    Question Backup Strategy

    I am seeking a low-cost backup Strategy. I use Microsoft OneDrive for the Plesk Backup of a VPS XXL install. It has limitation, though. If anything happens to the VPS and I need to set up another server, that backup cannot be accessed via Plesk Backup by any way I know about. I can move the...

    Issue Database Malware or False Positive?

    Riddle me this: After switching to a new Plesk server, and installing the paid version of Plesk Email Security, I began seeing one of my WordPress databases, which is sent via email as a backup via a WP add-on, being flagged as having a virus and it was quarantined. The warnings: INFECTED...

    Issue Move External Backup

    I have an issue with a Plesk server. Cannot access any of it, but I do have a cloud-backed in Microsoft One Drive. Is there any way that I can access that backup from another server? That would solve a whole lot of issues. Peace, Gene

    Issue SSH wont start, error on starting

    I have a VPS with the latest Plesk and AlmaLinux 9.3. All of a sudden SSH doesn't work. It restarts with an error and a telnet to the server shows it can't reach port 22 (even though it's activated). I used the host's console to login and ran a few things (see screen shot). I assume removing...

    Question Version 18.0.52 and MariaDB 10.11

    So this version evidently supports what is regarded as the current stable version of MariaDB, 10.11. Are there any downsides in updating WordPress and XenForo forums to the new database release? What's the best way to install it on a system using AlmaLinux 8.7? I used your instructions to get...

    Question MariaDB 10.6 — MySQL Tuner Questions!

    I have a relatively freshly-minted server running AlmaLinux 8.7, with 64GB RAM and a pair of terabyte SSDs. After updating to MariaDB 10.6.x, I configured the my.cnf file to represent a prior server with a similar setup: # # This group is read both both by the client and the server # use it...

    Resolved Plesk Migration Issue....

    So I migrated a domain from a cPanel server (version 98.0.9) to the latest Plesk Obsidian (18.0.39) on a Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS server. Site running WordPress 5.8.1. So when logged in to the admin panel, I should be seeing the toolbar at the top. Instead I see the toolbar stuck at the bottom...

    Question iTunes Podcast Feeds and HTTP HEAD requests

    I'm running a Plesk Linux server with latest Obsidian release. I've had to do a workaround for the RSS feed for our podcasts due to Apple's requirements that it support HTTP Head Requests. I've turned off all 301 HTTPS redirects that I can see while still supporting SSL on my sites, but I'm...

    Input About that MariaDB 10.4.x Problem....

    A few weeks back, I posted a message about installing MariaDB — listed at the MariaDB site as a stable version — and being unable to create/modify databases and users on my Plesk Obsidian server. In response, rather than try to help, I was taken to task by a couple of forum regulars for...

    Resolved Take Two! Error: SQLSTATE[HY000]: General error: 1449 The user specified as a definer ('root'@'localhost') does not exist

    This is the second time I am posting on a thread about this. First time brought out the trolls, so here's the deal, all over again: Following instructions to look for the latest supported version from MariaDB, I ended up with a 10.4.x version. However, it munges the username, evidently. So...

    Issue Running unset PERL5LIB Across Sessions

    In order to copy domains from my Plesk server to a backup server, running the latest cPanel, I have to engage the unset PERL5LIB command across multiple sessions. Right now it seems to only work with one connection. My Plesk server runs 12.5.30, latest updates. How do I do this? Peace, Gene

    Webmail Not Working....

    I have recently turned on email for one domain on my Plesk 12.5.30 (update 32) server. Other domains with email active on the server are fully functional. But on one domain, the email service works fine from any IMAP client, such as Apple Mail for OS X and iOS. But accessing the webmail...

    Better Spam Protection!

    So I've set SpamAssassin down to 2.5 from the standard 5. I make sure all missed junk mail goes to the Spam folder, and I judiciously add exceptions to whitelists and blacklists on my Plesk 12.5.30 server. I've also installed the paid version of MagicSpam. It's a little better than the freebie...

    Plesk 12.5.30 to 12.5.31

    Do you need something special to upgrade to a slightly new version? I have the former, and it doesn't show any updates for the latter when I check under Updates and Upgrades? Or is it not yet in the "general release" class? I'm quite new to Plesk and I acquired the server in early December of...

    Email Rules/Filters

    So I haven't been able to find this when searching forums, but does Plesk support server-side email rules or filtering? How does it get implemented? Or do you set it in the webmail client? If that's the case, does that, therefore, make it apply to all email apps, since the incoming messages...

    Plesk, Let's Encrypt SSL, CloudFlare

    I have the free CloudFlare configured on all my domains. In accordance with the instructions I received in your Lucy From Plesk email, I installed the Let's Encrypt free SSL and added this to many of my domains and subdomains. Installation more or less worked on all. But now when I try to...

    SSL for main domain and subdomain...

    So I want an SSL for www.theparacast.com and forum.theparacast.com. I'm told I need two SSLs. Does it matter that both point to the same IP number? Peace, Gene

    nginx 502 Error on Sending Forum Emails Via Sendmail

    I have an 8-core dedicated server with 16GB RAM, Plesk 12.5.30 update 25 with PHP 7.0.4, PHP-FPM over Apache. When sending batch text emails via our XenForo forum script (version 1.5.6), which uses sendmail, it times out about a third to two-thirds through the process with an nginx gateway 502...

    Plesk 12.5.30-MU23 — nginx down

    MariaDB Update....

    My Plesk 12.5.30 server is presently offering MariaDB version 5.4.44. But I see there's a version 10.1.10-MariaDB in the current cPanel. So do I await for an update in Plesk, or add it myself — or what? If I add it myself, does that create a complication or is better for you to do it? Peace...
