I just transferred over from one server to a WHM machine and for the time being, I'd like to keep traffic going to the old server until I am certain the new WHM / CPanel server is working correctly.
So [not sure if this was necessary...] but I was afraid the transfer process would start propogating the DNS servers and the traffic would get routed to the new server in a few days... so I deleted the DNS entry... was that a good move? I just want to test using the temporary urls right now.
However, when I use the http:[ip_addess]/~[account name] some pages load fine, while others get many php errors such as:
If I try to use a file_get_contents command for an external page (such as a webservice) I get the error:
The machine is a dedicated server running WHM / CPanel X:
WHM 11.23.2 cPanel 11.23.6-R26881
REDHAT Enterprise 5.2 x86_64 on standard - WHM X v3.1.0
Thanks for any help, I'm a newbie at this.
