Just attempted a migration from a Plesk 11.0.9 (centos 5 i386/pae) to Plesk 11.0.9 (centos 6 x86_64) and it failed horribly; passwords for ftp accounts weren't set, mail accounts weren't set, database users weren't created so therefore the database data wasn't copied, none of the websites'...

Since this thread was originally about how great the UI is, here's a new one for the list: If a reseller creates a backup task at the reseller level, there is no way for the 'admin' account to see it, modify it, delete it. And you wonder why hosts don't like Plesk 10+... makes it real...

There is a backup present in the database table to run daily. It is listed as an obj_type of 'reseller'. As far as I can tell, I have no way to see, modify or delete these tasks via the Plesk interface when logged in as 'admin'; is that correct?

Funny thing about that is the keys used for the encryption are stored somewhere in Plesk, because there's a CLI command that will output the admin password in plain text if you need it. /usr/local/psa/bin/admin --show-password I agree with everything you said about the hosting aspects; I...

Just upgraded a server from 10.4.4 to 11.0.9 and from that day forward, even though there is no scheduled backup task, Plesk has been taking daily backups of the websites and dumping them to: /var/lib/psa/dumps/resellers/USERNAME/domains/DOMAIN/ where there will be files of the format...

I sure as hell don't use 11.5, and if you'd look at your support queue you'd know why.

Got it, so you're saying Plesk is likely full of vulnerabilities and they just weren't found before because it was less popular.

Yes, the fact that I've been using Plesk for nearly ten years, have been doing hosting for even longer, and know that it gets worse and more difficult to support with each release. Oh yeah, tell me how often Plesk 8 had remote compromises? Those have increased steadily with the newer versions...

Clearly web host magazine's editors have never actually worked at a web host or used Plesk. The best part of the article is them describing how 'easy' it is to upgrade to 11.5. They have obviously never upgraded Plesk or they'd have killed themselves before finishing the article. Oh, by the...

Perfectly accurate! We've been using it since 7 and our customers are more pissed off than ever about the interface. But hey, Web Host Magazine says version 11.5 is the best thing since sliced bread. Remind me to never rely on anything they've reviewed, ever.

Exactly. Every try to create a subscription as a reseller? Oh wait, you can't. You have to create it as admin then change its ownership then re-ip it because the ip address can't move from you to the reseller if it's exclusive.

I'm not sure what its purpose was to begin with but there's no impact from removing it.

Unfortunately it's for customer use so we're stuck not offering it now. If you're new to Plesk 11, coming from 8, be prepared for all kinds of other less than ideal situations you'll soon discover. :-)

So the backup tool, when backing up to a remote FTP, apparently first creates the file in /tmp which works great until you need to back up a site that is larger than the size of /tmp. It does at least have the option to check for available free space, which I've been waiting on migration...

I found the solution in this post where a previous micro update broke a site in the same way: http://forum.parallels.com/showthread.php?259546-Plesk-10-4-4-httpd-include-problem-after-MU30&p=624507&viewfull=1#post624507 The fix (modified to not restart apache): I have doubts as to...

Is some form of testing process really that difficult? The new 10.3.1 release of the microupdate for suexec installs suexec with permissions 644 which of course breaks every site on the server using cgi scripts. It also changes the group membership from apache to root. For those whose sites...

spf.trusted-forwarder.org has disappeared from DNS, and by default, Plesk 8 and 9 had an include:spf.trustedforwarder.org in the SPF rules. So, if you had enabled SPF checking on your Plesk 8 or 9 server, your incoming mail is likely being affected right now. Just delete that from the spf...

Found a very similar issue from Plesk 9.2 http://kb.parallels.com/en/6380 I tried the solution there, in this case adding "CGI_PHP_BIN /var/www/cgi-bin/cgi_wrapper/cgi_wrapper" to the file, didn't do anything.

Looks like the missing value is supposed to be populated by /usr/local/psa/admin/conf/templates/default/service/php_over_fastcgi.php: <IfModule mod_fcgid.c> <Files ~ (\.php)> SetHandler fcgid-script FCGIWrapper <?php echo $VAR->server->webserver->apache->phpCgiBin ?>...

The new cgi wrapper patch microupdate seems to have broken some sites from reconfiguring if they're using fastcgi. If you run: /usr/local/psa/admin/bin/httpdmng --reconfigure-domain DOMAIN This big mess spits out: PleskUtilException: '/usr/local/psa/admin/bin/apache-config' '-t' failed with...
