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)...

The dreaded PCI/Security scan from a client! So often the findings or remediation requests seem confusing, like this one: "HTTP service has been identified without SSL/TLS" Web traffic to domains on my server will always redirect to https/443. But I guess I can't stop a scanner from testing...

A PCI scan is revealing a few issues I need to mitigate on a server. The IP of my server serves an SSL certificate for a hostname I recognize as a prior domain I used, but I need to: a) secure Plesk with a valid SSL cert when browsing to an IP b) remove the old cert When I browse to my Plesk...

Excellent! That worked. And in my case, supplemented by these Postmark specifics (using 587 instead of port 25 in the example) https://postmarkapp.com/support/article/832-can-i-configure-postfix-to-send-through-postmark Thank you!

If you're referring to Plesk's MSMTP, that's fine. But it forcibly disabled Webmail from what I can tell.

There are numerous threads on this topic. I haven't found a way to force Plesk to use port 587. In the mail server settings, when I enable port 587, upon sending tests with Roundcube, the maillog indicates port 25 is still being used. Mar 21 18:25:41 my-server postfix/smtp[99165]: connect to...

It's actually root:root drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Dec 22 17:30 .ssh ...which seems to be common across all my Plesk domains.

Though it's minor, the daily warnings / log errors about Plesk not being able to backup .ssh files is a nuisance. Since the .ssh dir is /var/www/vhosts/example.com/.ssh (that is, above httpdocs/), what syntax, if any, works for configuring Plesk to skip that dir? Constant error is: Unable to...

Are the October 2023 curl vulnerabilities something that would have any root within Plesk, or would those best be handled by an OS (Ubuntu in my case) update? https://github.com/curl/curl/discussions/12026

I've noticed some, not all, of my Plesk servers throw an error in the Backup log, such as what I show below. I think it's harmless: essential files are backed up as expected. But the .ssh warning is troublesome because there will be days and days of them shown in the Plesk interface. Any ideas...

Thanks! What should one even do in this situation (if a tech scan demands these mail services are removed?) I think I read that Plesk can be configured to use an external SMTP server? And nerdier still, I suppose Transactional Services with an email/SMTP API could be used. But I think it makes...

What about if I turned off POP/IMAP and left SMTP intact?

My Ubuntu server runs MariadB 10.6. Based on this old thread about encrypting data at rest (2018), it would seem a Plesk domain could have MariaDB at rest encryption enabled... and everything is fine. Is this correct? I don't even know how to enable encryption for a MariaDB database: I've even...

Most of my client domains either a) send PHP email from a contact form, or b) use a Transactional Service like Postmark to deliver email. My server has no active email accounts. Am I ok to turn off/remove SMTP completely? Would it have any repercussions I'm not thinking of? I assume the...
