Plesk and FC9

[sungamer]

Is there a way to get Plesk to install on Fedora 9?

Running the auto-installer gives the error message that openssl's not found (FC9 comes with openssl.so.7, plesk installer requies 6)

Thanks!

You could probably install it through yum

Thanks for the reply.

I've tried yum install psa and all such varieties - also installed the atomic repository. It tries to look for a psa version for fc9, which doesn't exist (the newest version in that repository is fc7?)

Any ideas?

Thanks!

That repository still has Plesk 8.3 and support for Fedora 8 was just added in Plesk 8.4. You could try to get Plesk installed on Fedora 9, but do you really want to run Plesk on an OS that is not supported by Plesk?

Ive got an interim Plesk 8.4 yum repo here:

http://3es.atomicrocketturtle.com/channels/plesk/8.4.0

You can probably use the Fedora 8 channel on that.

Confirmed Stable versions?

Are FC8 & FC9 confirmed stable versions to use on real servers?Asking because just did setup few days ago a new server and had a good look around what was reliable at the moment.And after a long research i opted for FC 7..Confirmed experiences are always the best to rely on no?

You guys are absolutely right - I'm downgrading the server to FC8 - I figure that should be stable "enough" And it's not mission critical..

Fedora 7 has reached end of life, which means no more (security) updates are released for Fedora 7 OS packages. If you're looking for something stable I suggest going with RHEL/CentOS 5.

so you all see that i did a little misstake not knowing that FC7 was at the end of his existence,should have had a better look around...mmm..well yeah like most of us there is not enough time in a lifetime to learn or knowing everything

I think Fedora 8 is EOL'd in the fall.
