Thank you for the detailed reply, but I believe we are discussing two different things.
My original points were:
Abuse of market power is legally actionable in the EU.
Large providers can and sometimes do challenge harmful vendor behavior.
Filing complaints—especially collective...
@W4ru
If this is a shared hosting system, it is likely that the issue is caused by SystemMaxFiles.
systemd-journald creates separate journal files per user, and if you have many of them, RuntimeMaxFiles=100 becomes the bottleneck.
Journald deletes old files as soon as the total number of...
@trialotto
I respectfully disagree with your assessment for several reasons.
a) Abuse of market power is a legal matter under EU law
It is not correct to say there is “no root problem in a legal sense.” The EU has repeatedly acted against dominant vendors for practices such as excessive...
@manni As you did mention Austria, you can contact your national authority:
Federal Competition Authority (BWB) – Austria

The BWB cooperates closely with the EU. If the case affects multiple countries (as with...
And this is unfortunately only the beginning. Plesk is deliberately letting its partners walk straight into the trap.
Sadly, the large providers like IONOS don’t have the guts to go after the root of the problem.
Once again, it’s the small and mid-sized businesses that have to bear the...
@superfun2k23 We will never know, as you no longer have a backup of the Debian 12 + Plesk server from before the upgrade. If the issue comes from this not-yet-supported upgrade path, you can only reach out to the Plesk support team to see if they can fix your installation. However, I am not sure...
I am still not sure if this approach is possible. As far as I know, only the following upgrade path is currently fully supported:
Install Plesk on a fresh Debian 13 instance
Install the Plesk Migrator extension on both the old Debian 12 instance and the new Debian 13 instance
Migrate all...
@superfun2k23 Actually, Debian 13 is only supported for new installations of Plesk. Manually upgrading Debian 12 to Debian 13 on a server with an active Plesk instance is not supported yet. – How to perform dist-upgrade procedure on Linux server with Plesk?
@danami
On our servers, the detailed message log accessed via journald is quite slow. After investigating the issue, we noticed that Warden always scans the entire journald log with commands like the following:
/usr/bin/journalctl --no-pager --quiet --unit=pc-remote...
@Bobbbb Thanks for the suggestion — switching to IPv4 did the trick.

I’m not surprised that the first lawsuits are already emerging. Depending on the country and legal framework, this development was to be expected.
All major hosting forums are currently full of discussions, as large providers are now being forced to raise their prices sharply. Even players like...
The controller (hosting client) must submit any GDPR Article 33/34 notices after our prompt notification. We often see little interest in doing so, despite our offer to support. For example, one client uses a Plesk server to back up email within its hosting subscription; those emails were...
I think this topic is so emotionally charged because it’s the small and mid-sized companies who chose Plesk as a hosting partner that are now being forced to swallow all these greedy price hikes from the usual “locust” private-equity types.
All the hosts where I rent servers or manage packages...
@forgie Basically you can just activate or disable the feature in the service plan settings under tab "Permissions" => "Show more available permissions":
