Resolved Unable to update Plesk Obsidian 18.0.18 to 18.0.19 (RTM)

LarsK

New Pleskian
I am currently running RC4, while using the autoinstaller to update to the RTM release I get the following error:

I can't, our license was supplied by TransIP. I contacted them but it's pretty useless that i have to contact them and they just pass on the question to Plesk support.
Is there any way that I could contact plesk support directly?
 
i've same problem, i don't know how can i do this
I have the same problem here, can't update to 18.0.19/.1 this is strange

Hello,

The issue was not reproduced in the test environment. The update was finished without any issues.

For further investigation SSH access to the server is required.

To provide us with server access you may use Support SSH Access extension:
How to provide Plesk Support Team with the SSH access to the server?

Looking forward to your reply.

I just got a reply from my service provider (TransIP). They contacted Plesk support for me. Plesk support can't replicate out problem on their test systems so they need SSH access to my server, which is a problem for me.

Is one of you able to contact Plesk support and give them SSH access to one of your servers?

I recommend contacting our support Plesk Help Center
Are you able to relay this issue to support for me, as I have trouble contacting Plesk support directly.
As 2 people also have the same problem this doesn't seem to be an isolated case.

Hi, @LarsK

Are you able to relay this issue to support for me, as I have trouble contacting Plesk support directly.

Please try the steps provided by IgorG.

I'm from the Plesk engineering team, and I personally can't replicate the issue about w/o non-available update on Plesk Obsidian preview servers. I successfully updated a couple of my own. The logic for Plesk Obsidian preview servers is the following:
- All of them have 'Early Adopters' tier by default. It means they should see a new release w/o delays.
- Plesk server checks new updates on a daily basis. Here could be a delay up to 24 hours (but usually fewer). To trigger this, you can manually run in SSH 'plesk daily'.
- Also you can try # plesk installer --all-versions

All these conditions should be enough to update to the RTM build.

I can assume that in your case we could have issues with repository mirrors - they need some time to replicate changes from Plesk official repository.

Running plesk daily gives me the following errors:

Code:

Running "plesk installer --all-versions" to install 18.0.19 is what got me the error in the first place. It seems that i get past the previous error, but now i got this one:

What is do notice is that the first time I ran it it said that there is 1 package required for the product to function properly. After the yum update is says:

Please create your own thread instead of hijacking mine, i do not have the same problem and i do not have an answer for you.

Regarding to my issue, still not fixed.
 
@LarsK,

I contacted them but it's pretty useless that i have to contact them and they just pass on the question to Plesk support.
I still recommend using this way, as we can't fix the issue based on logs. We need access to the server to define what could be wrong with packages dependencies and how to fix it permanently, not just fix symptoms.
