For those who doesnt know me im the hosting provider for this site.
As of 2nd april, you may or may not have noticed that this site has been down couple of times. This is because when we moved to this new server I never realized until yesterday that how insecure and dangerous the linux was insstalled as including the php, apache, domain system, mysql and our base functionality on our server. This was required a mandatory reinstallation and relocation on new service on a safe location to prevent an easy hack attack which can be easily accomplish by doing many ways of hacking methods.

Mysql had to be removed and install through a more standard way than the abnormal way which we had before, so to do that the site had to be taken down for a brief moment

For the apache, same issues aswell. our domain was set in a bad way and to move to a safer location on the server but that led some complication. Such as blank page, but was fixed in due time. Since i had to personally update every domains that this server is hosting

Php. was a real mess which had several php services running at same time. Had to remove and reinstall and also throughly secure the php to take another step to secure this server ffrom any potential hack attacks.

if we didnt take do this the hacker would havaalot of different hacking methology to hack this server
The server has been overall optimized and is caching this site through memory in order to enhance faster pageload

if theres anything just report any irregularities

well for today the reason why the site was unaccessable was because ajay added one code line that was illegal php code thus resulted 38gb large error log which resulted httpd service down because the partition was full.

eror has been removed and ajay has removed the illegal code line so everything should be working as before...
