Issue Backspace key doesn't work when logged in chroot account

J.Wick

Regular Pleskian
Server operating system version
Rocky Linux 8.7 (Green Obsidian)
Plesk version and microupdate number
Plesk Obsidian Version 18.0.51 Update #1
Regular /bin/bash users work fine, it's when going to the /bin/bash(chrooted) user the backspace key doesn't work, it keeps adding another space like the space bar.

I've looked online for a solution, nothing is working. Any suggestions?

Had exactly the same behavior with backspace adding an extra space instead of deleting the last character in Ubuntu 20.04 + Bash 5.0

Resolved with:
  1. copy /lib/terminfo to /var/www/vhosts/chroot/lib/terminfo
  2. copy /usr/share/terminfo/ to /var/www/vhosts/chroot/usr/share/terminfo/
  3. copy /etc/inputrc to /var/www/vhosts/chroot/etc/inputrc
  4. apply changes with update-chroot.sh --apply all
  5. log in into chrooted env again
