Resolved Centos 7.5 rkhunter watchdog warnings

[Topkat]

Hi,

I have a Centos 7.5 server running Plesk Onyx 17.8. I installed a program called watchdog which gave these warnings. How can I fix them? I’m tempted to switch server and do a fresh install of everything. But first I’d like some feedback from some of you experts out there. Are these warnings easily fixable?

perhaps this knowledge base entry would be helpful for understanding: What Watchdog warnings can be safely ignored on a Plesk server

Thanks for replying. It looks like I can ignore these errors. I think that Plesk should update their software so we don't get these warnings with a default setup.

rkhunter is not Plesk software, it is third-party component used in Plesk. And warnings are not errors. They are just for your attention.
