• Hi, Pleskians! We are running a UX testing of our upcoming product intended for server management and monitoring.
    We would like to invite you to have a call with us and have some fun checking our prototype. The agenda is pretty simple - we bring new design and some scenarios that you need to walk through and succeed. We will be watching and taking insights for further development of the design.
    If you would like to participate, please use this link to book a meeting. We will sent the link to the clickable prototype at the meeting.
  • (Plesk for Windows):
    MySQL Connector/ODBC 3.51, 5.1, and 5.3 are no longer shipped with Plesk because they have reached end of life. MariaDB Connector/ODBC 64-bit 3.2.4 is now used instead.
  • The Horde webmail has been deprecated. Its complete removal is scheduled for April 2025. For details and recommended actions, see the Feature and Deprecation Plan.

Question Watchdog v3 - New service configuration

Hi,

I've followed the following instructions for Watchdog to add new services configuration: Instruction - How to add a new service to the watchdog extension
Nevertheless, since Watchdog v3 upgrade, these new custom services are not being monitored (while still being listed).
I attempted to look at the mysql table within the Plesk database, but the table module_watchdog_service no longer exists.
Would you know where to look at? in which mysql table?
Thanks.
 
The instruction applies to Watchdog 2.x / Monit 2.x. Watchdog 3.x uses Monit 5.x, but new Monit has slightly different conf.file syntax. Previously, Watchdog was a Plesk module and had more internal dependencies with Plesk; it was converted to an extension and now has a slightly different data structure.

For PHP-FPM services, we have a UserVoice request (Manage all the additional Plesk PHP-FPM versions in Watchdog Monitoring extension on modern OSes, systemd makes this work better; it detects a service down event and restarts a service much faster.

Could you please provide more details on what additional services you want to monitor, why it is essential, and why systemd can't do this work? After the release, we are collecting feedback now; feel free to share all your thoughts.
