• Our team is looking to connect with folks who use email services provided by Plesk, or a premium service.

  • 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.

Cannot chdir: Permission denied

While attempting to migrate individual sites from Parallels Pro (Ensim) 10.3.4 to Plesk 10.1.1, I repeatedly get a "Cannot chdir: Permission denied" error when the migration script attempts to unpack the email users' mailbox tar file. The tar file seems ok and I can manually unpack it, but I can't get the migration script to do this. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Dan

Here is the XML error log:

Is this question still actual?
Looks like the same bug as described in this thread.
The content of the emails is unpacked with the rights of the popuser account, which normally has userid 110. So you may check if the user exists and the target directory has the right permissions.
