Am I right in saying that I can have PHP5 installed and integrated into Plesk on a newly installed server.

Can you tell me please what you meant by...

Can anybody help me with this please? From IgorG's post above, I'm led to believe that PHP5 is built into Plesk. It's not in my newly installed v18.0.40. I'll have to pay a professional to install it but first can anyone help a novice to get it into plesk please?

PHP 5 is not available in my newly installed Obsidian 18.0.40. How do I get it, please?

Yes, I got everything back. I notice I use the words "emails are not back intact ". I should have said "emails are back intact " Have you tried Horde to read your email?

Thank you dash and UFHH01 for your help and encouragement. I copied the Maildir of the domain in question from backup to the live folder (having first checked that I wasn't overwriting anything) and then ran mchk and can report that all folders and all emails are not back intact and all is well...

In b. do you mean copy the files from the backup to the correct location on the new server? I'm nervous about c. after reading this.... http://kb.odin.com/en/116565

My server with Plesk 11 died a few days ago. I now have a new server with Plesk 12. I have the entire /var folder copied up from the old server. How do I restore emails to the new server? Can I simply copy /var/qmail/mailnames/domain.name from the backed up /var folder into the corresponding...

Are there any pitfalls, complications or anything else I should look out for in changing the hostname on my Plesk 11 managed server?

After logging in to Plesk 11 it takes 60 seconds to show the home page (blank page until then). Then after clicking "Tools & Settings" it takes a further 50 seconds to finish loading the page. It takes that time for the icons to show. Subsequent loading of "Tools & Settings" is instant. Is...
