• 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.

everytime I create a domain I get this Error: Unable to update hosting preferences: Update FTP user failed: ftpmng --update-user failed: Virtual host default on IP address XX.XX.XX.XXX already exists
When I try to update my ftp or create a new account I get this Error: Unable to update FTP account: Unable update FTP subaccount: ftpmng --update-user failed: Virtual host default on IP address XX.XX.XX.XXX already exists
 
This is what was written in the other thread
Hello,

After a year of downtime, and no help here nor from my host, I finally discovered the solution.

Error messages:
Unable to update FTP subaccount: Unable update FTP subaccount: ftpmng --update-user failed: Virtual host Plesk Managed (.xxx) on IP address xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx already exists
Unable to update hosting preferences: Update FTP user failed: ftpmng --update-user failed: Virtual host Plesk Managed (.xxx) on IP address xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx already exists.

Actual error message of interest:
ftpmng --update-user failed: Virtual host Plesk Managed (.xxx) on IP address xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx already exists.

Explanation of error message:
"Plesk Managed (.xxx)" is the actual name of an FTP site set up in IIS Manager. What Plesk did not like was that the IP address of this site was set to a specific IP, instead of to "(All Unassigned)".

Solution:
Open IIS Manager on the server;
Expand "FTP Sites" folder;
Locate the site named, ("Plesk Managed (.xxx)" in my case);
Right-click it and select Properties;
Change "IP address" from a specific assignment to "(All Unassigned)";
Click "OK" of "Apply".
Done!

Now I noticed I don't haveanything named lesk How would I go about creating it, if I need to?
