• 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.

Additional MySQL User Permissions for Magento compatibility

websavers

Regular Pleskian
Magento 2.0 now requires MySQL 5.6 or higher and a bunch of MySQL User capabilities that Plesk currently does not assign to MySQL users.

I know that Plesk simply uses the system installed MySQL server, so upgrades to that are beyond Plesk's purview. As a result of this we set up two dedicated DB servers one with Percona 5.6 and one with Percona 5.7 (high performance MySQL drop in replacement).

We then added each of those servers as Database Server sources in Plesk and created a database and user on there successfully. However installing Magento fails when specifying the newly created database because it's looking for the following MySQL user rights:

REFERENCES, EXECUTE, CREATE ROUTINE, ALTER ROUTINE, EVENT, TRIGGER

None of which are granted when creating a user with 'full' permissions using Plesk.

It would be great if we could have Plesk detect the MySQL server version and allow the application of those rights to MySQL users, when the server supports them. This way we can support applications like Magento 2.0 on a Plesk server.
