• 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.

Incorrect traffic reporting - Plesk Control Panel

We are running Plesk8.6 - Centos 5 x64 on a few of our shared hosting servers.

We have an issue where a domain reported 16TB!! of traffic on the control panel for September.
Interresting enough webalizer doesnt reflect the same trafic , rather 2.7gb which on par with previous month's traffic.

Investigating the domains traffic for Sept in the PSA database, the 27th reflects the traffic under http_out.

Investigating the Apache access log files reflects hundreds of funny entries(probably hack attempts), which Plesk seems to interpret as traffic amounts which Sawmill and Webalizer doesnt.

Has anyone come across anything similar, and is there a way to prevent Plesk/Apache to calculate these log entries as traffic. How come Plesk reflects 16TB where other stats packages reflect the more believable 2.7Gb
