Another way to play with latest preview is to use Docker image.
If you have Docker installed you can run the following command:

docker run -d -p 8880:8880 plesk/plesk:preview

After that you can open the URL in a browser. E.g. http://localhost:8880

P.S. Default credentials: admin / changeme

Hi Igor,

For testing purposes I installed Plesk 17.8.1 on Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS‬ on vultr.com (High performance SSD cloud) using the following command:

sh <(curl http://autoinstall.plesk.com/one-click-installer || wget -O - http://autoinstall.plesk.com/one-click-installer) --all-versions

Configuration:
OS: Ubuntu 16.04 x64
RAM: 2048 MB
Storage: 40 GB SSD
Location: Seattle

I secured my domain with Let's Encrypt, activated Fail2Ban (Ip-address banning) and ModSecurity (Web Application Firewall), then I pulled my website content from our git repository and installed KernelCare + some other extensions - all with the free trial key!

Looks great, especially the new extension catalog landingpage. Additionally I appreciate it very much that redirects from HTTP to HTTPS on domain aliases have been improved to make a single SEO-safe redirect with HTTP response code 301.

Thank you!

If you have Docker installed you can run the following command:

docker run -d -p 8880:8880 plesk/plesk:preview

After that you can open the URL in a browser. E.g. http://localhost:8880

P.S. Default credentials: admin / changeme

You should open the other important ports as well:

docker run -d -p 80:80 -p 443:443 -p 8880:8880 -p 8443:8443 -p 8447:8447 plesk/plesk:preview

Set to "fresh" Debian 8.8‬. Did not install anything - error phpMyAdmin

 

[SibProgrammer]

Thank you for your report. We'll take a look.

 

[SibProgrammer]

As for phpMyAdmin the problem is confirmed and will be fixed in the next preview. Internal reference PPP-29419

 

[DmitriyK]

Not updated time zone. I tried several times. Several times I moved to the login screen - authorization. Numbers and dates are set arbitrarily ("fresh" Debian 8.8)

Not updated time zone. I tried several times. Several times I moved to the login screen - authorization. Numbers and dates are set arbitrarily ("fresh" Debian 8.8)

Can't reproduce it on CentOS 7.2.
Do you have any specified timezone here:

# grep zone /opt/psa/admin/conf/php.ini

?

Now the time is synchronized (possibly after rebooting the server)

 

[DmitriyK]

I stop the DNS server. But after rebooting the server, the DNS is on. This is normal?

 

[DmitriyK]

Is there an error in the file /opt/psa/admin/conf/php.ini? Missing unit of measure -M

 

[DmitriyK]

Partial loss of localization.
Occurs after saving settings configure website


UPD: I found, followed by an error with the localization: I'm using a file manager SPRUT.io - Web File Manager It uses Docker
That's after working with Sprut - this error occurs.
This is not a problem for me

Website Preview Settings - Default Quick Preview = Do not load CSS
Website Preview Settings - Quick Preview on a domain name in Plesk = OK


Website Preview Settings - it is necessary to close the link from indexing by search engines.
At least: <META NAME="ROBOTS" CONTENT="NOINDEX, NOFOLLOW">

Unknown error and on the version 17.8 - https://talk.plesk.com/threads/mods...en-unable-to-download-tortix-rule-set.343360/

 

[DmitriyK]

I will be able to update the test release 17.8.1 in the future to a stable?

 

[IgorG]

Upgrade from Preview version is not allowed.

 

[DmitriyK]

Thank you, then now I will reinstall the stable

 

[IgorG]

@DmitriyK sorry for the incorrect information above. I asked the developers and they informed me that you can upgrade preview version to release version and from preview to preview versions too.
If you use Preview version only for testing, it would be better to use clean release installation instead of upgrade for using Plesk in production.

Thank you. I continue to use v 17.8, helping you to identify errors. And then just update
