• 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.

Resolved Webmailer doesn't work anymore after having it disabled temporarily

I have migrated my plesk server to a new host and after everything was up and running, I checked the horde webmailer for my domains.
The webmailers did work well.
On the Tools & Settings - Webmail Services it says:
"If you need to hide a webmail service temporarily, disable it using the button below."
Unluckily, I did try it and disabled Horde but after re-enabling it, the webmailer page doesn't open anymore.
Instead, I get a default page as attached.
Mail - Mail Settings show that the Mail Service and Horde Webmail is enabled for all my 2 domains.
The DNS record for webmail.[myDomain] show a proper setup.
How can I get the webmailer working again?

Additional Info:
I already did a server reboot and I temporarily set the Webmailer to NONE in Mail - Mail Settings for my domains but nothing of it solved the problem.
 
It needs at least the server restart interval set in Tools & Settings > Apache. Instead, you can restart Nginx and Apache manually, e.g.
Code:
# apachectl -t
# systemctl reload apache2
# nginx -t
# systemctl reload nginx
If this does not help, try to examine the configuration files in /var/www/vhosts/system/<domain name>/conf whether the webmail subdomain is configured in them. If not, reconfigure the web server configuration files.
 
Thanks for the quick reply.
# apachectl -t
Syntax OK
# systemctl reload apache2.service
# nginx -t
nginx: the configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf syntax is ok
nginx: configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf test is successful
# systemctl reload nginx

# find /var/www/vhosts/system/*/conf | grep -i -e horde -e webmail

no output from the last command.
Does Horde possibly require a special PHP Version?
Maybe it helps if I uninstall/re-install the webmail module?
 
I found the solution
Although Mail - Mail Settings did show the Mail Service as ON (see image), I clicked the Activate/Deactivate Services Button and set Mail Service and Webmail to enabled.
Now it works again.
To me, this seems to be a bug in the Plesk GUI.
