Just Accidentally Erased My ENTIRE website


Ning To Jamroom

No cpanel in JR server so perhaps that will be a good thing Curtis.

Jamroom Hosting - looking for a few beta testers


Jamroom Hosting

Arvixe let me transfer out my domain name to my other guys, once I paid them the lousy $10 (since it was no longer 'free'), they then gave me the transfer authorization code and unlocked the domain for me, and I initiated the transfer. No big hassle, so that was cool.
Should have it all in place and under me control in a few days.

If you have Filezilla you can do SFTP ('Secure' File Transfer Protocol). When you have created a JR server you'll see the server IP address, its username, password and port number in the hosting control panel. Just set Filezilla up with that to upload/download files to the server.

Ok I will try this again later today- i tried connecting via filezilla last night but maybe my brain was shot for the day. Filezilla would be good as i've used it briefly once or twice with my Arvixe server, so at least i did make it work once. lol

3) This is the one that concerns me - "SFTP" I don't know what this is, how it works, what type of control it provides.

Mind you, I can use Filezilla to access my c-panel, see my files, do bulk transfers, edit if I have to - though I prefer the c-panel File system editor for making changes at the file level. Is SFTP a similar type of access to what Filezilla provides in a c-panel setting?

This is exactly my question and confusion as well. Can we maybe get a video tutorial for dummies on how to use "SFTP" to connect/see/upload/download/delete/tweak our files or folders on our JR server? Like how do I even start?

Say for instance I need to upload a new color .jpg to use as a side-wrapper image on my site's background color? Originally, after tweaking my skin style .css, I had to actually replace the generic grey-gradient image that came with JR default... I named mine the same and REPLACED the default jpg in my skin IMAGES folder, using my cPanel access.
How would I do that now? Can i make folders on my server for keeping misc files related to my JR site?- like alternate icon image files IO might switch occasionally, or specific template copies I want to hold onto for later use? Urp...just realized I'll ALSO need to figure out how to add a chat function into my site/server before I go live- preferably cometchat. =8-*

Please help us non-coders to understand how to access or see/upload/download stuff on our servers now that we no longer have our familiar cpanels. Maybe a tutorial section... Thanks!

OK it only took a few hours and now my whole JR site is up and running on the JR server....looks complete and identical.
It is.... SUPER FAST!!!! About 100x faaster than the cheap arvixe shared server (what a huge relief!!) but....
also MUCH faster than my Ning site, which i didn't expect.
Yayyyyyyyy!!!! It's fast as greased lightning. :) :) :D
