• Hi, Pleskians! We are running a UX testing of our upcoming product intended for server management and monitoring.
    We would like to invite you to have a call with us and have some fun checking our prototype. The agenda is pretty simple - we bring new design and some scenarios that you need to walk through and succeed. We will be watching and taking insights for further development of the design.
    If you would like to participate, please use this link to book a meeting. We will sent the link to the clickable prototype at the meeting.
  • (Plesk for Windows):
    MySQL Connector/ODBC 3.51, 5.1, and 5.3 are no longer shipped with Plesk because they have reached end of life. MariaDB Connector/ODBC 64-bit 3.2.4 is now used instead.
  • The Horde webmail has been deprecated. Its complete removal is scheduled for April 2025. For details and recommended actions, see the Feature and Deprecation Plan.

Resolved Failed to start network scripts

Hello,
I am running almalinux 8.10 with Plesk 18.00.66 (the latest, I believe) and I observe the following errors at boot:

network[870]: Bringing up interface eno16780032:
network[1050]: Error: Connection activation failed: No suitable device found for this connect>
network[870]: [FAILED]
systemd[1]: network.service: Control process exited, code=exited status=1
systemd[1]: network.service: Failed with result 'exit-code'.
Failed to start LSB: Bring up/down networking.
It is advised to switch to 'NetworkManager' instead for network management

And this is the result of systemctl status network:

network.service - LSB: Bring up/down networking
Loaded: loaded (/etc/rc.d/init.d/network; generated)
Active: failed (Result: exit-code) since Thu 2025-01-16 10:39:21 CET; 4 days ago

I saw a suggestion to 'reread' the IP addresses, which I did, and also to disable firewalld. No change to the above status.
Shall I migrate to NetworkManager and, if so, how, please?

Thank you for your attention and advice
 
Thanks. I found out that I am already running NetworkManager and that disabling/stopping network-scripts won't affect my system. It only gives those errors when checking the network.service status. I guess I would need some clean-up along the way, but things look ok for now.
