• Please be aware: Kaspersky Anti-Virus has been deprecated
    With the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.64, "Kaspersky Anti-Virus for Servers" will be automatically removed from the servers it is installed on. We recommend that you migrate to Sophos Anti-Virus for Servers.
  • The Horde webmail has been deprecated. Its complete removal is scheduled for April 2025. For details and recommended actions, see the Feature and Deprecation Plan.
  • We’re working on enhancing the Monitoring feature in Plesk, and we could really use your expertise! If you’re open to sharing your experiences with server and website monitoring or providing feedback, we’d love to have a one-hour online meeting with you.

Problems with Backup to FTP repository

Fritz MichaelG

Basic Pleskian
I have tried to use the option to store scheduled backups in a remote FTP repository. This is scheduled to run every month... and every month it is killing the server.

  • The Backup itself runs fine. The archive is created and then uploaded to the remote FTP repository.
  • This takes a long time however, since the internet connection of the remote FTP server is not that fast.
  • After the upload is finished, the Backup Task never goes away
    • Under Tools & Settings > Backup Manager > Current Backup Task the task is still there and stays at 100%. It never goes away
    • When I reboot the server, Plesk will notify that the backup task has failed (even though it was finished) and start all over again.
    • This will go on and on and never stop. Sometimes, due to maintenance, I may have to reboot again, and then it will start another backup process and slow the server down.

Currently, it runs the backup again. How can I completely cancel the procedure? Last time I messed around and killed all relevant processes and somehow Plesk never started another backup again. But theres must be a better way?
