Question Question about /usr/local/psa/bin/checkact

[Jeroen Bl]

Hi all,

I just received a Cron error per email about a script: /usr/local/psa/bin/checkact. It caught my attention as the error read:

ERROR: Error: Undefined class constant 'ALLOW_CP_LOGIN' (cu.php:80)

Which raised a red flag for me due to the ALLOW_CP_LOGIN part.

Could someone help me understand what this file does? The code seems harmless enough to ignore it (just some template changes afaik), but the script ends with a comment:

# remove (traces of) this script

*insert darth vader tune*

Any help / soothing comments to just ignore it would be greatly appreciated.

Not sure it's a Plesk file. Check which package it belongs to:

For CentOS:

# rpm -qf /usr/local/psa/bin/checkact

For Debian/Ubuntu:

# dpkg -S /usr/local/psa/bin/checkact

Thanks for your quick reply Igor!

Unfortunately the file doesn't seem to be owned by any package.

I have added a screenshot of the full file, maybe that helps?

I really don't know what is this. But this is definitely not part of the Plesk.

@Jeroen Bl I'm pretty sure that this script has been created by your hosting provider. They seem to ship a pre-installed Plesk version with some customizations.

Can you confirm that you did not install Plesk yourself?

@Monty I have sort of come to the same conclusion when I looked up the creation date of the file which predates the setup date of my server. My provider did indeed pre-install Plesk on the server.

I have sent them a message to get some information on the file, will update here if anything interesting comes up!
