• 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.

Permission issues

I'm trying to run an executable remotely from the command line on my virtual dedicated server with the PHP function exec(), but for some reason am having access issues with Plesk.

If I use the absolute path I get "Access is Denied," even though fileperms() is telling me that I have 777 permission on the folder and file. If I use chdir to change directories first I get "(file) is not recognized as an internal or external command..." I can echo remotely from the command like to STDOUT and I can manipulate files with fopen() and fputcsv(), but for some reason it's not letting me run any executables remotely. The folder I need to access is copied under system PATH.

I've seen a number of threads on folder/file permission issues with Plesk on this forum, but haven't had success with any of the proposed solutions (e.g., removing "deny" for psacln and psaadm, which doesn't seem to work). Any guidance greatly appreciated.

Thanks
- Fritz
