  • 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.

Correct user id for git repo checkouts into website live area?

Thomas_Beale

New Pleskian
Trying to set up a somewhat typical git-based website workflow (something like this: https://gist.github.com/oodavid/1809044).

Our set up has the git repo for the site in /var/www/git/<site>, and a deploy.php script in /var/www/vhosts/domain/<site> (i.e. the 'site' is a subdomain). The script would do a git pull and git checkout from the repo dir to the live dir.

At the moment we made the git repo www-data:www-data, and the deploy script www-data:psaserv. It's not working yet, and i guess permissions are the problem. What user does apache run as under Plesk 12 (Debian)? What user/group should we be using for this setup?

thanks for any help
