Why servers are being run out of memory by the 'sort' command even when the logs are small? Here's what is currently on a site:
-rw-r--r-- 2 root root 22392143 Mar 26 11:40 access_log

We found an issue after running plesk mchk command to restore all the mail server settings with SpamAssiassin settings enabled for all email accounts on the Plesk Server.
After running the mchk command, we found many warning messages in the psa maillog as following "authpsa : No such user [Email account] in mail authorization database".
We checked the mysql database for records on the Email Account that the error is referring to but found that the Domain Email Database was deleted (email address, password, email data). Is this something normal that the plesk mchk command does? Plesk 12.0.18 Update #37
What does this string do? I copy and paste it into my SSH Shell and i get ip addresses and numbers next to them.
Each number means one connection?
netstat -plan|grep :80|awk {'print $5'}|cut -d: -f 1|sort|uniq -c|sort -nk 1
it's starting to kill child processes and eventually stops/hangs.

I have a brand new A8i server from 1&1 that has crashed twice today and could only be rebooted through the 1&1 control panel (not Plesk). Out of the blue the server is not accessible from the Plesk CP and is not responding to pings. I have looked through the logs and do not see anything that stands out (I am not very Linux savvy). Is there somewhere specific that I can look that would tell me why it is locking up/crashing? I have only had the server about 2 weeks and am only running email on it (no websites besides webmail and Plesk CP). It is possible that there is a hardware issue, but I cannot have 1&1 check it until after hours tonight.
Server is an 8 core Intel Atom 2.6GHz with 8GB RAM.

How can I fix this problem? The Script is 100% i/O because it has worked onder PHP 5.2 and its comp. whit 5.4.
is there any way by which we can keep the command running on PUTTY even when there is Power Failure on our local computer.
What i mean is -
Suppose i am running a TAR command on my BOX and suddenly Power goes off my local PC, so when i relogin i have to start from starch,
is there any way to avoid it, and login back to putty and resume the session?

I want to run a script that will loop through all of the domains on a particular server and remove all MX records with mail.*.I am testing on a single test domain at the moment but I'm not sure how to do the wildcard./usr/local/psa/bin/dns -d example.com -mx '' -mailexchanger mail.*
The following example command is from: URL....To add an MX resource record mail3.example.com specifying domain name mail.example.com as the mail exchanger for the record, and setting the mail exchanger's priority to the DNS zone on the domain example.com to 15:
# ./dns -a example.com -mx mail3 -mailexchanger mail.example.com -priority 15..What does the mail3.example.com got to do with it? Isn't it just adding a MX record mail.example.com?
My hosting company is telling me my VPS is running out of memory. Lets look at the stats of the site and the server.
Server:
Centos
384 megs of ramm
1 gig burst ramm
20 gig hard drive
cPanel
My total traffic for last month was about 7 gigs.
Webite:
Vbulletin 3.6.5 with a few mods
database is about 16 megs
99 members
The most ever online was 20
Yesterday my site started showing a database error page, instead of the website index page. The stats at the bottom of the page showed only 7 people on the site at the time. When I contacted my hosting provider, they told me I was maxing out my memory and burst ram.
So how can a website this small max out the given ram? This is really starting to TICK me off. I have left two hosting companies because of poor performance, why cant things just work right? How is my community supposed to grow if my users keep getting a database error instead of the web page?
After upgrading the panel from 10.4.4 to 11.5.30 Update #23, I am not able to sort domains based on the "Renewal Date" column. With 10.4.4, I was able to sort. Is there anyway I can do this on 11.5.30?

There is a KB article about this specific problem : [URL] .... , but it refers to older Plesk versions (8.x-10.x). I gave it a shot by copying the fix file from all 3 different versions to /usr/local/psa/admin/plib/api-common/ and i got the following PHP errors:

Is there any workaround this PTR issue? Also, is Parallels going to update the article and provide solution for Plesk 12?
Up till the last update Plesk was working correctly. After the latest update I can't send out mail in any form:
webmail, pop3, wordpress forms, etc.
This is the error message I get:
Command died with status 100: "/usr/bin/spamc".
Command output: Mail handler 'limit-out' said: REPLY:554:5.7.0
Your message could not be sent. The user spamfilter is not allowed to send email.
When I reverted back to the last snapshot before the update everything works fine again. But the automated update bot messes it all up again when it downloads the newer version.

I have a dedicated server which I access via remote desktop.
The firewall is not enabled. What kind of security should I have on my server?
Ive read that if I enable Windows Firewall my remote desktop connection will be blocked & this will mean me having to contact the server company via phone etc.
recently brought a dedicated server with fasthosts.
Currently my site has
Physical80.31% 84Mb Free (428Mb Total)
Virtual2.99% 1987Mb Free (2048Mb Total)
The physical memory has shot up, do I need to reduce it somehow?
I run a drupal site on a VPS running Lighttpd with 128MB ram and 15GB disk space. Every so often the server crashes and I have no access to even reboot via the shell, I have to get my host to reboot the VPS. They say its most likely due to the server running out of memory. I would have no more than 5 users plus 5 guests online at the same time. So my question is this...
How can I find out exactly what is consuming the memory and causing the server to crash? I have looked at drupal logs and the server logs, but I'm no wiser as to whats causing it. What should I be looking for and what can I do to try and solve this?
I have a VPS with 512 MB ram. I have 6 sites hosted on my VPS, of which 3 contains only static pages. My site is not very traffic heavy. Infact I moved to my VPS only 3 months back, until then it was running on a shared server with no problem.
But still, I am always running out of RAM. I have upgraded my account to 512 MB ram from 256MB because of this. Can anyone please tell me how I can find out what is the cause of this excessive memory usage? On rebooting my server, the RAM usage goes down to about 250MB.
I have just recently moved to Plesk web admin from cpanel. I have been trying to get the cron to run for the past 48 hours but no luck. Bellow is the code i have been trying to execute via cron but It does not run.

I'm using this script as a cron to generate DKIM keys for the domains I have. It's an easy script. And it does it's job just OK. I have the necessary software installed and configured.
The way it works is:
The script check if the domain in queue has a record for it. If it doesn't, OpenDKIM generates a one time DKIM record for mail._domainkey that I am entering to my dns records for all the domains I have.
After creating the DKIM record, it checks and deletes mail._domainkey records if there's any. Then adds the generated DKIM to plesk dns zones and disables/enables greylisting to create the appropriate dns entry.
If it does have a DKIM recors on the hdd already, then it removes
mail._domainkeyand
TXT o=-entries.
After that it basically adds the already generated DKIM record and it disables/enables the greylisting for each domain in order to recreate "TXT o=-"
Up till here, it works fine. I can see these entries when I check the DNS Settings. They are there.
But whenever I run this script either via cron or manually, I get an error message on my panel: (You can check the screenshot as well)
Code:
Warning: The DNS zone was modified. If you would like to apply DNS template changes to this zone, either click the 'Apply DNS Template Changes' button on this page or choose the 'Apply the changes to all zones' option in Server Administration Panel > Tools & Settings > DNS Template Settings > Apply DNS Template Changes.
And unless I manually click "Apply DNS Template Changes" for EVERY SITE it doesn't go away.
So, I was wondering, is there a way to scriptize that command? Or how to prevent it?
This is the command I use to generate DKIM and add it to Plesk database, also if any such record exists, delete and re-write it:
Code:
#!/bin/sh
ADMIN_PASS=`cat /etc/psa/.psa.shadow`
MYSQL_BIN_D=`grep MYSQL_BIN_D /etc/psa/psa.conf | awk '{print $2}'`
mysql="${MYSQL_BIN_D}/mysql -N -uadmin -p${ADMIN_PASS} psa"
query="select name from domains;"
domains=`echo $query | $mysql `
for i in ${domains}; do
echo "Processing $i"

I'm looking to set up a schedulled backup from command line.
I haven't found the correct command, could you tell me if it's possible and how ?
Additional question: I'm looking too, to set for the server the max number backup file to save, do you know how to do it from cli ?
Is there a command line way of removing Plesk backups?
I'm looking for the command line equivalent of these steps: Log into Plesk as the server admin > "Tools & Settings" > "Tools & Resources" > "Backup Manager" > check a backup and click "Remove".
We have a script that copies the contents of "/var/lib/psa/dumps/" to Amazon S3 for long-term storage of backups. It runs nightly after a scheduled Plesk backup. Once that script completes successfully, we'd like to delete the Plesk backup to free up disk space. We have Plesk's "Maximum number of backups in the repository" set to 1.
But Plesk appears to keep that backup around while creating a new backup (which makes some sense). This is causing us trouble because the server does not have enough disk space for two backups. As a temporary solution, I'm manually deleting the backup each day through the Plesk admin, but would like to automate it if possible. If automation is overly complex/risky, we'll look at upping our disk space instead.
Is there any way for a client to use command line mail in a script. Client has ssh access via chromed environment.

Patch for plesk 12.0.18 will not be installed since it is already applied.Error: You already have the latest version of product(s) and all selected components installed. Installation will not continue.HOWEVER the "mail" and mail server configuration no longer shows in "tools & settings".
We have a plesk server running on a Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS machine. We check the state of the mailqueue with nagios, executing the "mailq" command. After the AutoInstaller upgraded our installation from 12.0.18 update 38 to 39, we noticed, that the nagios check failed.
After investigating a little bit, it seems that we found the problem:
When I enter "mailq" in the shell, the command is executed and gives me an proper output. But when I try to execute the command with its full path "/usr/bin/mailq" nothing happens, and I have to cancel with [ctrl]+[c]. The which-command delivers exactly the same path as written above...
I currently have the Web Application Firewall (ModSecurity) installed but would like a visual interface to block IP's, subnets etc.. Can I install the Plesk firewall as well without any conflict with the Web Application Firewall?
