Plesk 12.0.11 - Fail2Ban error - when enabling first time

Dominor, is this problem actual for Plesk 12.0.12? Switching on works well on one of our demo servers - Plesk 12.0.12 demo

Dominor, is this problem actual for Plesk 12.0.12? Switching on works well on one of our demo servers - Plesk 12.0.12 demo

It spits out errors only at very first time when enabling all Fail2ban jails. When I disable and enable all fail2ban jails again - it doesn't show any errors anymore. This error is shown only for the very first time after clean install of panel.

try on Ubuntu 12.04.4 LTS clean install

try on Ubuntu 12.04.4 LTS clean install

can you specify the list of plesk components or installation type on your server?
do you have horde component installed?

It spits out errors only at very first time when enabling all Fail2ban jails.

What's the purpose of enabling all jails if some of them correspond to services that cannot even be installed together (like QMail and Postfix)?

At first - your Fail2ban Plesk module should hide Jails for those services which are not installed - otherwise it's confusing - why to show jails for those services which are not installed, just make them hidden; also hide and automaticaly disable each related jail if any of related process(es)/services/components were uninstalled - for example if I uninstall dovecot and install courier - fail2ban jail for dovecot should be automaticaly disabled and just hidden from jails list and courier jail should appear on jails list but not activated automaticaly, same example with roundcube, horde and other components - if they're not installed - hide them, disable them automatically.

Quick question regarding Fail2Ban..

If I have installed Fail2Ban (from ubuntu repo) on Ubuntu 12.04.4 LTS running Plesk 11.5.30 #36 am I likely to experience any issues if I then upgrade to Plesk 12 (when released) and enable Fail2Ban within Plesk later.

From what I can tell on my Ubuntu 12.04.4 LTS, Plesk 12 server it's the version from the Ubuntu repo, so it should just add the plesk jails etc and overwrite the current.

Thanks in advance for any info.

Kind regards

Lloyd

I'm not sure that it will work without any unpredictable consequences. I would not risk.

We develop with consideration of pre-installed fail2ban. So it shall work in final 12.0 and we test it.

That's good to know, thanks.

While I'm here, I ran the update to 12.0.11 (from 12.0.10) when released but something appears to have gone wrong/not applied as it still shows 12.0.10 on the Panel homepage, and under Tools & Settings -> Server Components

psa 12.0.10-ubuntu12.04.build120140214.21

I tried to run it from SSH but still nothing.

Could you pack and share all logs from /var/log/plesk/install/?

 

[Lloyd_mcse]

Sure, here we go..

 

[Kirill K]

Sure, here we go..

Looks very strange. Could you execute at command line next command:

export PLESK_INSTALLER_VERBOSE=1

run upgrade again and upload /var/log/plesk/installer/ here?

P.S. may be it is better to upgrade to 12.0.12?

P.S. may be it is better to upgrade to 12.0.12?

Is there a command that I can use to specify 12.0.12?

I've tried...

plesk installer install-all-updates

and

plesk installer install-panel-updates

Thanks for the help

Those commands will safely update you in scope of current version, they will not upgrade your installation to another version (that is 12.0.12). To upgrade to latest preview release available you may use the following command:

# plesk installer --all-versions --select-product-id plesk --select-release-latest --upgrade-installed-components

That's a really useful feedback that I really hope will be taken into account by Parallels.

However it doesn't really answer my question (that was rhetorical, please don't reply).
