• Debian 11 is approaching its end-of-life (vendor EOL date - August 31, 2026). Plesk Obsidian 18.0.80 will be the last release to support it.
    If you are running Plesk Obsidian on Debian 11, we recommend you upgrade those servers to Debian 12 using our dist-upgrade tool.
  • We plan to deprecate and remove the support for XML RPC protocol versions earlier than 1.6.9.1 in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.82. We strongly recommend that you update all existing integrations using earlier versions of the XML RPC protocol to comply with the version 1.6.9.1 specification.

XML-RPC : Error 15100 : The protocol is not supported by Plesk.

New Pleskian
Hello,

I got a problem with backup on an external FTP server via XML-RPC.
Here's my PHP code.
$curl = $plesk->curlInit($server, $plesk->login, $plesk->password);
$xml_request = '<packet version="' . $plesk->version . '">
<backup-manager>
<set-remote-storage-settings>
<domain-id>' . $domain_id . '</domain-id>
<settings>
<protocol>ftp</protocol>
<host>ftp.test.fr</host>
<port>21</port>
<directory> </directory>
<login>' . $user_ftp . '</login>
<password>' . $pass_ftp . '</password>
<passive-mode>false</passive-mode>
</settings>
</set-remote-storage-settings>
</backup-manager>
</packet>';
$response = $plesk->sendRequest($curl, $xml_request);
$responseXml = $plesk->parseResponse($response);
var_dump($responseXml);

$curl = $plesk->curlInit($server, $plesk->login, $plesk->password);
$xml_request = '<packet version="' . $plesk->version . '">
<backup-manager>
<get-remote-storage-settings>
<domain-id>' . $domain_id . '</domain-id>
<protocol>ftp</protocol>
</get-remote-storage-settings>
</backup-manager>
</packet>';
$response = $plesk->sendRequest($curl, $xml_request);
$responseXml = $plesk->parseResponse($response);
var_dump($responseXml);

echo "Do the backup :";
$curl = $plesk->curlInit($server, $plesk->login, $plesk->password);
$xml_request = '<packet version="' . $plesk->version . '">
<backup-manager>
<backup-domain>
<domain-id>' . $domain_id . '</domain-id>
<remote/>
<description>Via API XML-RPC</description>
<split-size>0</split-size>
<only-hosting/>
<only-configuration />
</backup-domain>
</backup-manager>
</packet>';
$response = $plesk->sendRequest($curl, $xml_request);
$responseXml = $plesk->parseResponse($response);
var_dump($responseXml);

And there's the result ...
object(SimpleXMLElement)[22]
public '@attributes' =>
array
'version' => string '1.6.0.2' (length=7)
public 'backup-manager' =>
object(SimpleXMLElement)[15]

object(SimpleXMLElement)[14]
public 'result' =>
object(SimpleXMLElement)[18]
public 'status' => string 'ok' (length=2)

object(SimpleXMLElement)[20]
public 'login' => string 'mylogin' (length=5)
public 'password' => string 'mypassword' (length=8)
public 'passive-mode' => string 'false' (length=5)

Do the backup :

object(SimpleXMLElement)[21]
public '@attributes' =>
array
'version' => string '1.6.0.2' (length=7)
public 'backup-manager' =>
object(SimpleXMLElement)[19]
public 'backup-domain' =>
object(SimpleXMLElement)[22]
public 'result' =>
object(SimpleXMLElement)[15]
public 'status' => string 'error' (length=5)
public 'errcode' => string '15100' (length=5)
public 'errtext' => string 'The protocol is not supported by Plesk.' (length=40)

Settings seem to be OK ...
Somebody could help me ?
 
I already tried but I got the same problem, same error message ...

If the server doesn't support version, it tells me an error message saying that it doesn't support.

Hello, did you get this issue resolved? I am also getting same error in Backup script. What did you do to solve this thing?


Thank you very much for your support.

It is required to specify the type of the remote protocol for backup manger, in your case it will be "ftp". For example:

<packet version="1.6.3.0">
<backup-manager>
<backup-webspace>
<webspace-name>domain.com</webspace-name>
<remote>ftp</remote> <== protocol type
<prefix>parallels_test</prefix>
<description>Standard weekly backup</description>
<split-size>0</split-size>
<only-configuration/>
</backup-webspace>
</backup-manager>
</packet>
