Dist-Upgrade Support

regarding the pre and post scripts under /usr/local/psa/bin/ or /opt/psa/bin/:
in have the following files only. a deb7-deb8_post file is missing.

distupgrade.helper.deb6-deb7_post.x64.sh
distupgrade.helper.deb7-deb8_pre.x64.sh
distupgrade.helper.deb7-deb8.x64.sh

were can i get the post script file for deb7 to deb8,
and what is happening exactly in the pre and post scripts?

Regards,
Stephan

Actually, this file is a part of plesk-core package:

# ls -la /opt/psa/bin/distupgrade.helper.deb7-deb8_post.x64.sh
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 61327 bře 17 2017 /opt/psa/bin/distupgrade.helper.deb7-deb8_post.x64.sh

# dpkg -S /opt/psa/bin/distupgrade.helper.deb7-deb8_post.x64.sh
plesk-core: /opt/psa/bin/distupgrade.helper.deb7-deb8_post.x64.sh

I have attached this file.

Thank you very much Igor!
Would you mind to post the pre script as well. I'm not sure if my pre script is up to date.

i took your post script and compared it to my distupgrade.helper.deb7-deb8.x64.sh
they look almost the same. just some differences here and there. so i guess for some reason
i am not up to date there. maybe the plesk update from 12.5 did not update everything?

i'm running Plesk Onyx
Version 17.5.3 Update #30

ps: i can't upload a zip or sh file here
"The uploaded file does not have an allowed extension.
distupgrade-helper-deb7-deb8-x64.zip"

Try to fix it with

# plesk installer --select-release-current --reinstall-patch --upgrade-installed-components
# plesk repair installation

ps: i can't upload a zip or sh file here
"The uploaded file does not have an allowed extension.
distupgrade-helper-deb7-deb8-x64.zip"

New attachments and other rules

ok, i did this as you recommended.
but looking at the file dates it does not look like the distupgrade script files have been replaced
