Hi Igor,

thank you for answering. I guess this are the important lines:

#Unable to install the both psa-spf2-1.2.9-10071608.i586 and spf2-1.2.5-0.279666.i586 because they are conflict with each other.Could not add package spf2-1.2.5-0.279666.i586to the list of required packages.Problem occured during searching directly resolved dependencies for 'libspf2.so.2' of package psa-mail-driver-common-9.5.3-suse11.1.build95101022.06.i586 -- Check for new version of PSA_9.5.3/plesk-9.5.3-suse11.1-i386.inf3
Filefetcher: get file (~empty)/PSA_9.5.3/plesk-9.5.3-suse11.1-i386.inf3
Error: start packages list for resolver is empty


What can I do?
 
If you have psa-spf2 or spf2 packages already installed - try to remove them before upgrade.
 
Thank you for answering. How do I remove packages?

With rpm package utility. 'man rpm' for details. Contact support team if you are not familiar with Linux command line utilities.
