• Debian 11 is approaching its end-of-life (vendor EOL date - August 31, 2026). Plesk Obsidian 18.0.80 will be the last release to support it.
    If you are running Plesk Obsidian on Debian 11, we recommend you upgrade those servers to Debian 12 using our dist-upgrade tool.
  • We plan to deprecate and remove the support for XML RPC protocol versions earlier than 1.6.9.1 in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.82. We strongly recommend that you update all existing integrations using earlier versions of the XML RPC protocol to comply with the version 1.6.9.1 specification.

Issue Dropbox: Transport error: Extension transport: ext://dropbox-backup/server

ayadai

New Pleskian
Dropbox is configured as our default full server backup method, scheduled daily. The error, Transport error: Extension transport: ext://dropbox-backup/server displayed every time until I installed the panel.ini editor and revised the settings as follows:

[ext-dropbox-backup] ConnectionTimeout 30 90
[ext-dropbox-backup] RequestTimeout 300 600
[ext-dropbox-backup] PauseBetweenAttempts 30 15

After the panel.ini configuration changes, the backup manager now loads (after a long delay as expected) inconsistently. If it does not load, the Transport error: Extension transport displays in red at the top and the latest backup shows as unavailable. If it does load, the latest backup shows as successful, but with the message, "The backup (time/date) was created, although some issues occurred and the backup might not be entirely valid." Upon viewing the log, the error, Failed to exec pmm-ras: Exit code: 129: Transport error: Extension transport: ext://dropbox-backup/server displays.

Plesk Obsidian Web Host Edition Version 18.0.37 Update #2
