• Debian 11 is approaching its end-of-life (vendor EOL date - August 31, 2026). Plesk Obsidian 18.0.80 will be 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.

Issue Plesk websites is broken after this command

E.Swestberg

New Pleskian
I typed this command to console.
"sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www"
After that command my Plesk websites is not working anymore.

Error:
Internal Server Error
The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.....

Any suggestion what I can try to fix it, please ?
my website folders are at "/var/www/vhosts/websites.com/" if that helps.

My setup is:
Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS and Plesk version: 12.0.18 Update #96

On my sever
/var/www/cgi-bin is root:root including subdirectories and files
/var/www/html is root:root including subdir and files
/var/www/usage is webalizer:root including subdir and files
vhosts is the one you probably messed up.
/var/www/vhosts is root:root but the subdirectories and files are appropriate for the domain user account.

chown "your_plesk_username: psaserv /var/www/vhosts/yourdomain/"
chown -R "your_plesk_username: psacln /var/www/vhosts/yourdomain/httpdocsdir"
chown "your_plesk_username: psaserv /var/www/vhosts/yourdomain/httpdocsdir"
I also have a few other directories, anon_ftp, cgi-bin, httpsdocs, and private which are "your_plesk_username: psaserv" ( I had to put a space between : and psaserve and psacln else I get a :p )

I'm sure there is a KB on proper file permissions kicking around.
 
# /usr/local/psa/bin/repair --restore-vhosts-permissions
