Brand New Plesk 12.5 Install Dies After Initial Login.

J.Wick

Regular Pleskian
Just installed Plesk 12.5 on a fresh server in Digital Ocean and everything went smooth up to the point of install where the sftp sub system had a bug during install preventing chroot from properly setting up.

I fixed the config file with that issue, and ran Plesk Repair --all

Then logged, accepted the agreement, set the IP address, changed the password, then on submission get the following error. Re-ran Plesk Repair again and still no dice.

ERROR: Call to a member function syncFileSharingUser() on null (configure.php3:115)

Going to toss this server and restart from scratch again.
 
2nd attempt was a success, and this time I just installed the "base" without doing any wild customization and then made changes after and it all worked.
