  • The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.
  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

Question How to make fail2ban logpath aware of logs in Plesk managed domains

I'm using Nextcloud and want to set its logfile to fail2ban's logpath. But when I specify the Nextcloud log(/var/www/vhosts/MYACCOUT/nextcloud/data/nextcloud.log), fail2ban gets failed.
It seems that fail2ban can only be specified in /var/log or some other area. For example, I can't specify "/var/www/vhosts/MYACCOUT/logs/test.log" or "/var/www/vhosts/MYACCOUT/test.log" as logpath to start fail2ban.

How can I specify a directory in Plesk management to fail2ban?
 
I had forgotten about SELINUX. So it seems to be blocked. If I Permissive or disable, fail2ban works.
I mechanically set SELINUX according to the official manual.

The following is directed by it
Code:
semanage fcontext -a -t httpd_sys_rw_content_t '/var/www/html/nextcloud/data(/.*)?'

This specifies all files under the data directory, right?
So I tried deleting only the nextcloud.log setting in the data directory.

Code:
semanage fcontext -d '/var/www/html/nextcloud/data/nextcloud.log'
Then the error message "not defined" will appear. Of course, path is replaced with my correct information.

I want to protect the data directory itself with selinux, but only open the log file. How can I do this?
