Resolved Debian 8 - Supported?

[Guarddog]

According to this Plesk documentation page, Plesk is supported on Debian 8 - both 32 band 64 bit editions.

This page here gives three simple commands you can use to install Plesk on a clean system.

I tried it, nothing. The script returned no error and did nothing.

So I started debugging the script myself. The script dies (without any error) when trying to determine what version of Debian it is running on. The script can't get past that, so you can't do the install.

Is Plesk really supported on Debian 8, or should I be looking at falling back to 7?

Hi Guarddog
yeah I have a Debian 8.4 VPS running Plesk 12.5.30 with no issue.
Install on a blank OS with just SSH installed and you should be fine.
Make sure you set up the /etc/apt/source.list...

# nano /etc/apt/sources.list

Adding...

# Security updates
deb http://security.debian.org/ jessie/updates main contrib non-free
deb-src http://security.debian.org/ jessie/updates main contrib non-free
## Debian mirror
# Base repository
deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian jessie main contrib non-free

# chmod +x plesk-installer
# ./plesk-installer

Thanks @Lloyd_mcse , I had not added that to the sources.list.

I loaded my sources list and I see mine does not say jessie, it says stretch so looks like I somehow installed a beta version of Debian or something. I will try and get a non beta version and try again and report back here.

I downgraded to Jessie and it works perfectly. Not sure how I ended up downloading the stretch version but that was the issue.
