It seems nearly every Plesk server, and nearly every backup, displays this warning each time the backup is run. Warning: Extension "Git" Unable to back up extension. Error: Failed to exec backup_restore_helper: Exit code: 1: Failed to copy files storage to destination path. stderr: filemng...

I don't have specifics, but I do seem to have domains fail, causing an alert, because their SSLs are expired. All are on Plesk servers. My issue is identical to this 2024 thread...

Thanks! Actually, none of that worked. But I switch the domain from PHP 8.2 to 8.3... and now it works.

Thanks - that typo is only in the forum post. It's correct in the Plesk settings.

Both a php file run through the CMS, and a standalone PHP (not run through CMS but run through web space/Plesk) report MIME type: application/octet-stream for a glb file in the filesystem.

If I leave the CMS out of the picture - and just use PHP, I still don't get proper MIME treatment of .glb files. However, the command like 'file' command works as expected. Example: -bash-4.2$ file Duck.glb Duck.glb: model/gltf-binary Apache/Nginx see the.glb files as...

Is it Apache? The same Apache a Plesk server's websites/subscription would use? One reason I ask, is the Plesk File Manager for a domain allows a .glb (model) file upload - but for the life of me, I can't get my CMS to allow an upload of the same file. If both Plesk, and my website, were...

Hi! The versatile 'site' command is delivering blank data for 'Total size of backup files in local storage:,' even though many domains have gigabytes worth of backups in /var/lib/psa Issuing "/usr/local/psa/bin/site -i example.com" for example. Contrast this with: du -sh...

Hi! I've read numerous articles/docs on using "pleskrestore" command. Most refer to a simple, single file, such as mydomain.zip. I have a full /var/lib/psa/dumps/domains directory for a series of domains rescued from a prior server. I wasn't sure how to match the pleskrestore command given a...

There are numerous threads that cover this issue, many I've read, but I can't seem to master this workflow. A domain exists, example.com, with user: example A directory exists, /var/www/vhosts/example.com/upload I'd like an sftp user (not ftp) jailed to /var/www/vhosts/example.com/upload FTP...

That's a good idea. Do you have any provider suggestions? I'm sure AWS/RD would work but Amazon solutions seem to be so heavy-handed for this.

We are inheriting a site hosted on a customer's server. Current developer writes: "You will need a container / environment that has mysql setup with this higher rowsize. Changing the innodb_page_size in an existing environment with other DBs with the default rowsize will corrupt (can't think of...

It's moot, now. I just gave up and installed a Plesk-supplied EC2 image. But no, I didn't install anything special.

I installed an Amazon EC2 image of Plesk/Ubuntu. I was setting up my normal firewalls, and realized 8443 isn't behaving like a default port for the Plesk admin. Wasn't sure if this was the new default, or of the EC2 image had special treatment. Just curious!

The EC2 is using Ubuntu 20.04 LTS. Everything seems fine in the CLI installer until the very end, when errors about psaadm and crontab emerge: ===> Cumulative Plesk upgrade (final stage) has been started. ===> Preparing Plesk upgrade (final stage). ===> Cumulative upgrade of Plesk (final stage)...
