Cannot find the robot.txt anywhere in my file manager but the domain.com/robots.txt is working

In the wordpress website the robots.txt is automatically getting generated by the following script : function do_robots() {

header( 'Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8' );

do_action( 'do_robotstxt' );

if ( '0' == get_option( 'blog_public' ) ) {

echo "User-agent: *\n";

echo "Disallow: /\n";

} else {

echo "User-agent: *\n";

echo "Disallow:\n";

}

}

in the file /functions.php which is under the /wp-includes/ folder. So you can modify the code to change the robots.txt settings.

If you do not wish to show the robots.txt file you can redirect it to the 404 error page using the .htaccess

Redirect 301 /robots.txt http://www.yoursite.com/404

Your website needs to be publicly accessible to use Jetpack: site_inaccessible Error

Below error occurred while trying to connect to the WordPress.com under jetpack plugin in wp-admin panel:

Your website needs to be publicly accessible to use Jetpack: site_inaccessible Error Details: The Jetpack server was unable to communicate with your site [HTTP 503]. Ask your web host if they allow connections from WordPress.com. If you need further assistance, contact Jetpack Support: http://jetpack.me/support/

Try disabling the maintenance plugins if you have enabled and try to connect it.

The maintenance plugins like : WP Maintenance Mode and ThemeFuse Maintenance Mode

Or try disabling all the plugins that you have recently added and try if it is getting connected.

Or try deactivating the Jetpack plugin and reactivate it again and try connecting it , this worked for me .

Also check if your domain name server is updated , or updated to the right hosting account. Also check if the A record is pointing correctly.

If this is not resolved the issue you will have to contact either the http://jetpack.me/support/ or the hosting provider to check if the port is blocked or the website is blocked.

MySQL database not appearing in cPanel but exists in the server

If a database exists but is not displayed in cPanel it likely is not being tracked by the db mapping system.




Check to see if database is listed in user.yaml by running the following command:
#cat /var/cpanel/databases/user.yaml 




If the result is as follows : 

No databases tracked:

root@server [~]# cat /var/cpanel/databases/tacct.yaml

---

MYSQL:

dbs: {}

dbusers: {}

Follow the below steps : 




To map missing databases and users run the following:

#/usr/local/cpanel/bin/dbmaptool cpanelusername --type mysql --databasename

#/usr/local/cpanel/bin/dbmaptool cpanelusername --type mysql –databaseuser

#/usr/local/cpanel/bin/dbmaptool cpanelusername --type mysql –databasename cpanelusername_databaseuser

After the above steps are executed check with the following command if the database has been mapped in the db mapping system.

#cat /var/cpanel/databases/abc.yaml

The result should be as follows : 

---

MYSQL:

dbs:

tacct_testdb: IP Address

dbusers: {}

owner: tacct

server: IP Address
