Plesk 12.x / Linux :: All Sites Down After Any Change Made In Domain
Sep 25, 2014
OS: Centos 6.5
Plesk Version: 12.0.18
Recently, we had trouble with Horde, which I Re-installed. However, since then any change that is made to a domain in plesk (changing mailbox settings, domain settings, hosting settings) All website show the default plesk page and I will have to re-run the reconfigure-all command in SSH to bring them all back up. Sometimes even that won't work and I will have to re-run the bootstrap repair command. We were actually on Plesk 11 when this started happening, so we upgraded to Plesk 12, but unfortunately this did not fix the issue.
We have around 500 customer websites on this server, so obviously the changes are made often and the sites going down on every change isn't great at all.
I have a long list of these errors in my error Plesk error log:
2014/09/25 17:31:53 [error] 818#0: *1566 FastCGI sent in stderr: "Primary script unknown" while reading response header from upstream, client: *.*.*.*, server: , request: "$
But I can't seem to find out if this is the cause, or how to fix this error correctly on a Plesk install.
After changing website domain name (from development one -dev-domain.com- to production one) we have this error in fail2ban.log :
2015-02-01 06:46:41,176 fail2ban.filter [2848]: ERROR Unable to open /var/www/vhosts/system/dev-domain.com/logs/proxy_access_log 2015-02-01 06:46:41,176 fail2ban.filter [2848]: ERROR [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/var/www/vhosts/system/dev-domain.com/logs/proxy_access_log' Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/server/filter.py", line 520, in getFailures has_content = container.open() File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/server/filter.py", line 601, in open self.__handler = open(self.__filename) IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/var/www/vhosts/system/dev-domain.com/logs/proxy_access_log'
Since we switched to Plesk 12 and activated nginx the problem reoccurs reliably on every domain change. As soon as a customer creates a new domain or alias and Apache restarts nginx delivers 502 errors for maybe 10 seconds. After that everything is fine again.
The system is Debian 6.0.10 with Plesk 12.0.18 Update #38
That might not be a problem in small environments, but with >100 domains the timeout is annoying enough for customers to pick up the phone.
Adding this to /etc/sw-cp-server/config did not do the trick.
Is there a way to change the default value of the "Preferred domain" option in the hosting settings of domains in Plesk 11.5? When ever i create a new subscription/domain it just defaults to the value of "domain.ltd" and i have to go into the hosting settings and manually change it to "None". Is there a way i can set it to use the "None" option every time i create new subscriptions or domains?
I wonder if there is any chance to change the domain that is being shown as the incoming/outgoing mail server to users of the Plesk Panel, when clicking on the "Info"-Icon near an e-mail-account in the mail list (see screenshot).
We only have a SSL certificate for one domain and want our customers to use this domain in their mail client settings, so that the client trusts the domain.
I have a client on a dedicated IP, today we needed to downgrade the web hosting plan. As the web hosting plan puts users on a default shared IP, this plan change also changed the dedicated IP to the shared one causing some propagation issues for a small period of time.
I have contacted WHMCS about this asking if they had a way of changing the clients plan but keeping the IP address intact as this could lead to some very undesirable outcomes. They explained that it is not their fault and to contact Parallels.
I know I can change the plan directly in Plesk however by initiating the plan change via WHMCS, everything is automated.
I am running plesk 9.2. I need to move one domain from the shared IP to dedicated IP. How do I do that? My server vendor has already allocated the IP addresses to me and I can see the unused IPs in the Ip address pool. How can I change the ip of suppose; mydomain.com from 1.2.3.4(shared) to 4.5.6.7(dedicated)?
After upgrade plesk 11 to 11.5 there is a new feature in domain hosting settings which is called "Preferred domain"
We can not change the state of Preferred domain. It always remain domain.tld When we try to change it to "none" panel says "Information: The settings were successfully updated."
When we check hosting settings again Preferred domain section is domain.tld . due to that reason we r having lots of diffuculties. Lots web page down due to web.config file has redirection.
I was trying to change "Register Domain Names button URL". URL...But after changing the "Register Domain Names button URL" the CLI file (%plesk_ cli %interface_template.exe) got corrupted somehow and now i get this error "invalid application".Is there a place where i can get a copy of this file ?
Started after last update 12.0.18 Update #44 (on CloudLinux): I can send mail wia created mailboxes, but sites can not send mail, contact forms say "Failed to send your message." maillog file also do not indicate sending any messages from domains. Wordpress restore password claims:
"The e-mail could not be sent. Possible reason: your host may have disabled the mail() function." php.ini is default: safe_mode = Off disable_functions = is empty
The issue about not sending mail from domains was - old versions of LVE anf CageFS are incompatible with latest plesk update, updating them caused all sites in Cagefs to throw error 500 with log string: "SecureLVE jail error Invalid regexps: no match for path to base home directory". It was fixed by changing cagefs.base.home.dirs regexp to the real sites folder location. Enabling cagefs back removed one of the files it shouldn't:
"Removed file /var/cagefs/81/xxx/etc/php.d/soap.ini" So be carefull to place necesssary files back. For now everything works. Click to expand... Click for original message
I just want to remove plesk and installed again. i saw (URL...) this page. use this code but plesk not removed. my sites are gone.how can i get back my site? what i should install.When i try install plesk 12 says you already install version 11.0.9
We have created symlinks, modified some configuration files (Plesk included) and ran domains reconfiguration script (zero domain installed, but just in case the script will do anything else).
After that, we have launched Plesk Migration Wizard (from Plesk 9 to last release).
Everything has worked fine: all domains have been migrated on our new folders (/opt based) and owners has been correctly defined for each domain. The same for MySQL and all mail accounts.
We have checked Apache VirtualHost configured by Plesk Migration Wizard : our new folders are used (/opt).
So all seems to be ok.
But now, all websites (configured with Apache and Apache PHP module) returns 403 Forbidden error.
We have try changing to FastCGI with Apache same error.
We have try changing to full Nginx (PHP and static files), some websites run.
We have checked some KB (112884, 800) but all seems to be good.
Is there any steps we have omitted when we move folders ?
After successfully changing to a fresh created dhparam pem and a reissue of my certificate all was well.
A couple of other things needed to be done so I followed the article: [URL] ....
nginxDomainVirtualHost.php was already present so the only thing I did was adding the ciphers I got from another site (ciphers that also gave me XP and IE8 support etc.)
After executing the httpdmng --reconfigure-all command I instantly got a error message:
I am seeing some some some strange behaviour when password protecting directories served by nginx and PHP-FPM. If I have a site set up so that 'Process PHP by nginx' is selected under ('Websites & Domains>Web Server Settings>nginx settings') and set up password protection ('Websites & Domains>Password-Protected Directories') PHP pages are still served without asking for a password.
If I untick 'Process PHP by nginx' the behaviour returns to normal and an attempt to any access files results in the password request.Is this behaviour by design? If so, it is not made clear when you set up the password protection that it will not apply to PHP pages if you have nginx process the PHP pages.
I am trying to increase the PHP memory limit for all Plesk hosted sites.
I've updated the 'memory_limit' setting in /etc/php.ini
Then I ran
Code: /usr/local/psa/admin/sbin/httpdmng --reconfigure-all /usr/local/psa/admin/sbin/httpdmng --reconfigure-server Checking a phpinfo() page on hosted sites I see that this setting has not been effective.
Checking some /var/www/vhosts/system/domain.com/etc/php.ini also shows the old setting, and I can see that these files have not been updated.
I note that all these domain php.ini files have been modified earlier today, all at the same time, so presumably some process did regenerate them earlier. All these files hae the "DO NOT MODIFY ..." heading
I realise that I can go the the domain in Plesk GUI and save the PHP settings to force an update, but is there anyway to force the regeneration of all of these files via CLI?
When I turn on nginx for the server I am able to browse non SSL protected sites correctly. I receive a 502 Bad Gateway error on any sites that have an SSL certificate. Is there a fix for this? I have been unable to find one.
I have a new DS with Plesk 12. I needed to change the default /var/www/vhosts location to a different physical drive, with more capacity.The larger disk is mounted as /disk1, so I created a folder here called vhosts, moved everything from the existing /var/www/vhosts directory, then I mounted /disk1/vhosts as /var/www/vhosts. See my fstab output below.
I then edited /etc/psa/psa.conf to update the VHOSTS location as per [URL] ...., and restarted Apache, MySQL and reconfigured domains.I thought all was OK, and that Plesk would just see /var/www/vhosts as normal, but I proceeded to migrate domains from another server to this box, and found that whilst some sites were working OK, many were not.
I was finding that existing config directives that used <Directory> were being ignored or seemed to disappear.All sites with .htaccess files stopped workingWe would get Apache / PHP errors saying that files could not be accessed as they were not in the allowed path for the domain. Plesk seems to be logging, reporting, and handling files as if they were in /disk1/vhosts, not the usual location. I have got sites working by adding /var/www/vhosts/ domain and /disk1/vhosts/domain to the PHP Settings page as allowed paths.
I have checked in the httpd.conf for each domain, and they all list the site document root as /disk1/vhosts/domain, not /var/www/vhosts/domain.It's as if Plesk is ignoring the change in /etc/psa/psa.conf.
All I want is for Plesk to think that /var/www/vhosts is the document root for all domains, and not do anything with /disk1/vhosts. I have many sites with hard coded links to included files in /var/www/vhosts/domain, and I dont want to have to rewrite them all to use /disk1/vhosts.
I have had to stick HTTP configuration directives on nearly every site, and add these entries to the allowed paths box, which obviously I should not have to do. Can any Plesk / Linux gurus tell me what I need to do to fix my problem, get sites working in /var/www/vhosts, and have Plesk allow .htaccess files to work without me having to add "AllowOverride All" to every domains??

I have a Plesk 12 server running that works great. But the problem is that whenever one of my shared hosting customers changes something out a domain or subdomain, all the other sites on the server give a 502 error.
The reason why is clear to me: apache is reloading its config while nginx is still active, but sees apache as being down and therefor throws a 502 error.
Is there any way to prevent this from happening? Because it's happening a lot and people are sending in 'site down' reports while there's actually nothing wrong with the server or their site.
I run a centos 6 plesk 12 server with around 7 domains.All runs perfect untill a 3 hours ago. The server was offline.After reboot plesk starts up without a problem but the sites keep offline. While httpd and mysqld and psa runs perfect.Also cannot find error messages in the messages, error_log or anything. How to proceed debugging?
OSCentOS 5.6 (Final) Panel version11.0.9 Update #61 The system is up-to-date; last checked at June 6, 2014 03:32 AM
I use pingdom to alert me when sites go down. It would happen only once every few weeks, and I'd just reboot the VPS from my provider's control panel, however in the last 24 hours it has started doing it more and more often. The only change I have made in this time is to delete a few unused web sites.
When I get alerted, I check the the domains and they won't load. I look at the plesk control panel page thought and that does work.
I can SSH in, but I can't see anything that might work in the messages log.
I removed the plesk control panel error as that only seemed to happen once and is not happening anymore.
I saw quite a few entries in the /var/log/secure log and so I added iptables rules to only allow SSH access from my own IP and to DROP all other requests. It seemed fine for a while, but after 12 hours it has started becoming unresponsive again until reboot.
