Just another fantastic update

[Deleted member 100203]

I've just updated from 11.5.30 to 12.0.18, and yet this another fantastic update. After every update I've to spend a full day looking for fixes because of the update. I'm using a standard Strato configuration, nothing special. But I'm getting a bit frustrated now because I have to spend yet another day looking for fixes...

Just to inform you guys. The problem was/is that Apache2 wouldn't start, the click here button to generate an entirely new set of configuration files didn't work, even as the later click here button that should be pressed when all else fails didn't work. Finally I have reinstalled the server with Ubuntu 14.04 with Plesk 12 and I'm now busy putting back the backup. Fingers crossed though because while it sounds simple my experiance is that I'm busy for a couple of hours.

And after trying to restore for the first time, some of the websites aren't restored... So I'm up for round #2. The error is "Failed deployment of client", because why in Hell shouldn't you restore all site from within a backup???

Great... Up for round #3... All sites are functioning... Only have to restore email... Round #3.

Thanks Parallels for this amazing update... It has completely ruined my sunday. After the second update all sites were working but the only thing I can't get to work is the emails. Each and every mayor update has his own problems, there is no fun in updating

First... please calm down... you won't get any help, just by yelling "HELP ME" and "all is ****" .... why not? Because nobody can investigate your problem, with out any logs, and descriptions. We could only guess and suggestions may not help. If you are unsure, where to find error.logs and configurations, please visit: Parallels Plesk Panel for Linux services logs and configuration files ( KB: 111283 )

I'm sorry for my outbursts. Since Plesk 8.x I've never have done an upgrade without a problem, there is always something. I've once have created all from scratch, so no backups, etc. and from that version to the next it was all screwed up again. I'm was getting really frustrated with this product. Once you've got it running don't do anything because it's going to mess up you day. I've got it running btw, I've manually placed the e-mails in it's folders and changed rights. I've restored a backup three times and all my clients have a running website again, one of my sites is missing in action but I'm working on that. I'll hope Parallels will have an update available very soon so we can function as lab rats yet again. I know... multiple OS's, configurations, etc. make it hard to satisfy everyone, that's okay with me as long as they don't keep dissapointing me.
