I am trying to connect to a remote PostgreSQL database via VBA. I read here about the Database server configuration to make this possible but i cannot find the configuration files in cPanel file manager(I am new to cPanel).
It says in the article that i can find the pgsql config file here /var/lib/pgsql/data but i do not see a var folder in the root folder.
You can NOT access your /var directory through cPanel file manager. cPanel file manager has limited directory access and due to that you can not access /var folder which is present outside the cPanel user home directory
You will have to access your server with root user through SSH and then try to access /var/lib/pgsql/ directory
Please I had some issues with the party hosting my website, when i contacted another party they requested me to transfer my site to a folder "backup" in the root of my account so that they can see if they can deploy it or not. Which files should I put in this folder they said? please I need an answer it is very ugrent
Login your cPanel and create new backup of your account so that you will get your all files with the latest content to your new host.
You can generate backup with the following steps.
Login your cPanel >> Backup >> Download a full website backup >> and click on "Generate Backup"
Above steps will create the backup file in your root directory account. Then you will have to provide them your login details so that they will migrate your site.

I've done several email migrations, including from CPANEL to Office 365. From my experience the best thing to do is one of this two things:
If your users use Outlook or any other offline application, just create all the emails in the new panel and let the users define their passwords. Help them on configuring the new email account in Outlook, for example, and afterwards they just need to copy all the emails to the new account.
If your users only use webmail, just let the cpanel accounts active for them to be able to see the emails on their old account. In my opinion, trying to export/import all this information is not the best option. If you want them to have the old emails in the new accounts, just tell them to use the strategy of downloading with Outlook or other software the emails and copy/move them to the new account.
If you were migrating between versions of the same panel, lets say for example from Exchange 2010 to Exchange 2013, it would have been easy to import the information, and maintain the login info, because you were probably using AD.
you can use imapsync or popsync to migrate emails .
Please create email id on new server and use below command after installing imapsync
imapsync --host1 server1.example.com --user1 sales#example.com --passfile1 /etc/secret2 --host2 server2.example.com --user2 sales#example.com --passfile2 /etc/secret2
or not with passfile
imapsync --host1 old.mailserver.com --user1 test#domain.com --password1 mypasswd --host2 new.mailserver.com --user2 test#domain.com --password2 mypasswd
you need to install imapsync first with the following command Note this command is for centos 6
wget http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/x86_64/epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm
wget http://rpms.famillecollet.com/enterprise/remi-release-6.rpm
rpm -Uvh remi-release-6*.rpm epel-release-6*.rpm**
yum install imapsync
If you just like to migrate the emails then perform the imap sync that is best and easiest way to perform the email migration. Just you will need to make sure that your old and new server have open the imap for the migration.
If it's failing then best option is configure the email account using the old setting in one of your local system. Download all emails in it. That's it.
What do I need to do to change the default page in cpanel?
Update or create .htaccess file in the public_html folder and make the following content..
DirectoryIndex index.php home.php
If you are referring to the default apache cPanel page then you will need whm access for that
WHM >> Main >> Account Functions >> Web Template Editor
Here you can change the default page, suspended page etc.
Assuming you are referring to the default page when an account is created, this is easily done by creating an index.html or .php page within your /etc/skel folder (assuming you have a VPS or dedicated server).
There is a setting within WHM that allows for it in case you are not CLI savvy.
Hope this helps, sorry for the delayed response, but I'm new and trying to build my rep up!
You can create custom branded login pages for cPAnel and WHM by using the advanced branding features of cPanel. cPanel also supports custom login pages for each reseller's accounts. Linked Below is the documentation.

how to create cpanel default page for hosting domains.
create default html page and upload the files in Skeleton Directory on cpanel root domain.
http://www.motherhost.in/members/knowledgebase/22/how-to-change-default-page-in-cpanel.html
The skeleton directory ( Skeleton Directory: A directory that defines what files and subdirectories new accounts will have by default. When the account is created, the new user’s account will contain an exact copy of the skeleton directory.) exists to let you easily copy the same files into every new account’s public_html and public_ftp directories when the account is created.
Keep in mind that:
When a visitor accesses http://example.com, he will see the contents of example.com 's public_html directory.
When a visitor accesses http://example.com/subdirectory, he will see the contents of public_html/subdirectory.
Contents of the public_ftp directory are available for anonymous FTP users to download.
This WHM feature simply states the location of the skeleton directory (/root/cpanel3-skel).
To set up your skeleton directory:
These files will be accessible to the new user via an FTP client.
Decide what kind of default setup you would like your new users to have.
Place the appropriate subdirectories and HTML files in /root/cpanel3-skel/public_html.
These files will be copied to new accounts’ public_html directories when accounts are created.
Place the appropriate FTP-related files in /root/cpanel3-skel/public_ftp.
These files will be accessible to the new user via an FTP client.
