Dot files (.htaccess etc.) not migrated

[Pegasus2]

I migrated websites from plesk 9.5 to 10.0.1 on a new server. Both with Centos 5.
I found that all dot files like .htaccess, .passwd or any other dot file, are not migrated to the new server. The same problem with plesk 10.0.0.
I think that this is a BIG problem.

Is this going to be fixed soon?

 

[lhwparis]

can confirm this and yes its a major issue

migrating from 9.5 to 10.0.1

I noticed that ONLY my .htaccess files from the ROOT /httpdocs/ where not transferred
.htaccess / .htpasswd files out of the root where migrated

1. .../httpdocs/.htaccess -> not migrated
2. .../httpdocs/blabla/.htaccess -> migrated

plesk 10 rescue does not copy hidden files (.htaccess) in httpdocs folder, you need made it manually, help us with tool (mc midnight commander ), i've same problem

When we ll see an update or a hotfix for this problem? Its realy annoying. Many web-apps place a rewirte .htaccess file in the root directory. any of this webapps isnt working after migration i dont want to copy this files manually!

hope detailed information helps to get a bugfix:

PRODUCT, VERSION, OPERATING SYSTEM, ARCHITECTURE
PLESK, 10, Ubuntu 10.04, x64

PROBLEM DESCRIPTION AND STEPS TO REPRODUCE
Migrate a domain with a .htaccess file in httpdocs folder (not a subfolder), this .htaccess (or any other file starting with a dot) is not migrated!

ACTUAL RESULT
the .htaccess file is lost on the new system

EXPECTED RESULT
the .htaccess file should be migrated correctly to keep web-apps working after migration

ANY ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
source server for migration: Plesk 9.5 Ubuntu 8.04 x64 (but this problem is system independent)

I have forwarded it to developers.

is this critical bug fixed in 10.1? can not find anything about it in the 10.1 changelog

Workaround: use rsync transport option on migration start page.

Workaround: use rsync transport option on migration start page.

That rsync option does not help, .htaccess is missing.

Plesk 10.1, migrating from 9.5, both Centos 5.

On debian 5 with plesk 10.1.1, .htaccess are well forwarded for me ...

 

[lhwparis]

with or without ryns option? i think this is the key information. for me with rsync it works without not!

With rsync option indeed
