  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.
  • 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.

logwatch 4.3.2 not cleaning up /tmp

Hi All,

We're running logwatch 4.3.2 on our plesk server and all of a sudden logwatch doesn't seem to be cleaning up after itself. We had to go in and manually delete the logwatch file from /tmp. With /tmp only being 95M and the logwatch file filling this up, customer's scripts and database can't write to /tmp any more.

Any suggestions on why logwatch is not cleaning up after itself?

Currently running Plesk 8.2 on Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES release 3 (Taroon Update 6).
