I would be really glad if someone explains me how to transfer my website from plesk to cpanel, I have no idea what to do.
and what's gonna happen to my webmail?
can I create a new email in my new host and keep my last email on the old host? cause I can't get backup of it,
or is there any easy way to transfer my current mail too?
Did you know, that cPanel offers "complimentary migration service for migrations from Linux versions of Odin Plesk (formerly Parallels) / DirectAdmin / Ensim, to cPanel."?
You are able to inform yourself at for example:

I am trying to find some guidance on where to go next on the issue I am having migrating a phpbb3 site from one hosting service to another.
I have checked to make sure the config.php file has been changed to work on the new server, as well as the common.php file. I am getting a HTTP 500 error when I try to search for the forum. The main site is working normally, just the message board is having a problem.
Nothing about the structure of the sites pages has changed, only the hosting server. (I downloaded a copy of the website before moving it so I have everything in the exact way it was before, just on the new server.)
Do I need to install phpbb onto the server itself with Softaculous?
Anything would help, I need to get the site back up and running soon.
Thanks in advance.

This post would have been better addressed on phpBB.com support section...
In any cases most hosting companies out there will perform the migration for you for free.
Did you ask about handling a migration for you?
There are many things that need to be done when migrating to a new hosting.
here a couple of pointers for you:
-PHP version in use should be PHP 5.6.x as phpBB 3.0.x does not support higher PHP versions
-config.php might need updating, for example these two fields:
$dbhost = '';
$dbport = '';
-check your error logs in your cPanel as they will reveal the cause of the 500 error
Also, NO you do not need Softaculous
I'll be happy to help you with this if you PM me on:

The php version on the new hosting services server was above what phpBB 3.0.x needed. I upgraded phpBB to version 3.2.9 and the issue was resolved.
I am moving a site from old godaddy hosting to new cpanel godaddy hosting. I have downloaded Wordpress files using ftp, and downloaded sql database file as well. When I go to my new hosting and try and import database I get this error...
x#1062 - Duplicate entry '\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\xEF\xBF\xBD\xEF\xBF\xBD' for key 'PRIMARY'
What am I doing wrong?
Perhaps this answer is not about your error in particular but I think it can help you.
I humbly recommend you the Duplicator plug-in when moving WordPress sites. This plug-in will create a package for you which contains all your WordPress files and DB. It will also create a php installation file that will help you reinstall everything in very simple steps.
I've never experienced any issues moving WordPress sites with this plugin. Here's the link if you wanna give it a try.
https://wordpress.org/plugins/duplicator/
For the duplicate entry, if you have installed wordpress on the new panel then its because you have an administrator user with id 1 in the old database and in the new database as well that's why its showing duplicate entry.
The right thing for migration of wordress site is that you migrate it with 'All in one wp migration' plugin.
Manually move theme and plugins for time efficiency and export db with 'All in one wp migration' plugin.
I am new to Management System. Now I need to control a website. Some days ago, someone hack it — not SQL injection, just file change / new files upload.
I need to know the how can I prevent it; I want to learn.
Please, can someone give me some suggestions?
To prevent this, You need to update your server security with the mod_security, Mod_security is web server firewall so you will have to install and upadte mod_sec rules on your server to prevent this,
Also, Update your site scripts and plugin and themes which you are using for your site.
Use strong password for your cPanel, FTP and site admin panel
Also, Check WHM >> Security Center >> Security Advisor and fix all the Warning which you will get in that scan report.
Install maldet on your server and scan your all user home directory and remove infected files from your account.
Sorry about English, Actually i have been looking for best article about WHM/CPANEL server migration but i could not find yet. Hope this is the right platform.
I have one WHM/CPANEL server running with CentOS x86_64 standard. Now i want to migrate all stuff to my new high end machine.
Need to Transfer: (All accounts along with databases, Exim configuration, Tweak settings, PHP etc etc).
Note: I need step by step guide which will be highly appreciated, I am not too much technical and in learning phase so please go easy on me.
Thanks in advance.
First you need to install and setup cPanel on your new server.
After that you can migrate your all cPanel account to new server through transfer tool. WHM >> Transfers >> Transfer Tool
Here are the some useful docs.
https://documentation.cpanel.net/display/CKB/How+to+Move+All+cPanel+Accounts+from+One+Server+to+Another
cPanel setting are stored in /etc/wwwacct.conf and /var/cpanel/cpanel.config file so you can copy that setting to new server.
After the server setup is complete, you will have to recreate all the accounts you wish to move, on the server. You can create the domains in your server using the WHM and then restore the website contents manually using a FTP client(say FileZilla).
First you have to take the backup of your domain via cPanel. Please check below URL to find information regarding this:-
http://docs.cpanel.net/twiki/bin/view/AllDocumentation/CpanelDocs/BackupWizard#Backup your entire site
Then Create the account in WHM.
Upload the contents in these newly created domain and restore them via WHM or cPanel.
To restore via WHM please follow below steps:-
Main >> Backup >> Restore a Full Backup/cpmove file
Please refer the cPanel docs link below on how to restore an account via cPanel.
http://docs.cpanel.net/twiki/bin/view/AllDocumentation/CpanelDocs/BackupWizard#
If you have cpanel WHM server and you want to transfer your whole server accounts and websites to another WHM server then its really very easy and simple. All you need is root access of both server.
If you have set up your high end new WHM server, then login to your new WHM with root user and go to transfer tool from WHM > Transfers > Transfer Tool. It will show you fields to input the details of your low end server. Once you provide the root information of server it will fetch the accounts lists and account details. From there you can select which accounts to transfer and which to not. If you want to transfer all accounts then you can select all and proceed the transfer. It will transfer all your accounts with their current package details.
Try the cpanel transfer tool its easy and simple to understand and proceed.

I'm trying to publish my program so that it can get updates and am told I have to publish my changes to a web server or file share server, but I have no idea about how I can go about getting one...are there free ones that will perform what I need to accomplish?
Ok, I don't know what to do and comments seem to go ignored.
I've tried setting the publish location to sites.google.com/site/mysite.com/filecabinetpage/PQCMFILES
and I got an error saying I needed "Front Page Server Extension Capabilities".
I tried setting it to http://productivityquotient.hostzi.com/PQCMFILES/ and it told me:
Error 1 Failed to connect to 'http://productivityquotient.hostzi.com/PQCMFILES/' with the following error: Unable to create the Web site 'http://productivityquotient.hostzi.com/PQCMFILES'. An error occurred accessing your site configuration files. Authors - if authoring against a web server, please contact the webmaster for this server's site.

I tried setting it to a directory on the microsoft site and it said: "unable to create directory. files moved" or something like that.
I can't host it on an ftp server if I intend to use the updates feature and I don't know what to do...
Maybe Microsoft's free web hosting will allow you to do this.
000webhost.com is actually a pretty reliable host, with decent and free advertisement-free hosting. It also supports typical web server things such as FTP access, cpanel and e-mail accounts.
Their limit on free hosting is basically low disk space (1.5 GB) and bandwidth (100 GB/mo) and some minor content restriction. If that seems fine for you, then I highly recommend it. Even on free accounts, their ticket response time is blazing.
NearlyFreeSpeech, while not free, lets you host your application on a pay as you go plan. There are free web-hosts, but most lack the features of costies, such as FTP access.
