• 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.

[Bug] httpd.include unconditionally doing php_admin_flag; Workarounds please?

Using Plesk 7.5 on Debian Sarge with Apache 2.0; trying to get PHP to run as CGI under a suExec regime.

/etc/apache2/httpd.include as written by Plesk looks like this:

Code:
...
<Directory "/var/www/vhosts">
  ...
  php_admin_flag engine off
</Directory>

PHP is installed as CGI, not as a module, so Apache doesn't know what php_admin_flag is and will refuse to start.

Here's how the lines should look like:

Code:
...
<Directory "/var/www/vhosts">
  ...
  <IfModule mod_php4>
    php_admin_flag engine off
  </IfModule>
</Directory>

(There should probably be a corresponding section for PHP3, but I don't know how the syntax might vary.)

As a temporary fix, I'm still loading mod_php4, but it's just a waste of RAM (which isn't plentiful on that particular machine).

Is there another workaround, one that doesn't require loading mod_php3 or manually updating httpd.include after ever change?
