  • The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.
  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

Statistics report errors for mailingslists

MeaC

New Pleskian
When executing "statistics" these errors occur:
# /usr/local/psa/admin/sbin/statistics

WARNING during statistics_collector execution: : statistics_collector: Unable to get dir size of /var/lib/mailman/lists/14
System error 2: No such file or directory
statistics_collector: Unable to get dir size of /var/lib/mailman/archives/private/14.mbox
System error 2: No such file or directory
statistics_collector: Unable to get dir size of /var/lib/mailman/archives/private/14
System error 2: No such file or directory

There seems to be some mismatch between what the directory is expected to be and what it really is:
# ls /var/lib/mailman/archives/private/

mailman
mailman.mbox
test
test.mbox

So, although the mailinglist "test" has the ID "14", its directory is not called "14" but "test" and "test.mbox".

The error is reproducible with:
* create a new mailinglist
* run "/usr/local/psa/admin/sbin/statistics"

OS: Debian 6.0.5

I have exactly the same error.
I can see in /var/log/messages:
Sep 13 00:02:43 host3 statistics: Unable to get dir size of /var/lib/mailman/lists/1
Sep 13 00:02:43 host3 statistics: Unable to get dir size of /var/lib/mailman/archives/private/1.mbox

Sep 13 00:03:31 host3 statistics: Unable to get dir size of /var/lib/mailman/lists/5
Sep 13 00:03:31 host3 statistics: Unable to get dir size of /var/lib/mailman/archives/private/5.mbox
Sep 13 00:03:31 host3 statistics: Unable to get dir size of /var/lib/mailman/archives/private/5
but these numbers(folders) at the end are the ids of the mailing lists.
Those folders do not exist, because plesk creates folders in /var/lib/mailman/lists/ and /var/lib/mailman/archives/private/ using the names of the lists, not their ids.

That causes statistics not to get updated.
 
any update on this issue?

I have Centos 6.4 within plesk 11.0.9 Update #41 and still this issue exists

statistics_collector: Unable to get dir size of /var/lib/mailman/archives/private/6.mbox
System error 2: No such file or directory
statistics_collector: Unable to get dir size of /var/lib/mailman/archives/private/6
System error 2: No such file or directory
 
Any news?
I'm meanwhile at Debian 6.0.7 with Plesk 11.0.9 Update #44 and still have errors:

Yes, we confirm this bug. It is already reported (#133086) and under investigation now.
 
Hey,

can I see somewhere the progress of #133086 - because it still exist and I am on 11.0.9 Update #48
 
This bug has been completely fixed in upcoming Plesk 11.5
