• Halloween is coming! To celebrate the occasion, we dusted off a couple of old skins, and even created a brand new one (Pixel).
    To get into the festive spirit, install the Skins extension.
  • The new Python extension is now available. It allows customers to deploy and manage WSGI-based Python applications on their websites directly from Plesk.
  • The Plesk Mobile apps for iOS and Android and the Plesk Mobile Center extension have been deprecated, and are no longer available for new installations. In Plesk Obsidian 18.0.84, the Plesk Mobile Center extension will be removed from servers during the upgrade, and the Plesk Mobile apps will lose their server management features.
  • The Social Login extension has been deprecated and will be removed in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.84. After that, it will no longer be possible to log in to Plesk with a Google, Facebook, GitHub account, or with a passkey. Plesk usernames and passwords, as well as logging in with a WebPros Account, are not affected.

FreeBSD 6.x and Plesk 8.1.x - known issues

Hi,

Currently we have several servers running FreeBSD 4.x / FreeBSD 6.x and Plesk 7.5.4. We are in the process of updating those servers to a freshly installed FreeBSD 6.2 server and migrating them directly to 8.1.1

We did however find some issues, which seem to come bak on every migration.

Seems to me more providers are having these same problems, and it sounds like a good idea to share these problems and sum them up in a complete list.

Who's with me?

First errors we encountered during migration from 7.5.4 to a freshly installed 8.1.1 machine:

- rename /usr/local/psa/qmail/control/dhparam1024.pem to dh1024.pem
- rename /usr/local/psa/qmail/control/dhparam512.pem to dh512.pem
- webmail functional?
- p5-Mail-SPF-Query needs to be installed:
cd /usr/ports/mail/p5-Mail-SPF-Query
make install distclean
- rm -Rf /var/tmp
- ln -s /tmp/ /var/tmp

- in case of an upgrade on the same server from 7.5.4

- Causing 'can not re-insert mail errors in log'

chown drweb:qmail qmail-queue
chown drweb:qmail qmail-queue.drweb
chown qmailq:qmail qmail-queue.origin
cp qmail-queue qmail-queue.bak
cp qmail-queue.drweb qmail-queue
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/qmail restart

- Catchall mailaccounts not migrated (someone with a quick fix?)
- On 1 server we found out the limits are not migrated, causing every clients and domain to have unlimited access (...).

Please send your feedback and experiences!
