cpanel license expired...need help

Hi,

My webhost seems to have their cpanel license expired and I cant login into my whm or cpanel into any sites on my dedicated server.

I want to transfer my sites to a new webhost. Can I still do it with out cpanel access?
If so how? and what are my options?

Thanks.

 

If its a dedicated server and you have root access to the box, then you can simply transfer the files over.
I'm sure you can get cpanel off it (or get a new license of cpanel), though I'm not too sure.. I don't like cpanel much

 

yes you could use ftp to transfer the files . but you might not be able to transfer the database that easily

 

FTP would allow you to transfer the files out but it would not allow you to move the MySQL database.

Contact your web host, it may be a small technicality which your web host would fix if they are concerned about their business.

 

You can write a php script to grab mysql databases , but you should know how to do it .

 

if you have shell access, i recommend you login and run:
/usr/local/cpanel/cpkeyclt

(this updates your cpanel license file)

otherwise if youre on shared hosting, you should chase up your webhost to verify their license with cpanel

 

SSH to your server and run /usr/local/cpanel/cpkeyclt

This will only work if you have valid cPanel license i.e. License time isnt over.

 

its not difficult to move the files + databases even if cpanel isnt running . you will need some php coding to do it though . contact us if you want help .

 

Google it.

 

Why do some much when ou can login to cpanel even after license has expired ! How ? Just delete the cookies (of cpanel) of your browser and try logging, tried tested works everytime

 

im curious as to how can deleting a clientside stored cookie can get around an expired cpanel license which locks out access to cpanel (across all domains on the server) & whm server wide?

 

don't need to wirte anything

just do a little reseach and u'll find a lot of db backup scripts, which u can use w/o, even if u newbie

e.g - > Sypex Dumper Lite 1.0.8 -> _sypex.net/files/SypexDumperLite_108.zip

it's in russian, as i remember, but the only think that u need to do is to upload this file, create /backup/ folder and put 777 permission.

then type in your browser url to this dumper.php and voilà [in french]!!!

 

Its http based authentication and not cookie based, normally(excep the admin has selected cookie based)
