• Our team is looking to connect with folks who use email services provided by Plesk, or a premium service. If you'd like to be part of the discovery process and share your experiences, we invite you to complete this short screening survey. If your responses match the persona we are looking for, you'll receive a link to schedule a call at your convenience. We look forward to hearing from you!
  • The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.
  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

    Resolved Default Website Showing Despite Repair Attempts

    After loads of experimenting, I found the solution. I went to Tools & Settings -> IP Addresses. I clicked the IP address I was having a problem with. The default site was set to None. I selected the correct site and clicked "Ok" . That alone did not fix the problem. After that I ran...

    Resolved Default Website Showing Despite Repair Attempts

    I am running Plesk Onyx 17.8.11 on CentOS 7.6.1810 I had a website that had been deactivated and today I reactivated it in an attempt to test software updates on it. When it was restored it was on a shared IP address. I moved it to a dedicated IP address so I could directly access it by IP...

    Resolved Inbound Mail Stays in Queue

    After hours of trial and error (mostly error), I stumbled across the solution. I tried disabling the firewall just in case but that didn't work. I tried disabling Spamassassin but no change. I decided to change the SMTP server from Postfix to Qmail to see if that would work. I tried another...

    Resolved Inbound Mail Stays in Queue

    I managed to get the warning fixed but mail will still not deliver (inbound). Outbound mail works. Is there any chance this could be a firewall related issue? Or some kind of security feature?

    Resolved Inbound Mail Stays in Queue

    This is a new problem for me. This is a new server running Plesk (not my first Plesk system) and I have a problem where inbound mail stays in queue. I've attempted to flush the queue and no luck. I've done the mailbox repair command from the command line with no luck. I've checked DNS...

    Fail2Ban Keeps Turning Off

    Sorry Jan but I am not sure you are much help. I know Plesk doesn't make fail2ban and csf. It doesn't make Apache, PHP, nginx, etc. But it does work with those services and when there are problems related to those services working with Plesk people post here. Don't you think I've hunted high...

    Fail2Ban Keeps Turning Off

    Hi Jan, There was no error in the fail2ban.log. It was disabled as if I had done so through Plesk. CSF disabled it and never re-enabled it. So late last night/early this morning, there was another CSF update. This time it wasn't a clean shutdown with no errors. This time the log file was...

    Fail2Ban Keeps Turning Off

    I MAY have found a possible problem. Once again I noticed that fail2ban was off when I went into Plesk. Didn't make sense that my script didn't restart the service when it crashed. So I checked the logs. It didn't crash. It was shut off. I noted the time it shut down and remember getting a...

    Fail2Ban Keeps Turning Off

    Until this problem is fixed, I have added some protection to the server. I have a cron job that runs every 2 minutes to check if fail2ban is still running. The service gets restarted if it has failed. This isn't the ideal solution to the problem. Ideally the service wouldn't stop for some...

    Fail2Ban Keeps Turning Off

    Unfortunately the problem is back. Frustrating to say the least. Fail2ban is set to automatically restart if the service crashes, so I am not sure why it isn't restarting in these cases. Seems more like a shutdown of the service than a crash. I tested it out. If I kill the fail2ban service...

    Fail2Ban Keeps Turning Off

    As of now Fail2Ban seems to be running without any kind of errors. Two changes were made and I am not sure why solved the problem. I suspect the change from multiport to allports in the Fail2Ban configuration file solved the issue. But I also updated jail.conf as I mentioned earlier. Not...

    Fail2Ban Keeps Turning Off

    Thanks for the reply. Fail2Ban was running. It may have been restarted since those errors appeared in the logs. I also edited a Fail2Ban config file (name slips my mind) and changed the rules from multiport to allports. I went to install python-inotify and apparently it was already installed...

    Fail2Ban Keeps Turning Off

    Here is the output of iptables -L Took a few minutes to run.

    Fail2Ban Keeps Turning Off

    Thanks for the reply. Fail2Ban should be compatible since it was installed/activated using the Plesk control panel. Before I start messing with more settings on the server I will provide as much info as possible related to the questions you asked in case there is something obvious that I am...

    Fail2Ban Keeps Turning Off

    I really wish people would quit marking things resolved when they are not. Problems are ongoing. The reinstall did not fix the problem Fail2Ban continues to spew errors and it is only a matter of time before it shuts off again. Here is a sample of errors in the log. Maybe someone can make...
