Plesk 12.x / Linux :: Restore From Single Domain Failed
Jun 21, 2015
I am using Plesk 12.0.18 Update #51 on Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS.
I want to restore a single Domain from Plesk GUI but it failed:
Archiver error: from /private-backup/plesk/clients/WSKunde/domains/domainname.de/backup_domainname.de_conf_1506200200.tgz:
forkExecvPipes: execv() failed: No such file or directory
System error 2: No such file or directory
Warning: domain "domainname.de"
I have a VPS running Plesk 11.x and yesterdady I tried adding a new domain to my subscription and received this error:
Error: Unable to update domain data: Unable to restore the DNS zone: an error occurred while adding the DOMAINNAME IN A DOMAINNAME record: Incorrect DNS record values were specified.
I have one subscription and under that a few domains. I've not had any DNS issues before so I'm a little stumped as to where to start looking. I suspect DNS template issues but I'm not that au fait with the DNS template so I don't want to start fiddling. My service provider suggested I look at [URL] ... which doesn't appear to be related as I have no duplicate domains under my subscription.
Following on from this the VPS is my personal server and I host a few sites for friends consequently I only have the one subscription. I've been advised that I should have one subscription per domain. Is that correct information?
Plesk Panel 11.5.30, on Centos 5.10. I have 2 'domains' running on the same ip; sub.mysite.com and mysite.com. I need to add SSL to sub.mysite.com.
From the documentation, [URL] ...., it appears that if the user is using a SNI compatible browser a single SSL certificate for sub.mysite.com should work (as I am using a linux server, SNI is enabled by default I believe).
However, the control panel for the domain (website & domains > hosting settings) states that "To employ SSL, move this site to a dedicated IP address, install an SSL certificate on the site, and then select it below." In addition, other documentation makes reference to a "Secure your sites" link on the control panel to implement a purchased SSL certificate, which is not visible to me - I presume because the domain is not on a dedicated ip address.
Can someone confirm that; a) a SSL certificate for sub.mysite.com on a shared ip will work. b) that the SSL for sub.mysite.com would managed at the server level (Server Management > Tools & Settings > SSL Certificates) rather than the domain's control panel.
One alternative may be to purchase a wildcard SSL certificate (*.mysite.com). This post [URL] .... suggests that this would work. However, this is a more costly option and does more that I need (i.e. delivers SSL for all domains).
I could also purchase a dedicated ip address for sub.mysite.com. I have no experience of moving domains within plesk from a shared ip to a dedicated ip. Is this a straightforward process?
Outlook 2013 complains about the SSL certificate when using email. Installing the certificate still doesn't stop the error/warning. What are my options?
Can I install on the plesk server a self-signed SSL cert and avoid the issues? Can I buy & install a single certificate for that one domain and resolve the issue but not affect others. Do I need to buy a SAN certificate for the whole server?
I have hired two servers for plesk and I have the mail configured in one server and the website in another one, it all seems to work fine except for a problem.
When the server where the website is tries to send a message through a smtp account it can´t send it, it seems to be looking for the mail server in the same server where the website is instead of look for it in the other server.
I have to restore only the cronjobs for a spcecific domain from a plesk backup which is stored on another server. I searched in all the full backup structure but impossible to retrieve the data.
Would like to know what are the dangers of backing up and restoring full entire system backups (with plesk installed) to another server with a different ip address? Will the restored plesk setup operate properly and offer an ip address change in the system, or will there be any pre-requisites required such as manual ip changing within the system core files?
I make full backup from my Plesk 11 server and Copy All files over %plesk_dir%/Backup to New server. When I tried to restore them I received this error !

I have many server with Plesk 12...in this server I have single nameserver...example server number 1 have ns1.domain.com and ns2.domain.com - server number 2 have ns1.tldnames.com ns2.tldnames.com etc etc...
Now I want manage all server with single nameserver example all server working with ns1.newnameserver.com and ns2.newnameserver.com ....
I have licenses for my server of Plesk no limits...how check if PPA is installed in my server ? Otherwise how to install PPA or other software for DNS Manager?
I migrated domains from another server and they had separate http and https folders. Now I need to make them use same httpdocs for both http/https. How do I do it for a single domain? How do I batch do it for all domains?
I deleted my databases unconsciously in Parallels Plesk 12 for CentOS.I want to restore all data because it's more important for my activities.Is it possible to restore or others possibilities for my problem ?
i have make a full Plesk Backup on my Old Server with Plesk 12.0(Ubuntu) and will restore the Backup on my new Server with Plesk 12.0(CentOS).When i will restore the backup i get this error: "Error: The source file is not a valid XML file. If you supplied an archive file containing a backup from Plesk version 9 or later, then extract the contents of this archive, and process the extracted XML file with the converter. If you want to convert a backup file from a Plesk version earlier than 9, then you first need to process it with the pre9-backup-convert utility, and then process the resulting file with the pre10-backup-convert utility."
I made a backup of my website with plesk backup manager on an external FTP, now I want to restore this backup on a new server which isn't using plesk, for test purposes. I've downloaded the backup (which is in .tar) on my PC, and extracted all files firstly from the general .tar archive, then the user_data from .tgz. Then to extract all the databases (they were in a folder "databases" after I've extracted the general .tar file), I extracted them from database_name_145536536.tgz, then from database_name_145536536.tar, so that now I've a series of "database_name_145536536" files. (145536536 are some example numbers).
I'm interested in restoring both files and mysql databases.
To restore the files, I can simply use the extracted files from the user_data archive.
To restore the mysql databases, I tried to do "mysql -p -u username database_name < file" and everything seemed to work fine.
Is this process ok? Is it 100% safe and sure or I could face some bugs?
Yesterday we upgraded V.11 to V.11.5.30. And now we are not able to restore our backups anymore from our main server on our failover server by CLI (we have automated this with cronjobs and need the CLI backup/restore). We have a failover sulotion with two servers and restore the backups of our main server on our failover server!
If we try to create the map file on our failover server, we get the error:
The dump specification '/home/backups/plesk_partnerserver/dumps/backup_info_1308030132.xml' should be inside of dump directory '/home/backups/plesk/dumps'. /home/backups/plesk_partnerserver/dumps is the path on our failoverserver where we store the backups of our main server and /home/backups/plesk/dumps ist the regular dump path of the failover server.
And if we try to restore the file without creating a map file on our failover server with /usr/local/psa/bin/pleskrestore --restore backup_info_1308030132.xml -level server: Unable to resolve all conflicts
What happend? Now after upgrading to 11.5 our backup- and failover-solutions are in big trouble!
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've generated migration files on a source server that runs plesk11.5..I've transfer these files to my new server (plesk 12).I've logged into plesk on the new server, go to migration tool and create a new migration using local files.with chrome dev tools. i can see the following a post request is sent to :
/plesk/ server/migration/start/ the response is a redirection ( http status 303 , location = /admin/backup/restore/type/import/id/migration )a
After several attempts to this url I've got : admin/backup/restore/type/import/id/migration net::ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS..is there a way to restore the data using the command line ?
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 working on a plan for restoring my whole Plesk server fast in a worst case scenario. Which will never happen hopefully.
The backup is a full backup done by the Backup Manager in Plesk. It lies on a remote FTP server.
Right now I'm fetching the whole backup directory with wget while in the background the Plesk Installation is running. These actions take about 1h to complete.
Afterwards I would restore with /usr/local/psa/bin/pleskrestore.
Is there a better way? For example installing Plesk directly out of a full backup?

I have a repository backup that I want to partially restore. I see the option "Selected Objects" but it cannot be selected. I'm wondering why that is not an option? I'm also wondering what "restore this backup despite the fact that it does not have a valid signature" means. I see a check box. Is Plesk telling me my backup doesn't have a valid signature? What is the meaning of a "signature"?
