• The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.
  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

Question Why Plesk create "access_ssl_log.webstat" with disabled "web statistics"?

Server operating system version
AlmaLinux 8.10
Plesk version and microupdate number
18.0.65#2
In all domains "Web statistics" is set to disabled. However, the file "access_ssl_log.webstat" for statistics is still created and updated in a few domains. Is there a reason why this file does not exist in some domains, as expected, and then still exists in other domains with current data?

Is this a known bug or have I overlooked a setting?
 
Hello! I've checked in the test environment and even if I removed Webstat and Webalizer the access_ssl_log.webstat is created after execution of the statistics utility command:
Code:
plesk sbin statistics --calculate-one --domain-name=example.com

Log files access_log.stat, access_log.webstat, access_ssl_log.stat, access_ssl_log.webstat are intermediate web statistics log files. Intermediate logs are prepared during daily maintenance task and only after that Web Statistics is calculated by either AWStats or Webalizer based on the intermediate logs and represented by HTML reports.

I did not find known bugs regarding this behavior. However, it looks when web statistics disabled or AWStats/Webalizer removed such files should not be created. I would suggest contact Plesk technical support team to investigate this case further and they create report to Plesk development team if necessary.
