• 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.

FTP Problem - limited access denies login

I could not open FTP connect to Plesk server. A check on the server log - /var/log/secure, there is a message:

USER xxxx (Login failed): Limit access denies login


What could be the problem? ProFTPD is started.

Recently have just upgraded from 8.0 to 8.1. But I don't think has anything to do with the upgrade.

Plesk 8.1.0/Virtuozzo
FC4 x86-64

Managed to fix the problem!

It is due to a setting in /etc/proftpd.conf. This was a new Plesk 8.0.1 installation and the default setting :

<Limit LOGIN>
AllowGroup ftpusers
DenyAll
</Limit>

Just remove the line DenyAll and it works.

Not sure why this is the default setting. Note this for new installation of Plesk 8.0.1.
