Issue 403 Error at html files or images after upgrade to v. 17

nevakee

Basic Pleskian
Hi,

After the upgrade to v.17 html files, css files or images get a 403 error.
PHP files have no problems.

"PHP 5.4.45 by OS vendor" run as mod_php by Apache.

proxy_access_log:
xx.xx.xx.xx - - [14/Feb/2017:17:33:09 +0100] "GET /picture_library/burdie.gif HTTP/1.1" 403 1036 "-" "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:51.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/51.0"

proxy_error_log:
2017/02/14 17:33:09 [error] 16064#0: *10241 openat() "/var/www/vhosts/xxx/httpdocs/picture_library/burdie.gif" failed (13: Permission denied), client: xx.xx.xx.xx, server: xxx, request: "GET /picture_library/burdie.gif HTTP/1.1", upstream: "http://xx.xx.xx.xx:7080/picture_library/burdie.gif", host: "xxx"

If i delete the line "disable_symlinks if_not_owner;" in the nginx config (/var/www/vhosts/system/xxx/conf/nginx.conf) or disable "Restrict the ability to follow symbolic links" in the "Apache & nginx Settings", it works.

Why doesn't work this anymore ???
With version 12.5 it still works ...

Edit:
If the html file or image under 1024 bytes, i get no 403 error.
