    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.

500 Internal Server Error

My plesk just updated automatically this morning and now I am receiving 500 Internal Server Errors on all the PHP pages.

It also changed the directory of my where my domain is hosted. Previously the site was located at /var/www now it is located at /var/www/vhosts/domain.com/httpdocs

I'm not sure why it updated my file path but I have tried removing the .htaccess files already.

Any ideas on how I can troubleshoot this? Everything was working fine last night, and after update, I cannot see any PHP pages.

If i need to check an error log, please tell me the location, because I am confused to where the logs are when trying to find them :/

I am running plesk on debian.
 
What do you have for this:

tail -f /var/www/vhosts/domain.com/statistics/logs/error_log

With any of the domains displaying that error ?

Also, may I suggest you rebuild the vhosts?

/usr/local/psa/admin/sbin/httpdmng --reconfigure-all

Lastly do you have Nginx enabled or NOT?
 
This is what is displayed from the error_log

I rebuilt the vhosts, but no messages came up, it just waited a little and then the next line came up. Not sure if that's the way it works.

And Nginx is disabled from the Parallels Plesk panel.
 
tail: cannot open `/var/log/httpd/suexec_log' for reading: No such file or directory

This is what I got, I don't have a httpd folder in /log/

:/

I did find suexe.log in /apache2/ directory using this: tail -f /var/log/apache2/suexec.log

I did that, still the 500 error and getting the same messages regarding the cgi_wrapper in the log file.

Edit: What are the permissions for the files and folders regarding cgi? The owners?

Thanks.
