• Debian 11 is approaching its end-of-life (vendor EOL date - August 31, 2026). Plesk Obsidian 18.0.80 will be 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.

Issue SSH / Git Auth failure

Simon Jones

New Pleskian
Hi,

Hoping for a few pointers really. I have a VPS, was installed at Deb 8 and upgraded to 9 (with Plesk already installed), I think Plesk is ok as i ran the repair and nothing comes back as failed.

I've gone to try and use git but kept getting authentication fails, so i've made a change to allow SSH logins to try and track down the problem but the only login that works over ssh is the root login.

Am guessing this is a PAM issue but i've never had this before, i've checked /etc/passwd and the shell is set, and /etc/shadow contains a password, all the journal log shows is

Jul 24 21:38:25 vps1 sshd[20838]: pam_unix(sshd:auth): authentication failure; logname= uid=0 euid=0 tty=ssh ruser= rhost=87.75.109.178 user=*********** (starred out by me)

Where do i need to look on this?

Thanks,

Simon
 
As far as I know, dist-upgrade from Debian8 to Debian9 is not supported by Plesk Dist-Upgrade Support
Thus, you do this at your own risk and have to understand that various unpleasant consequences are possible.
