• 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.

Centos 4.x - from 7.5.4 to 8 topic

Hi,

On CentOS 4.x most of us tricked Plesk's software as if CentOS was Redhat EL 4 (the redhat-release file mod) ...

But since Plesk now SUPPORTS Centos 4 ... what is to be expected on upgrades on these systems ?

Can we just restore the original 'Centos redhat-release file' and upgrade to Plesk 8 ?

Anyone has some experience yet ?
 
You'd be better continuing to use the RHEL releases in my opinion, as upgrading to CentOS builds could cause problems as it won't have been tested.
 
I have upgraded a Centos4.3 7.5.4 (cloaked as RHEL4) on Virtuozzo to 8.0.0. When I run the RHEL4 updater it gave the blacklist error. Then I changed the /etc/redhat-release file to Centos. Ran the same updater again and then it upgraded without problems with the Centos Plesk files.
 
Indeed .. i've done an update test on a virtual VMWare machine, while using standard CentOS' redhat-release file.

All RHEL4 psa rpms are overwritten. But some of them stay intact .. i guess because Plesk 8's version of those files are the same (like Frontpage extensions .. etc...).
 
correct. I wish Swsoft just make one version and check for two versions of redhat-release. This way it is much more transparant.
