• The new Python extension is now available. It allows customers to deploy and manage WSGI-based Python applications on their websites directly from Plesk.
  • Debian 11 has reached its end-of-life (vendor EOL date - August 31, 2026). Plesk Obsidian 18.0.81 is 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.

Problem starting courier Pop3 server

Kroptokin

Regular Pleskian
When I try to start the server I get:

courier-pop3d: bind: Address already in use

The only thing I may have done recently to change the server was run yum update (CentOS) - and I did not stop any services before doing this. (I read something which suggested that might have been a problem).

So - I'm trying to re-start the courier-pop3 server and not sure how to proceed.

Versions: Plesk 12.5.30 and CentOS 6.7

Thanks.

You can kill the process manually.
For staters list the process IDs running with:
Code:
ps -A | grep "courier"

Once you have it's respective proc IDs then you do
Code:
kill -9 *PID*
 
Thanks abdi

The only one running was courierlogger - killing that didn't enable me to start the courier POP3 server.
