WEB help for oOPLE
I've been banging my brain against a wall trying to find a new server for oople. 1and1 suck the absolute balls. End of.
OVH loook great but won't offer any support configuring the server to how I like it and how I need it to get my vBulletin across and start working on the oopleV2 Anyone know a gods-load of knowledge about server - and I'm not talking out of school basic knowledge. I've been doing this over 24 years and made my first commercial website 19 years ago. HOWEVER - I'm creative minded not technical. My brain just aint wired that way. If you know your shit and want to help set up an OVH dedicated server for me then let me know! However - any offers of help WONT be ignored. I don't want to share hosting with anyones server since i don't want to be responsible for F'ing it up. VPS or Cloud might work. Help! My usual go-to man for this sorta thing is too busy now so I'm a bit screwed.

Have you bought and signed up for a dedicated OVH server already?
One of these: http://www.ovh.co.uk/dedicated_servers/ ? Infrastructure is what I do. How do you want it configured? I take it its a bare metal OS install you want?

I'm just on a 7 day trial to look at some stuff.
I am on 1and1 MANAGED server right now. Not that they help me with all the stuff I have to do of course. So - yet to invest in a OVH server - I can buy canadian prices - thats official - so might make it a bit cheaper. You've looking at a 1gb ram server right now. So. we need to get a move on. I need mysql for vbulletin - I need to be easily add domains for comedy purposes; I need to ssh in to back up vbulletin but a cron job to do it daily would be much preferable. If you're up for helping mate I can give yo a call and we can discuss further if you like? Thanks for replying tho. Jimmy

what OS were you thinking? http://www.ovh.co.uk/dedicated_servers/distributions/ Centos is my choice for my clients, however their requirements may be different to yours. You can build a stable hosting platform on centos, or ubuntu but OVH may offer a better scripted install of their suggested OS? say OVH OS or one of the plesk builds, for example? also they may give a better support level on their own OS? Can I have a play with the control panel to build OS and manage the server? I take it you haven't switch it on to play yet?

cpanel is fine for being able to add/create/bin new domain/site hosting easily. it can be weak in some setups/cponfig options, however vBulletin should run fine under it, as it does already. also we have fll ssh into the server, so that could bypass any problems with just having cpanel alone.
I guess cpanel will give you a nice front end that you will have used before. want to pm me some login details and i'll take a look when i can today.
