• Halloween is coming! To celebrate the occasion, we dusted off a couple of old skins, and even created a brand new one (Pixel).
    To get into the festive spirit, install the Skins extension.
  • The new Python extension is now available. It allows customers to deploy and manage WSGI-based Python applications on their websites directly from Plesk.
  • The Plesk Mobile apps for iOS and Android and the Plesk Mobile Center extension have been deprecated, and are no longer available for new installations. In Plesk Obsidian 18.0.84, the Plesk Mobile Center extension will be removed from servers during the upgrade, and the Plesk Mobile apps will lose their server management features.
  • The Social Login extension has been deprecated and will be removed in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.84. After that, it will no longer be possible to log in to Plesk with a Google, Facebook, GitHub account, or with a passkey. Plesk usernames and passwords, as well as logging in with a WebPros Account, are not affected.

Question Problems adding existing db on db-server to plesk

ThorstenL

New Pleskian
Hello everyone, is it possible to integrate an existing database into Plesk so that it can be managed in Plesk via phpmyadmin. The external database server is set up. If you create a new database via Plesk, it will be created on the external database server. But now I have an existing database on the database server and I cannot add this database to Plesk.

System:

Plesk Obsidian Web Pro Edition
Version 18.0.64

Database server: MariaDB
 
In order to manage a database trough Plesk, the database needs to be create via Plesk. So if you already created an database running on the database server before you added the database server to Plesk you need to delete and re-create the database via Plesk.

EDIT: I stand corrected. See post From Marin with solution to register an existing database in Plesk below.
