• 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.

Resolved Unable to read or execute files from the WordPress root directory

ToddE

New Pleskian
After migrating a site to a new server and scanning for WordPress installations: I receive the following:

{"err_code":40001,"err_message":"Unable to read or execute files from WordPress root directory: D:\\PLESK\\VHOSTS\\pointmonitor.com\\httpdocs\/"} {"err_code":40003,"err_message":"Unable to read or execute files from wp-admin\/includes directory': D:\\PLESK\\VHOSTS\\pointmonitor.com\\httpdocs\/wp-admin\/includes"} {"err_code":40004,"err_message":"Unable to read or execute files from wp-includes directory: D:\\PLESK\\VHOSTS\\pointmonitor.com\\httpdocs\/wp-includes"} {"err_code":40005,"err_message":"Unable to read or execute files from wp-content directory: D:\\PLESK\\VHOSTS\\pointmonitor.com\\httpdocs\/wp-content"}

I cannot figure out what permissions it wants. Private server, so I do have access to IIS 7. I have run the Plesk Reconfigurator > Correct disk permissions: no joy.
 
Database structure is the same for Windows and Linux Plesk versions.
 
The KB article has been updated with a link to a patch for this issue:

https://kb.odin.com/en/127725

I can confirm it fixes the problem on Plesk 12.5 for Windows and Wordpress 4.4. I applied the patch and then had to run a "Resynchronize" operation on each of the affected WP sites.
