The reported IP address registered in Plesk does not exist on the server. To repair the issue you need to add IP address back to the system.

The following error has occurred and the upgrade stopped:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
apache2-mpm-event : Depends: apache2 (= 2.4.7-1ubuntu4.5) but 2.4.16-3+deb.sury.org~trusty+1 is to be installed

 

[UFHH01]

Hi Liwindo,

The following error has occurred and the upgrade stopped:

unfortunately, the apache2-dependencies are set to the stable, official vendor's versions on Ubuntu's servers, so you might consider to downgrade to your apache2 - vendor's version first, continue/finish the Plesk-upgrade and re-upgrade to "Ondřej Surý"'s apache - version again afterwards.

What's wrong?

Those errors have nothing to do with Plesk. Your server is having trouble with the rpmforge repo you have enabled. Currently I've upgraded a few systems to Plesk 12.5. Everything looks good. Congrats to the Plesk team for putting out such a great release. The new incremental backups,database tools, and UI are pretty sweet.

I really like the new interface and am starting to use 12.5 for windows today! I will report any issues I see or run into. One thing I was really excited about and waiting on was the integration of external DNS in 12.5 for windows. It's listed in the change log but I cannot find it anywhere under the extension catalog. Any ideas? Having the ability to use external DNS servers really makes a big difference when you have multiple Plesk servers and want to use the same set of name servers. FYI, not talking about route 53 but bind slaves.

Thanks!

93. [*] Slave DNS Manager and Amazon Route 53 extensions are now available for Windows-based Plesk installations.

Plesk Version 12.5.30

I cannot see this in the Extension Catalog. Anyone have any insight to this? Am I missing something or have to install manually? Please advise.

Thanks!

 

[vlikhtanskiy]

Hello,

Amazon Route 53 is available both for Linux and Windows: https://ext.plesk.com/packages/ed1860ee-45c5-4e2b-b6b7-44e5da69dca5-route53

Maybe your provider blacklisted this extension? You can try to download the extension from the URL above and try to install it manually in the UI.

Those errors have nothing to do with Plesk. Your server is having trouble with the rpmforge repo you have enabled.

Where can I select the rpmforge repo then?

 

[danami]

Where can I select the rpmforge repo then?

You should have the rpmforge repo file in /etc/yum.repos.d/ . Edit the file and change enabled = 0

 

[yabado]

FYI - This micro-update has new version of proFTPd. If you had any custom code in your
/etc/proftpd.conf file, then you will need to add it back in.

Hello,

Amazon Route 53 is available both for Linux and Windows: https://ext.plesk.com/packages/ed1860ee-45c5-4e2b-b6b7-44e5da69dca5-route53

Thanks for the reply vlikhtanskiy but I see route 53. What I need is the 'Slave DNS Manager' not route 53. The changelog for windows 12.5 Plesk shows it's there but I cannot see it anywhere. Do I need to install this manually?

Thanks,

Tony

Hello;

I would like to host like 6 sites and i want them to use my company NS which is the main site instead of each sites having its own NS

Slave DNS Manager for Windows is now only in development phase and possibly will be released a bit later. Right now Slave DNS Manager is availabe in extensions catalog only for Linux.

 

[HoracioS]

Igor,

The server has only two IPsne IPV4 and one IPV6!!!
The only site on the server use IPV4 and the report is about IPV4.

I run:
[root@xxxx ~]# /usr/local/psa/admin/sbin/httpdmng --reconfigure-all
[root@xxxx ~]# /usr/local/psa/admin/sbin/httpdmng --reconfigure-server

And the problem still persist. I think is a bug when IPV6 is present on the Panel and I can't remove it.

The reported IP address registered in Plesk does not exist on the server. To repair the issue you need to add IP address back to the system.

Hi HoracioS,

please have a look at another Plesk CLI utility:

/usr/local/psa/bin/ipmanage --help​

As you can see, you have several options, using it:

Usage: ipmanage command [options]

    Available commands:
    --create or -c     <IP>            Creates the specified IP address.
    --update or -u     <IP>            Updates the specified IP address.
    --remove or -r     <IP>            Deletes the specified IP address.
    --reread                           Rereads the IP addresses.
    --help or -h                       Displays this help page.
    --ip_list or -l                    Displays the list of IP addresses.
    --ssl_list or -s                   Displays the list of available SSL
                                       certificates.
    --inter_list or -f                 Displays the list of available
                                       interfaces.
    --xml-info or -xi                  Displays the list of IP addresses in
                                       XML format.
    --reset_ssl_certificate            Sets the default SSL certificate for
                                       all IP addresses.
    --auto-remap-ip-addresses <true|false>
                                       Defines whether to perform the
                                       automatic mapping of IP addresses on
                                       Plesk startup. Use the option in cases
                                       when the registered IP addresses are
                                       changed (for example, when cloning a
                                       VPS with Plesk).

    Available options:
    -type      <shared|exclusive>      IP address type (required for
                                       creation).
    -ssl_certificate   <name>          SSL certificate name.
    -mask              <MASK>          Subnet mask.
    -interface         <dev>           Interface name.
    -public_ip         <IP>            Public IP address.

Plesk provides as well a very nice and all - including dosumentation for CLI - commands:

Thank you, that worked!
Do you suggest to change it back to 1 now?

Thanks for clarification. I'd suggest you guys remove that from the changelog as it's kind of misleading! If you need anyone to test it on Windows 12.5 let me know. I'd be happy to.

Thanks!

Tony
