• Halloween is coming! To celebrate the occasion, we dusted off a couple of old skins, and even created a brand new one (Pixel).
    To get into the festive spirit, install the Skins extension.
  • The new Python extension is now available. It allows customers to deploy and manage WSGI-based Python applications on their websites directly from Plesk.
  • The Plesk Mobile apps for iOS and Android and the Plesk Mobile Center extension have been deprecated, and are no longer available for new installations. In Plesk Obsidian 18.0.84, the Plesk Mobile Center extension will be removed from servers during the upgrade, and the Plesk Mobile apps will lose their server management features.
  • The Social Login extension has been deprecated and will be removed in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.84. After that, it will no longer be possible to log in to Plesk with a Google, Facebook, GitHub account, or with a passkey. Plesk usernames and passwords, as well as logging in with a WebPros Account, are not affected.

Plesk on VMWare?

Hello all,

I'm interested on taking my entire FC3 installation on my server and copying it to a virtual machine using VMWare on my home computer where I can attempt an upgrade to Plesk 8.0 from 7.5.4. This way, if anything goes wrong, it's not on my production server.

However, am I going to run into problems because of licensing? Is my plesk license code ever transmitted back while running or doing an upgrade that is going to lock out my real server? Has anyone tried this? I know I could download the trial 1 domain Plesk, but I'd like this virtual machine to be almost identical to my production server so that I can really see if anything is going to go wrong.

Let me know if anyone has any thoughts.

Thanks in advance!

~Jeff
