• Debian 11 has reached its end-of-life (vendor EOL date - August 31, 2026). Plesk Obsidian 18.0.81 is the last release to support it.
    If you are running Plesk Obsidian on Debian 11, we recommend you upgrade those servers to Debian 12 using our dist-upgrade tool.
  • We plan to deprecate and remove the support for XML RPC protocol versions earlier than 1.6.9.1 in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.82. We strongly recommend that you update all existing integrations using earlier versions of the XML RPC protocol to comply with the version 1.6.9.1 specification.

Autoinstaller kills xinetd

LarsenD

Regular Pleskian
This happens in around 30% of the cases when I run CLI autoinstaller to update/install/remove packages.

Code:
Patches were installed successfully.
The changes were applied successfully.
Synchronizing the Debian APT package index files...

# pgrep -lf xinetd || service xinetd start
Starting internet superserver: xinetd.

# pgrep -lf xinetd || service xinetd start
849 /usr/sbin/xinetd -pidfile /var/run/xinetd.pid -stayalive

As you can see, after the autoinstaller finishes, xinetd is not running and has to be started again.
 
To see a more detailed log, you could use over the command line:

export PLESK_INSTALLER_DEBUG=yes
/usr/local/psa/admin/bin/autoinstaller ....
This will force a more detailled output on the screen, as well in the corresponding autoinstaller - log - file for this instance. You can now investigate what caused the issue, that xinetd couldn't be restarted during or after the completed autoinstaller process.
