i need information about this option 'Check /etc/cron.daily/logrotate for /tmp noexec workaround', there are in the server check, of the csf test, someone can explain to me about this function? should do it?
A couple weeks ago, I encountered a big server crash on my VPS that caused me a lot of downtime. I'm currently trying to figure out a solution to keep a current "clone" of all of my server accounts on a second server. That way, if I ever encounter another crash, I'll be able to simply change DNS information to have all accounts "live" using the backup server.
I appreciate any input, advice, suggestions, criticism, etc. Here's what I have in mind...
1. I currently have all of my websites hosted on Server #1. (We'll call it that for the sake of avoiding confusion.)
2. I have an automatic nightly backup setup via cPanel / WHM that backs up all accounts from Server #1 to Server #2 via FTP. (Server #2 is in a totally different data center, with a different provider.)
3. The nightly backup packages all of the accounts as "cPanel Full Backups." So, they're compressed, and as such, they don't work as "live, functioning websites" on Server #2.
The only way to make them "live and functional" on Server #2 would be to use cPanel to "restore" the backups.
4. So, what I'd like to do is setup a CRON job that would automatically "Restore" the backups each morning on Server #2. That way, Server #2 would always have a functional version of all my accounts, that is less than a day old. Then, if Server #1 ever crashed, I'd just have to change DNS information to point to Server #2, and all of the websites would be live again, without having to physically restore all of the backups using cPanel.
I don't know a ton about CRON. However, as I understand it, CRON couldn't actually make cPanel restore the backups. However, I'm assuming that when you use cPanel's "Restore" function, it just goes through a series of processes. So, it seems logical to me that, if you knew what those processes were, you could write a CRON job to automate the process every morning.
Did that make sense?
If so, is it possible?
Do you guys have any input, criticism, etc?
If it's doable, can you make any suggestions that would help me make this happen?
Finally, if you think you have the expertise to make this happen, I'd be interested in chatting with you via Private Message. I'd be willing to pay to have this done.(Note to Moderators: I'm not sure if my last comment is allowed or not ... if not, please feel free to remove it. I'm far more interested in the discussion of this process than trying to solicit help in making it happen.)

In plesk9 my customers had the option to send daily usage reports by e-mail. Only certain clients like this option. Using plesk11 I cannot find this option if I log in as a client. Has this feature been removed? And if so, can the administrator enable this option only for 1 or 2 clients?
I'm new to Parallels Panel. I use version 11.0.9. I want to backup mysql database daily. First of all, what is the best way for daily database backup in plesk. I'm trying to do this in Scheduled Tasks and I use mysqldump command although I'm not sure.
I chose the time and day first and then I switched on the task. I typed the following command to Command line.
This created only a blank file. When I use this without gzip, nothing changes.
1- Is mysqldump right command for database backup? 2- Should I define full path for mysqldump, gzip and database? If so, how can I find out the full path of mysqldump, gzip and my database? Because I can't see their locations in panel. 3- I can't see any error message. There is not any log file in httpdocs folder. Where does the log file exist? 4- It is weird but should the username be "database user" or should I write "root" ?
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.
"/usr/bin/php /var/www/ vhosts/mydomain. com /httpdocs/billing/index.php cron"
After changing website domain name (from development one -dev-domain.com- to production one) we have this error in fail2ban.log :

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 recently installed a plesk on a vps in OVH hosting, and after that i installed a new domain on it. I'm getting errors sending emails and some email providers return them or consider them as spam.
I just migrated a bunch of domains from plesk 11.5. Everything appears to be working well however when examining the maillog, I am seeing some strange errors... In this example, the message was delivered and had the spamassassin stuff in the header.
spamd: handle_user unable to find user: 'jason@xxxxxxp.com'
My Linux (CentOS) server with Plesk 12 is giving HTTP 414 errors ("URL too long") in response to URLs which are over 256 characters in length. They happen to include a GET variable in the query string which accounts for most of this length, and if I shorten it manually, it works. But I can't change the script to submit a shorter URL or send it by POST, because it comes from an external payment processing server which I don't control.
Adding the following lines to my /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf file and restarting Apache does not work:
LimitRequestLine 8190 LimitRequestFieldSize 8190
The URLs I'm trying to use are well short of 8190 bytes; they are around 800 characters long.
Is this something that Plesk affects / can control? Is there a way to see what the current maximum setting for URL length is, and to change it?
For some reason I am receiving nginx errors after migrating all sites to a new plesk server. It seems only the default permalinks are allowing the websites to work, but custom permalinks aren't working.

The requested document was not found on this server.
All domains were offline this morning. Plesk showed the following error message. It seems we are beta testing the software. I am on Suse 13.1, clean install.

I was creating an Plesk extension and I need to edit root's crontab for the extension to work properly. While doing some experiment I understand that the Plesk extension works with the permission of psaadm . So I cannot use shell_exec to do this. Is there any api or cli interface where I will be able to do this. Is there any possibility to override the restriction of psaadm user through extension.
