When a user attempts to connect to a Web site and an HTTP error occurs, a generic message is sent back to the client browser with a brief description of what happened during the attempt to establish a connection. For example, if a user attempts to connect to a page that no longer exists on the Web site, an HTTP error will be returned in the form of an HTML page that contains the statement The requested URL was not found on this server.
You can use the Custom Error Pages view to customize HTTP errors that are sent to clients when Web server errors occur. Following is a list of HTTP errors you can customise:
401 – Authorization Failed
The request requires user authentication, typically a Username/Password credential pair. If the request already included Authorization credentials, then the 401 response indicates that authorization has been refused for those credentials.
403 - Permission Denied/Forbidden
You tried to access a URL for which you don’t have permission.
404 – File / Resource Not Found
Your browser cannot locate the document corresponding to the URL you entered. An improperly typed URL is usually the cause.
406 - Resource Not Acceptable
It’s possible you have requested a page that contains files which your browser has indicated to the server that it cannot accept, e.g. a multimedia file that your browser cannot process. Your browser sends information about what files it can accept to the server (in the HTTP header) as part of a request. You might check the preferences settings of your browser to see if there are file types it is not accepting.
500 – Internal Error
The server encountered an unexpected condition which prevented it from fulfilling the request.
To customize the error messages, follow the procedure below:
1. Create your custom Error message and upload it to your website.
2. Login to your Control Panel and search for the domain name for which you have purchased this hosting package. Click here to read how >>
3. In the search results view, click on the domain name. This will take you to the order details view.

FTP exists primarily for the transfer of data between two end points. FTP differs from HTTP (Hyper Text Transfer Protocol, used for serving websites via web browsers) fundamentally as it is an application made up of two distinct TCP connections:
1. Control connection: This TCP-based connection is used to provide a communications channel for the delivery of commands and replies. This is effectively the mechanism that enables the user to tell the server which file is being requested, which directory it is in, and so forth.
2. Data connection: The second TCP-based connection is used for the actual transfer of user data. Once the Control connection has been used to exchange information on which file is required, the Data connection is used to transfer the file between the client and server.
Using these two communication connections, two distinct modes of operation determine in which direction the connections are established: Active mode and Passive mode.
FTP is a TCP based service exclusively. There is no UDP (User Datagram Protocol transports data as a connectionless protocol, using packet switching) component to FTP. FTP is an unusual service in that it utilizes two ports, a Data port and a Command port (also known as the Control port). Traditionally these are port 21 for the Command (Control) port and port 20 for the Data port. The confusion begins however, when we find that depending on the mode, the data port is not always on port 20.
Active FTP
In active mode FTP the FTP client software connects from a random unprivileged (unprivileged port is a port which is higher than 1023) port. Let’s say N is the FTP server’s command port, port 21.
Then, the client starts listening to port N+1 and sends the FTP command PORT N+1 to the FTP server. The server will then connect back to the client’s specified data port from its local data port, which is port 20.
Here in this mode of FTP, Gossimer doesn’t need to open any additional non-secure ports on our servers firewall and hence is secure from the server-side.
Passive FTP
In passive mode FTP, the FTP client initiates both connections to the server. When opening an FTP connection, the client opens two random unprivileged ports, lets say N and N+1. The first port contacts the server on port 21, but instead of then issuing a PORT command and allowing the server to connect back to its data port, the client will issue the PASV command. The result of this is that the server then opens a random unprivileged port lets say P and sends the PORT command back to the client. The client then initiates the connection from port N+1 to port P on the server to transfer data.
This method of FTP is insecure, as a random unprivileged port is opened on the Server. This is a potential security issue and it isn’t advisable to use the Passive mode of FTP.
IMPORTANT
All Gossimer Windows and Linux web servers support both Active as well as Passive modes.
All popular FTP software allow users to select the data connection mode (Active or Passive), when uploading/downloading data to a web server.

By default, your website becomes visible to all people browsing the Internet. Typically, large websites running forums, blogs, ecommerce activities, etc. are prone to abuse from spammers, people posting malicious content, etc., causing disruption of website services. The most effective method of dealing with such nuisance is to deny access to your website from such mischief mongers.
Using Gossimer’s IP Deny Manager tool within your Web Hosting Control Panel, you can easily control access to your website based on the visitor’s IP Address. Moreover, you may deny access from all IP Addresses of a particular block of IP Addresses, if you are receiving constant abuse from the entire range of IP Addresses.
Follow the process listed below to block/allow access to your website based on IP Addresses:
go to Manage Website -> IP Deny Manager, if you have a Windows web hosting package
or
go to Manage Website -> Web Server Manager -> IP Deny Manager, if you have a Linux web hosting package
Examples
i. If you wish to block a single IP Address, simply input the same in the textbox as
1.1.1.1
ii. If you wish to block multiple individual IP Addresses, then you may mention them on separate lines
2.2.2.2
3.3.3.3
iii. If you wish to block an entire range of IP Addresses, then you may mention them as
4.4.4.*
5.5.*.*
6.*.*.*
1. Use extreme caution when deciding to deny access to entire range of IP Addresses, as you might end up denying access to your genuine visitors.
2. IP Address of the type *.*.*.* is not allowed.
b. Allowing Access to your website - If you wish to enable access to a previously blocked IP Address, then you need to simply select that IP Address in the textbox and press the Delete key on your computer’s keyboard.
In order to complete the action in case of Linux Hosting, the Web Server needs to be restarted. Random restarts affect other services running on the Server. In order to avoid this, the Server has been scheduled to restart at intervals of 20 minutes. Hence, the changes might take upto 20 minutes to be effective.

A sub-domain is a subdivision of a Domain Name. While Domain Names need to be Registered with a Registrar, sub-domains are not and an unlimited number of sub-domains can be created through Managed DNS service. For example, a sub-domain news.yourdomain.com can be created on the Domain Name yourdomain.com.
Gossimer allows you to create unlimited sub-domains with your Linux Web Hosting package, by adding a Star (*) Address (DNS) Record for your Domain Name through the Managed DNS Order (that is included for free with your Web Hosting package). When a visitor reaches http://<sub-domain>.yourdomain.com, he is served the content from http://yourdomain.com/sub-domain/. Let’s discuss this with a few examples:
If someone typed http://news.yourdomain.com/php (without the trailing forward slash), he would receive a Page not found error.
1. If you are using our Managed DNS Service, then we have already created the appropriate Star Record to allow sub-domains on your Web Hosting package to begin working, once you modify your Name Servers to ours. Click here to find information about which Name Servers to use for activating your sub-domain hosting >>
If you are not planning to use our Managed DNS Service, then you need to add a Star Record to allow sub-domains on your Web Hosting package to begin working. Click here to find information about what DNS Records to add on your own Name Servers for activating your sub-domain hosting >>
2. If you have created an Alias for your Web Hosting package and want sub-domains of each alias to also point just like your hosted Domain Name, then you need to create a Star DNS Record for each aliased Domain Name, to point to your hosted Domain Name.
Example:
Suppose you have a Linux Web Hosting package for yourdomain.com and also a sub-domain news.yourdomain.com. Then say, you decide to set an alias for this package as yourotherdomain.com. To accomplish this, all you need to do is create an Address Record (DNS) for yourotherdomain.com to point to the IP Address of yourdomain.com.
yourotherdomain.com IN A 86400 1.1.1.1 (assuming that this is the IP Address of yourdomain.com)
But say you want news.yourotherdomain.com to function as well, then you would instead need to create a Star Address Record (DNS) for yourotherdomain.com
*.yourotherdomain.com IN A 86400 1.1.1.1 (assuming that this is the IP Address of yourdomain.com)
The Managed DNS Service for yourotherdomain.com could either be purchased through Gossimer or with your current DNS Service Provider.

3. If someone types http://php.news.yourdomain.com in the browser, then our web server will try to fetch the content from http://yourdomain.com/php.news/
If you want http://php.news.yourdomain.com to forward to http://yourdomain.com/news/php/, then you would need to add an alias for yourdomain.com as news.yourdomain.com (assuming that the Star Address Record for yourdomain.com exists).

Follow the instructions below to begin integration with the API using Perl -
Make sure you have read the General API Integration Instructions first. If you have already integrated the PERL API Kit at your end, read the Change Log first to know what has changed since.
Reference:
General API Integration Instructions >>
Change Log >>
Step 1. Download the API Kit
Click the link below to download the relevant API kits (updated on 6th March, 2008).
PERL_CoreKIT_v3_10.zip
PERL_DomainsKIT_v3_10.zip
PERL_HostingKIT_v3_10.zip
PERL_OtherProductsKIT_v3_10.zip
Step 2. Download the API Documentation
The complete documentation of all classes and methods available in the API can be found in the Docs below. The Docs below are javadocs, but the function names and explanations remain the same for all the platforms and the documentation is self explanatory. We recommend you download the docs and read through them completely once before you integrate your application (updated on 6th March, 2008).
Core_Docs_v3_10.zip

Instructions to pass parameters to functions using the Perl Kit
Since Perl uses typeless variables you will have to ignore the datatypes presented in the docs. But for assigning values to variable of types other than strings and integers special care will have to be taken. Below is the list of datatypes presented in the API Doc and their usage in Perl.
|
Java Data |
Types Assigning values in Perl |
| String |
“firstname@secondname.com” |
| int |
123 |
| HashMap (Datatype for storing name-value pair) |
{“domain1.com”=>1,”domain2.com”=>1} |
| Array and Vector (Datatype for storing more than one value) |
["ns1.domain.com","ns2.domain.com"] |
| boolean (Datatype for storing true or false) |
TRUE / FALSE |
Example:
For Calling a Function which takes a String datatype and an integer datatype as its paramters
public int function1(java.lang.String userName, int parentid)
$result = $obj->function1(“firstname@secondname.com”,1);
For Calling a Function which takes a HashMap, a String Array and an integer Array as its parameters, where domainHash contains the domainname and the number of years as name value pairs.
public java.util.HashMap function2(java.util.HashMap domainHash, java.lang.String[] orderby, int[] resellerId)
$result = $obj->function2({“domain1.com”=>1,”domain2.com”=>2},["column1","column2"],[22,33])
For Calling a Function which takes a Vector and a boolean as its parameters
public java.lang.String function3(java.util.Vector nameServers, boolean add)
$result = $obj->function3(["ns1.domain.com","ns2.domain.com"],TRUE)
Step 3. Extract the files from the API Kit archive
You should get the following directory & files structure
cgi-bin/ – Pre-written examples. You can directly run these examples to test API functionality
lib/ – The Perl classfiles, library files and wsdl files that you need to run your application
Step 4. Run the examples
You can run the pre-written examples provided in the “examples” folder. Note the following steps to do so -
1. Upload the “examples” and “lib” folders to your web server where you run your Perl scripts. Make sure that both these folders are uploaded to the same parent folder.
2. You must have a recent version of Perl installed on the server.
Please do NOT use a version of SOAP-Lite newer than 0.60, which is the current stable release.
3. You must have a Demo account ready the first time. Read the General instructions if you have not yet setup your demo account. Reference: General API Integration Instructions >>
The Demo server duplicates all functionality of the live server, however all Domain Names will appear as available on the Demo Server. It does not query the live registry and therefore names which are not available on the live registry will still appear as available on the Demo Server. At times connectivity to the DEMO Registry may be down resulting in errors.
4. Make the appropriate changes to the “constants.cgi” file in the “cgi-bin” folder, by putting in the values for your “username”, “password” and “parentid”. The remaining settings have already been made for you in this file. You may only need to change the path for the “wsdl” folder if you have uploaded the wsdl folder elsewhere.
5. The URL to which the call is made is maintained in the “config.sh” file inside the “lib” folder. You can make changes to this file and redirect your calls to the appropriate server.
6. Import and point to note is that you will have to execute the config.sh file from the cgi-bin directory after making any changes in this file to reflect the changes.
7. Every Example file has a set of functions which you can run.
8. Once you have modified the appropriate example file, access it over your webserver by putting in your URL such as http://yourserver/examples/html and choose the required function from the links given in the left frame.
In registering/managing any domain name on the demo server always use ns1.onlyfordemo.net and ns2.onlyfordemo.net as your nameservers. ANY OTHER Nameserver will result in an INVALID NAMESERVER error.
Step 5. Understanding Errors
Make sure you have read the General API Integration Instructions to obtain links to the error format and possible error documents. Reference: General API Integration Instructions >>
Step 6. Writing your own code
After running each example above, if you simply refer to the corresponding .Perl file in the lib folder you will easily be able to figure out the code snippet you need to write in order to make a similar call.
Making an API call to perform any action is a matter of three steps:
(i) Include the appropriate Perl package as below
use lib::Customer;
(ii) Obtain a pointer to the required Class. This is done by using the code below
our $Customer = new Customer($debugMode);
(iii) Call the required method on this object. A complete reference of all methods is available in the Docs folder. This can be achieved by using the code below
$Customer->wsdlURL($wsdlFile);
$Customer->StartServices()
my @param = ($SERVICE_USERNAME, $SERVICE_PASSWORD, $SERVICE_ROLE, $SERVICE_LANGPREF, $SERVICE_PARENTID, $customerUserName, $customerPassword, $name, $company, $address1, $address2, $address3, $city, $state, $country, $zip, $telNoCc, $telNo, $altTelNoCc, $altTelNo, $faxNoCc, $faxNo, $customerLangPref);
You will notice above that EVERY method in the docs takes the same first 5 parameters as below
String SERVICE_USERNAME, String SERVICE_PASSWORD, String SERVICE_ROLE, String SERVICE_LANGPREF, int SERVICE_PARENTID
In the examples these parameters have been put into a single constants file from which they are accessed by including the constants file. These parameters are common no matter which method you call. These parameters mean the following
String SERVICE_USERNAME: Your UsernameSERVICE_PASSWORD
String : Your PasswordSERVICE_ROLE
String : This will always be a string "reseller"SERVICE_LANGPREF
String : The 2 letter code of the language in which you wish to receive errors and descriptions - "en" for EnglishSERVICE_PARENTID
int : The ID of your parent which you can get from your profile section
Step 7. Change the information to Live information when you are ready
Once you have followed the steps above and got the test examples to work successfully, you can duplicate the same code in your live application and replace the Demo Server and Reseller account information with your live username and password. You will make this change in the “config.sh” file in the “lib” folder
