The beget file manager does not work. Save file. Parallel text search in files taking into account file encoding

Hi all! in this article I will tell how to use file manager on Beget hosting. I wrote about this hosting in .

After registration, you will need to log into your account by entering your username and password. Find yourself in the main hosting menu, in which we click on the “File Manager” tab:

The top menu of the file manager looks like this:

Below will be a list of file folders with your sites. Clicking on the site folder will open a list of site files. The name, type, size, owner, attribute, and date the file or folder was modified will be displayed:

By right-clicking on a folder or file, a menu will appear with the option to do this or that action:

For example, we need to change the attributes on a folder, so we select the “Change Attributes” item and set the desired value:

A file manager is a very convenient tool for webmasters that saves time.

For example, to install a website for us on hosting through the file manager Runs enough in file manager In the top menu, click “Download Files”, then select the archive with the site on your computer and click “Download”. The archive with the site will instantly appear on the hosting, then right-click on it and select the “Unpack Archive” item. It also unpacks instantly in seconds. The site is installed, I think it's very cool. Through an FTP client this procedure would take much longer.

If you have not yet registered with Beget hosting, then do it right now by clicking on the button below, I also remind you that this hosting has a trial period of 1 month.

That's all! Good luck and good earnings!

To transfer a website running on a CMS to another hosting or local server, it is not enough to simply copy its files from one place to another; for the site to work, you also need to transfer all the data from the database.

Before you start migrating your site, be sure to create text file and write down all the data there - address, login and password to log into your hosting account, database name, username, database password, other necessary data

Regardless of which CMS you use, the migration process will consist of the following steps:

Actions on a local server (or old hosting)

1. Archiving site files archived in the format .zip

2. Export data from the database or, in other words, create a backup copy of the database. Simplified, this is all the data in our database, which is written in a text file with the extension .sql

Actions on a remote server (local server on another computer or hosting)

1. Copy the archive with the site files to the remote server and deploy it maintaining the folder structure

2. Check access rights to folders and files and, if necessary, change them.

3. Creating a new database. Remember (write down) the database name, username, password to the database

4. Import a backup copy of the database into the created database. (from a file with the extension .sql)

5. In the configuration file site change the old database name, username and password to the database for new ones

6. In the site configuration section change the paths to the files and temporary folders of the site to new ones(if it is needed)

How is he better than the rest?

Two-pane GUI

The file manager interface is made in the form familiar to the user: two areas for convenient work with files.
In each of them you can open files on a server, remote FTP or on your computer.

When displaying files in a table, you can easily sort files and directories by type, size, creation date, etc. by clicking on the header of any of the columns.

Drag&Drop function

You can work with files and folders using the mouse, dragging files and folders to the server or remote FTP and back, to do this, select the desired files and folders, grab them and drag them to the desired location.

Working with remote FTP

Click on the " Remote FTP" in order to connect to remote server from the file manager. You can save connections and edit them if necessary in the future.

You can open external FTP in both the left and right panels, and you can even do this simultaneously to work through a file manager with two completely third-party FTPs. In order to open the FTP of your hosting account, just click the button " Home FTP".

Tab interface

The tabbed interface allows you to open multiple files at once and manipulate them in the file manager area, similar to how you do it in the operating system.
This interface will make it convenient for you to work with several files at once, make it easy to copy code from one file to another, etc.

You can collapse or expand open files. You can also change the size open window as you wish. The files you have open are displayed at the bottom of the file manager in the tab bar.

You can manipulate windows as you wish, changing their size and arranging them on the screen in the desired order.

Basic functions for working with files

The file manager will allow you to perform all the basic functions for working with files and directories, such as: copying, moving, renaming, changing attributes, etc. Moreover, you can perform all these actions in a large number of ways.

1. Copy
In order to copy a group of files, you can select them with the mouse while holding down the button Ctrl. Then simply drag them to the desired location. As soon as you release the mouse button over the selected location, the file manager will display a dialog box asking whether you want to copy the files or not; if files with the same names exist, you will be prompted to overwrite the files.

You can also copy files or folders by selecting them and pressing the right button to bring up the context menu. Then you need to click the “Copy” button.

A few more ways to copy are to use the button in the menu " File" or the button at the bottom of the File Manager.

There is also a hotkey combination for quick access to the copy function - Ctrl + 5.

2. Moving
To move, you can use all the same methods as for copying, with the exception of " drag and drop". Hotkey combination for moving Shift + 5.

3. Renaming
To rename a file or directory, you can also use context menu, menu item in the drop-down menu " File"or a hotkey combination - Ctrl + 6.
Unlike copy and move this function is not group and can only be applied to one element.

After clicking the " Rename" You will see a dialog box to enter a change to the item name. Enter the new name and click " OK".

4. Changing attributes

To change the attributes of a file or directory, you can use the context menu or the menu item in the drop-down menu " File".

You can set file rights either in numerical format or by setting rights using the appropriate checkboxes for the user, the group to which he belongs, and for everyone.

In short, rights can be set separately for user- directly the owner of the file, for the group ( group), for all ( All).

You can get the digital designation of rights by adding, where:

1 - execution rights;
2 - write rights;
4 - read rights.

For example, we want to set read and write permissions: 6 = 4(read) + 2(write).

There are 8 possible options in total:

7 = read, write & execute (read, write, execute);
6 = read & write (read and write);
5 = read & execute (read and execute);
4 = read(read);
3 = write & execute (record and execution);
2 = write(record);
1 = execute(execute);
0 = no rights.

On our servers, files are executed as a user, so the last two digits in the permissions must be 0.
For example, if you need to set permissions to everything for a file, you need to set the value: 700.

5. Removal
You can delete files using the context menu, the button in the drop-down menu " File", using a hotkey combination - Ctrl + 8 or button "Del".
Before deleting files File manager will display a dialog box asking whether you really want to delete the selected files.

So, why did I personally like hosting from Beget? I have already talked about many positive qualities of this hoster. It wouldn’t hurt to mention a few more important technical features.

Site load monitoring

File manager

Beget is available in the control panel, very convenient file manager proprietary, often allowing you to do without using FTP clients. In 2015, Beget made this editor an open source project. source code and posted it on the Internet under the name SPRUT.io on the website of the same name.

The file manager has 2 panels that make it easy to copy or move files from one directory to another. In addition, there is, of course, the ability to upload and download files, create and unpack archives, install necessary rights to folders and files.

The file manager also has a built-in online text editor with syntax highlighting, similar to the beloved Notepad++ editor, a very convenient thing.

It's even capable of highlighting syntax errors, which is also useful.

MySQL Databases

From the control panel it is possible to enable access to the desired databases (DBs) from outside. This can be useful when the database size becomes too large and phpMyAdmin can no longer cope (for example, one of our sites has already reached 1.5GB in database size):

However, in the control panel it is possible to create backups separately for both website scripts and databases, saving them as archives on the site.

Terminal in control panel

Surprisingly, but true: for advanced web developers, Beget gives the opportunity to work in the console directly from the control panel, without authorization and installation of additional programs(for Linux and Mac – open a terminal). As reported in the manual, for convenience, the window with the terminal can be expanded to the entire screen, to part of the screen, or moved to a place convenient for work. When switching pages, you can continue working with the terminal without breaking the session.

additional services

In addition to the usual features for virtual hosting, Beget offers many additional services, which usually have to be either purchased separately or deployed independently, but on a VPS/VDS, which is much more difficult. For example, using a caching system Memcached can help to significantly increase the performance of a site and reduce its load on the hosting platform. Below in the screenshot you can see a list of additional features:
