upgrade fails often with severe issues.
My server had issues and it took me 3 days to solve it.
Plesk gives only paid support and not wanting to pay them more then the license I just bought 2 months ago I read the forum threads and found a work around that finally worked.
If you are considering to upgrade - please check out their forums for issues first as it's very common to have them...
I have got some old plesk boxes that i am trying to migrate to a new box running 8.4 the old versions are 5.0.4 and 5.0.5.
I have managed to export everything from the 5.0.5 box but i cannot do it from the 5.0.4 box.
I have searched all day long for how you can upgrade from 5.0.4 to 5.0.5.
All I got from the rather helpful folks at Plesk (or what ever they call themselves these days) is that i need to upgrade to 7.5.
Does anyone here familiar with Plesk?
Just wondering is it worth it to upgrade from 7.5.6 to 8.1 and if it is easy to do?
Also, with the lease license, do you get the sitebuilder and antispam for free?
Using Red Hat EL4 with Apache 2
Is there any way to setup the server to ignore case-sensitivity? For example:
[url] is the same as
[url] or
[url]
Regardless of what is upper or lower case that it goes to the same directory.
Got a question about cases fans but know someone will have a laugh at me about this.
We have recently moved from 1u supermicro cases to matx cases to lower the general server cost. We realised that we wouldnt fill 2/3 of a rack if we used 1u (16 amps power would be hit) and it was just logical to use matx.
One worry is the heat factor so was looking at some powerful fans. The one place I know where to get them from is our dyanatron supplier but I am left very confused. You always see on fans they use 0.3amp/12v (for example) but how much does that work out to be at the final power usage? this goes for the same in watts. Are fans something you have to worry about in the long run or do they make a non exsiting dent into a racks amp usage?
I figured this would be the place to ask this question as the parts Im using are ex-server :-))..
Basically, I've purchased an old dual xeon board with matching xeons and I'm after a case. However the motherboard is EATX, and dosent seem to fit any of my ATX cases.
So, what case should I go for? Im trying to make it a cheap as possible.. Also I live in the UK.
I saw, this case. I figured for that price I cant go wrong. But will it fit an EATX?
I have a Plesk host that I am tasked with upgrading. It started with openSUSE 11.4 on Plesk 10.4 and I have upgraded it all the way to openSUSE 12.2 on Plesk 11.09 (fixed minor issues with pop3d and mysql locking on the way). The next upgrade was supposed to be 11.5, but the option to upgrade it never shows up. I have re-instated our support license so I know the license is OK, and also checked that 11.5 supports openSUSE 12.2. The update log doesn't really tell me much either:
Code:

I'm planning on replacing my current celery server with Core 2 Duo using PDSMI+ board. My colo contract is for a 1U, so I need a 1U case. I'm looking for a cheap 4 SATA hotswap case for it.
Anyone know of any other case that fits the requirement and is cheaper than the SC813MT-300C chassis? (looks like going price for this case is just over $250.)

Over the weekend, I upgraded from Plesk 10.3 to Plesk 11.5, using the updater in the control panel. Everything seemed to go well. However, this morning I've noticed that some, not all, email accounts are having trouble logging into the server to send and receive mail. Other accounts are working fine.Via POP, I get this error: -ERR Temporary problem, please try again later
Via SMTP, I get this error:
535 auth failure
I see this in the maillog:
Jun 17 07:15:05 [server] courier-pop3d: LOGIN FAILED, user=[username], ip=[::ffff:xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx]
Jun 17 07:15:05 [server] courier-pop3d: authentication error: Input/output error
And this... Jun 17 07:24:50 [server] smtp_auth: FAILED: [email address] - password incorrect from [host] [xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx]
I replaced the server name, username, host, and IP in the above.
Here are the steps I've tried so far.
- Changing the password using the control panel.
- Updating the number of daemons in authdaemonrc
- Restarting the services
I just upgraded my Plesk on Ubuntu (vServer) yesterday. But after the upgrade I couldn't login to the Panel anymore because all I get when I try to reach the panel (https://panel.examplesite.com:8443) is a white screen.
I rebooted the server and restarted the panel as well as Apache several times with no change.

I have a VPS on Webfusion which auto upgraded last night to Plesk 11.5.30 #45. However, I used to have the domain registrar, 123-reg manage my DNS & now since the upgrade I've lost access to all emails & ftp access but the domains still work ok.
whether I should delete all DNS records at 123-reg & point to my VPS now? The DNS parameters in Plesk appear to be different to 123-reg. I
connected to my other question regarding hMailserver and Plesk 11.5 for Windows I still need to transfer/upgrade two other servers to Plesk 11.5 - and these two are using hMailserver. During the upgrade to Plesk 11.5.x hMailserver is kicked out and Mail Enable SE is installed (and luckily configured). The users will have their old mails stored with hMailserver and a "blank" new mailbox with Mail Enable. Somehow I need to transfer or migrate these mails from hMailserver to Mail Enable.
My solution last time was "easy but annoying": I set new passwords for all mailboxes and used IMAPcopy to copy all messages, one by one. This took like forever!There was just no other solution as I already upgraded my installation. As of now, the "Upgrade Notes" published by Parallels suggest to "upgrade by migrate". How to do this, without IMAPcopy and all this trouble? Maybe if I get a backup of the mails and restore this backup? Is there a way to only backup the mails instead of the whole configuration and stuff?
During downloading the files for the upgrade, it is hanging at downloading the following file:
plesk.msi
When I look at the C:ParallelsInstallerparallelsPANEL-WIN_11.0.9dist-msi-Microsoft-2003-i386 I see that the file is .tmp and cannot be deleted.
I do not know how to stop the upgrade, delete the .tmp file and download the files again.
I have a 6RU rackmount server cabinet, which I am putting a 1RU server inside.
I am wanting to put some fans in the metal cabinet, to bring in cool air, and let out warm air.
Does anyone know where you can find these sorts of fans?
Because the server inside the rack cabinet is closed, I can't use a fan with a Molex connector.
I haven't seen any case fans that use a usb connector, or just a normal power outlet connector.
does anyone know what desktop motherboard can it fit? prefer AMD desktop motherboard.
View 14 Replies View RelatedI'm reeling right now after my shared hosting has been down for more than 24 hours (and this isn't one of the super-cheapies, it's in the $20-$30/month range)
In the future I'd really like to be protected against this kind of outage... I know downtime is inevitable with any host, so I'm wondering if it's possible to have some kind of failover system. Maybe I could get a second account with a bargain basement host (<$10/month) and keep it relatively up to date with a mirror of my site. But I don't know how I could manage the DNS so it went to the second host in the even of a failure on the first....
Does this kind of redundancy exist as some product in the industry that I don't know about (is that what "colocation" is?)? Is it likely that my host has the ability/willingness to redirect my domain (302 or something) in times of trouble like this?
I am moving one of my site from windows to centOS hosting. The problem is that the new server is case sensitive for folders and file names. I had all my folders in capital letters previously and also all my links inside pages(www.domain.com/FOLDER/Page-Name.php).

What is the worst case scenario that one can face if they switched all the sudden from mysql 4.1 to mysql 5 ? Are both similar to each other? Anyone have experiences to share maybe as to what happened when you switched from 4.1 to 5?
I am kinda worried as to breaking up sites and wrecking havoc (i got bunch of wordpress blogs, vb forums, smf forum and phbb too)
Also what can one expect if moving from say 4.1 based hosting to version 5 based hosting ? Say if someone has backup from 4.1 version and they try to restore it on a host with 5?

Following the update from 11 to Plesk 12 (and installing latest Ubuntu fixes), the Plesk panel access is broken. Welcome page says:Can not load key: key is empty.And of course, no way to login the mgt interface. All services appear up, so this is only affecting the panel web service.
Fishing out the panel.log, it appears to be at a lower level than I initially thought (see below): experiencing issues after updating from 11 to 12 on Ubuntu (12)?
