Turn off Web Server (Apache) permanently

Aragato

New Pleskian
Hi guys,

I am using nginx exclusively for my websites/php stuff and I do not need apache anymore. I want to switch off Web Server (Apache) service permanently (see screenshot 1). But somehow or something turns it always back on. I am getting a lot of apache memory warnings lately. I just want to turn it off.

Please help.

You can't use only one Nginx for web hosting. Most hosting features in Plesk require Apache.
 
Hmm, but everything is working fine when I turn of apache. All websites working well. It just turns itself on everytime and consumes memory for something I do not even know.
 
You can't permanently disable Apache in Services. Any action by Plesk will start Apache again. We never said that you can use only nginx for webhosting.
