    Hi. I am in a very stressful situation right now. I need access to my site but I cannot seem to connect or even view the site from here. The one in charge of the hosting says he can access the site just fine from there. I don't know whats happening. The sites are Aljiro.com and AmazingTextEffects.com

    Please help me. Maybe its Dns or something.. I already did FlushDns thing and also I can't even traceroute my sites.

    Please help me... Im really in need. Thank you...

    UPDATE!

    I can view through Proxy. That must mean something. Please help.

    Browse the following directory in your C Drive >> Windows >> System32 >> Drivers >> Etc >> Edit the file named "hosts" with a wordpad.

    By default, there should be a line like this:

    "127.0.0.1 localhost"

    Go to the next line and add this:

    00.00.00.00(put the hosting service IP) yourdomain.com

    00.00.00.00(put the hosting service IP) www.yourdomain.com

    Now note, replace yourdomain.com with your own domain and change 00.00.00.00 with the IP allocated for your account. To find which IP is allocated for your account, login to your cpanel, and from the left menu, find "Shared IP address" or "Dedicated IP address". Another way, you can find this out by going to WHM >> List Accounts >> Search yourdomain.com and the IP listed.

    Save the file and try pinging your domain. It should point to the IP you listed in hosts file. And if you try to browse your site now, it should go to our server or the IP you listed in hosts file.



    See if that helps.

    I see your problem is fixed. But this also could help if you have problems with more websites.

    Use 208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220. (open dns) for your dns server

    That error is due to the missing table structure of your database. You dont have a query called "CREATE TABLE" before wrdp1 saying "INSERT INTO"

    You should either get a new copy of the backup with the table information, or install the script you are using again and overide the existing queries within the database.
