  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.
  • The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.

After upgrade to 8.6.0 PLESK will not start

I started an upgrade to 8.6.0 this morning and now PLESK will not start.

I have the following logs. Can anyone provide a solution?

STOP psa-8.6.0-fc7.build86080722.00 upgrading AT Mon Oct 13 09:50:38 GMT 2008
 
Hi,

As you can see from the error message installation/upgrade failed because it could not connect to mysql.
You will need to rerun upgrade but before that you should make sure that mysql is running and apply one of the following solutions:
http://kb.odin.com/en/228 -- in case it was first time installation
http://kb.odin.com/en/1657 -- in case it was upgrade

After you perform this make sure that you can connect to mysql as user root with empty password (if you used 1-st KB article) or as admin with password stored in /etc/psa/.psa.shadow (if you used 2-nd KB article).

Next you need to rerun upgrade. To do this you should download Plesk distributive archive, unpack it and install all package from dist... directory with 'rpm -Uvh --force LIST_OF_PACKAGES' command.
 
Thanks for the reply.

MySQL is up and all my websites that require MySQL are up and running.

I can connect to MySQL with the mysql -uadmin -p`cat /etc/psa/.psa.shadow` psa as instructed in http://kb.odin.com/en/1657

I am totally lost with were to find the Plesk Distributive Archive. Also what is the the dist.... directory?
 
ok....

I went to /etc/init.d and entered ./psa start to start plesk.

This is what I get

Code: 
./psa start
Starting xinetd service...                                           done
Starting named service...                                            done
Starting mysqld service...                                           done
Starting qmail service...                                            done
Starting courier-imap service...                                     done
Starting postgresql service...                                       failed
Starting psa-spamassassin service...                                 done
Starting Plesk...                                                    done
Starting drwebd service...                                           failed

Look like I have a problem wit the drwebd service but it does not say what it is.
 
I ran ./drwebd start and here is what I get....

Code: 
Key file: /opt/drweb/drweb32.key - Key file not found!
A path to a valid license key file does not specified.
Plesk authorization failed: HTTP request error [7]
Error: Plesk Software not running.

What gives??? I has a key file before I attempted to upgrade! Don't know how to get the key file back since Plesk came with my leased server.

Can I deactivate drweb by editing a file? If so which one? I looked in the psa.conf and do not see where it starts this service up.
 
Hello,

Can you clarify: it Plesk control panel running at all? Can you login and use it at https://IP_OF_SERVER:8443
If yes, then check recommendations from the following article to troubleshoot drweb error:
http://kb.odin.com/en/1658

If Plesk control panel itself in still unusable then you should rerun upgrade:
1. Download Plesk distributive:
http://download1.parallels.com/Ples...sa-8.6.0-fc7.build86080925.19.i586.rpm.tar.gz

2. Extract this archive and reinstall all packages from dist-rpm-FedoraCore-7-i386/base/ using rpm -Uvh --force

Also before running upgrade check that you do not have any custom options in my.cnf or mysql startup script because in upgrade log I can also see the following error:
==============
Trying to establish test connection... Could not open required defaults file: /
root/.my.cnf
Fatal error in defaults handling. Program aborted
==============

If file /root/my.cnf exists, make sure mysql user has enough permissions to read this file.
