My server with Plesk 11 died a few days ago. I now have a new server with Plesk 12.
I have the entire /var folder copied up from the old server.
How do I restore emails to the new server? Can I simply copy /var/qmail/mailnames/domain.name from the backed up /var folder into the corresponding folder on the new server?
Webmail using, in the "Inbox" I chose all the mail and accidentally pressed the "clear folder" letters deleted or i am can be restored? I need to return the letter....
I have some issues access my files through FTP. I created a new FTP user, that match the domain name, so it is easy for me to terminate access if i choose to delete the domain.
I can only access / see files that i uploaded with that specific FTP user. If i install a plugin inside Wordpress, i can not access those files via FTP.
If i login via SSH, with the root user, i can see all files.
I have tried to add the FTP user to the psacln group, but no luck.
I want to be able to copy 1000's of files from one subscription to another or rather from one domain to another on the server without having to FTP them each time. Is there a way which this can be done directly in Plesk and avoid the need to ftp the same 1000's of files into each subscription ? FTPing on my connection is really slow and takes 2-3 for each subscription / domain, whereas if I could just FTP to the server once and then copy&paste the files between subscriptions then this would save me a huge amount of time...
After restore (without any errors) some of my files are missing from one particular domain. The files are present in the backup however, they just don't restore. In this case it is a Wordpress installation and the complete wp-content folder did not restore one one of the domains.
I'm trying to get something simple to work in Plesk. I just want to use Apache for PHP files with Fast-CGI and PHP 5.6. Everything works fine with Nginx and PHP-FPM but because of the restrictions, that Nginx can only use a systemwide PHP version, which is 5.3.3 in my case, I need Apache for that.
So the problem is that I get the .php files as download and Apache doesn't parse them.
A little background information: Cent OS 6.6 Plesk 12.0.18 Update #49 PHP Versions 5.3.3 and 5.6.9 PHP Handles installed with this KB [URL] ....:
the problem is very big since backup procedure not backup all files and folder. I have a lot of Wordpress installations (some of that made with App Installer and others made by hand).
Into all the above installations, files and folder created by Wordpress, like plugin installed or image, uploaded are not backup!
I have seen that all this files come with www-data:www-data user and group but with read permissions for owner, group and others, so i not able to understand why they are not inside my backups. If i change user and group all works fine.
Check your Wordpress backup and verify the presence of plugin and images (miniature of images are still present since they are created with different user and group)...
I have a problem with file upload. I changed php.ini files in /etc/php5/cgi and user and php.ini to work with big files. I changed accordingly max_filesize, post_max_size, memory_limit.Also changed suhosin memory_limit and some other stuffs. I cant get files bigger than ~100MB to be sent through forms with post! Below is ok.Is there any method to do this with plesk 11.5?? I saw docs on this particular topics with plesk 10 on internet but nothing for plesk 11.
In Plesk 11.5 I set log rotation to once a day and to keep 365 files. But I can only find 13 files (only one access_log) in /var/www/vhosts/mydomain/log. But Plesk tells me that 100 GB are used for the logs (the 13 files only have about 3 GB). Where are the files? In previous versions (before 11.5) I always had the files (named .1, .2 etc) in the same log directory.
I am trying to restore a backup that Parallels Plesk made (latest version) and I used to get the option at some point to replace everything. Now, I only get the options to select what I want to restore and it fails because it says certain things, domains, content is already there.
I can't find the option anymore that allows me to say replace everything during the backup. Was that removed? If so, I'd really....really like it back.

I'm missing files that the existing crontab requires. There are results on Google for it, but since the parallels' forum upgrade, all the Google links are dead...
The missing crons in question are:

I followed the following KB to allow country to be identified via GeoIP in AWStats: [URL] .... It works well on one of my domain, but I had to disable first the stats through PLESK Admin, then to reactivate it, so it would regenerate the conf file in /usr/local/psa/etc/awstats/* for a particulair domain. I then followed this KB to re-calculate all stats with country identification: [URL] .... It works as well.
But now: How can I regenerate all the conf file in /usr/local/psa/etc/awstats/* ? Is there any magic command?
I want to put custom values in /etc/postfix/main.cf, but I'm afraid plesk would overwrite them during upgrade. How can I safely add custom values to main.cf and preserve them duing plesk updates?
I currently run the PMM tool, it migrates and created all the domains for me, but I have a new problem. Some clients does not have their files only at public_html, they use the root at their cpanel accounts, I notice that the PMM did not migrated the files from the root.... Is there any option to it be done?
The "/etc/php.ini" file seems reasonable and the session file path seems correct: session.save_path = "/var/lib/php/session"
But the session files never get deleted automatically. The session folder fills up quickly and I have been deleting session files manually while trying to resolve the problem. How can I verify that the default Plesk cron jobs are set up and running properly?
I have a concern during the installation of PrestaShop. I created a subdomain through Plesk, put my files on my server via FTP. During installation of PrestaShop, I have a problem:
Recursive write permissions for the Apache user on the ~ / config /
My user is "NOWIS" and my group is "psacln" ....
I think the user "NOWIS" has no rights as "Apache" ....
I'm running plesk 11.5.30 and I'm having an issue with the new word doc format (.docx) being recognized as a zip file. I've read several posts that explain what mime types to add, and I've found the spot where I need to enter them. The part I'm not sure about is whether the custom mime types field is an addition to the current mime types or a replacement list. Does that field just needs the new mime types or a full list?
I cannot seem to find a conclusive answer to this. I use subdomains to create client websites then once they are in their own domains the subdomains still remain. Can I delete only the subdomain and leave all the files or at least leave the database since it is still connected to the new domain. Example below.
subdomain.example.com uses database1
newsite.com still uses database1
Is there a way to copy the database into the new domain?
When i do full backup and download this backup, plesk create a temporary file inside directory /usr/local/psa/tmp but after download finish this file is not deleted, and this is causing problem because i have a server with small disk space.
I was running on a Ubuntu 10.04 LTS VPS and had this error too, then yesterday imported the domain from the old VPS to our new Plesk Server (Ubuntu 12.04.3 LTS) and I still get this error on this one domain.
This is the error in question...

When you delete a site backup from its "Backup Manager" Panel, it is removed and no longer displayed in the Panel. However, I cannot tell if this action actually does anything with the real site backup files in "/var/lib/psa/dumps". Does this action merely remove it from PSA's database but not touch any actual files? If this is true, then how are site backup files supposed to be managed if this action doesn't actually delete them?
I have the following problem, the files and folders generated by PHP are hidden in FTP.
I can see in the Plesk file manager that users, permissions and groups are the same for all files and folders (those that can be seen and those that cannot be seen from FTP).
All the options in the server are set by default. It is a new installation of Plesk 12.0.18 #4 in CentOS 6.5 (Final).
Domain has PHP Settings in Plesk set to 2G and I get this error when uploading a 48MB file using Wordpress. I assume I need ot modify this manually in conf file somewhere to allow uploading large files?
Requested content-length of 48443338 is larger than the configured limit of 10240000..
mod_fcgid: error reading data, FastCGI server closed connection...
A second problem, also qmail is that I can't send to the server using TLS on the submission port, only if I do plain text. But the first problem is bigger because we can't send at all.
This is a new plesk installation and it has never worked.
