Plesk 12.x / Linux :: Failed To Retrieve Directory Listing
Sep 6, 2014
Initially I was able to connect via FTP. Then all of a sudden I started getting 550 SSL/TLS required on the control channel. Why did it suddenly required SSL/TLS when I did not do anything extra?
Now when I'm trying to connect via FTPES using FileZilla (tried both active and passive) on Linux Mint Debian, I'm getting the error below. I'm really stumped. I have tried to Allow incoming from all on port 49152-65534/tcp via Plesk firewall, but still no go.
The worst thing now is, I can't even get FTP to work anymore. Of course I would prefer to have TLS working.
Status:Connection established, waiting for welcome message...

I enabled plesk firewall to my ip now I cant seem retrieve directory listing. I've done the same with ssh that works fine.

Today I try to fit all FW rules to my need. After i blocked the traffic "allow other incoming traffic" in the Plesk FW i dont get folders listed via FTP. The FTP client connect to my server, but listing content times out. After allow other traffic the content get listed. The rule "Allow FTP connections" ist in all enabled all the time.
I've just made a transition from a VDS to a Dedicated and I'm having problems preventing directory contents from showing. In my previous server whenever I created a directory, it would automatically give a 403 when you tried to access the directory directly in your browser (which is what I want). Now when I set up directories in this new dedicated the contents of the directories display when there is either no index page or if I didn't have an htaccess file preventing it from listing the contents.
So what im asking is how did my previous server automatically set up the directories to not display the contents but use the contents and allow access to say for example pictures in the directory?
Is there a way I can have apache automatically do this for me or do I have to place a blank index page in every directory i create or have to place an htaccess file in every directory I create? How can I protect the contents with a 403 but still allow the contents to be accessed only through full path?
May be this is a stupid question, but I really don't know why I can't list the files in the root folder of a website(I didn't put any index.html or index.php in the folder).
I point my domain.com to /home/user/docs, the server can list domain.com/test/ files. But it can't list the files of domain.com/. It just shows the page at /var/www/htm, if I don't have any index file under /home/user/docs.
I have this in the httpd.conf file:
<Directory "/home/user/docs"> Options +Indexes allow from all </Directory>
The Plesk panel indicates that the Spam folder can be retrieved using an email client. We are using Outlook 2013 and can not figure out a way to make this happen. We can see the Spam folder using Webmail, but the contents never shows up in Outlook...
I've been plagued by CBL listing for quite some time now, on a linux server with Plesk 12.After months of a fierce fight against every possible malware on the about 120 various websites on this server, extensively monitoring clients emails, enabling restrictive policies and finally even hiring a private security firm to investigate the problems further, we were sure that not a single spam message was sent by our server in any way.
So we finally contacted CBL, exposed the issue and got this answer:The CBL attempts to detect compromised machines in a number of ways based upon the email that the CBL's mail servers receive.During this it tries distinguish whether the connections represent real mail servers by ensuring that each connection is claiming a plausible machine name for itself (via SMTP HELO), and not listing any IP that corresponds to a real mail server (or several mail servers if the IP address is a NAT firewall with multiple mail servers behind it). 54.194.XX.XXX was found to be using several different EHLO/HELO names during multiple connections on or about:
The names seen included: xxx1.xx, xxx2.xx, xxx3.xx, xxx4.xx, xx.xxx5.xx, veniceberg.com..Note that the above list may include one or more names that are not fully qualified DNS names (FQDNs). Host names (ie: Windows node names) without a dot are not FQDNs.
The final possibility is that 54.194.XX.XXX is not a NAT firewall, and is instead a single box with many domains provisioned on it, some that send email directly, setting the HELO as the sending domain. If this is the case, to prevent a relisting we strongly recommend setting the mail software on the box so that a single identifying name is used in outbound SMTP connections mail software on the box so that a single identifying name is used in outbound SMTP connections. As an alternate workaround, you can configure the mail software to relay its outbound email through an intermediate mail server. Even a co-resident mail server package (such as IIS on Windows) will do fine.
This pointed me to this Plesk Mail setting (not sure if this selection is the default). Now we are waiting a few days to see if changing to "Send from domain IP addresses" solves the issue. I think this is a kind of issue which deserves attention by Parallels to avoid other users go trough our fatiguing ordeals. If this setting is responsible for getting servers blacklisted, it should be highly discouraged.
I have this big problem, when I try to create a new signature, it returns me this error (ProtDir_IIS :: update () failed: Add Protected Directory failed: columns SiteId, path are not unique (Error code 1)).
I have a public website, unfortunately, I believed it was being hacked and now the page only display:Directory listing Denied. This Virtual Directory does not allow to be listed..
How could I solve it?My website just consists of one phpbb forum and some html files.
I just started using plesk for my blogs and websites, so testing and finding my way around i notice every site i add instead of having its own folder just like in cpanel(shared hosting) the sites are been added under the primary domain.
How to connect nginx to work with directory web_users for some virtual host?
This directory contains two accounts (user1, user2) with a large amount of static content (files .jpg), the downloaded web users themselves. At the moment they are processed by Apache, which causes an additional load on the server.
In hosting configuration for virtual host "domain.tld" set:
document root: httpdocs. (That is, the "httpdocs" and "web_users" directories are on the same level).
In the web server configuration settings (in additional nginx directives) i can't use the directive "server" (refuses to save), where you can specify the location of the additional "document root" for nginx.
I normally protect a given directory in the Plesk Contral Panel with a Username / Password. I would like to bypass the username and password for visitors from one IP.
would do the trick, but no go, nginx isnt passing it to apache by the looks of it. I tried all kinds of possible solutions but cant get it to work. It works with files though. The logfile says directory index of "/var/www/vhosts/testdomain.eu/httpdocs/wp-admin/" is forbidden. This makes sense, since its turned off.
My /var/www/vhosts/system directory was accidentally deleted. The actual vhost directories are unharmed, e.g. /var/www/vhosts/example.com. Is there a non-destructive script I can run to re-initialize the system directory? I am on Plesk 11.5.30.
There is a directory say, "Master" and inside, "Master" there is sub-directory, "Slave". A user who has access to, "Master" should be able to access, "Slave" automatically. However, a user who has access to, "Slave" should not have access to, "Master". Inside cPanel this type of protection is not possible.
I'm migrating sites from Plesk 9 to Plesk 12 using the migration manager. Since the migration manager doesn't migrate backups, are the backups compatible between Plesk 9 and Plesk 12? If so, is there an easy way to copy the backups in the correct directory structure since we are forced to use clients in plesk 12 and it changes the directory structure of the backups folders.
i'm running the latest version of Plesk 11 on a Ubuntu 12.04 system.
We have a customer with a domain and this customer added other domains to his account.
now, 2 domains are not working, he created the as usual, Plesk created the directories under /vhosts/domain.com/domain1.com and the vhosts.conf are also correct.
when i'm opening the domain in the browser, i get the following error message:
The requested URL /var/www/vhosts/domain.com/index.php was not found on this server.
Which protocol I should use for performing a backup of important server files and folders. I do make a snapshot but i found that's not enough.
My Centos 6.6 has ProFTPD configuration setup only for webhosts so no root access. I came across SCP, but don't know how to secure that like a Pro. I have also heard about SSHFS for linux.
