• 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.

Restore domain from 7.5 to 8.0.1

I tried to restore a domain backup file from our company's old server (Plesk 7.5) to our new Virtual Dedicated Server (Plesk 8.0.1). The backup file uploaded successfully but the system doesn't recognise this as a backup file so I cannot restore it. Is it possible to transfer our domains from the old server using that way (Backup/Restore between two Plesk systems) ? It is very important for us to speed up the transfer, so we'd like to avoid the manually transfer (ftp, databases, mail settings etc).

Any Suggestions?
 
The 7.5.4 backup will not restore on an 8.0.x system. You could try to update the old server to 8.0.1 and then use the PMM to migrate everything to the new server. If you contact Plesk they will give you a temporary key to make this happen.
 
Migration is your best bet. Worked like a charm for me. If you don't want to go the PMM route you can extract from the backup file itself but it's not easy to do so as the files are not stored in an easy to access format.
