• Debian 11 is approaching its end-of-life (vendor EOL date - August 31, 2026). Plesk Obsidian 18.0.80 will be 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.

Backup fails: "Failed to execute backup of mysql database"

Hi,

My OS is CentOS 5.8.
Plesk is 11.0.9.

Having problems with failed daily domain backups. All databases that have been created by Plesk cannot be backed up, thus backup fails with the following message:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

What could be the reason?
 
Thanks Igor.
That articele is talking about something that is not related to my problem. Or did I not understand correctly? I mean, for me the problem is "failed to execute backup of mysql database", and this artilce is about no space in /tmp folder and failing FTP upload. I checked it and my disc is only 7% full and upload works OK.
 
I am still getting "Failed to execute backup of mysql database". This happens only for one out of my 3 domains.

Seems like Plesk doesn't know the password, maybe the passwords are different for Plesk and MySQL? How can I change the password for MySQL? For which user?
 
Some more info from the migration.results file:
"Failed to pack files mydomain.com_daily_admin_wp_1_1503091102 in /var/lib/psa/dumps/domains/mydomain.com/databases/admin_wp_1"

Does that help?
