• The new Python extension is now available. It allows customers to deploy and manage WSGI-based Python applications on their websites directly from Plesk.
  • Debian 11 has reached its end-of-life (vendor EOL date - August 31, 2026). Plesk Obsidian 18.0.81 is 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.

Getting intermittent 403 Forbidden errors

I am getting intermittent 403 forbidden errors when browsing a domain.

One minute the site works fine, another I get a 403 page; Forbidden. This domain has its own static IP and is currently using the default plesk SSL cert.

In the logs it shows;
[Thu Dec 04 12:57:17 2008] [error] [client xx.xx.xx.xx] client denied by server configuration: /var/www/vhosts/domain.com/httpsdocs/admin/images/template/cell_bg13.gif, referer: https://www.domain.com//admin/includes/stylesheet.css

Any idea how to solve this?
 
The permissions on httpdocs & httpsdocs were 705. I have changed to 755 to see if there is any improvement.
