• Halloween is coming! To celebrate the occasion, we dusted off a couple of old skins, and even created a brand new one (Pixel).
    To get into the festive spirit, install the Skins extension.
  • The new Python extension is now available. It allows customers to deploy and manage WSGI-based Python applications on their websites directly from Plesk.
  • The Plesk Mobile apps for iOS and Android and the Plesk Mobile Center extension have been deprecated, and are no longer available for new installations. In Plesk Obsidian 18.0.84, the Plesk Mobile Center extension will be removed from servers during the upgrade, and the Plesk Mobile apps will lose their server management features.
  • The Social Login extension has been deprecated and will be removed in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.84. After that, it will no longer be possible to log in to Plesk with a Google, Facebook, GitHub account, or with a passkey. Plesk usernames and passwords, as well as logging in with a WebPros Account, are not affected.

Upgrading from v8.6 to v9.2 / v9.3

Hi,

I have a virtual private server with Plesk Control Panel v8.6 running on a Microsoft Windows Server 2003 machine.

1. Is there a cost to upgrade to the latest version?

2. What is the procedure by which to do so?

Thanks,

Sarah.
 
I might as well answer my own question for prosterity sake.

The answer is that upgrades are free.

1. Go to downloads.
2. Download the 1.2 MByte download.
3. Upload to the server.
4. Execute on the server like any other Windows executable.
5. Done.

As a side comment, the product needs a v10.0 that gives functionality like other control panels that I have used, namely custom error pages that can reside anywhere and process PHP; better handling of https and http and where they reside; a better email client; and more of IIS exposed.

What is not free is support.

Back on topic. I went through the upgrade and I am now at 9.3 from 8.6 with no issues.
