Linux Hosting Cpanel

How do I upgrade CPanel, PHP, and MySQL, as well as install Python on a Linux server?
My friend is leasing his own server for the first time, and he has given me a reseller account. I would like to run a web host off of my reseller account, but the server does not have the latest version of CPanel, PHP, or MySQL, nor does it have Python installed. I do not have admin access to the server, but my friend does. He told me that he would upgrade all of these things for me if I could find out how. So here I am! If somebody could provide some kind of instructions...is it done through WHM?

There's a bunch of articles on this. Look for any "cookbook" on LAMP (Linux + Apache + Mysql + (Perl | PHP | etc).

How to Setup SMTP settings for linux server hosted website.?
im newly hosted my website. i got cpanel. in my website i need confirmation mail to registered users. when users registering by their yahoo mail id or other mail id's they not reciving conformation mails where as abc@abc.com confirmation mails. as website is for all. my members all to need confirmation mail from my site to their yahoo or other mail ids to continue as members in my site.. i need to know "SMTP MAIL Settings " expecting help from yu any one.. thanks in advance.

SMTP is a host's issue. The level to which it is enabled varies dramatically. For example, GoDaddy allows full mail functionality through PHP, while some host only let your receive mail through their webmail client. I strongly suggest you check with your hosting company. If you have already and they won't allow, you will have to buy a better package. My shameless plugs: http://blog.procontentanddesign.com http://www.imagemash.com

where and what should i do in my cpanel to paste the html code to get the desired logo on my website ?
i have a website hosted on apache server ie linux based server .since i am not good at using the cpanel ,can any webmaster help me out to paste the html codes so that i can have those ebusiness and logos uploaded in my websites. i have been doing it in blogs so far since its quite easy but with websites i am not familiar. in which icon should i click in the cpanel and where should i go and paste those html codes

The best thing to do is to get a FTP program like Ipswitch and upload the image where you want it. Then use dreamweaver, frontpage, microsoft webdesign (which I use) open the page that you want to insert the logo save it and upload it using the ftp software.... I have some tutorials here: http://www.custom-computerz.com/forums/tutorials/

Where should I put Classes and Deployment Descriptor of a website hosted on a linux server?
I have registered and hosted my JSP/Servlet based website on a Linux Server. I access that via CPanel. It shows me public_html directory. I want to as where should I put classes and deployment descriptor for my servlets? Thanks.. @William - Tomcat is installed on the server. i can confirm the only problem is that i am not able to access class files or even jsps that i have placed in /public_html/www or /public_html/www/WEB-INF/classes folder. I dont have access to shell account, etc. I just have access to CPanel. so echo $CATALINA_HOME wont be possible i am afraid. I have talked to the support they said: "You should place your JSP files in public_html/web_inf/JSP folder and place servlets,BEANS and java class files in public_html/web_inf/class folder." that I have but accessing those jsps (placed there) gives 404 error.

Sounds like you need to have the Tomcat server software running on that Linux server. You need to put your files under the "webapps" subdirectory that is under the Tomcat directories. If you have command line access, try giving the command echo $CATALINA_HOME That will show you where the top of the Tomcat tree is. The best thing really would be to talk to the support people for that Linux server. It is possible that it is not set up to handle JSP and Servlets, but only HTML. In any case, they should be able to tell you where to put your files. ------------ Have you tried these types of URLs: http://yourwebsite/web-inf/JSP/x.jsp (of course, replace the "yourwebsite" and the "x" with the names you really have) http://yourwebsite:8080/x.jsp Also, if you enabled email on your Answers account, I could email you. Or, you could email me by going to my account. Then we could resolve this and post the answer here.

can i get help regarding OS linux and unix .does these OS have soemthing equivalent to pws or IIS OR WINDOWSXP
I AM NOVICE INTO DESIGNING AND PROGRAMMING IN THE WEB.WHY DON'T YOU GUYS OUT THERE TELL ME MORE ABOUT THIS . I found out that using pws in windows 98 and 2000 pro or IIS in windows xp ,we don't need to code a dynamic interactive stuff since i provides all these in the wizard as a temlate in other office applications. But my newly hosted personal site was hosted in apache server which supports only linux and unix hence pws and iis work would go in vain although it looks good on the computer before its hosted or the files uploaded to my cpanel. I am new to linux and no nothing of UNIX (does it have gui version too) can you suggest some informative site about all this server stuff since its quite technically intricate for me atleast for the time being .

i actually am running an apache host on win2003 because i like it better than iis.
