  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.
  • The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.

CHMOD, Plesk and FTP Clients

Hello there!

I'm trying to change CHMOD permissions for some files through my FTP client
But I suppose this is not possible, since the settings don't change at all.
Anyway, even if I change the permissions for "Plesk IIS WP User" (which I guess is what should be changed...) for the respective file through Plesk panel, when I look at the file's properties through FTP client, its CHMOD are still the same.

Well, that's it.

Thanks in advance,

Hênio.
 
chmod will work only if your website is hosted on unix platform. It's not applicable for windows platform.

You can change permissions from file manager in control panel
 
I am having the same issue, and realise now that as I am on a Windows server can not CHMOD. How then, do you CHMOD (equivalent) on a Windows server?

I have looked at the Plesk file manager and can 'change permissions' to Admin, Pleask IIS User, Pleask IIS WP IWAM User, Pleask Domain user, or SYSTEM. Is this is the same set of permissions as I need to be looking at?

However, even when all these are set to 'Full Control' I still get this error when trying to run an install script with Wordpress:

Warning: touch() [function.touch]: Unable to create file D:\xxx\httpdocs\cms/wp-content/arras-theme.tmp because Permission denied in D:\xxx\httpdocs\cms\wp-admin\includes\file.php on line 199
 
You have to change the permissions for IUSR or IWPD user from the file manager in plesk control panel. IUSR is applicable
for static pages and iwpd user is applicable incase of dynamic pages
