• 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.

Horde admin email removed after each update

TomBoB

Silver Pleskian
Plesk 12.0.18#14, CentOS6.5

in order to have a Horde admin email we open
/etc/psa-webmail/horde/horde/conf.php

and change
$conf['auth']['admins'] = array();
into
$conf['auth']['admins'] = array('[email protected]');

Works fine. This change than reverses itself after every Plesk update incl micro updates.
Are we editing the right file / is there an underlying one we should edit instead?
Cannot find a setting in Plesk itself to configure a Horde admin email.

Cheers,

Tom
 
Have you tried to configure Horde admin email directly from Horde interface?
 
Done the following:

Created admin email as above and logged in. Option > Administration - Users sais "Adding users is disabled. Your authentication backend does not support adding users. If you wish to use Horde to administer user accounts, you must use a different authentication backend."

Going > Administration - Configuration - Horde - Authentication, I can edit the admin email address to another one; but to get as far as this I had to add it using the above method in the first place. The admin mail will still be deleted after the next update. Happend 4 times now.

Followed roughly older instructions on http://forum.parallels.com/showthread.php?82169-Configure-Horde-webmail

Would be grateful if you could point me in the right direction. Seems I'm missing something somewhere...

Thanks :)

Did a manual update > tools & settings - upgrade/update last night to 12.0.18#15 last night (before once-a-week autoupdate came along). It did not reverse to previous file version but kept the Horde admin email in place. Same behaviour on both our servers.

Will post back after next autoupdate.
 
Autoupdate updated both our servers to 12.0.18#16 and the admin email was kept in place. Not sure what caused the initial problem.

Would it be possible to add above setting to "tools and settings - webmail" UI in plesk as a feature in case horde is used? Makes adding an admin email easier.
