Resolved plesk system update tools 404error notification

[Stephen_Stephen]

In the last few days I have daily notification with a list of download error from this domain source:
...
2022-02-07 03:35:09 INFO: Error during transfer: Status code: 404 for http://mirror.eu.oneandone.net/linux/distributions/centos/8/AppStream/x86_64/os/repodata/repomd.xml
...

my plesk version currently is 18.0.41, please can someone advise

CentOS 8 reached its end-of-life on December 31st, 2021.
And since January 31st, 2022, repositories for that OS are available only at https://vault.centos.org

In-place conversion of CentOS 8 to AlmaLinux is a recommended way to move from CentOS 8. To convert, download and run AlmaLinux script on a CentOS 8 server.

thanks on plesk do you have any instruction of how to update the packages by switching to https://vault.centos.org, if want to continue with centos 8

Hi, I have the same problem and I would like to know how to tell plesk to get updates from https://vault.centos.org.
Changing OS actually is not an option for me.

Hi i have found a way to quickly change CentOS repos from mirror to vault (need ssh access):

CentOS 8: No URLs in mirrorlist error

If you use CentOS 8, you might have noticed that starting from January 31, 2022, installing packges with yum no longer works with an error…

This allowed me to install Plesk Migrator, this way I will move to a fresh AlmaLInux installation without manually setting up plesk again.

This is not Plesk taking updates from there, but your operating system CentOS8, which is EOLed.
Do you really want to stay on an operating system that will not be supported by Plesk after April?

hi, we have a Fasthosts server with CentOS8 - any suggestions on how we get them to update the OS to another solution? Or am I stuck with CentOS8???

Disable the epel repo

Disable the epel repo

hi, like this?

$ sudo yum-config-manager --disable epel

 

[weareimpulse]

Di

Disable the epel repo

Sorry i'm not sure how to do this, read a few things online, nothing seems to work, I'm not 100% with bits done via SSH etc.

 

[weareimpulse]

Sorted it, had to run

$ sudo yum-config-manager --disable epel

&

$ sudo yum-config-manager --disable epel-modular

Once done, the installer ran and completed - thank you for your help - very much appreciated

hi
thanks for the above advice.

I have updated to Almalinux 8.5 by the In-place conversion, it's a few weeks since. I notice that the plesk is now a newer version (18.0.42), it doesn't seem to update itself even I click the check for update link in the home page.

Would it eventually update?
