• 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.

MySQL DB will not restore with Plesk Backup file

I am running Plesk 7.6.1 on a Windows 2003 server and had recently taken multiple backups using the Plesk Backup tool. I had to completely reload the OS and install Plesk again due to a major OS corruption and when I went back to restore the backup files (odlest is about 2 months old to newest which was a day old) I found that it worked fine except it would only restore the DB name and username, but according to MySQL and phpMyAdmin the DB wasn't even there (not blank, it wasn't there at ALL!). So I ensured I was fully patched and tried a few other tricks, but nothing worked. Is there a fix for this or is there a way I can extract the .sql backup files from this .psa file and manually upload them?
 
I have tried a multitude of restore options, but so far none will bring back the data, just the username and the database name.

Anyone else?
