I just don't get it as it only shows on the home page of the Plesk Control Panel under System Overview table but I have just ran Plesk Reconfigure Tool repairing Plesk Database instead and it is not showing that anymore same as at Updates and Upgrades page after you fixed the bug.

We are delaying it a little and would expect release in mid-Jun.

Any update on this release date? Just got a new 11.0 dedicated server which I would love to have the new features of 11.5.

Plesk 11.5 has become available yesterday in "early adopter" phase. It will be announced widely today-tomorrow.

Plesk 11.5 has become available yesterday in "early adopter" phase. It will be announced widely today-tomorrow.

Does it still have the limitation of no upgrade path from 'Preview' software, or is this early adopter able to be kept as production (non-essential production) and updated ongoing?

 

[Sergey L]

"early adopter" is full production quality system, you can upgrade to and from it. Some days you will receive an update making it "regular", and some later "stable".

Are we still required to use the Preview license with this early release? I'm getting the following when installing through Parallels Installer on a fresh system.

Failed to download the package http://autoinstall.plesk.com/PSA_11.5.30/plesk_getkeyinfo.sh:
The requested URL returned error: 404

Failed to check whether a new license key is available.

Ok - looks like the installer script is back in place now... Thanks!

I see 11.5 is now in production at http://www.parallels.com/products/plesk/download/ but I still don't see it in Parallels Installer web interface from the plesk control panel to upgrade the product yet? or maybe I need to wait for another day or so?

Probably you have chosen to see only "regular" or "late adopter" releases in your "Update and Upgrade Settings".
Another probable reason is that regional download cache didn't receive updates at the time you tried it yesterday. It must be already refreshed today. Let us know if it worked for you.

Ok on the production server I went ahead at http://www.parallels.com/products/plesk/download/ and upgraded it instead. I think everything is working fine but there was a problem as while waiting on upgrading Parallels Panel core components and many hours later I got curious to rather to restart the server instead... After it is restarted I launched ai.exe again I only had to update components... I ran plesk reconfigure repairing plesk file security for just incase. I also made sure ai.exe is in as suggested at http://kb.parallels.com/en/116344

Of course I have submitted a idea and you can see it at http://plesk.uservoice.com/forums/184549-general/suggestions/4132064-smarterstats-address

Hi Ryan,

Sometimes upgrade may be quite long - depending on amount of domains and available services. i.e. ColdFusion and Tomcat would make upgrade slower. You said it was several hours for you. Would you use any of ColdFusion/Tomcat? How many domains would you have?

Regards

 

[Ryan11433]

right now there is 5 domains and no I'm not using coldfusion even tomcat at the moment. Do you think it is upgraded successfully anyway because what I see so far it seem so.
