• Hi, Pleskians! We are running a UX testing of our upcoming product intended for server management and monitoring.
    We would like to invite you to have a call with us and have some fun checking our prototype. The agenda is pretty simple - we bring new design and some scenarios that you need to walk through and succeed. We will be watching and taking insights for further development of the design.
    If you would like to participate, please use this link to book a meeting. We will sent the link to the clickable prototype at the meeting.
  • (Plesk for Windows):
    MySQL Connector/ODBC 3.51, 5.1, and 5.3 are no longer shipped with Plesk because they have reached end of life. MariaDB Connector/ODBC 64-bit 3.2.4 is now used instead.
  • The Horde webmail has been deprecated. Its complete removal is scheduled for April 2025. For details and recommended actions, see the Feature and Deprecation Plan.

    Issue drwebd now fails to start on Debian 12

    Hello @Sebahat.hadzhi , thanks for your reply. I've again checked my configuration, tried removing the /etc/sw-cp-server/conf.d/plesk-drweb-local.conf from an earlier fix suggestion, deactivated bind9 (which for strange reasons was needed during the initial config of Plesk, but now seems not to...

    Issue drwebd now fails to start on Debian 12

    Hi all, I still can't get it running )-: Thanks to @Sebahat.hadzhi for adding debian to the article on installing drweb from Plesk repo. I've double-checked everything. The only difference I found to servers where it does work (Debian 11) is that in /etc/sw-cp-server/conf.d/ssl.conf there are...

    Issue drwebd now fails to start on Debian 12

    Hi @Sebahat.hadzhi thanks for your reply. It would be helpful if your article also contained the way to check which repository was used for apt (not just yum); this looks like this: # apt-cache search drweb # apt-cache policy drweb-daemon > It's installed from Index of /DRWEB_6.0.2.9...

    Issue drwebd now fails to start on Debian 12

    During routine auto-maintenance last night, drwebd could not be restarted, on three servers: Debian 10, 11 and 12. I'm aware of these threads, having had this sort of trouble before...

    Fail2Ban Jail needed for /var/log/sw-cp-server/error_log

    Hey @Kaspar , thanks so much! I have implemented the jail and one IP is now banned by the new jail. Thanks also for your explanation - yes, it's debatable how necessary the jail is, but I just have the gut feeling that whoever is attacking MY Plesk should get stomped on - hard. Which is why I...

    Issue Messages from a Plesk component appearing on root ssh console

    @JVG Many many thanks for this tip! I'm seldom logged on to a console (my automated scripts tell me if anything needs doing, and an external Zabbix monitoring). So I chose the hammer method: 1. Comment out the line in syslog-ng.conf: log { source(s_src); filter(f_crit); destination(d_console)...

    Issue Messages from a Plesk component appearing on root ssh console

    1 - LogFileName = syslog 2 - SyslogFacility = Daemon OK, there are two sections in /etc/drweb, [Daemon] and [Updater], and both have exactly those entries. On a server with Debian 11 there is also "OutputMode = Terminal", but I never saw any console output, so I agree that it seems that the...

    Issue Messages from a Plesk component appearing on root ssh console

    I think I've found the root problem: https://serverfault.com/questions/1148725/where-is-some-os-logs-in-debian-12 "In Debian 12, the traditional syslog system has been replaced with systemd-journald. This means that the old log files like syslog, messages, auth.log are no longer used. Instead...

    Issue Messages from a Plesk component appearing on root ssh console

    I just checked the same file at a Debian 11 server with Plesk (just updated to) 18.0.66, the logging section in drweb_handler.conf is identical, the file is unchanged since Apr 18 2023 (but no problem there).

    Issue Messages from a Plesk component appearing on root ssh console

    Hi trialotto, nice to hear from you again after yome years! See above - I did just try what you suggested, but to no avail. I've now looked at drweb_handler.conf which contains this section: I suspect Level = Quiet might solve things; but I don't understand what "SyslogFacility = Mail" actually...

    Issue Messages from a Plesk component appearing on root ssh console

    After writing I found the thread DRWeb logging to root console and I edited /etc/drweb/drweb32.ini to OutputMode = Quiet and erstarted DrWeb. This has not solved the problem )-:

    Issue Messages from a Plesk component appearing on root ssh console

    I've just installed a high-end VPS rented from Strato (Germany), using their "Debian 12 + Plesk" image. It's the latest Plesk 18.0.66. The image had two problems of note: BIND was not selected as a Plesk component, and I didn't add it manually - never needed it before. Turns out, without BIND...
