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.

But how can i change other disk?
I want change the default directory for backups in /dev/sdb1 disk.

I'm trying to setting plesk backups to own ftp server.. My ftp server is listening by the port 31..
My conf:

User and password...

Here the error display: "Transport error: unable to list directory: Curl error: Couldn't connect to server"
Where are the bkp ftp logs?
I have a client who will be pointing their domain to my reseller server. I have already setup the account on my server and made the appropriate DNS changes with their domain registrar - so the domain should be pointing to my server soon.
However, what is the normal procedure for migrating email accounts, without loosing mail?
When should they change email account settings?
Should they use their current settings until they get an error, or no longer receive mail, then change settings to match my server?
How is this normally done?
I deleted my /var/log directory to clean up space, and now Exim won't work.
Can anyone please post the directory and subdirectory structure for /var/log on a FreeBSD system? I am hoping that with the right directories, the files will rewrite themselves...
I recently switched from one shared hosting company to another. Both plans included WHM and Cpanel. After gaining access to the new WHM, I created a second domain (the first was established by the hosting company upon startup with a domain name I had just purchased). At that point, both domains showed in WHM; I could access both with Cpanel, and I could properly use SFTP to access the correct /home remote starting directory for each of the two domains.
I had provided my new host with a full Cpanel backup of the second domain (the one I just installed on my new account myself) from my old host. That night the new host restored all files including mysql.
At this point, I can still access the original domain (established by my new host the previous day) just as I did before. However, now I cannot access the restored domain using SFTP ("can't find directory" error message). I have to use FTP. Also, I can't acccess the proper starting directory. My FTP agents (I've used two) go immediately to /public_html, nor can I go up even one level. This means that I've lost the ability to access two higher directory levels in the ususal /home/mydomain/public_html directory structure.
I've used various starting remote directories within my third party FTP agents to no avail.
Support is courteous, but stumped. They indicate that the directory structure looks fine from its end. Indeed, if I use Cpanel file management for the problematic domain, I too can see and access /home/mydomain-name, something I can't do using third party agents.
I am concerned that security may be problematic with this situation. Even though I can access the suspect domain using Cpanel and see its front end with a browser, I wonder whether there might be issues down the road.
I have a shared hosting account. VPS or dedicated is not an option.
I use CPanel.
For example, www .maindomain. com is the primary domain associated with the hosing account.
When adding subdomains or addon domains, a new directory is created in the public_html directory of my hosting account.
These new directories hold all the files for the sub domains and addon domains.
My problem is that the directory that holds the subdomain or addon domain CAN BE accessed from:
[url]
or
www .maindomain. com/addon_domain_directory/
thus,
www .addon_domain. com can be accessed from it's own URL as well as
www .maindomain. com/addon_domain_directory/
Is there a solution that DOES NOT allow this to happen?
If my main domain could have it's own directory under public_html, that would be great, but I do not know if this is possible.
A directory structure like this:
-public_html
-maindomain
-subdomain
-addon domain
I just purchased a new VPS. I don't really like how lxAdmin lays out directories. I am not sure if what I want to do is possible, but I'll ask anyways:
/home/ /northwinddesign/ /client1/ /client2/ /client3/ /lib/
This way, when I log in with ftp, I see folders for my site (northwinddesign), all of my clients site (accessible with one click) and my codebase library. Ideally I would like the client1, etc. directories to be the webroots for their domains.
However, I'm not sure whether lxAdmin can still manage a directory like that. I'm pretty good with the command line, but I have several clients who want a control panel to see bandwidth, stats, and stuff.
I have the following command to execute every 5 minutes this PHP file which is working correctly:
/usr/bin/wget -qq -O /dev/null http://url.com/script.php
How can I make it so only the system (scheduled task or the server itself) can access to the file to execute it. I tried placing CHMOD 700 to the PHP file but everyone is still able to access to it and executive it.
Plesk version: 11.5.30 Update #44
I am attempting to migrate from a debian os server with the latest plesk 12 to Centos (rather cloudlinux) and would like to know if there are any options that should not be checked during the process?
I recently tried to do the normal procedure, which is to transfer all objects, etc. And for some reason the percentage went from 1-50% to then back to zero.. but when clicking to check the current status, its still working
Status: in progress
Current operation deploying domain.com
current operation progress: empty bar
Different sites are transferring, but I am not sure if the migration will effect the system because the difference in OS folder structure and file location.
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?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a fresh server running CentOS 6 (final). I am trying to install Plesk 11.5.30 but i am experiencing some problems. When i run the plesk-installer i get this message:
Your host name must resolve to the correct IP address of your server, unless you are using network address translation (NAT).
Please quit Parallels Installer, fix the host name resolution problem, and then try installing again.
You can skip the hostname check and continue the installation, however, in such a case, the installer cannot guarantee successful installation.
Now, in my /etc/hosts file i have this:
127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost4 localhost4.localdomain4

Is this correct? Or do i need to add/change something else?

We use Plesk 12 with ubuntu 12.04.5 LTS ......
Plesk 12 does not create backups for Customers.

I've been running a Plesk server with around 100 domains for years and years now. I've always used a backup service provided by the server vendor, but with a new server, I wanted to consider some of the backup options built into Plesk.
1. It looks like Plesk/Acronis is dead or only for Windows. Is that right?
2. If I add a backup drive to the server, can I setup Plesk Backup Manager to store the backups there (instead of on the main RAID array)?
3. Are there any other 3rd party extensions that I should consider?

I set up a FTP backup repository today however when attempting to restore selected objects from the backup there are a couple of messages that state:
"Restore the backup file despite a corrupted signature"
"You can select objects to restore only when you are restoring from backups that were created in Plesk 12.0 or later."
I noticed that the backup residing in the FTP repository has a .tar extension whilst the one I did in the server repository has a .xml extension.
Restoring selected objects from the server repository works fine.
Why is this not possible? I'd like to restore selected objects from the FTP repository. Otherwise I'll have to transfer the backup file from FTP repository to the server which is really inefficient.
Have some very important questions regarding changing plesk ports and creating full backups.
1. When changing plesks port number, what exactly will it effect? Will it effect auto updates, etc.?
2. When creating a backup, I'd like to backup the entire server to rollback at anytime when changes are made to core files, is this possible?
3. With backups, somehow I'd like to schedule backups to possibly make nightly copies to an external hard drive on my computer for a fail safe method just in case the server happens to crash and I'd need to restore to another server/service. How would this be possible?
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.

I want it to be
maindomain.com
seconddomain.com
thirddomain.com
etc ...

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.
