• 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.

Issue Cannot enable piped logs; says Error: Unable to set the mpm_event mode: it requires Apache PHP5 modu

When I enter the Tools->Apache settings, I toggled piped logins, but when I exit I get the warning

Error: Unable to set the mpm_event mode: it requires Apache PHP5 module turned off but this module is used by domains.

therefore I am unable to change anything on that page.
What shall I do?
 
I guess it has to do with the vendor php Version which seems to be enabled and used on your system, therefore take into consider to install the additional php 5.x version from plesk component installer and switch the domains to it and disable then under Plesk Panel > Tools & Settings > Apache Web Server Settings the php 5 Module

under Plesk Panel > Tools & Settings > PHP Settings > you can see which Domains are using which php handler

take also into consider that an enabled Apache handler mod_php is not safe as it is outdated and insecure. Use PHP in FastCGI or FPM mode instead. Should the php5 module be enabled?
