Issue Everything works, just plesk is not responding. Reinstall it?

New Pleskian
Hello,

I have quite a big mess on my plesk server, i'm looking at logs but i can't determine what is going one since there is nothing going on.

When i try to open plesk, i just get "waiting" in my browser.

When i try to run some command like "/usr/local/psa/bin/pleskbackup server" again, it just stops.

Websites and all other services works just fine. It shows 12.5 current version.

Is there any way for me to run reinstall plesk but not to damage anything else and to "suck in" all current websites in that reinstalled plesk?

p.s. since it seemed to me that plesk tried to "upgrade" to newer version, i tried this, but it just stops at that point and gives no return:

Check that port 8443 is not firewalled. Check sw-cp-server logs - /var/log/sw-cp-server/error_log and /var/log/sw-cp-server/sw-engine.log
Make sure that you have similar output of command:

# lsof -i tcp:8443
COMMAND PID USER FD TYPE DEVICE SIZE/OFF NODE NAME
sw-cp-ser 19038 root 14u IPv4 83064227 0t0 TCP *:pcsync-https (LISTEN)

Yep i get this:

sw-cp-ser 23737 root 8u IPv4 288975 0t0 TCP *:8443 (LISTEN)

What about

Check that port 8443 is not firewalled. Check sw-cp-server logs - /var/log/sw-cp-server/error_log and /var/log/sw-cp-server/sw-engine.log

?
 
What about

I CURRENTLY STARTED

so that is why this is terminated, the issue is also that this "rerun" is stuck at

and it just blinks...

Since psa was stopped,

i started psa and now i get back to:

Base table or view not found: 1146 Table 'psa.sessions' doesn't exist (Pdo.php:234)


i tried to fix this through: https://kb.plesk.com/en/122876

Try to fix it with

# plesk repair installation
