  • 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.

[BUG?] Error in httpd.conf/ssl.conf

StayAllive

Basic Pleskian
Hey All,

After updating to Plesk 11.5 (and every little MU update after that) reconfiguring the vhosts fails with the following error:

Code:
Template_Exception: httpd: Syntax error on line 222 of /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf: Syntax error on line 12 of /etc/httpd/conf.d/ssl.conf: LoadModule takes two arguments, a module name and the name of a shared object file to load it from

file: /usr/local/psa/admin/plib/Template/Writer/Webserver/Abstract.php
line: 68
code: 0

This can be fixed by editing "/etc/httpd/conf.d/ssl.conf" and commenting out line 12 and running "/usr/local/psa/admin/sbin/httpdmng --reconfigure-all".
However on each update the file is recreated or something so the error returns... Luckily auto-updating seems te be not working atm so I can catch it with a 2 minute downtime but I would love to have a permenant fix for this! Any ideas?

I am running Plesk 11.5.30 Update #10 on CentOS 6.4 (Final).
 
Just fix your ssl.conf. Plesk doesn't modify this file - it is from your OS vendor packages. If mod_ssl is in a separate (from httpd) package on your OS, then the simplest solution is to reinstall this package thus obtaining default configuration file version.

Also, what do you mean by "Luckily auto-updating seems te be not working atm"?
 
I modified ssl.conf, but after the update a few hours back (http://kb.parallels.com/116636) wich I manually applied through the installer somehow uncommented the line again... (I checked if it was commented before starting the update) and I did not run anything that could update it in the meantime on the server (only Plesk processes were running).

After updating to 11.5 the last 3 MU updates did not apply automaticly like I am used to (updating around midnight). I have my update settings set to automatic install updates to the current Plesk version, keep 3rd party software up-to-date and notify my off common releases.
 
You should not comment anything. You need this module working! Just fix the configuration. Something like (this is only an example!):

LoadModule ssl_module modules/mod_ssl.so
 
LoadModule ssl_module modules/mod_ssl.so

That is the exact line I commented out... so the config should be fine... it worked before the Plesk 11.5 update.

Is there anything I can check or do to troubleshoot or provide more information?

P.S. Auto Update seems te be working again.
 
It just happened again after a auto-update resulting in 10 min downtime because we could respond fast (it's 3:30am right now).

Is there anything I can do to provide more info to resolve this problem?
