Hi maartenv, I managed to run the upgrade to mariadb 10.6, successfully, by the look of it. However, I had 2 moments of "panic": 1. The upgrade would not run ("nothing to upgrade") which was due to the fact that I had to disable the mariadb in yum earlier on. After fixing that the upgrade run...

Hi syazov, I could upgrade Plesk by disabling the repo, as per you suggestion, thanks. Now, maartenv, which of the 2 articles I mentioned shall I follow, please? They seem radically different. Best, Franco

Hello, I am currently running Plesk 18.0.44 #3 and the automatic upgrade to 18.0.45 failed due to the wrong or obsolete MariaDB repository. I am on CentOS 7.9 and my MariaDB version is 10.1. I have seen a few discussions on the topic of upgrading MariaDB, but I remain confused on what to do...

Indeed, it was due to some users left on the system; after having cleaned them up I could remove the db server, and directly from Plesk. Resolved, thanks. Franco

I get: "Error: A database server cannot be deleted while there are databases or database users hosted on it. " but of course there aren't any. However, I have still a few users assigned to that db ID 3. Shall I delete them first with a query (Plesk would not let me)?

Hi Igor, not sure I completely understand. Here is what I have: MariaDB [psa]> select * from databaseservers; +----+-------------------+------+-------+----------------+-------------+------------------------------------------------------------+---------------+------------+---------+ | id | host...

Hello, I am in the situation described here: Resolved - Database server cannot be removed What do you do once you have found the ID? You simply delete that row? Is that all? Thanks Franco

Hello, I used to simply keep mail deactivated in the subscription mail settings and the outgoing mail messages (such as those originated by forms or wordfence) were regularly sent without any problem. Recently instead I have to activate mail service (which also creates a mailbox, I guess, which...

Sure, got that, thanks.

Well, after some research I found out that ibd files are indexed files created by mysql. That one is particularly large due to a large table of a WP plugin. All ok then. Btw, that could be a way of identifying particularly large tables without browsing to all the databases. And I am sure there...

Hello, I have detected a 545MB file named /var/lib/mysql/bdd_mamps/dcha_ydbs2dn__itsec_logs.ibd What is it, please, and how can I reduce it or eventually purge it? Running latest Plesk Obsidian on CentOS 7.8 Regards

Hi Inado1, the documentation says that parameter is used in the ondemand case. As my system works using ondemand and I observe no memory issue I assume the timeout is defined (10s?) and works. There is (was) a problem for the dynamic case instead, I guess. I won't try again ;) Regards

Hello, I am trying to upgrade from 18.026 to 18.0.27 and at first I had this issue Resolved - Update to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.27 keeps failing, but I could go around it as per suggestion and start the upgrade. However, I then get the following message: Plesk pre-upgrade checking... WARNING...

Not sure, but you may try and reduce maxchildren. Anyway, I would avoid wasting time and add memory asap. If that does not solve your problem then it will be worth investigating further.

Well, I think you took the right decision, but it takes some time and experience to get a VPS running smooth. I suggest you pay an expert a few hours and after that you'll find your way and be happy. It's not only tuning and performance, but also security, such as running fail2ban, rkhunter...
