Temporary URLs in cPanel

Your site may be configured to use a domain name in this file. You might check there first. If the site is configured to use a domain name but you're not using one here, errors are the result. I'm guessing of course, but start there.

 

Can you please post line 2 of that config.php here?

 

Hello

When you use Apache Mod_Userdir (ip_address/~user), you are running the script as the nobody user, instead of as the account user. Because of this, the script is creating files in /tmp owned by nobody, or 500, which it cannot open later. To avoid this, edit your hosts file on your workstation to point the domain name to the IP address, instead of using Apache Mod_Userdir to preview the website. Editing the hosts file will let you access the site by typing the domain name into the browser, and it will create session files with the correct ownerships in /tmp.

Thank you.

 

Yes, that is correct. You would edit the hosts file on your own machine, rather than on the server.

Thank you.

 

Here is an example of an entry you could add to the hosts file on your computer:

Code:

IPAddress     yourdomain.com

Simply replace "IPAddress" with the IP address that is assigned to the account.

Thank you.

 

The easy answer is to use the domain name. If you like, send me a message with a link to one of the sites.

 

I've taken a look at the URLs sent to me. The script you're using joboardscripts has 3 different types of licenses. Going by the website for that script, the owned version is over $7,000 dollars. I'm going to assume you've got one of the other, less costly versions. You have no access to the Source code in either of those offerings. Only the 7,000 dollar version offers you full source code.

If you open one of your sites, and place your mouse over a link, you see that the full domain name is being used.

My guess, you're not going to be able to do what you want to do here with this script without using the full domain name. The script requires the full domain name to operate.

This is not a cPanel issue, its an issue with the scripts you're using incorrectly.

If I was to suggest anything, it would be to contact the folks over at joboardscripts and ask them if using relative URLs is possible. I bet its not.

 

Looking at the complexity of the sites, your developers should understand exactly what I mean.

Assisting with something not cPanel related is out of the scope of these forums, my apologies.

 

There are limitations to using mod_userdir (the temporary url), which have already been explained previously by Michael on the last page. The initial sessions are saved as nobody and that is why you can see the site without the warning messages initially but do not own the sessions when trying to view it a second time. This is exactly how mod_userdir functions under suPHP and the account owner does not own the sessions, since the account owner is not the actual user of the processes under mod_userdir. There is not a way around the issue for how the sessions are saved in /tmp under suPHP using mod_userdir.

One option has already been provided to temporarily view the sites by modifying the hosts file if you do not wish to change the session_save_path. Since the temporary url is only intended to be temporary, then it would not be a long period of time when this would be used.
