Access to log files and file manager - Plesk control panel

When I try and view the log files and/or file manager within the domains section I get the following errors:

When accessing file manager:
Invalid base path.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
0: C:\Program Files\SWsoft\Plesk\admin\plib\class.Checker.php:571 psaerror(string "Invalid base path.")

When accessing log manager:

LogFilesList->init() failed: filemng failed: Unable to open key (SOFTWARE\Plesk\PSA Config\Config): (5) Access is denied.

Any ideas?
 
From the error message we can only tell that for some reason, system user psaadm does not have rights to access the registry.
 
Hi,
I ran the Plesk configurator application that comes with the latest plesk patch, but still having this problem. How do I allow psaadmin registry permission?

THanks
 
Solution

For everyone having this issue, here is the solution:

Open regedit

Go to HKLM\SOFTWARE\Plesk\PSA Config\

Right click on 'config' folder. Go to properties.

Give 'Users' group permissions to read this folder.

Hope this helps.
