  • The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.
  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

    Resolved MariaDB Update to 10.11.7 via Plesk 18.0.60 on Debian 10

    I thought oh good, updated panel.ini and opened ssh and repair as instructed, and started the upgrade. It went through OK, but now I have this situation: I manually start MariaDB, works fine. About a good two minutes later it gets shut down from outside - cause unknown. Here are the journal log...

    Resolved Webmail - PHP not working, file downloaded not executed

    Well now I have solved it: When the Apache package is reinstalled by the installer, some modules which are needed are not selected. I expect it was the fcgid module. My beef is: Howcome I install both packages and repair the mail setup, but nevertheless an Apache module required for webmail is...

    Resolved Webmail - PHP not working, file downloaded not executed

    It's a new server I'm installing, Debian 10, a Plesk image was already installed. When selecting packages in the installer I saw that one can remove the Apache package, and since I use only Nginx I did. But then webmail was also automatically removed, so I reinstalled both Apache packages. But...

    Issue Plesk Update 18.0.39 fails when Bind not installed

    I found that bind was installed on the two servers which could not update. In Plesk the option was deselected, but the packages were installed nevertheless. I deleted the packages and then the update worked. Perhaps Plesk could check if bind9 and bind9utils are installed and work round the...

    Issue Plesk Update 18.0.39 fails when Bind not installed

    Has happened already at 2 servers. In general I don't install Bind, don't need it. Plesk Updates have always worked fine. Now suddenly they don't, same at both servers. From the Updater log: Reading state information... bind9 is already the newest version (1:9.11.5.P4+dfsg-5.1+deb10u6). That's...

    Forwarded to devs php_handler --reread fails to find new modules

    @john0001 No I haven't modified anything like that at the Plesk installation, and you are right, cache control is as you noted. Looking at the network traffic for the page I found it may be "my bad" - uBlock Origin was blocking something, and also cookies were blocked. So I expect it was one of...

    Forwarded to devs php_handler --reread fails to find new modules

    OK, now I think I found the solution: It's a browser caching problem - if you reload the page (Strg-F5) then the expected checkboxes appear. @IgorG Could you please get devs to look at the caching instructions on the pages showing PHP modules?

    Question PHP-FPM error log rotation period

    Thanks @hschramm you are right ofcourse. I'm well familiar with logrotate, don't know why I didn't think of it in this context. And yes, there are the 'daily' lines for each Plesk PHP installed. But I don't like trying to simply edit those files, as they belong to their respective Plesk...

    Question PHP-FPM error log rotation period

    Plesk 18.0.36 changed the rotation of Plesk PHP-FPM error logs to daily - I assume from weekly? I want to go (back) to weekly: I have scripts run by cron which monitor the size of those files and the threshold for complaint is based on a weekly amount of errors. And it's not a high threshold -...

    Hi @IgorG , many thanks as ever for taking a look at this. Even though it's not what I was hoping to hear - I wanted a fix, not to hear that it works for you ;) Still the question remains: Did you also look in Plesk GUI, if APCu was being listed in the PHP 7.4 settings (Modules)? One thing...

    Forwarded to devs php_handler --reread fails to find new modules

    Hi John, thanks for your question: No, the new modules are not loaded. That much I'm certain about. To elaborate on my last comment: On a second server I saved unchanged settings and the new modules still did not appear. Then I called "php_handler --reread" again, and again saved changed...

    Hey thanks @IgorG , that is truly good news! Is there any way to see these issues like "PPPM-12817" (and their progress / patch-release) on the public internet? Or do I need to keep inspecting all the release notes? Also, do you have any knowledge or "gut feeling" about the priority of said...

    Turn off Apache, use only Nginx

    Nginx can be preferred for high traffic websites where the gain in speed and smaller footprint on resources outweighs the "pain" of getting its static configuration right yourself, rather than having the .htaccess files (e.g. deposited by WordPress and plugins) to do it for you. Yes, really big...

    Forwarded to devs Nginx-only php location does not work for WordPress permalinks

    Sorry, I forget two other comments yesterday: 1) When proxy mode is off, i.e. Apache is "turned off completely", even then, the full Apache config for the domain is generated. But Apache can never be reached in this case, so the configuration, which will cause Apache processes, is just a...

    Question How to Delete PHP FPM Error Logs?

    Are there really THAT many accesses to a "small WordPress blog"? Anyway, I'm pretty sure that there is a standard rotation job, once a week? But if you are running a "small" blog, then it's possible that a major proportion of the space usage is due to the error log(s) - I recommend to check that...
