DL server is experiencing high traffic ATM therefore it's hard to start the download or even open the page...

Note: if you have older version of Plesk (6.x or 7.0.x, then first apply Plesk 7.5.6+ update, and then afterwards normal Plesk 7.5.6 update

FINALLY!!!! Thumbs up!
 
We have been waiting for this release and we want to make sure we have all the updates and patch prior installing it.

We upgraded from 7.5.5 to 7.5.6 without any problem.

our system indicate that we have the last patch.
psa v7.5.6_build20051107.20 os_Windows 5.2.3790.0

we also, couple days ago installed the uppates succesfully.

Plesk 7.5.6 for Windows Update 060502.17

But the plesk control panel still shows

psa v7.5.6_build20051107.20 os_Windows 5.2.3790.0

Should it not be build 060502.17 instead ?

Can anyone confirm that applying updates should also change the build number?

Any comments...

My server runs MailEnable Prof V1, but I really would love to upgrade to ME 2.0 Prof, there seems to be some issues so i havent done the upgrade yet, was kinda hoping plesk to officially support Mailenable 2.0 Pro, but i don't see that listed as a feature of 7.6, any ideas?

Sincerely
