  • 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.

Plesk 11.09 on Server 2012: 503 Service Unavailable

Raul-ENG

New Pleskian
Hello,

I am having an issue with Plesk 11.09 and 11.5 on Windows Server 2012. When I attempt to open the control panel, I receive a 503 Service unavailable error. Digging into the logs a bit I find the following:

ApplicationPool PleskControlPanel
ConfigException Cannot read configuration file due to insufficient permissions
FileName \\?\D:\inetpub\temp\appPools\PleskControlPanel\PleskControlPanel.config
LineNumber 0
05000000


The plesk logs are showing the following from plesksrv.exe:
The system cannot find the file specified. (Error code 2) at GetFileVersionInfoSize for file 'C:\Windows\SystemRoot\system32\DRIVERS\pacer.sys' at (getDllVersion line 943) at Update component QoS Packet Scheduler(VComponenInfo::ComponentUpdateThread::execute line 129)
C:\Program Files (x86)\Parallels\Plesk\admin\bin\plesksrv.exe


Can you please give me some suggestions, I searched the forums and the web to no avail.

Thank You.

Hello,

Maybe this http://kb.parallels.com/en/111729 help to solve problem.

-> To recreate the PleskControlPanel site, execute these three commands:

"%plesk_bin%"\websrvmng.exe --configure-anonymous-access
"%plesk_bin%"\websrvmng.exe --remove-sites-cache
"%plesk_bin%"\websrvmng.exe --configure-plesk-website

then reboot PleskControlPanel service.
 
sorry...but this doesn't solve the problem...

Hi Dear

My Problem Resolved by this method ( sent by Parallels support team ) :

Initially, application pool for Plesk control Panel site was getting stopped repeatedly on the server. It caused Parallels Plesk Panel to throw 503 error.

In-order to fix the issue, I changed the Identity for the 'Plesk Control Panel' application pool to
'Local system' in Advanced Settings. Now the Parallels Plesk Panel is loading without any issue.
 
FIXED: Permissions issue when moving and deleting INETPUB

The problem related to wrong permissions. Try at least to enable display_errors in Parallels\Plesk\admin\php.ini and find more details.

Thanks for the suggestion, I looked into the permissions and realized that the issue was in fact with permissions. After moving the IIS root, the original inetpub folder was deleted and this was causing the issue. Plesk 11 has now successfully installed on my Windows 2012 server without any further issues.

Thanks for all the help and suggestions.
