• 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.

PHP MySQL connection

I've just upgraded from a previous version of plesk and now my MySQL connection from the PHP application no longer works. The database has been created in Plesk and the correct username is there. This is what I'm using:

$dbhost = "localhost";
$dbuser = "user";
$dbpass="password";
$dbname="database1";

$link = mysql_connect($dbhost, $dbuser, $dbpass);
mysql_select_db($dbname, $link) or die(mysql_error());

Can anyone see a reason why this doesn't work.
 
Not sure if this helps but after upgrading from Plesk 7.x to Plesk 8.x some of my PHP applications didn't work.

It was because the configuration files in my PHP apps were set to look for files in /home/httpd/vhosts/ which is where websites are hosted in Plesk 7.x

However in Plesk 8.x they are hosted in /var/www/vhosts/

I had to change all references to get my applications working again.

Hope this helps.
