "see a section that looks like this.." but, i don't see anything. if you embedded an img, it's been filtered. i see no attachment. just FYI.

Krydos Posted February 9, 2025 Posted February 9, 2025 Yeah, he forgot that images don't get sent through these support emails.
HelioHost Posted February 9, 2025 Author Posted February 9, 2025 do i still need to see that? or take some action there? i think they were trying to demonstrate where to point my nameserver at namcheap, or how to indicate them. because they offer that "custom" thing where it's your own domain. and i think that's what i messed up. do you see my attachment? BTW! Please tell the person about the installation/ server sadmins stuff. Cool w/ me to stay w/ Apache and NGINX. It's probably best to know and unerstand that technique, to be true. i'm cool w/ that. So. I guess, that means nothing chnages, right? i just use the structure he showed me (or you showed me.... good lord. sorry) SOMEONE g/d showed me the structure to point full paths to the ./public_html containers for each domain. that's cool. w/ that, i should be able to make it happen. What about the apache ... virtual_host stuff. Do you have a template file (PLEASE!? lol) i'm sure i do, but... omg. i'd better do some testing n stuff. get my syntax back up to snuff. .htaccess n mod_rewrite. :D i guess i should be good to go now. many thanks!

I mean, i guess it's been Apache thus far anyway. I was looking in /etc/nginx/sites-avail i need ? :ding!: /etc/apache2/... to find those virtual hosts files (methinks) On Sat, Feb 8, 2025 at 11:31?PM J Sabarese wrote: > do i still need to see that? or take some action there? > i think they were trying to demonstrate where to point my nameserver at > namcheap, or how to indicate them. > because they offer that "custom" thing where it's your own domain. and i > think that's what i messed up. do you see my attachment? > > BTW!

Krydos Posted February 9, 2025 Posted February 9, 2025 Since you're using Hestia the config files are located in /home/admin/conf/web/domain.com/ not /etc/nginx/ or /etc/apache2/ or anything. You may not need to edit them though, and keep in mind Hestia may overwrite some of your changes if you edit the wrong files. The file should have a comment at the top with the warning when you try to edit it.

HelioHost Posted February 10, 2025 Author Posted February 10, 2025 Specifically, I want to use Composer to install wp-cli/wp-cli for use in any/ all of my ... domain names because we decided they all happen to be WP sites (for now at least). I installed using the curl script (wget ... whatever from the composer site) no. actually, i guess PHP pulls the file from remote. good lord. i never noticed that. SMH. But how is it done? e.g. composer global requrie wp-cli/wp-cli i tried that earlier or yesterday, and it didn't seem to be the correct way of doing it. Is it better to use apt install composer ? i may have done that as well... also w/out success because I don't know precisely how to execute a command in this environment. E.g. it's easy, on a dev server or "local" on that shared server i had, i could do: cd /home/username/public_html (centrewebdesign.com) ~/vendor/wp-cli/wp-cli/bin/wp core update ~/vendor/wp-cli/wp-cli/bin/wp theme update --all ~/vendor/wp-cli/wp-cli/bin/wp plugin update --all because i somehow installed wp-cli in my user dir. i don't think that was supposed to happen. who knows. anyway. and that made it super easy to do a regular update. also, for a project such as this, i just take my list of plugins and rather than FTP them, use the error list (because it will give me one if i do it this way) of the database bitching that the plugins (which used to be there) are no longer installed. grab that list (or my local dir structure i suppose), and use a text editor to create a bunch of lines like "plugin_name" regex (plugin_name) wp plugin install $1 and that takes 2 mins, vs 20 manually. so, i want to do ssh jsaba@vps111 composer global require wp-cli/wp-cli and be albe to execute those commands on the WP sites. which i guess will be all of the sites. Currently. i just have the centrewebdesign site up there. well. no. i installed WP. but, that will be the CWD site. for now. i'll do the other domain names meanwhile, but i'm hoping you can advise about the wp-cli . i'll refrain from uploading the plugins/ themes as it's saves bandwidth etc. thank you!
