Problem after upgrading Plesk 11.0.9 to 11.5.29 and installing business manager

MarkRe

New Pleskian
Hi Guys,

Ok I have two problems here, I'm not sure if they are related.

The first is my webmail.* directory no longer points to horde, inside plesk I was getting this message:

[Template_Variable_Domain] Wrong variable to subsitute: enabled

I tried to rebuild them with a link provided with no avail.

The second is I can no longer log into plesk, when I try I get to https://xxx.xxx:8443/relay and get the message:

Can not extract SAML message.

I've tried to repair plesk following this - http://kb.parallels.com/en/9266

Can anyone shed any light on this? I'm stumped.

Edit

I can log in via https://xxx.xxx:8443/plesk-billing/admin/ OK, I've also tried 'Fix Problems With Logging in to Panels' but this doesn't seem to work

Hi!

Can you explain your steps?
I tried to reproduce this bug on Debian6 i386 by following steps:
1. Install Plesk 11.0.9 (Standart)
2. Add Customer with Subscription
3. Add e-mail for Customer (Horde is set by default)
4. Upgrade to 11.5.29 -> All works fine
5. Add Billing, configure -> All works fine
So, I can't reproduce this bug and I need more information about it

The Email problem I've fixed, I had overridden the config with a custom webmailtemplate.php file as shown here:

http://forum.parallels.com/showthre...change-Horde-Webmail-URL-(webmail-domain-com)

I recreated it.

I still have a problem with SSO though, I have to disable it to reach the panel otherwise I get the message "Can not extract SAML message.":

/usr/local/psa/bin/sso --disable
 
Hello I am having a similar problem and has brought me to a stand still.!!!!
all I did was - Upgrade to 11.5.29 - from 11.0.9 (which had small business admin, not used though)

left me with a panel login of -
..-. ..- -.-. -.-
Can not extract SAML message.

here is results of a bootstrapper repair.

TY TY TY - I didn't even think at looking at the SSO - and the suggestion of shutting off was just what I needed to get at the problem

TY again

MarkRe, try to turn on SSO and run
/usr/local/psa/admin/sbin/httpdmng --reconfigure-all
/usr/share/plesk-billing/integration --command=repair-all
/usr/share/plesk-billing/cache -c && /etc/init.d/sw-cp-server restart

No joy I'm afraid:

I've already tried these but did again at your suggestion. I've also tried a bootstrapper repair.

Still the only way I can access the panel is by disabling SSO.

Thanks though, any other suggestions would be appreciated!


mouse Jerry - NP, Let me know if you find anything else, this is driving me nuts!

I'm afraid in this case need to manually clean and repair SSO. There are logs and command outputs required to understand what's happens with SSO. These outputs are not for shared forum.
You may ask for help Parallels Support.
