It took Francisco a while (no worries, we can wait!), but previous offer from BuyVM is back! Francisco has restocked their servers and you can now order from their website again. For $15/year you can get the following VPS:
- 128MB guaranteed/256MB burstable memory
- 15GB storage
- 500GB/month data transfer
- OpenVZ/SolusVM
Servers are with HE.net in Fremont. I have actually ordered one this time — 256MB/512MB memory, 30GB, 1TB/month data for $35/year to backup my production servers in Fremont. Missed out last time due to procrastination :P It allows full burst to 2 cores of Xeon L5420 and seems to be pretty fast so far. It also comes with 16 IPv6 addresses.

LEA (LowEndAdmin) is the original founder of LowEndBox and the visionary who gave rise to an entire movement around minimalist, efficient hosting. In 2008, LEA launched LowEndBox with a simple but powerful idea: that it was possible to run meaningful applications, web servers, VPNs, mail servers, and more – on small, low-cost virtual machines with minimal resources.
At a time when most infrastructure discussions were dominated by high-end servers and enterprise platforms, LEA championed the opposite approach: lightweight Linux distros, self-managed servers, open source software, and thoughtful optimization. This philosophy gave birth to the term “Low End Box”, which would come to define a new genre of hosting tailored to developers, tinkerers, and budget-conscious users around the world.
Through LowEndBox and its companion forum, LowEndTalk, LEA built the foundation for what would become one of the most active and enduring communities in the hosting world, prioritizing knowledge-sharing, transparency, and accessibility.
After several years of nurturing the site and community, LEA stepped away from active involvement, passing the torch to a new generation of admins, contributors, and moderators. Today, LEA remains a respected figure in the LowEnd ecosystem, credited with launching a platform and philosophy that continues to influence thousands of infrastructure providers and users globally.
LowEndBox’s legacy, and its thriving community, is a direct result of LEA’s original vision.

out of stock again
Which plan?
There’s stock available :)
Francisco
aha, node9 is online
I grabbed one of these last time and it has been running beautifully ever since!
@Hughesey
same here! // to subscribe :D
Ordered One. Waiting for it to be provisioned.
Glad it’s all working well :)
Sucks that we’re down the page a little bit now, was hoping to bask at the top of the page more :D
Francisco
@Francisco — I am sure you’ll sell your boxes in no time.
I ordered a case and paid, but the status is pending for 3 hours… i already submit a ticket for that, still no response?
i want to know how long will the VPS be activated as normal case?
do they have any live chat support in working time or 24*7
how to get ipv6?
I would definitely grab one but do they support moneybookers?
@Sam
We have IRC, you can join us at:
network: irc.dairc.net
channel: #frantech
I’ll get someone to process your order soon :) It’s still the weekend so we’re running a bit sort.
@id – IPv6 is enabled by default
@marko – Open a ticket with sales and we can likely fill your needs :)
Francisco
@LEA – Ah I’m just joking around ;)
Fran
I have a question here, according to the netcraft
http://uptime.netcraft.com/up/graph/?host=buyvm.net
Netblock Owner is : 123Systems Solutions
so any relationship between another VPS provider:
http://www.123systems.net/
123systems colocates in our rack and HE screwed up the swip on our 72.52.102.0/24 subnet.
If you check, though, customers are on 199.19.224.0/22 and 205.185.112.0/20 which are both in our names :)
Francisco
I’m already paid in buyvm for BuyVM – BuyVM-256MB, it’s been some hours since the payment made, until now didnt get any email for ip,etc.
And already submit ticket, still didnt get any responses.
Beny
@Beny same as you, seems they’re in weekend, nobody handle tickets
@Sam is today still weekend ? (I’m outside of US). I have another vps, they still reply my tickets for 24H.
Does the buyvm have another rule ?
Finally, my VPS is ready.
It’s 1:41 AM :)
As I said, we only had myself on, I told my other staff to take the night off since they spent the past 3 days running heavy shifts with me. I’m glad everything is good though.
Thanks,
Francisco
@Fransisco, Thank you very much, btw is the tun/tap already enabled ?
Hi Beny,
It should be! PPTP, IPGRE and quite a few others as well. If it isn’t, just let us know and we’ll check into why.
Thanks!
Francisco
Is it still available.
Shows me “Out of Stock” message :(
The 128MB and 256MB packages are out of stock…. again! :(
@Fransisco, if I upgrade to 512/1 GB, is there any changes to my content/configuration ?
Current is 256/512 MB
@Francisco Can I upgrade to 512/1024 MB without loosing any datas ?
Currently is 256
Out of Stock
We are currently out of stock on this item so orders for it have been suspended until more stock is available. For furthur information, please contact us.
We’re adding nodes right now, should have more stock in the next little bit :)
@Beny – sure can, you just gotta pay for the difference and will have a reboot.
Thanks!
Francisco
We have added more of each stock :)
We’re still spinning up more nodes but for sure you guys should have no issues getting in some orders if you’re quick ;)

to those using vpn, r u having problems? i am having issue connecting internet.. just want to confirm w/ other users..
and out of stock again :o/
@Matrix, I’ve configured openvpn inside my vps,it’s running well without any issues.
@Bob – We’re adding some very soon :)
@Matrix – If you’re needing help just come by our IRC :)
Francisco
Beny, what guide are you using? I was using http://vpsnoc.com/blog/how-to-setup-a-vpn-server-on-a-centos-vps-instantly/ then used SNAT for masquerading (as advised by buyvm support) as I was having this error http://pastie.org/1168346. I never had issue using that guide on Quickweb VPS before. I can open ssh but can’t surf/ping websites.
Francisco, I actually had support ticket asking to execute the commands state on that vpn guide but staff insists me to use SNAT.
and oh, I’m not a fan of IRC. :p
@Matrix – It was probably a XEN vps which works different.
Anyways, MASQURADE isn’t supported on our VM’s yet, so that’s why we say to use SNAT like people have been :)
Are you using OpenVPN-AS?
Francisco
@matrix, I’m using debian, my tutorial is my personal blog (beny.co.cc)
But I think the configuration is same, the different is only the technic to install (in debian using apt-get , in centos using yum).
It’s OpenVZ.
I understand.
It’s OpenVPN GUI is what I am using.
@Matrix, this is the guide address http://beny.co.cc/2010/08/19/configuring-openvpn-as-server-gateway-and-client/
Thanks, Beny. Will try that out. Debian would be perfect to match for that LEB’s guide. ;)
@Matrix, please let me know if you get any troubles, I don’t mind to help :)
Out of Stock
Very soon :) Just check back in a few more hours
Test IP and Test files plz
Hey Asim,
Same as usual :)
IP: 199.19.224.1
DL: http://buyvm.net/100mb.test
Fran
Thanks, that was quick, as usual. When will it be restocked?
@Franscisco, how do I upgrade to 512/1024, Actually I already submitted ticket, until now didnt get any responses
Still out of stock :-( 13:12 GMT time.
I hope that they will stock up soon
still can’t order.
Stock added to all plans :)
Get at ’em!
Francisco
Got it.
I guess provisioning takes a bit longer than usual?
setups get processed every 20 – 30 minutes or so. We’ve been having a weird bug where solus randomly chooses to not provision certain people :(
Francisco
Hm, do I need to have to open a ticket or shall I wait? I order like an hour ago.
Got my order in just now. Missed out on availability yesterday. Thankfully got my order in this time. :)
Hi Jeff,
Check your IP, if it starts with 208 you got a miss configure so check inside of solus for your actual IP. When I was binding all of our new ARIN’d IP space, I must have slipped and just never noticed it.
Francisco
Thanks Francisco! My order is still pending. I’ll check it out as soon as it is provisioned.
Hi Jeff,
If it’s still pending you’ll get a correct IP :)
We had a hand full of setups get the incorrect address.
Francisco
@Francisco – Account was provisioned, but something went awry with the process as the VPS wasn’t actually online. Dropped a ticket over to support and it is up and running now. Just an FYI in case you’re still debugging the process.
What’s the price for the second year？
$15 :)
We’ve never up’d our prices on either company – ever.
Francisco
@Francisco
What does this mean?
“No Management or Support”
I understand that its un-managed but why no support? Can you explain?
Asim,
There is support to help with issues that are on our end and giving advise, but we don’t staff people around to help install things for you.
We have our IRC community (and a forum soon) that already provides community based support. I also spend a good part of my day in the channel interacting with customers of ours – be it in general joking around, nerd chat or even helping them with things.
The reason for the writing is to not have to deal with the possible fall out that could come from a user that hasn’t a clue how to work with linux. We’ve refunded more than a few customers in our days as from day one they needed lots of help.
Francisco
@Francisco Thanks :) that clarifies everything. Going to order now
node09 is down for past 30 minutes.
Asim,
You’re welcome to join us on IRC for a lot of laughs and direct interaction from most of the staff. You have to have a easy going sense of humor, though ;)
Fran
We’re checking over node09 now, it’ll be a few as it spins up users :)
Thanks,
Francisco
my vps has been reboot for 5 times in 2hr…
Hi there,
We know, we’ve found a crash bug in OpenVZ that we’re reporting right now as we speak. For now we’ve stopped it from happening again, but it can be triggered by a user and will panic a node instantly.
Each time node09 took a dive we saw it and addressed it instantly, though.
Thanks,
Francisco
since node 9 is not stable enough
do i have any choice to use the other node
09 is stable :)
For what it’s worth all new installs of 128’s are going on node10.
Thanks!
Francisco
@Francisco can you please take a look into my ticket 590718? thanks
128 MB out of stock.
Hi HK,
We’re currently adding more 128’s and 256’s as we speak :)
We’ll have stock sometime in the morning.
Thanks!
Francisco
[node 9] is still rebooting occasionally
until now, the uptime is NOT longer than 1 day.
node09 is the only one suffering that issue.
We’ve applied an additional fix since it seems that there is more than just 1 – 2 apps triggering it.
Francisco
it’s not fair for the user on [node 9]
You’re right, that’s why we filed a bug report and have had someone waiting for a developer in the OpenVZ bugzilla & IRC channel to try to resolve it.
The fix we’ve applied stops it from happening but it’s by no means a ‘clean’ fix.
We’re addressing it, I promise :)
Francisco
Node 8 is down,
before just selling stuff, make the machine stable.
Francisco, I’m begging you.
would you please turn my vps on?
It goes off automatically.
i have two vps with you, but one goes off and comes back on so slowly,
and then the other goes off automatically.
I asked this via ticket. Nobody cares for it.
Would you please turn them on now?
Is node8 down or something?
Hi Matrix,
There shoulda been a notice/announcement about node08 having a RAID driver conflict. We’re nearly done adjusting it and it’ll be back to normal :) 06, 07 & 10 aren’t showing this issue so we think it’s possibly just an old firmware.
Thanks,
Fran
@Francisco
You guys ruined my uptime of ______________34 days______________ on node04 today :P
Okay. I haven’t receive any mail yet though.
@Francisco Dias – I hope the problem will be resolved soon.
@Linda – Anthony is finishing all of yours and you got one on node08 which will be online very soon :)
We almost have 08 back online, it’s just in the last stages.
Francisco
@Francisco
128MB VPS is out of stock :(
Do You know when will be again available ?
Will You have similar VPS offer in Europe in the future ?
Hi Francisco
1. can I enable quick backup via vps manager (BuyVM-256MB) ? (coz if I want to upgrade to 512, as what you had told to me that I have to backup it first).
I already clicked via vps manager, but it said my vps is not enabled yet
2. I checked via whatismyipaddress.com for my ip 199.19.224.78, the result is
IP Information: 199.19.224.78
ISP:
Organization:
Connection:
Proxy: None Detected
City:
Region:
Country: Canada
In my vps manager the location is Fremont USA
Please kindly give me the explanation for the above questions.
Thanks
Hi Anthony,
Same question. please view Ticket #656798
I’ve been waiting for your operation the whole night.
thank you.
you have already cram too many user in a server,
stop overselling !!!!!
For what it’s worth, my BuyVM IP address gets reported as being in China by MaxMind. Geolocation services don’t always get it right.
@David, thank you very much for it, so my question on number 2 is solved.
@Fransisco, how do I get quick backup in my vps manager ?
@Jason – What seems to be the issue? We’ve kept a very close eye on all of our gear and everything has been performing fantastic since we changed out our drivers for older ones (go figure).
@David – Ya, both of our subnets are fresh from ARIN so they aren’t geolocated properly yet, but hopefully soon :(
@Beny – I’ll see about enabling quick backups. You don’t need it to upgrade, though, the upgrade usually doesn’t even need a reboot :)
Francisco
@Francisco, do u still have a slot for 512 ?
We’re loading up more nodes for all of the plans that are out of stock right now :)
So, hopefully by later today, we’ll have nodes ready for 128’s, 256’s and 512’s!
Francisco
@Francisco Dias
Add more stock to 128, I recommended you to a friend and he wanted to buy one today, but it is out of stock. :)
@Francisco, pls let us know if those thing ready.
Thank you
Hi Beny,
Of course :) I’ll keep everyone updated.
Also, thanks again to everyone for their patience while we corrected that RAID driver issue. Everything has been performing fantastic since :D
Francisco
Oh shit. Its out of stock. :(
@Flyah
We’ll have some soon! :D
Keep an eye on here and WHT
Francisco
@Fransisco Dias – Is node08 stable or is it still on close lookup?
node08 has been just fine since we implemented our own fix :)
It’s not perfect so once a new kernel is out we’ll plan a reboot, but this one will actually BE planned ;)
Francisco
@Fransisco Dias – Ok I’ll just play around a little bit, and I’ll start it as one of my production servers whenever the support team is ready merging all my VPS into one control panel.
Don’t overwork and stay healthy. Muchas Gracias.
anyone having this problem on centos-32? did some google and it says that its because of the template. any idea how to fix?
http://pastie.org/1179972
@Matrix – are you using kloxo? If yes, login through ssh and type: script/fix-yum-install
yes i am. tried that but it fail.
http://pastie.org/1180042
@Matrix – What Centos version do you have? I’ve upgraded the original Centos 5.3 from BuyVM 128MB OpenVZ to Centos 5.5 32bit before installing Kloxo.
I have had that experience on other OpenVZ machine (not BuyVM) It was Centos 5.4, and I have to reboot the VPS everytime I finish installing something. What I did was reinstall the OS and update it (yum update) before installing kloxo. It also happens when I tried to install kloxo to a 64bit Centos.
I see. Gonna reinstall it then. Thanks man!
@Matrix – No problem bro :)
Unsurprising, those files don’t exist.

That’d do it!
I’m going to check around to see if there is a newer kloxo template but so far i’ve only found that one.
You could try installing kloxo from the install script and not the template?
Francisco
@Gary – Yeah, I think that’s some of the glitch that needs to be updated by Kloxo development team. The link points to Centos 5.1 – it’s too old.
http://mirror.centos.org/centos/5.1/readme
http://mirror.centos.org/centos/5/os/i386/CentOS/yum-3.2.22-26.el5.centos.noarch.rpm
That’s the one you want, or
change every instance of
http://mirror.centos.org/centos/
to
http://vault.centos.org/
ie
http://mirror.centos.org/centos/5.1/os/i386/CentOS/yum-3.0.5-1.el5.centos.5.noarch.rpm
becomes
http://vault.centos.org/5.1/os/i386/CentOS/yum-3.0.5-1.el5.centos.5.noarch.rpm
Might be worth someone taking a few minutes to fix the scripts in the image.
I want to know if [node 9] will reboot again
and do you fix the problem yet
No nodes will ever reboot unless:
– There is a physical error (RAID issue, etc)
– Planned reboot (we’ll give notice on the network status page of our helpdesk)
– kernel panic (very uncommon)
With that being said, node09 has been fine since our last adjustment. We do hope to apply a new kernel update but given the lock ups it suffered this week we’ll be postponing that for a while yet.
Thanks for the interest and I apologize for the headaches caused
Francisco
@Matrix, if you still have kloxo problem,
do this;
vi /etc/resolv.conf
# Google DNS
nameserver 8.8.8.8
nameserver 8.8.4.4
@john
Oh please don’t expect regular people to know how to use vi :P
Simpler way to accomplish that would be
echo nameserver 8.8.8.8 > /etc/resolv.conf
echo nameserver 8.8.4.4 >> /etc/resolv.conf
ya, but you need # Google DNS, too.
No stock are available T_T
No you don’t, john. # denotes a comment. :)
you know what I meant
That’s right… they’re out of stock.
We’re using 4.2.2.1 so you should have no problems with resolvers. We’re installing our own resolvers soon since 4.2.2.1 gets sluggish at times (it’s quite possible they start rate limiting).
Francisco
You can always fix a VPS by doing sudo rm -Rf /
Then it wont work, but it wont be broken!
@ John I’ve no idea what you meant. You said you needed it. You don’t. Simple as that.
@Francisco
is there any E.T.A. on stocking up VPS solutions?
In the morning :)
Francisco
Thank you. Please post a note here…
I would like one or two.
Best regards
I’m really interested in this plan too. Great for students.
I promise, we’ll have some in the morning :)
We have the nodes all prepped so we’ll be loading a lot of stock in the morning. At this point it’s 2:00 AM so i’ve let my sales staff get some shut eye before the zoo lets loose ;)
Francisco
Stock is loaded people :)
Francisco
Completed my order. Waiting on wellcome e-mail.
Tnx
not auto provision?
@John – not always, it’s hit/miss at times. We do extra fraud checks but we do check/mass provision orders on a constant basis.
Francisco
Just got one and now logged in.
Just got mine, took them 30 minutes to load mine up. All I can say nice work. Hope i will not have mutch down time.
Tnx
I’ve got one too.
Still loving my BuyVM VPS :). Keep up the good work Francisco!
We’ll keep at it :)
Thanks for the kind words!
Francisco
@Francisco, When the 512 ready?, I want to upgrade my 256 to it.
Beny,
We have plenty? Just log a ticket with billing ;)
Francisco
I was ordering a new vps but it Looks like my cancellation request for my vps before didn’t go through and now I got a Late fee?
@Flyah – Log a ticket with billing and we’ll get it addressed quickly for ya’
Francisco
Need days to get 512 plans, but just succes made order a few minutes ago. Feels like a winner, even the box not setup yet lol
Well glad you were able to pick it up :)
Thanks for the patience while we added more stock ;)
Francisco
Hi Fran, my box just active. But, I don’t see any IPv6 in my box. I just send a ticket request for IPv6. Thanks.
@Hasanul,
Did you do ifconfig to see?
We don’t mention the IPV6 in the email nor on solus since solus doesn’t show it.
Thanks,
Francisco
@Fran, oops, I didn’t check at my box yet, just see at my solus. I’ll check it. Thanks Fran :)
Gee, node12 is so slow, is it only me?
Hi John,
What’s slow?
Francisco
Got one of the first ones with the new stock, and I’m really loving it till now. Already got node.js deployed with websockets working too, which was really great!
Great work Francisco.
Thank you for the positive feedback :)
Francisco
A few mintues ago, I’ve got one too. wish Wish Me Luck
For what it is worth, my VPS has been online and flawless since I ordered it a few days ago (excluding a reboot initiated by me).
09:40:44 up 6 days, 1:39, 1 user, load average: 0.00, 0.00, 0.00
Notes to all — please use the official support channel to contact BuyVM.
As a final note, Beny, you’re good to go
Sorry about that, LEA
Fran
@LEA, I’m very sorry for this
@Francisco, thank you very much, my vps is already upgraded without any reboot. It’s great.
ipv6 now working for me after a support ticket.
With a socks proxy & the Google Chrome browser some browsing of the ipv6 network with an ipv4 only ISP.
my vps on Node11 is down, I’ve sent Cancellation Request Confirmation. Can i get $15 back by paypal or account credit? Thank you.
Ly,
everyone on 11 is coming back up. We’ve been having a recurring kernel error but it should be fine now. we can apply a credit with cancellation or you are welcome to ask for the time back that you’ve lost today/yesterday.
Just let my billing people know.
Sorry about the issue! :(
Francisco
@ly:
also my VPS is offline, node 11 :(
I’ve opened a ticket…
Everyone on 11 is on their way back up right now :(
11 was a part of a new kernel we rolled out to give some new features and a performance boost, but we’ve since then rolled back since this is the 2nd crash with it.
Thanks,
Fran
@Franscisco, I’been waiting 30 hours for response to my ticket about bandwidth parameter in solusvm.
Until now, there’s no response.
@Beny – That your BW graphs aren’t updating? The guys handed that off to me, i’ll have a reply for you in a little bit :)
Sometimes they forget to attach a note to the ticket saying who it’s being passed to, but there is at least a few standing tickets about graphs not matching correctly
Francisco
Hi Fran,
Thanks for your quick reply,
yes, i’ve submitted a Ticket as well (#868297),
can you ask your billing people to take a look, thank you.
yes, send me $15 account credit is fine, cos i’ll order your other stuff.
cheers,
@Francisco, Thank you for your prompt reply, my ticket id is 823383, looking forward your solution,
node 12 is down.
donw, down,. solus is not working, no answer.
big mistake.
Hello,
I was happy with my vps until today. 3 or 4 Downtime of an hour and no ticketanswers ?!
My Server is on Node 8
Also its shown down in the crontrol panel.
Please advise.
@LEA – It seems that The LowEndBox Kingdom has become a semi-customer-support :) I think this is a good sign. LEA has proven to be one of the best low end computing melting pot for customers and providers alike. I’m still waiting for new tips on handling the penguin world.
@Francisco Dias – you should build two forums for Frantech.ca and BuyVM.net or at least one that can handle the two market segments.
I can’t access their website now, can anyone?
Ops, it’s up now.
Been doing some changes to our DNS setup.
I blame myself for some of the website burps as of recent, same with solus. When we originally opened BuyVM we didn’t expect as much interest as we have been getting.
We’ve finally got node08, node11, node12 happy. While the kernel thing did help, we ended up simply doing a chassis swap since it seems this one is going to get an RMA. I’ll be posting a copy of the email/ticket we have with HE over this as well as a full write up in the next couple hours.
Thanks again everyone,
Francisco
Hi Francisco,
Thanks for your effort on node11, yesterday i submited a cancellation request, but today it seems that it’s working, so please ignore my cancellation request asap, my ticket is 530837
Thank you!
@Frank – Just let the guys know :)
Sorry about the issue, as I mentioned we’ll have a full RFO (Reason For Outage) later today about what we’ve done to make sure this is resolved.
Francisco
node 5 is down
node05 is just fine?
Can you please log a ticket? We’re going to get LEA back in here if we keep doing support in here ;)
Francisco
Node 8 is down again.
Ticket is open since 24h now :-(
node 11 is down and up and down and up and down :(

Node 11 down again :(
Open another ticket (#964371), I hope they finally make this node reliable or transfer my VPS to *really* realiable node because until now the uptime is very low…
11 is up 8 is down.
what’s next?
Oh, 11 down, 10 down. sorry
My vps on node 04 is showing out of disk space errors with very little actual space used. WTF?
Is there any word on E.T.A. of the node11, I’m a bit worried now.
@sjzri
English: You better type English here.
中文：在這裡你還是打英文吧。
10 up, 12 up, 11 down.
I’m on node11, the control panel slowly shows that I’m offline.
The ssh command line I’ve been using since 1647 BST still responds, sometimes slowly.
everything is up and fast.
no,
my server on node 8 is still down :-(
They have finally moved me from node08 to node10, VPS is now up.
Ops.. my VPS is down again.. seem like it was IP conflicts and this issue still not solved for me..
node 10 is very slow
Is it running a bit better?
We’ve been having nothing but headaches on this new batch of gear and have already had todo 2 chassis swaps and full OS reinstalls. We’re about ready to refit some of our previous equipment that we have for other projects just so we can have some proper sit down time with these ones.
Francisco
Node 5 is still out of HD space
@Francisco
You said you will renumber my IP address, when will it done? I’ve waiting this for more than 2 days already!
Working on 05 as well.
To get around the refits and trying to get things online we had to dump some on 05, but i’m working on it right now :)
Thanks for your patience,
Francisco
Got my new VPS with BuyVM (after about 12 hours wait, which is acceptable – though it would be good if they could “automate” the setup like some other providers).
While the ping times are good (should be, as I am in Asia and servers are with HE.net), the node is very slow :(. There seem to be more cores and more cache than some of the other VPS I have got (burst.net, virpus, others) – but BuyVM VPS is one of the slowest. There is a distinct delay in typing/ putty screen refresh :(.
Don’t take this as negative feedback yet – I will file a ticket with them to see if they can fix it and update here.
cheers,
JP
Hi JP,
What node are you on? Sorry about the late setup, we’ve been doing cleanup all day.
If you let me know I can take a peak. We’ve been doing touch ups and are planning to get a tech into the DC later this weekend to prep some other hardware.
Francisco
Hey Francisco,
That is quick response from you! I have filed a support ticket listing my IP address. Pardon my ignorance, how does one check the node one is on?
regards,
JP
I’m doing my best to get caught up. Right now we’ve been just getting replies out to everyone and any other minor adjustments needed.
Login to solus and it’ll say ‘nodeXX’
Thanks :)
Francisco
I am on node13.
I ordered my server 4 days ago and it still hasn’t been setup. I’ve opened a ticket and still haven’t received a response. Ticket #788548
Hi Derek,
4 days? you checked your account to see if the email had problems sending?
I got a tech working on your ticket now. Sorry about the delay either way!
Francisco
One important feedback, posting here as people should know. The BuyVM control panel login page is not secure (uses http, not https). I think you should change this.
Of the 5-6 providers I have tried so far, 2 did not have secure login – BuyVM and YDGH.
regards,
JP
For what it’s worth, what I do for the BuyVM SolusVM login is just change the url to https, and it works with a warning (looks like a self signed certificate, which is fine for me).
Thanks for the info David. I am glad it exists. Self signed is fine for me too. Fransisco – you can just change http to https in the email when you get time :)
Checking on 13, 13 is actually rebooting for a new kernel since the .27 one is garbage. Should be OK in the next few :)
Also, you’re right on the HTTP/HTTPS thing. We already have planned to pickup an actual SSL but at this time it isn’t a priority.
Fran
@Francisco
Do you fixed my issue? I’m waiting there…
would you take care of ticket ##452819 ?
It’s not a big stuff, but you can use the space.
Hi Linda,
OK, we’ll get that finished up. Sei, I’m also working on yours.
Francisco
get some sleep, you can do all these tomorrow.
Sei,
Please see your ticket :)
Linda,
Can’t, people pay for a service and we have to make sure it’s working properly :) everything is running smooth on the nodes now, just finishing off with node 05 and we’ll be golden again.
Francisco
@Francisco
Thanks. It seem working fine now.
Thank you Sei for the patience, sorry it took so long :(
Francisco
Thanks for your help, server still up until now.. everything seem fine now :)
any idea when you’ll be able to do more
We’ll have some ready for next week, right now we’re just making sure things are all smooth :)
There is going to be a planned downtime to our solus in the coming day or so so we can seperate it from the node it’s on.
Francisco
Update from me – After Francisco fixed the node, my VPS has been running fine and me happy so far :)
@JP – We have another batch of adjustments coming up this week or so :) We went with a different batch of gear (namely 5420 xeons), so we’ve been having to change how we handle a lot of things.
Thanks for the kind words and i’m happy it’s working well :)
Fran
I should add that it’s all node side and won’t require any actual downtime :)
Francisco
Anybody got a working ipv6 firewall?
Using Ubuntu 10.04 & ip6tables
From a ssh login
Reply from support ticket
Rebooted later, still can’t get anywhere.
I was advised to use a 64-bit OS inside my VPS in reply to the same issue. After reinstalling to 64-bit ip6tables worked fine.
rm: Will try that later, after a backup.
rm: Thanks,ip6tables no longer giving the error messages after changing to 64 bit.
Very unstable，It Will offline every day :-(
# uptime
20:29:51 up 12 days, 20 min, 1 user, load average: 0.09, 0.03, 0.00
@rm ,You’re a Lucky Guy. My vps on node11.
so true. if your vps is on node11 you are fucked. mostly down and no explanation given.
people on node08/node10 have had no issues at all since we finished the shuffle around on it. Node11 had a kernel panic this morning that we’re checking into, but other than that things have been fine on the new gear. If you like, Wanjie, We can put you on 08 or the new node10 going up in a little bit?
We’ll be loading up stock in the next little bit.
Francisco
@Francisco Dias
Thank you.
Now uptime was over 6 hour.
I hope it can last for months rather than several hours ：-）
I do not want such an incident happen again。If node 11 offline again.I will consider migrating to a new node。
Francisco Dias@ people on node08/node10 have had no issues at all?
I was on Node 10 and node 11, yesterday one up and one down.
this morning, up-one down and down-one was up.
Now, you moved my node 10 vps to node 8 and becomes lot slower than before.
How long would this contune?
Everyday, something happens, up & down and up & down.
Uh?
Everyone from node10 got pushed to node08 last week, all we did yesterday was correct the solus assignment.
We’re keeping an eye on it and waiting on some final memtests and the likes on a few of the broken nodes before we can re-roll them to take some people off 08. 08 is a little busier than we like but it’s stable :)
There’s no way you’ve had anything on node10 since node10 has been decom’d since Friday or so.
Please let me know or email me at admin@frantech.ca and I can check into your stuff personally :)
Fran
Really, I was on node 10 yesterday, check ticket #297158, #774836
I don’t know, do whatever you want.
I’m sick of it now.
Linda,
When it said you were on 10, did it show you as online or offline in solus? :) If it showed you offline, it means you were actually on 08 and your solus simply wasn’t updated. I know you talked to Shane yesterday and that’s when he brought it to my attention. The only thing that happened yesterday was an update to solus telling it you were on 08.
The best I can offer is putting you on some of our original nodes since you’ve been jumping around nodes already. The other nodes (nodes 1 – 5) had anywhere from 30 – 40 day uptimes (I think most of them are still around that right now).
We’ve released some gear from another project to buyvm so we are using the same equipment we did as the first nodes for now until we get things settled with the L5420’s we got.
I’m more than willing to apply a credit to your VM’s so then your own customers won’t be as angry, just let me know.
Francisco
Francisco Dias @
i was on Node 5 originally, you guys moved me around so many times, I even forgot where I first started.
Now you offer me to move back to 5? What I don’t understand is that why you are kicking me around?
i even gave up my space so that you could free up HD for better/smooth operation, you probably don’t remember what I did. Because the server was up and down so many times, I had to buy other vps from other
provider. So at this point, do whatever you want, move or whatever, don’t care anymore.
@Linda – 05 ran out of space because of us moving people there to try to correct the old nodes.
You’re welcome to send me an email so we can go over it since I do want to resolve this for you, be it in some sort of refund or a standing credit, your choice.
Thanks,
Francisco
sent pm.
Thanks Linda, i’ll have a reply for you in the next little bit.
For those that have been waiting, we have more 128MB stock available on a fresh node :) This is using dual quad Xeon 5520’s, a bit faster than the L5420’s we have for some of the other nodes.
We’re adding stock for the 256 & 512 plans right now so give us a bit.
Thanks!
Francisco
@buyvm customer – Any ticket opened about the issue has had a report, but we’ll do better to put up announcement/status reports.
Francisco
@wanjie – Thank you for your patience :) Just let us know. If node11 does it again we’ll pull everyone off it like we did 10 and put it up for repairs.
Francisco
@Francisco Dias
too bad, my vps Status: Offline. I can’t boot it.
what’s happening.So unstable。
please help me move to new node .
@Francisco Dias
vps:~# uptime
11:02:25 up 6:37, 1 user, load average: 0.00, 0.00, 0.00
Connecting to https://my.frantech.ca/: 500 – Internal Server Error
(so I can’t even open a ticket…)
I’m on node 11.
At this point I think You should provide us a *REALLY* stable VPS or move us to a *REALLY* stable node *AND* start to offer us a better service or a sort of refund ! (like add 1 month or some free RAM…)
Francisco, would You buy a VPS from yourself with so many downtime and issues ?
Francisco Dias @ While waiting for your email, my vps on node 11 went down again.
See my point of up & down, up & down?
@linda
I know what you mean up@down now.
my vps on node 11 went down again.
Yes, I’m also on node11. Filed a ticket earlier and the reason for the downtimes seems to be a recurring kernel panic. -> hardware trouble. Luckily I don’t need that particular vps right now, just wanted to configure it for later use. I can wait…
Info on that matter could be better though.
@DrFalken – If I got placed on a good node? of course! Node11 has been stable since we found where the problem is coming from. We’re still going to install a new node and, as I offered to Linda, you’re open to requesting a credit to your account for the problems on that node.
PS – The reason I’m replying to these PM’s at odd times is because LEA is releasing them as he see’s them :)
Thanks!
Francisco
I’ve finally created a ticket (#519605) after some Internal Server Error.
Francisco, do You think Node11 is a good node ? Try walking in our shoes…
We’ve paid for a VPS that has a very low uptime :(
I’m sure You’re trying to do the best to solve this problem and make your customers happy but when I will really use this VPS for my project 6-7 hours uptime will make me move immediately to another provider…
Node11 has been corrected as far as we can see. We’re still installing a new node as we said just in case, as well as giving it a hardware boost to a Xeon 5520, but we will be live migrating users so you won’t even notice a reboot if we can help it.
The ‘internal error’ part may have been from when backups were running, our primary webserver also handles advertisement handling for some communities we own/manage.
We know last weeks batch of nodes have been very moody and we’re working extremely quickly to resolve all of the quirks that come up. As I also mentioned to Linda, you’re welcome to email me directly if you wish to voice anything else on your mind :)
Francisco
Fine, I appreciate this fast feedback and I’m confident my VPS will be fine now.
But swear :) that if this will happen again You’ll move us to a 99.99% uptime node ;)
Another node11 “victim”
please check my ticket 530837,
why not rectify the issues on node11 completely, or
move everyone on node11 to other nodes. Thanks.
Hi Frank,
The node11 crashes only started in the past day or so and so provisioning another node takes a bit of time. We’ve already got a node on hand that we know works without issue so we will be moving everyone either way :)
Francisco
Hi Francisco,
I have faith in your ability to succeed,
A person can survive without water for 3 weeks and 2 days without food, node11 users can survive without changing nodes for 3 weeks as well. Thank you.
Frank
correction: without food for 3 weeks and 2 days without water
francisco, do you allow ptunnel run on the vps?
That’s perfectly fine :)
Francisco
I went with this offer earlier today as my first ever VPS. After ordering, my box was ready and running in less than 5 minutes. Next, I did the WordPress/NginX/PHP/MySql botstrap (http://www.lowendbox.com/blog/wordpress-cheap-vps-lowendscript/) which went very smoothly and took less than 3 minutes. So far so good!
I’m just stuck as I don’t know how to work the rest out. Can anyone tell me where my wordpress install is located when I browse ftp?
/var/www/yourblog.com
I can’t understand, my vps on node11 still shows offline,
now you guys start selling new 128mb vps again?
Does this mean we are not important, and can be just ignored, our hard-earned moeny and time can be wasted?
Now you keep receiving more money before rectify any issues on old nodes?
Francisco, please advise.
my ticket is 530837, if there’s no any solutions or reasons, I’ll look buyvm as a scam company I’m afraid.
Francisco @ If you’re not going to respond to ticket #587934,
I want full refund on all of my vps, including credit, immediately.
I’m sick of it now.
My VPS is down too :(
Ticket #346873
Francisco, move node 11 VPS to a more stable node, please !!!
same here, ticket #190284. my patience is limited. as long as the issues with node11 are not fixed potential customers might want to reconsider their options.
Seems a lot of troubles with node11, or is that the case with all of the nodes?
From what I’ve read, half the nodes are having trouble. Hardware and software.
You can’t expect much in the way of performance for $15/year, but you can expect stability, and any problems to be sorted quickly. Seems to me like a few people are really losing patience with BuyVM’s apparent inability to make things work properly.
I’ve waited for a 2-3 weeks before i start biching about it, system uptime was allmost 16 hrs in one peace… So Fran do please move people from node 11, but i will go ahead and request my money back.
The vps ping around 800 from L.A, used to be around 20.
We’re already underway on the 11 move, it started a few hours ago.
We have node06 & 07 doing the same, things have been running great on the new ones.
:)
Finally we’re almost out of this annoying pit!
Francisco
Francisco Dias @ good, since you are doing something, wish you luck.
now I sent 3-4 tickets, none of them was answered.
Are you ignoring me or don’t care about request/complains?
No Linda,
I’m sorry, i’ve had to pull Anthony off tickets a bit to have him help me finish this. We aren’t ignoring any tickets purposely, just we’re trying to keep up with everything until this mess is cleaned (we’re close!)
Francisco
Here is the reply to my 2 tickets:
——–
Hello,
I’m sorry that you have had a bumpy ride, but we’ve been having quite the gong show cleaning up after the following nodes:
– node06
– node07
– node11
– node08
All were provisioned on new equipment we had purchased that all seem to suffer from the same issues, conflicts with RAID cards
(all of them), random kernel panics (node11), etc.
We’ve been doing heavy testing and trying to cleanup, which has caused us to move some of the stress off to our older nodes (nodes 1 – 5).
We currently have all of the marked bad nodes either migrating everyone off (nodes 6 & 7 are doing this as we speak), node08 was migrated
earlier in the week and node11 is currently doing a migration after, yet again, another kernel panic.
The node07 panic’s you may have had a few weeks ago are due to an easily triggerable kernel panic in all .18 based OVZ kernels. We found
the cause and as of the new 70.7 kernel already in testing, it has been fixed.
We hope to have everything balanced off and running as it should by the end of the weekend, hopefully more like the end of today
Any users suffering issues and wishes for a credit for it, you’re welcome to reply to this ticket and we’ll discuss what is possible. On
average we’re giving half to a full month of credit for the bumpy ride to people on the newer gear.
I’ll admit, I’ve been having to pull my support guys off tickets some to get them to help me, but we’ve always been asking people to drop
by IRC or even MSN me if they can so then we can discuss with them any issues we may be having a bit easier.
Whenever a node blows out (like node11 for instance) it causes us to get a bombardment of tickets and with myself and James being busy
working on the actual equipment (James being actually in Fremont for this), it has left only 2 – 3 people manning tickets.
As I said, I truely do apologize if it hasn’t worked to your expectations, you and I both are far from pleased with it. With that being
said, we are resolving it though and given the rate the vzmigrates are going, if you still want to see how the new nodes work, you’ll be
on them by dinner time, GMT -8
would you please answer the ticket #452819?
Is there anybody?
Good morning Linda!
I’ll have Anthony check on it.
For what it’s worth, the node replacement has been completed for all 3 problematic nodes :)
Users on node11 wanting proof, cat /proc/cpuinfo ;)
We’ve been hearing positive responses from people on both node06 & 07 so hurrah!
Thank you!

Really? the vps ping speed is over 500 from L.A.
Whats your IP address? Maybe I can do a ping/trace ?
Would you answer my ticket?
Please, don’t ignore anymore.
LA being?
Do a trace and email me it.

Hi Francisco,
Well done and keep up the good work.
cheers,
Frank
Linda,
Is your ping fixed now? We found that 08 didn’t get some of the kernel adjustments we give the rest of the nodes. We’ve rebotoed and upgraded the kernel as well since a new version is out. Our tests have shown fixed download speeds amongst latency being correct
Thanks!
Fran
Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo, I was about to hit 8 days of uptime, damn you.
Now back to the start =/
Forget it, just answer my ticket.
It’s been 48hrs now, but still having the same issues. Server is offline, can’t do a reinstall. I hope Francisco fixes it.
Out of stock again :(
node8, pptpd 619 error after reboot……
Oh come on, you don’t expect them to support your stupid Windows PPTP error numbers, do you.
VPS is unmanaged with no support beyond the VPS functionality. Rest is your problem, ssh into it and figure out yourself what’s wrong with your vpn.
@Francisco, Again node 6 down, what is going on ???
No more support enquiry here please. I’ll close the commenting just to be sure…
