• Halloween is coming! To celebrate the occasion, we dusted off a couple of old skins, and even created a brand new one (Pixel).
    To get into the festive spirit, install the Skins extension.
  • The new Python extension is now available. It allows customers to deploy and manage WSGI-based Python applications on their websites directly from Plesk.
  • The Plesk Mobile apps for iOS and Android and the Plesk Mobile Center extension have been deprecated, and are no longer available for new installations. In Plesk Obsidian 18.0.84, the Plesk Mobile Center extension will be removed from servers during the upgrade, and the Plesk Mobile apps will lose their server management features.
  • The Social Login extension has been deprecated and will be removed in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.84. After that, it will no longer be possible to log in to Plesk with a Google, Facebook, GitHub account, or with a passkey. Plesk usernames and passwords, as well as logging in with a WebPros Account, are not affected.

Apache won't restart from within Plesk

S

spaceout

Basic Pleskian
When I try to restart Apache from within Plesk or if I type "service httpd restart" at the command line it fails...however if I use "apachectl restart" it works fine.

What's the best way of finding out why this is happening?
 
check your httpd logs (/var/logs/httpd)

You should find your error pretty easily (I think apache is one of the coolest service to debug when experiencing errors)
