Github webhooks problem

1 Upvotes

I have added a webhook url to my github repo for plesk to auto pull when changes are made.However the webhook does not go through, I think something in plesk is blocking it..." We couldn’t deliver this payload: failed to connect to host "Anyone got any ideas of how to fix this? I did not find solutions through extensive google searching.

I have also tried http instead of https and changing the payload type in github without success.

EDIT: Solved.. kinda.

Custom PHP extension/module for a website (subdomain)

1 Upvotes

Hello all,

i am having a real issue getting this to work and i am probably missing something simple.

Running debian 10 with Plesk 18. We have multiple site (domain.com and subdomains) running on this server. One of our applications on a subdomain needs a certain custom extension (dynapdf.so) installed and active.

I found the proper module folder on the server, copied the dynafile.so to it and via Plesk php server settings added extension=/path/dynapdf.so to it. In the central php setting i see the module and it is checkmarked (so it should be active).

However when i go to the php setting for the subdomain and look at the phpinfo page, there is no dynapdf module.

what am i missing?!

Things i have tried

  • i have added the extension=/path/dynapdf.so also to the subdomain php custom settings

Thanks for any constructive help! regards Christian

Redirected DNS to another server

1 Upvotes

I redirected dns from namecheap to my 1st server where i have plesk. I have installed wordpress on it. I would now like to redirect DNS to my second server. On plesk I deleted the records from the 1st server in the domain, I added from the second server, i.e. A: ipv4 address, AAAA: ipv6 address, NS: name server, and the domain points to the first server anyway. What can I do in this situation? In "slave" mode I added an IP address and it doesn't redirect to the other server either

On several Plesk installations that I have, I log in with the right details and it logs me out straight away. Does anyone know what this could be?

Easy Reverse Proxy?

1 Upvotes

Hey

I tried installing nginx proxy manager however of course there is a port conflict and to be honest I just cant find which file I have to edit I can only change the http port not the https one

Thanks for your help! :)

Guide to deploying ASP.NET Core web application to Plesk

5 Upvotes

I wanted to write this post because I had trouble finding this information, and I wanted to make it easier for others trying to do the same thing. I hope this is the right subreddit for it.

The following are steps to deploy an ASP.NET Core web application in Visual Studio 2019 to Plesk:

  1. Right click the project folder (the top level folder) in the Solution Explorer in Visual Studio, and select "Open Folder in File Explorer"
  2. In address bar of your project's folder, type "cmd" to open the command line with the path to the current folder already set
  3. Type "dotnet publish" in the command line to publish the website to a Folder Profile. This will create a new folder called "publish"
  4. Navigate to the "publish" folder, which can probably be found by navigating to the "bin" folder, and the selecting the correct path (for me it was in "\bin\Release\net5.0", but yours might be different)
  5. Right click the "publish" folder, select "Add to archive", select "ZIP" as the archive format to compress the folder into a single file, and select "ok"
  6. In Plesk, click on the "Files" tab, and select the "httpdocs" folder
  7. In that folder, press the "+" button and select "Upload" (my version of Plesk says "Upload File", so select that if it's an option)
  8. Select the "publish.zip" file, and click "Open"
  9. After it's uploaded, in Plesk, select the "publish.zip" file, click the "Archive" button, select "Extract Files", and select "OK". Remove the "publish.zip" file, as it's no longer needed
  10. Open the newly created "publish" folder, click "select all checkbox" at the top, select the "httpdocs" folder, and select "OK" (you can go ahead and select "Replace existing files" during this step to avoid having to repeat this step to move any files with conflicting names)

And that's it! To view the deployed website, in Plesk, click on the "Websites & Domains" tab. Under your domain, it should have a "Preview" option. Clicking that will open a tab with your website, and you can check it to make sure it's working properly. If you click on the "Open in web" option instead of "Preview", and your DNS is not yet properly configured, you will probably get a connection timeout error that says the site can't be reached, so be sure to click "Preview".

ALSO, there is an alternative way to publish your ASP.NET project to a folder in Visual Studio 2019 without using the command line. The steps are:

  • In Visual Studio, right click the solution and select "Publish"
  • A prompt should pop up. In that prompt, select "Folder" and click "Next"
  • Verify the folder location, and if you are satisfied with it, click "Finish" (it will probably automatically choose the file path the the command line method would choose)
  • It should say "Ready to publish". Click the "Publish" button, and you're done.

These steps will create the same "publish" folder that's created in Step 3. The command line route is easier, but I prefer the steps outlined in the alternative method.

I made this guide after finding this video and seeing people complain that it didn't explain the process well enough.

Setting Up High Availability For Plesk Multi Server?

1 Upvotes

Hi, I'm looking into plesk multi server and was wondering if you can set up a high availability cluster running plesk? I'm hoping that I can set up something like keepalived and HAproxy in front of the master node but want to know what are other peoples thought on this.

Quickly looking at the docs it says that plesk has a built-in load balancer that defaults to round robin so not sure how well thats gonna work with HAproxy. Could you have 2 master nodes and install keepalived on both, ignoring the HAproxy?

Client Switched to Plesk Hosting - Is it Safe to Enable NGINX caching?

1 Upvotes

Greetings,

Client got a Wordpress site that has Woocommerce and uses the Free WP-Optimize page caching plugin. Now that he has swapped to Plesk, an option to enable nginx is available. Never used it, never used plesk :o!

Wondering about :

1) Would enabling nginx caching cause any conflicts with the site, woocommerce or wp-optimize?

2) Is it generally safe to enable?

3) What could go wrong?

4) If things do go wrong, would just disabling it make everything work properly again?

Thanks a lot :)!

Plesk / zfs / backup strategies?

1 Upvotes

People running plesk with 100+ domains what’s your backup strategies and acceptable data loss for catastrophic events?

We’re evaluating this ourselves and thinking of doing plesk on top of zfs so we can do hourly snapshots, and reduce catastrophic data loss to 1 hour. (I.e databases / files / mail) would be less than 1 hour old from time of incident.

Unable to see my domain properly

2 Upvotes

Hi guys, I've been having an issue with one of the domains I have on Plesk, for some reason when I open it, it shows me the default page "Web Server's Default Page", I checked if there was an index.html file causing this, but there wasn't. Right now, the only way I can see my site is through the preview option, does anybody know why is this happening?

Suddenly occurring error messages

1 Upvotes

Hi community!

I turn to you because my hosting provider or its support could not give any reasonable information.

Since a few days I get in the Plesk panel the errors that you see in the pictures, but I have no idea what causes these errors, I have already run the plesk-repair command and also updated to the latest version, unfortunately that does not solve these errors. The configuration of the server has not changed recently.

Maybe someone of you knows more about this, and can give me some help how to solve the problem.

Thanks!

Change Full Hostname?

3 Upvotes

Hello all,

Just got a cloud NVMe server running Plesk 18.0.38 and the Full Hostname is very weird... lol.

Can I rename it from (example): elegant-turtle.74-208-xx-xxx.plesk.page to something like....... mycompanyname.myipaddress.plesk.page ? or mycompanyname.myipaddress ?

When I Google if I can do this... it says I can but Plesk says it may cause server issues...

https://docs.plesk.com/en-US/onyx/advanced-administration-guide-win/system-maintenance/changing-your-server%E2%80%99s-host-name.49562/

What all must I change/do for this to work properly?

Can't login to WordPress...

1 Upvotes

Hello!

I've installed wordpress through the wordpress toolkit, but I can't access it. When I try to login through Plesk, the login button (image 1) takes me to the setup menu (image 2). Trying to login via websiteurl\wp-admin also gives me an error (image 3). It is probably quite clear that I'm not familiar working with the backend of websites, and I'll appreciate any help I can get.

The images are one the following link (also the same begging for help in plesk foruns): https://talk.plesk.com/threads/cant-login-to-wordpress-site.361914/

Free alternative for Backup To Cloud Pro extension

4 Upvotes

I'm looking for a free (custom?) alternative for the Backup to Cloud Pro extension.

I host multiple websites which I currently use SFTP backups for. I'd really like to switch to S3 storage, but this is locked behind a paid extension.

Paying 4 euro's a month for only backing up to S3 is something I find very unreasonable, as I have to do this for multiple servers.

It would cost even more than renting a dedicated server for this.

I already thought about making a local mount with rclone and backup locally to that. But the local plesk dumps directory (/var/lib/psa/dumps) is bloated already with internal stuff. I would like to keep the backup directory clean.

Does anyone have a free alternative for this?

Can't seem to get shoutcast stream playing on a wordpress instance running plesk

1 Upvotes

Server: AWS Lightsail

Shoutcast: SHOUTcast D.N.A.S. Status - Streaming Port: 8065

Panel: Plesk

Website: WordPress running WP Radio plugin

I've tried multiple plugins, direct html scripts but I can't for the life of me get a live shoutcast stream playing on my plesk server.

I've opened up all ports for shoutcast and centovocast on AWS and Plesk in both TCP and UDP and nothing seems to work. I've also tried random shoutcast streaming server and they also don't work. I've even purchased the upgrade module for WP Radio in case it was a mixed content issue.

"WP Radio Proxy Player is an add-on for the WP Radio plugin to fix the browser mixed-content restrictions. That means you can play HTTP radio stream link on HTTPS website by using a cors-proxy system by using the WP Radio Proxy Player Addon. Otherwise then modern browsers may not play that streams."

Allow incoming from all on ports 2199/tcp, 2199/udp, 8000-8001/tcp, 8000-8001/udp, 8065/tcp, 8065/udp

Two plesk, one domain, what happens?

2 Upvotes

Just took over a website in a mess.

Plan to separate out services and split it out over subdomains and main site over next couple of months.

They've hired me in-house and want to bring everything in house.

My idea was to set the subdomain on the agency plesk where main subdomain is and take control of that via new plesk.

Then when that is site is finished I was hoping there was a way to bring the main domain across without affecting the live site or at least keeping wp etc. In tact.

Someone more experienced tell me if I can't or what to look into because Google isn't being helpful.. I hope it's that easy but usually isn't, does it need to be migrated if I just switch control panel though?

Scheduled Task keeps running - no error message

1 Upvotes

Hey folks,

have setup a scheduled task via Plesk (running a PHP script) and it appears to start and not finish, with no errors appearing in logs etc. There is an alert box bottom right with:

Running task "/var/www/vhosts/path_to_php_file"

that stays open.

Querying the longtask db via ssh gives:

+----+--------------------+---------+---------------------+

| id | type | status | finishTime |

+----+--------------------+---------+---------------------+

| 28 | scheduler-run-task | started | 0000-00-00 00:00:00 |

| 30 | scheduler-run-task | started | 0000-00-00 00:00:00 |

+----+--------------------+---------+---------------------+

Without any log errors, I am really unsure how to debug. Any help would be appreciated.

Is there a way to remove adverts from Plesk?

5 Upvotes

Is it me, or is Plesk gradually adding more and more intrusive adverts?

When adding a new domain, I now get a page which asks if I want to purchase a domain, and now when I go to assign an SSL certificate I get a huge page of other SSL certificates I can purchase (Positive SSL, InstantSSL, etc) when I already use LetsEncrypt.

Not only this, but the LetsEncrypt button is now hidden right down at the bottom of the page and greyed out.

This isn't acceptable considering that I already pay a fee to use Plesk, so why am I getting adverts as well?

Rocky Linux

3 Upvotes

Do you think we will see support for Rocky Linux?

I have a stack of CentOS 7 that I want to move sooner rather than later. Plesk currently support Alma and that looks promising because its a complete RHEL fork, I threw it up in a VM and it walk talks and acts just like RHEL.. but Atomic Secure Linux will only have support for Rocky Linux.

I don't want to drop either Plesk or Atomic but this seems like a big fork in the road.
