Problems that are specific to the point of not applying to others in the future is not a useful question by Stack Exchange standards. The question might not get closed if there were some particularly heroic (and applicable) answers that were submitted if they could help others, but this is not one of those cases. | |

How to click into the hostname field on a LAMP administration panel and type in your webserver's desired hostname is in no way system administration. By even allowing these questions to be asked and answered, we just invite more crappy questions about "halp i got a vps and i don't know how to server, plz to be explain the cpanel 2 me kthx bai", to the point that we literally have many thousands of this type of question, and the general consensus among the community is that we can't kill them fast enough. | |
