Hosting support

Hi

We are moving our site from one host to another namely from a namesco server to a webhostingUK server. When the site was first set up this was done by an independent person, the data they have given to move the site is ftp access to all the files and a settings.php.

Previously I have managed to load a back up of our site on my local machine using a ftp back up and an sql dump of the database. It all worked reasonably well except that some of the content, images and youtube videos were missing and and the colours looked transparent.

We've had a client request a large Drupal site be hosted on their internal Windows Servers. We have only ever used and recommended LAMP for large sites (100,000+ visitors/1m page views per month), so wanted to know if anyone knows of any high profile examples of this being done, and if so, what issues were involved?

online payment is necessary so SSL and unique ip is requirement.
fast response time from server.

i recently moved hosting of my drupal sites from GoDaddy to Dreamhost...

have been much happier so far...

except pretty regularly uploads of images and mp3's for my rock band website time out and i have to make several attempts at uploading...

it was so annoying i started using the import image feature and FTP'd images up to server and then used drupal import image thingy...

now, i have configured one of my sites to allow uploads up to 90mb so i can get .wav audio files sent back and forth between band members...

drupal says this new 90mb limit is now set but again i am getting time outs - is that what its called?

i noticed that there are more than several modules / systems for uploading files...

which is more robust?

i kinda like the features of one that lets you automatically generate a path for each users uploads by username and date which is just perfect... but i seemed to have installed every single file module available and have gotten myself very confused about what settings and what modules work with what modules...

the WebFM modules look nice too but it lacks the features of generating paths for each user automatically

can someone clarify which set of modules i should try?

but, i will be happy using any module set as long as i can get reasonably reliable uploads

thanks!

Hi All,

Hello, I'm new to drubal.

Our Cub Scout website has not been supported for over a year as the administrator left the scouts. No one knows the user ID in order to control the site. Someone thinks they know the password. Does anyone know what we can do to log in and manage the site ? What might be the admin user ID or how to reset it ?

Thanks
