Dear Pleskians! The Plesk Forum will be undergoing scheduled maintenance on Monday, 7th of July, at 9:00 AM UTC. The expected maintenance window is 2 hours.
Thank you in advance for your patience and understanding on the matter.
You can do an upgrade in a safe way by restoring 6.5 backup on the fresh install of Plesk 7. In-place upgrade is being tested right now - please note that we have to test every 6.5 minor version, plus combinations of initial version and subsequent 6.5 patches.
We just want to be cautious with potentially destructive in-place upgrade. 6.5.2 -> 7.0 is probably the easiest upgrade, but I would still recommend you to wait until we finish testing and release the final upgrade utility to the public.
It really depends on what we will find during testing. So far we did not find a lot of bugs, but to me it means that we are not trying hard enough.
If anyone is willing to help us with testing of the migration utility in your environment (not on production systems please), let us know at [email protected]

Originally posted by dwdietz Is there docs and doing a correct backup on the 6.5 system ? I would like to be sure i am doing it correctly before proceeding.
Please be patient. As soon as good build will be created, we'll send utility to you. We have found some problems with migration tools. Two or three systems was migrated successfully. One was failed. We manually fix it and continue to work on migration tool. I don't think that it will be better to break something working than wait some more days.
Thank you for assistance.
Just to confirm your instructions:-
1. Install backup utility on current Pleask 6.5.2 Installation
2. Back up all domains/websites to psa file
3. Uninstall Plesk 6.5.2
4. Install Plesk 7
5. Restore Configurations from PSA file
Please wait some days. Migration utility is quite stable now. We are performing last cycle of tests before release it.
Everyone who have some test configurations (not production servers) and wants to test migrator on it, you are welcome to send email to address published by jaytee: [email protected]
On our test platforms it was correct procedure. But some our customers have found problems with webmail settings and some specific donains configurations. Most of problems were corrected manually, e.g. executing "websrvmng --reconfigure-all", "mchk" and other utilities but some problems were more difficult and required some analisys. Finally, all were corrected but it took some time.
