• The new Python extension is now available. It allows customers to deploy and manage WSGI-based Python applications on their websites directly from Plesk.
  • Debian 11 has reached its end-of-life (vendor EOL date - August 31, 2026). Plesk Obsidian 18.0.81 is the last release to support it.
    If you are running Plesk Obsidian on Debian 11, we recommend you upgrade those servers to Debian 12 using our dist-upgrade tool.
  • We plan to deprecate and remove the support for XML RPC protocol versions earlier than 1.6.9.1 in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.82. We strongly recommend that you update all existing integrations using earlier versions of the XML RPC protocol to comply with the version 1.6.9.1 specification.

Plesk 8.4 needs restarting otherwise it crashes

Our Plesk installation (Plesk 8.4 on Linux OpenSuse 10.2) needs frequent reboots otherwise it crashes.
Memory usage is often up to 90% and the load average then is 3.06 of 4.02.
After restart the server's memory usage is 8,5% and the load average is about 0.25.
Could someone give me some hints on how to fix this problem or to find out what causes the problem?
 
Hi,

What processes use most cpu and memory according to top output when this happens?
You can also try to find reason by checking system logs (/var/log/messages) and Plesk error log (/usr/local/psa/admin/logs/httpsd_error_log)

How many processors and how much memory do you have on this server? How many domains does it host?
 
I've checked the logs but can't find an error because there isn't one, the system simply "hangs".
We host about 5 domains, with about 110 GB of datatraffic every month on generating about 15 GB every sunday.
