Plesk Obsidian 18.0.65

29 October 2024

What’s New?

  • This release, we invested a lot of resources into improving Docker support in Plesk. We overhauled the Docker extension graphical interface to make it modern and more convenient, added Docker Compose support, fixed many pesky bugs, and more! Here are some of the highlights:

  • As per UserVoice request, it is now possible to deploy Docker Compose YAML files (but not Dockerfiles or any other files required by an application), and also to modify and update the stacks from the new “Stacks” tab. Use copy and paste, or upload them from local storage. Typical operations on stacks are supported, such as: up (including pull and force-recreate), stop, and down.

  • The main Docker page was split into the “Containers” and “Images” tabs.

  • The “Configurations” page is now the “Environments” tab.

  • The ability to pull images was added to the extension’s interface.

  • As per UserVoice request, Docker containers’ configuration (but not data in Docker volumes) is now included in Plesk backups.

To enable these features, add the following lines to the panel.ini file:

ext-docker newUI = on

  • Added a helper to assist users with connecting their mail clients to the “Mail Accounts” page. The Configure Mail Clients button helps users turn on autodiscover, and also provides concise instructions on how to connect their Mozilla Thunderbird, Gmail on Android, iOS Mail, or Outlook 2016 or earlier client to their Plesk mailboxes.
  • As per UserVoice request, added the ability to quickly empty mailboxes of all mail to the “Mail Accounts” page. The Empty Mailbox button enables users to remove all mail, both incoming and outgoing, from one or more mailboxes with a click.

To disable this feature, add the following lines to the panel.ini file:

mail canClearMailbox = false

  • A new version of the Multi-Factor Authentication extension will be released together with Plesk Obsidian 18.0.65. Here are some of the highlights:

  • The “Accounts” tab was added. It lists all Plesk user accounts and their MFA statuses.

  • The ability to deactivate MFA for dependent users was added.

  • The MFA secret key is now regenerated when the MFA feature is reactivated for a user.

  • We are glad to introduce the beta version of the WHMCS Installer extension. The extension helps you install and configure WHMCS by guiding you through the essential steps: installing PHP and ionCube Loader, configuring and installing WHMCS, creating the database, and securing the system.

We would love to hear your feedback about this extension at [email protected].

  • (Plesk for Windows) MariaDB 11.4 is now supported. It is the latest “long-term support” version from the vendor. Support for MariaDB 11.4 in Plesk for Linux was added in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.64.

Feature Improvements

  • (Plesk for Linux) The Performance Booster feature will be rolled out to all supported Plesk Obsidian installations. The feature enables Plesk administrators to tweak PHP, web server, and database server settings to significantly improve the hosted websites’ performance.

To disable the feature, add the following lines to the panel.ini file:

ext-performance-booster enabled=false

  • Thirteen various bugs were fixed to improve the CentOS 7 to AlmaLinux 8 conversion tool.
  • Improved the look of the subscription creation progress drawer when creating a subscription with a long name.

Fixed Product Issues

  • The “last modified” timestamps on the users’ files restored from backup (including mail) are no longer reset to the current date upon restoration. This also prevents files restored from backup from being unnecessarily included in incremental backups. (PPPM-6333, PPPM-10282)
  • Fixed the issue where the Log Browser extension’s database would keep growing indefinitely. (EXTPLESK-5717)
  • Fixed the issue where the subscription creation progress drawer was malformed when creating a subscription with a long name.(UILIB-1535)

  • Fixed the issue where clicking a DNS record of a domain alias to edit it resulted in the “500 Error Call to a member function setOption() on false Type Error Message Call to a member function setOption() on false File Https.php Line 60” error. (PPPM-14633)
  • Disabled and suspended websites are no longer counted when calculating IP addresses’ usage statistics. (PPPM-14608)
  • Fixed the issue where configuring FTP storage on a Microsoft FTP server failed with the “Unable to upload the file to the storage” error if FTPS was enabled. (PPP-66466, PPP-66468)

Linux

  • Fixed the issue where, in the Log Browser extension interface, the “Processed” counter kept increasing for bounced emails even when they were no longer being processed by the Plesk mail server. (EXTPLESK-5791)
  • Fixed the issue where, on AlmaLinux 9 servers, disabling PHP for a domain switched the domain’s PHP handler to the php-fpm used by Plesk instead of disabling PHP support completely. (PPP-66389)
  • Fixed the issue where emails containing certain characters could not be sent if the “Limitations on outgoing email messages” feature was enabled in Plesk. (PPPM-14624)
  • Fixed the issue where, under specific circumstances, log rotation could fail due to the incorrect umask settings. (PPPM-14621)
  • Fixed the issue where, after a failed domain name change attempt, certain services for the website were no longer operational. (PPPM-14571)
  • Fixed the issue where, after changing the default mailbox size for a subscription, the mailboxes owned by the subscription whose size was customized would have their size changed to the new default value if it was greater than the specified custom mailbox size. (PPPM-14557)
  • Fixed the issue where installing an additional license key not associated with any Plesk license key via Tools & Settings > License information > Install Key would fail with the “Parent key not provided (Error code: 2)” error. (PPPM-14527)
  • Fixed the issue where sending mail via the sendmail utility could fail during periods of high write load on the database server. (PPPM-14464)
  • Fixed the issue where, when being logged in to the Plesk graphical interface via port 443, changing any ModSecurity settings would result in the operation hanging indefinitely and failing to finish. (PPPM-14448)
  • Fixed the issue where, on CentOS 7 servers with Plesk installed, running the plesk sbin fsmng –check-plesk-packages command could produce unnecessary and misleading errors related to certain installed packages. (PPPM-14586)
  • Fixed the issue where running the CentOS 7 to AlmaLinux 8 conversion tool (centos2alma) on a server with curl 8 installed would result in a failure during the preupgrade stage, and also in yum and dnf being unable to run. (PAUX-6474)
  • Fixed the issue where running the CentOS 7 to AlmaLinux 8 conversion tool (centos2alma) or the CloudLinux 7 to CloudLinux 8 conversion tool (cloudlinux7to8) would result in a failure to adopt repositories under specific circumstances. (PAUX-6470)
  • Fixed the issue where it was not possible to install IonCube PHP Loader via the Plesk graphical interface. (PPPM-14640)
  • Fixed the issue where, on Debian 11 servers with Plesk installed, signing up to a Mailman 3 mail list using a Google Mail email account (*@gmail.com) would not result in the signup email being delivered to the *@gmail.com mailbox. (PPPM-14619)

Windows

  • Fixed the issue where, under specific circumstances, operations on Microsoft SQL databases could hang indefinitely while consuming large amounts of RAM. (PPPM-14607)
  • Fixed the issue where, under specific circumstances, an invalid backup could be created with no errors, but could not be restored from. (PPPM-14605)
  • Unnecessary utility calls are no longer logged to the php_error.log when a subscription is suspended or activated. (PPPM-14583)
  • Fixed the issue where running the plesk repair mssql command would not restore Microsoft SQL database users present in Plesk, but missing from the Microsoft SQL database server. (PPPM-14431)

Plesk Obsidian 18.0.64

17 September 2024

What’s New?

  • We are excited to announce the launch of our updated “What’s New” page for Plesk! The page highlights the key features and major benefits of Plesk Obsidian helping you to gain a deeper understanding of our product. Explore it now at What’s New in Plesk Obsidian.
  • As per UserVoice request, it is now possible to configure a smarthost or relayhost in Plesk on the server level. For details, refer to the following topic.
  • (Plesk for Linux) MariaDB 11.4 is now supported. It is the latest “long-term support” version from the vendor.
  • (Plesk for Linux) The Website Log Check feature will be gradually rolled out to all Plesk Obsidian installations version 18.0.64 and later. The feature helps to troubleshoot a website’s availability issues by scanning the web server logs for common issues and suggesting ways to resolve them. Learn more about Website Log Check.
  • The new customizable Home dashboard in Service Provider View is now enabled by default on all Plesk Obsidian servers. It helps you to keep track of your server and your business by adding, removing, and rearranging informational blocks showing all sorts of data. To disable the feature, add the following lines to the panel.ini file:

navigation newHomeView.enabled = false

  • As per UserVoice request, to the Docker extension, added support for AlmaLinux 9 and support for websocket traffic on Docker Proxy Rules.

  • Improved the dist-upgrade procedure and migration:

  • From Plesk on Ubuntu 20 by introducing PHP 7.3 provided by Plesk.

  • From Plesk on Ubuntu 22 by introducing PHP 7.0 provided by Plesk.

  • From Plesk on Debian 11 by introducing PHP 7.2 provided by Plesk.

Websites after migration or dist-upgrade now seamlessly adopt a new PHP version without additional manual patches.

Note: PHP versions 7.0 - 7.3 are outdated and no longer supported by the vendor (PHP Group), so they will receive no security updates. We recommend that you use these old PHP versions only for the dist-upgrade or migration purposes, and then switch to a newer supported PHP version.

  • With the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.64, Kaspersky Anti-Virus for Servers will be automatically removed from the servers it is installed on. We recommend that you migrate to Sophos Anti-Virus for Servers. It is fully integrated with Plesk for both Linux and Windows, and also included in Power Pack and Hosting Pack.
  • The CloudLinux team extended the Imunify360 extension with the improved ImunifyAV/AV+ and renamed the Imunify360 extension to Imunify. Existing users of the free and paid ImunifyAV extension (the revisium-antivirus ID) can upgrade to the new ImunifyAV/AV+ at no additional cost. Learn more about benefits of the revamped Imunify and how to upgrade to it.

Feature Improvements

  • The Plesk Repair feature in the UI can now fix MariaDB/MySQL server permissions.

  • Revamped the Disk Space section in the Repair Kit extension:

  • Disk and Plesk directories are now shown in the Disk Space section.

  • Warnings and alerts are now shown only for disks that contain the directories mentioned above.

  • Added a message with general recommendations on what to do if the disk space is not sufficient.

  • Improved the Track Email Delivery feature in Websites & Domains > domain > the “Mail” tab. If there are one or more delayed emails in the queue, an orange circle is now shown next to the “Mail” tab name.

To disable this feature, add the following lines to the panel.ini file:

ext-log-browser showEmailBadge = false

  • As per UserVoice request, in the Plesk DNSSEC extension, introduced CLI commands to sign, unsign, and show the current settings of a DNS zone. See the examples of use below:

  • To sign a domain with default settings:

plesk ext dnssec sign –domain-name example.com

  • To view DNSSEC information for a domain:

plesk ext dnssec info –domain-name example.com

  • To unsign a domain:

plesk ext dnssec unsign –domain-name example.com

  • Added the following options to the ModSecurity CLI: -waf-rule-filter-ids, -waf-filter-by-tags, -waf-filter-by-regexp, and -waf-additional-settings. For details, see the CLI guides for Linux and Windows.
  • Unified and updated the messages shown when Plesk license limits are reached. The messages about upgrading a Plesk license to a higher version are now more helpful, clear, and informative.
  • The Node.js Toolkit now supports JavaScript modules (MJS files).
  • It is now possible to use the “Forgot password” feature via the CLI: the plesk bin admin –send-reset-link command with the -user or -email options generates a password reset link for the specified user and sends it via email.

Future Plans

  • Starting from Plesk Obsidian 18.0.65, the ImunifyAV extension will be removed from the Recommended and Full presets. Instead, the Imunify extension (former Imunify360) will be installed by default on all new Plesk installations. If, for some reason, you want to disable the extension, add the following lines to the panel.ini file:

extensions blacklist = imunify360

6 August 2024

What’s New?

  • (Plesk for Linux) We are glad to present the “InnoDB repair” tool you can use to check for and attempt to automatically fix InnoDB corruption in MariaDB databases. InnoDB corruption is a serious issue, preventing the database server from working properly. Fixing it by hand requires time and expertise.

You can access the tool by browsing https://:8443/repair/ and authenticating with the Plesk administrator credentials.

  • Re-worked the “Mail Queue” menu to make it easier to track the status of messages and identify and resolve issues.

To enable this feature, add the following lines to the panel.ini file:

ext-log-browser mailQueue.serverWide = true

  • If you plan to use a domain for mail hosting only, you can now select the new “Mail Hosting” option in the “Add Domain” wizard.
  • We are glad to present a tool to convert your CloudLinux 7 servers to CloudLinux 8! The ready to use CLI tool is available in our GitHub repository.
  • Plesk Obsidian on Ubuntu 20.04, AlmaLinux 8, and AlmaLinux 9 now comes with PHP 7.0 support. PHP 7.0 can be installed via Plesk Installer.

This should make updating servers running an earlier OS version smoother. However, keep in mind that PHP 7.0 is outdated, and no longer receives security updates. We recommend updating web applications that require PHP 7.0 to use up-to-date PHP versions.

  • You can now resell Sitejet Commerce. To do so, add the following lines to the panel.ini file:

ext-plesk-sitejet commerceEnabled=true commerceBuyUrl=https://example.com/link-to-the-commerce-product-in-your-store

  • Implemented a feature in Sitejet that enables users to seamlessly substitute a missing logo with text (and switch back to a logo if necessary).
  • The Hungarian language is now available for the Sitejet Website Builder interface
  • New Sitejet website template: Eco-Con.
  • New Sitejet website template: WePaint.

Feature Improvements

  • On Plesk Obsidian servers with a custom DNS backend enabled, Plesk now sends the following messages to the custom integration script:

  • A “create” message when a domain is created.

  • A “delete” message when a domain is removed.

  • An “update” message when a domain is suspended, disabled, or enabled, or when a domain’s DNS service is enabled or disabled, or when the Plesk DNS service for a domain is switched from primary to secondary, or vice versa.

To enable this feature, add the following lines to the panel.ini file:

dns newEvents = true

  • Added a tooltip to the domain-level “Track Email Delivery” pages explaining why it is not possible to resend or remove sent, rejected, and bounced emails.
  • Added a tooltip to the domain-level “Track Email Delivery” pages advising to select one or more deferred emails when attempting to click Resend with no deferred emails selected.
  • The support for DNS HTTPS records is now enabled by default on all Plesk Obsidian servers.
  • The pre-configured firewall rules in Plesk cloud images were updated to enable HTTP/3 to work out of the box.
  • The “CPU usage” and “Memory usage” informational blocks on the new Home dashboard no longer take a long time to load the data. In addition, the “Memory usage” informational block now shows the total amount of RAM on the server.
  • The Performance Booster extension now regularly checks the current database server settings and notifies the Plesk administrator when a noticeable improvement in performance can be achieved by applying the recommended settings.
  • Increased the size of the input window when creating a “Fetch a URL” type scheduled task to make working with a long URL more convenient.
  • It is now possible to manually configure the maximum age of mail log entries to be processed by the Log Browser extension (in seconds). To do so, add the following lines to the panel.ini file:

ext-log-browser mailQueue.firstEntryOffset = <value in seconds>

Linux

  • The Fail2ban bad bots list has been updated.
  • Added the ability to manually add IP addresses to the Fail2ban banned IP addresses list, both temporarily and permanently.
  • Pseudo-devices with constant 100% disk usage (such as /dev/loop devices) are no longer shown in Tools & Settings > Server Information to avoid unnecessary confusion.
  • Added support for the Atomic ModSecurity rule sets in Plesk on AlmaLinux 9.

Future Plans

  • Kaspersky Anti-Virus for Servers has been deprecated and is no longer available for installation. Starting from Plesk Obsidian 18.0.64, the extension will be automatically removed from the servers it is installed on. For details and recommended actions, see the Feature and Deprecation Plan and the deprecation FAQ.

Plesk Obsidian 18.0.62

25 June 2024

What’s New?

  • Introducing the Extended Lifecycle Support (ELS) program designed to give you more time and a peace of mind before migrating your Plesk server from an EOL operating system to a supported one. This program will run:

  • CentOS 7 & CloudLinux 7 – until January 1, 2026 (vendor EOL date - June 2, 2024)

  • Ubuntu 18.04 & Debian 10 – until July 1, 2025 (vendor EOL dates - September 2024 for Ubuntu 18.04, June 2, 2024 for Debian 10)

Plesk will continue releasing updates and providing technical support for these OSes beyond the vendor EOL dates, until the dates specified. Supporting EOL OSes incurs additional development and maintenance costs, and so taking advantage of this offer will cost extra. We strongly recommend migrating or dist-upgrading to supported OSes.

  • We are happy to introduce the new 1.8.0 version of the Log Browser extension. In the new version, Plesk customers (as well as Plesk administrators) can track email delivery and manage deferred emails right in the domain card (under the “Mail” tab).

The feature is available only in Plesk for Linux (except for Ubuntu 24.04) with Postfix used as an MTA.

We will gradually enable the feature on Plesk servers starting from June 24, 2024. You can enable the feature manually in advance by adding the following lines to the panel.ini file:

ext-log-browser mailQueue.customerAccess = true By default, information about emails with the “Rejected” status is removed from the extension’s database after 48 hours to prevent rapid growth of the database. If you need to set another period for storing this information, you can always add the following lines to the panel.ini file:

ext-log-browser mailQueue.rejectedRemovalPeriod = 172800 ; in seconds Note: The feature works on top of the journald service and follows the server-wide log configuration. If the logs are rotated or removed, information about the emails will also be unavailable. Processing the logs for the first time may consume extra server resources. Afterward, the extension will process only changed data every hour.

  • Plesk is now fully compatible with the security.txt standard, which defines the way both independent security researchers and your clients can get in touch with you about security concerns and vulnerabilities they have found in Plesk domains.

With the new Native security.txt compliance extension, you can generate one common security.txt file for all domains hosted on your Plesk server. Once you generate the file and enable the feature, Plesk will continuously maintain it. Learn how to enable the feature and generate the file in our documentation.

Note: In case you need more flexibility in configuring the file’s content, you can use the extension created by LJPc solutions.

  • Added the new tile blocks and improvements to our New Home Dashboard:

  • Added the SSL It! block that contains the consolidated status of certificates on your Plesk server to help you avoid their sudden expiration.

  • Added the block for the “Advisor” extension that helps you monitor the state of your Plesk server.

  • Added support for HTTPS DNS records as an alternative to CNAME records. For example, you can use HTTPS records for naked domains, for which CNAME records are not supported.

The feature can be managed in the Plesk user interface, using the plesk bin dns CLI commands, or using API requests.

In Plesk Obsidian 18.0.62, the feature is disabled by default. You can manually enable it by adding the following lines to the panel.ini file:

dns records.https.enabled = true

Linux

  • Added an ability to install and remove PHP 5.6 from Plesk servers running on AlmaLinux 8 and 9 via Plesk Installer. That way you do not have to switch websites running on PHP 5.6 to a supported PHP version before the migration and thus avoid possible errors.

Note: PHP 5.6 is EOL and does not receive important security fixes. We do recommend that you switch your websites to a supported PHP version after migration.

Feature Improvements

  • Navigation between most-used pages in Plesk has become 3 times faster.

  • On the “Serverwide” tab of Performance Booster, it is now possible to apply one or several database server improvements instead of applying them all together.

  • Introduced the following improvements to the SFTP Backup extension:

  • Added the ability to use the Ed25519 public-key authentication and custom SSH keys.

  • Added the ability to update SSH keys.

  • Starting from Plesk Obsidian 18.0.62, requests to REST API containing the Content-Type header with a media-type directive other than “application/json” will result in the HTTP “415 Unsupported Media Type” client error response code. Since the curl commands send the “Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded” header by default, you need to add the –header “Content-Type: application/json” option to such commands to keep them working correctly.

We strongly recommend that you check your existing integrations that use cURL for compliance with this change and update them if necessary. Failure to do so may result in any such integrations ceasing to work after updating to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.62.

Windows

  • Added the Log Browser extension to the Recommended and Full presets.

Fixed Product Issues

  • Fixed the following issues in the Multi-Factor Authentication extension:

  • The extension once again correctly remembers a device and no longer asks for authentication if the “Remember this device for 30 days” checkbox was selected before. (EXTPLESK-5556)

  • The plesk ext mfa config info CLI command now works with accounts of additional administrators and SMB users. (EXTPLESK-5559)

  • Fixed the issue where the “Spam filter sensitivity” field in the domain email’s settings was empty if the “0” value was specified during creation of the email address. (PPPM-14470)

  • Customers no longer can change the hosting type of their subscriptions without corresponding permissions. (PPPM-14466)

  • Switching between views in Plesk on mobile devices once again works correctly. (PPPM-14450)

  • Resellers can once again create custom buttons. (PPPM-14441)

  • Changing the admin user’s password is once again properly logged. (PPPM-14428)

  • Calculating statistics of a domain’s database with the dash symbol in its name no longer fails with an error. (PPPM-14420)

  • Wappspector no longer creates a clickable WP Toolkit icon for a domain, whose service plan has the WP Toolkit permissions disabled. (PPPM-14347)

  • Fixed the issue where the Log Browser extension was logging the “PHP Warning: Undefined array key “Extension Version” error by mistake under specific circumstances. (EXTPLESK-5376)

  • Resellers can once again create hosting of domains. Previously the issue occurred because the “Username” field on the “Hosting Settings” page of a domain became unavailable if the “Customers can change the name of their system users” option was set to “Never”. (PPPM-14468)

Linux

  • When an email template is used in Mailman 3, emails are once again delivered to email addresses from a mailing list. (PPPM-14370)
  • Updating the GeoIP data has become more safe because the old data will now be used if any errors occur during the update. (PPPM-14454)
  • When the email sender’s address contains the < and/or > symbols, it is once again displayed correctly in the “From” field of a forwarded email. (PPPM-14438)
  • We increased the limit of text that one can paste in SSH Terminal from 512 bytes to 4 kilobytes so that this no longer breaks the connection. (PPPM-14422)
  • In Plesk on AlmaLinux 9, the /var/log/maillog log file is no longer rotated to prevent collecting incorrect statistics. (PPPM-14415)
  • If a sub-directory is protected with its own password and Apache is disabled for the domain, it is no longer possible to access that sub-directory using the password for the parent directory. (PPPM-14410)
  • The removed old IP address of a Plesk server is no longer restored in the /etc/hosts file after assigning a new IP address and changing the hostname. (PPPM-14405)
  • To prevent overuse of server resources, the number of concurrent sw-engine requests when opening the “Domains” page is limited to 12. (PPPM-14400)
  • Fixed incorrect logging of DNS-related events under specific circumstances. (PPPM-14342)
  • The Plesk repair utility once again warns if the last Plesk upgrade has failed for some reason. (PPPM-14177)

Windows

  • The same permissions are once again assigned to the \MySQL\my.ini file both when a custom or default path for storing user data is specified during the Plesk installation. (PPPM-14460)
  • Fixed the issue where it was impossible to secure a domain using the SSL/TLS certificate if the MailEnable service was running under a user account with insufficient privileges. (PPPM-14458)

Supporting EOL OSes incurs additional development and maintenance costs, and so taking advantage of this offer will cost extra. We strongly recommend migrating or dist-upgrading to supported OSes.

  • We are happy to introduce the new 1.8.0 version of the Log Browser extension. In the new version, Plesk customers (as well as Plesk administrators) can track email delivery and manage deferred emails right in the domain card (under the “Mail” tab).

The feature is available only in Plesk for Linux (except for Ubuntu 24.04) with Postfix used as an MTA.

We will gradually enable the feature on Plesk servers starting from June 24, 2024. You can enable the feature manually in advance by adding the following lines to the panel.ini file:

ext-log-browser mailQueue.customerAccess = true By default, information about emails with the “Rejected” status is removed from the extension’s database after 48 hours to prevent rapid growth of the database. If you need to set another period for storing this information, you can always add the following lines to the panel.ini file:

ext-log-browser mailQueue.rejectedRemovalPeriod = 172800 ; in seconds Note: The feature works on top of the journald service and follows the server-wide log configuration. If the logs are rotated or removed, information about the emails will also be unavailable. Processing the logs for the first time may consume extra server resources. Afterward, the extension will process only changed data every hour.

  • Plesk is now fully compatible with the security.txt standard, which defines the way both independent security researchers and your clients can get in touch with you about security concerns and vulnerabilities they have found in Plesk domains.

With the new Native security.txt compliance extension, you can generate one common security.txt file for all domains hosted on your Plesk server. Once you generate the file and enable the feature, Plesk will continuously maintain it. Learn how to enable the feature and generate the file in our documentation.

Note: In case you need more flexibility in configuring the file’s content, you can use the extension created by LJPc solutions.

  • Added the new tile blocks and improvements to our New Home Dashboard:

  • Added the SSL It! block that contains the consolidated status of certificates on your Plesk server to help you avoid their sudden expiration.

  • Added the block for the “Advisor” extension that helps you monitor the state of your Plesk server.

  • Added support for HTTPS DNS records as an alternative to CNAME records. For example, you can use HTTPS records for naked domains, for which CNAME records are not supported.

The feature can be managed in the Plesk user interface, using the plesk bin dns CLI commands, or using API requests.

In Plesk Obsidian 18.0.62, the feature is disabled by default. You can manually enable it by adding the following lines to the panel.ini file:

dns records.https.enabled = true

Linux

  • Added an ability to install and remove PHP 5.6 from Plesk servers running on AlmaLinux 8 and 9 via Plesk Installer. That way you do not have to switch websites running on PHP 5.6 to a supported PHP version before the migration and thus avoid possible errors.

Note: PHP 5.6 is EOL and does not receive important security fixes. We do recommend that you switch your websites to a supported PHP version after migration.

Feature Improvements

  • Navigation between most-used pages in Plesk has become 3 times faster.

  • On the “Serverwide” tab of Performance Booster, it is now possible to apply one or several database server improvements instead of applying them all together.

  • Introduced the following improvements to the SFTP Backup extension:

  • Added the ability to use the Ed25519 public-key authentication and custom SSH keys.

  • Added the ability to update SSH keys.

  • Starting from Plesk Obsidian 18.0.62, requests to REST API containing the Content-Type header with a media-type directive other than “application/json” will result in the HTTP “415 Unsupported Media Type” client error response code. Since the curl commands send the “Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded” header by default, you need to add the –header “Content-Type: application/json” option to such commands to keep them working correctly.

We strongly recommend that you check your existing integrations that use cURL for compliance with this change and update them if necessary. Failure to do so may result in any such integrations ceasing to work after updating to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.62.

Windows

  • Added the Log Browser extension to the Recommended and Full presets.

Fixed Product Issues

  • To prevent overuse of server resources, the number of concurrent sw-engine requests when opening the “Domains” page is limited to 12. (PPPM-14400)
  • Fixed incorrect logging of DNS-related events under specific circumstances. (PPPM-14342)
  • The Plesk repair utility once again warns if the last Plesk upgrade has failed for some reason. (PPPM-14177)

WP Toolkit 6.4.0

11 June 2024

  • Introducing Vulnerability Protection: a new security feature for WordPress websites provided as a part of WP Guardian offer. Vulnerability protection is a non-invasive, automated, lightweight way to neutralize vulnerabilities in WordPress plugins, themes, and WordPress core. Once enabled on a site, vulnerability protection neutralizes high and medium risk vulnerabilities automatically whenever they appear without any need for user engagement.

  • A WordPress plugin will be installed when protection is enabled to automatically neutralize dangerous vulnerabilities by applying special protection rules.

  • Protection rules work like a firewall, so they never touch or modify the site code.

  • Protection rules are applied and removed only for specific vulnerabilities on any given site, so they have minimal effect on site performance.

  • This feature and its corresponding upsell prompts are not visible to control panel users by default. Only the server administrator can see it.

  • You can control the access to this feature via separate limit in your Service Plans.

  • Vulnerability protection is a part of the security suite provided by WP Guardian platform. It requires purchasing a separate license called WP Guardian (Plesk addon).

  • WP Guardian (Plesk addon) is an upgraded version of WP Toolkit Deluxe bundle, combining all previous Deluxe features with Vulnerability Protection (and with more features to be included in the future).

  • The technical name of this feature is virtual patching, and it’s powered by Patchstack. Protection rules (also known as virtual patches) are released for high-to-medium-risk vulnerabilities present in Patchstack vulnerability database

  • CVSS rating used for ranking and sorting vulnerabilities was replaced with Risk rank

  • Risk rank is an aggregate rating of vulnerability impact based on CVSS rating, EPSS rating, Patchstack Patch Priority and other factors

  • Vulnerability filtering feature was changed from specifying a CVSS score threshold to a simple knob for ignoring low-risk vulnerabilities

  • Low-risk vulnerabilities are now ignored by default on all websites after the upgrade to WP Toolkit v6.4

  • Added the ability to change the destination of “Hire a developer” link or hide it completely in global WP Toolkit Settings

  • Must-use plugins are now correctly displayed in the list of plugins with corresponding tags

  • WP Toolkit no longer stops working with Initial data load error: some required fields are not provided error in some rare cases. (EXTWPTOOLK-11652)

  • Certain WP Toolkit processes no longer hang indefinitely if they cannot be finished for some reason. (EXTWPTOOLK-10647)

11 June 2024

  • Introducing Vulnerability Protection: a new security feature for WordPress websites provided as a part of WP Guardian offer. Vulnerability protection is a non-invasive, automated, lightweight way to neutralize vulnerabilities in WordPress plugins, themes, and WordPress core. Once enabled on a site, vulnerability protection neutralizes high and medium risk vulnerabilities automatically whenever they appear without any need for user engagement.

  • A WordPress plugin will be installed when protection is enabled to automatically neutralize dangerous vulnerabilities by applying special protection rules.

  • Protection rules work like a firewall, so they never touch or modify the site code.

  • Protection rules are applied and removed only for specific vulnerabilities on any given site, so they have minimal effect on site performance.

  • This feature and its corresponding upsell prompts are not visible to control panel users by default. Only the server administrator can see it.

  • You can control the access to this feature via separate limit in your Service Plans.

  • Vulnerability protection is a part of the security suite provided by WP Guardian platform. It requires purchasing a separate license called WP Guardian (Plesk addon).

  • WP Guardian (Plesk addon) is an upgraded version of WP Toolkit Deluxe bundle, combining all previous Deluxe features with Vulnerability Protection (and with more features to be included in the future).

  • The technical name of this feature is virtual patching, and it’s powered by Patchstack. Protection rules (also known as virtual patches) are released for high-to-medium-risk vulnerabilities present in Patchstack vulnerability database

  • CVSS rating used for ranking and sorting vulnerabilities was replaced with Risk rank

  • Risk rank is an aggregate rating of vulnerability impact based on CVSS rating, EPSS rating, Patchstack Patch Priority and other factors

  • Vulnerability filtering feature was changed from specifying a CVSS score threshold to a simple knob for ignoring low-risk vulnerabilities

  • Low-risk vulnerabilities are now ignored by default on all websites after the upgrade to WP Toolkit v6.4

  • Added the ability to change the destination of “Hire a developer” link or hide it completely in global WP Toolkit Settings

  • Must-use plugins are now correctly displayed in the list of plugins with corresponding tags

  • WP Toolkit no longer stops working with Initial data load error: some required fields are not provided error in some rare cases. (EXTWPTOOLK-11652)

  • Certain WP Toolkit processes no longer hang indefinitely if they cannot be finished for some reason. (EXTWPTOOLK-10647)

What’s New?

  • (Plesk for Linux) Ubuntu 24.04 is now supported on x86-64 architecture, with certain limitations. Learn more about the Ubuntu 24.04 support limitations.

ARM-based servers are not supported at the moment.

  • (Plesk for Linux) HTTP/3 (nginx) is now supported for hosted websites. Learn more about HTTP/3 support in Plesk.

Note: HTTP/3 is not supported on CentOS 7 and Ubuntu 18.

  • We are glad to announce the new Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) extension, coming to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.61 and later. The new extension is meant to offer seamless 2FA authentication to all Plesk users, and comes with the following benefits:

  • Multi-factor authentication can now be configured in the profile settings for users of all levels (administrators, additional administrators, resellers, customers, and subscription users).

  • Plesk administrators can now make multi-factor authentication mandatory for all Plesk users on a server. Learn more about making multi-factor authentication mandatory.

  • The Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) extension is added to the Recommended preset.

  • We are glad to announce the fully revamped, customizable Home dashboard in Service Provider View. Keep track of your server and your business by adding, removing, and rearranging informational blocks showing all sorts of data. At the moment, the following blocks are available:

  • Plesk version - Plesk version and information about any available updates.

  • Server Information - Server hostname, IP address, OS, and uptime.

  • Last server backup - The status of server backup and backup schedule.

  • Performance Booster - Available server and website performance optimizations.

  • What’s New - Latest entries from the Plesk changelog.

  • IP Address Banning - The status of the Fail2Ban service.

  • Mail Queue - The status of the email queue (Postfix only).

  • Promo - Information about possible customizations and additional features.

  • CPU usage - Daily CPU usage information.

  • Memory usage - Daily memory usage information.

  • Subscriptions with overuse - The list of subscriptions with resource overuse.

  • My subscription - Subscriptions owned by the administrator.

  • Custom Buttons - display custom buttons added by the administrator.

The feature is currently in beta. To enable it, add the following lines to the panel.ini file:

navigation newHomeView.enabled = true We would love to hear your feedback about the new Home page at [email protected].

  • The WordPress single-site management operations from WP Toolkit are now fully integrated into the Dynamic list and shown by default for WordPress websites. If you want to continue managing your WordPress websites from WP Toolkit, you can disable this feature by adding the following lines to the panel.ini file:

ext-wp-toolkit appModeFeature = off

  • (Plesk for Windows) It is now possible to in-place upgrade Windows Server 2012 R2 servers running Plesk to Windows Server 2019. Learn more about in-place upgrading Windows Server 2012 R2 servers.

Feature Improvements

  • Added the ability to manage the settings of scheduled backups (both server-wide and at the subscription level) via the CLI. Learn more about managing scheduled backups via the CLI.
  • Added the ability to manage the settings of scheduled tasks (both server-wide and at the subscription level) via the CLI.
  • Added PHP 8.3 to the Recommended preset. Also, removed PHP 8.1 from the Recommended preset.
  • Improved error reporting in certain places of the Plesk GUI. Now, when there is an error, the browser screen is automatically scrolled to the top of the page, where a more detailed informational message is shown instead of a generic “Internal server error” one.

Future Plans

  • Starting from Plesk Obsidian 18.0.62, requests to REST API containing the Content-Type header with a media-type directive other than “application/json” will result in the HTTP “415 Unsupported Media Type” client error response code. Since the curl commands send the “Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded” header by default, you need to add the –header “Content-Type: application/json” option to such commands to keep them working correctly.

We strongly recommend that you check your existing integrations that use cURL for compliance with this change and update them if necessary. Failure to do so may result in any such integrations ceasing to work after updating to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.62.

  • Introducing Extended Lifecycle Support (ELS). We understand that migrating to a new operating system can be a complex process. To give you more time and a peace of mind, we’re introducing the Extended Lifecycle Support (ELS) program. This program will run:

  • CentOS 7 & CloudLinux 7 – until January 1, 2026 (vendor EOL date - June 2, 2024)

  • Ubuntu 18.04 & Debian 10 – until July 1, 2025 (vendor EOL dates - September 2024 for Ubuntu 18.04, June 2, 2024 for Debian 10)

Plesk will continue releasing updates and providing technical support for these OSes beyond the vendor EOL dates, until the dates specified. Supporting EOL OSes incurs additional development and maintenance costs, and so taking advantage of this offer will cost extra. We strongly recommend migrating or dist-upgrading to supported OSes.

Fixed Product Issues

  • Fixed the issue where Plesk installation failed if an RDS Aurora MySQL instance was specified as the Plesk database server. (PPPM-14354)
  • Fixed the issue where updating Plesk on a server hosting a large number of websites produced an unnecessary and misleading “Nginx has not restarted during upgrade due to failure of configuration test” warning. (PPP-64510)
  • Fixed the issue where a custom Plesk installation produced an unnecessary and misleading “Failed to restart mailman3.service: Unit mailman3.service not found.” warning in the installer log file. (PPPM-14377)
  • Fixed the issue where restoring individual objects (for example, files) from a backup resulted in old cronjobs being restored as well. (PPPM-14387)
  • Fixed the issue where running the plesk repair web command did not restore the PHP-FPM configuration. (PPP-64844)
  • Fixed the issue where renaming subscription system users and additional FTP users could sometimes fail with the “user xxx is currently used by process xxxxx” error. (PPPM-10717)
  • Fixed the issue where, after renaming a subscription’s system user failed, the domain’s PHP FPM handler’s pool became corrupted, and no new domains using the same PHP handler could be created. (PPP-63258)
  • Fixed the issue where .NET applications failed to work if SELinux was enabled on the server. (PPPM-14378)

Windows

  • Fixed the issue where accessing a symlink in File Manager resulted in the “Unable to open the directory: Symlinks out of webspace are prohibited” error. (PPPM-14399)
  • Fixed the issue where the custom “open_basedir” value failed to take effect for websites with a custom document root. (PPPM-14390)

  • Fixed the issue where, after renaming a subscription’s system user failed, the domain’s PHP FPM handler’s pool became corrupted, and no new domains using the same PHP handler could be created. (PPP-63258)
  • Fixed the issue where .NET applications failed to work if SELinux was enabled on the server. (PPPM-14378)

Windows

  • Fixed the issue where accessing a symlink in File Manager resulted in the “Unable to open the directory: Symlinks out of webspace are prohibited” error. (PPPM-14399)

ARM-based servers are not supported at the moment.

  • (Plesk for Linux) HTTP/3 (nginx) is now supported for hosted websites. Learn more about HTTP/3 support in Plesk.

Note: HTTP/3 is not supported on CentOS 7 and Ubuntu 18.

  • We are glad to announce the new Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) extension, coming to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.61 and later. The new extension is meant to offer seamless 2FA authentication to all Plesk users, and comes with the following benefits:

  • Multi-factor authentication can now be configured in the profile settings for users of all levels (administrators, additional administrators, resellers, customers, and subscription users).

  • Plesk administrators can now make multi-factor authentication mandatory for all Plesk users on a server. Learn more about making multi-factor authentication mandatory.

  • The Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) extension is added to the Recommended preset.

  • We are glad to announce the fully revamped, customizable Home dashboard in Service Provider View. Keep track of your server and your business by adding, removing, and rearranging informational blocks showing all sorts of data. At the moment, the following blocks are available:

  • Plesk version - Plesk version and information about any available updates.

  • Server Information - Server hostname, IP address, OS, and uptime.

  • Last server backup - The status of server backup and backup schedule.

  • Performance Booster - Available server and website performance optimizations.

  • What’s New - Latest entries from the Plesk changelog.

  • IP Address Banning - The status of the Fail2Ban service.

  • Mail Queue - The status of the email queue (Postfix only).

  • Promo - Information about possible customizations and additional features.

  • CPU usage - Daily CPU usage information.

  • Memory usage - Daily memory usage information.

  • Subscriptions with overuse - The list of subscriptions with resource overuse.

  • My subscription - Subscriptions owned by the administrator.

  • Custom Buttons - display custom buttons added by the administrator.

The feature is currently in beta. To enable it, add the following lines to the panel.ini file:

navigation newHomeView.enabled = true We would love to hear your feedback about the new Home page at [email protected].

  • The WordPress single-site management operations from WP Toolkit are now fully integrated into the Dynamic list and shown by default for WordPress websites. If you want to continue managing your WordPress websites from WP Toolkit, you can disable this feature by adding the following lines to the panel.ini file:

ext-wp-toolkit appModeFeature = off

  • (Plesk for Windows) It is now possible to in-place upgrade Windows Server 2012 R2 servers running Plesk to Windows Server 2019. Learn more about in-place upgrading Windows Server 2012 R2 servers.

Feature Improvements

  • Added the ability to manage the settings of scheduled backups (both server-wide and at the subscription level) via the CLI. Learn more about managing scheduled backups via the CLI.
  • Added the ability to manage the settings of scheduled tasks (both server-wide and at the subscription level) via the CLI.
  • Added PHP 8.3 to the Recommended preset. Also, removed PHP 8.1 from the Recommended preset.
  • Improved error reporting in certain places of the Plesk GUI. Now, when there is an error, the browser screen is automatically scrolled to the top of the page, where a more detailed informational message is shown instead of a generic “Internal server error” one.

Future Plans

  • Starting from Plesk Obsidian 18.0.62, requests to REST API containing the Content-Type header with a media-type directive other than “application/json” will result in the HTTP “415 Unsupported Media Type” client error response code. Since the curl commands send the “Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded” header by default, you need to add the –header “Content-Type: application/json” option to such commands to keep them working correctly.

We strongly recommend that you check your existing integrations that use cURL for compliance with this change and update them if necessary. Failure to do so may result in any such integrations ceasing to work after updating to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.62.

  • Introducing Extended Lifecycle Support (ELS). We understand that migrating to a new operating system can be a complex process. To give you more time and a peace of mind, we’re introducing the Extended Lifecycle Support (ELS) program. This program will run:

  • CentOS 7 & CloudLinux 7 – until January 1, 2026 (vendor EOL date - June 2, 2024)

  • Ubuntu 18.04 & Debian 10 – until July 1, 2025 (vendor EOL dates - September 2024 for Ubuntu 18.04, June 2, 2024 for Debian 10)

Plesk will continue releasing updates and providing technical support for these OSes beyond the vendor EOL dates, until the dates specified. Supporting EOL OSes incurs additional development and maintenance costs, and so taking advantage of this offer will cost extra. We strongly recommend migrating or dist-upgrading to supported OSes.

Plesk Obsidian 18.0.60

2 April 2024

What’s New?

  • To help Plesk users comply with the NIS2 directive, and also to improve the security of Plesk in general, the NIS2 compliance mode makes a number of changes to what is logged to the Plesk Action Log. Learn more about NIS2 compliance mode.

To enable NIS2 compliance mode, add the following lines to the panel.ini file:

actionLog nis2compliant = true Once you have done so, the following changes take effect:

  • API requests are now logged to the Action Log. To also log API requests that only get information from Plesk and do not result in any changes being made, add the following line to the actionLog section:

api.includeImmutable = true

  • Changes to DNS records are now logged to the Action Log, including the specifics (such as what record was added or removed, or what changes were made to an existing record), as well as the GUID of the user who made the change.

  • Action Log is now included in Plesk backups if the “User files” checkbox is selected when creating a backup, and the “Exclude log files” one is not. Customer or reseller level backups only include information pertinent to that customer/reseller.

Action Log is stored in a separate file with the backup_action-log prefix. Learn how to extract files from a Plesk backup.

  • (Plesk for Linux) We are glad to announce that the ability to upgrade MariaDB database servers to the latest version in the LTS branch via the Plesk interface is no longer in beta! We thank everyone who tried the beta version for their participation and feedback.

To access this feature, go to Tools & Settings > Database Servers (under “Applications & Databases”), and then click Upgrade Now next to an eligible MariaDB database server.

The feature is being gradually rolled out to Plesk servers around the world. If you do not see the Upgrade Now button, you can enable the feature manually by adding the following lines to the panel.ini file:

databaseManagement features.canBeUpgraded = true

  • Plesk customers can now get access to Plesk Action Log events related to their subscriptions to monitor changes applied to them. The feature works only together with the Log Browser extension and will be enabled gradually after the release of Plesk Obsidian 18.0.60. The link to Action Log will appear in the right menu near the domain card.

We consider the feature to be a mandatory requirement for Plesk to comply with the NIS2 directive. According to the directive, customers must have an ability to monitor changes related to their domains.

To enable the feature before its official release in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.60, add the following lines to the panel.ini file:

actionLog actionLogForEndUsers = true Note: If you have already enabled the nis2complience setting in the panel.ini file, no need to enable actionLogForEndUsers as well. nis2complience enables all features related to compliance with the NIS2 directive.

  • Full-featured integration of WP Toolkit into Plesk Dynamic list is now available.

To enable this feature, add the following lines to the panel.ini file:

ext-wp-toolkit appModeFeature = on Once you have done so, most WP Toolkit features (except for mass management operations) become accessible directly from Dynamic list in Plesk without having to open WP Toolkit.

  • Added the “Get Started” tab to domain cards in Dynamic List view to make it easier for new users to build websites quickly. It offers many options for creating a website with just one click (like Sitejet, WordPress, Laravel, Node.js, and more). The tab appears when opening a newly created domain’s card for the first time, and remains accessible but nonintrusive once closed. The tab replaces both the previously available “Welcome” panel and the “Create website” button.
  • It is now possible to buy Plesk licenses straight from the DigitalOcean Marketplace interface and attach them to new and existing droplets.
  • With the new paid Sitejet Commerce feature that supports integration with Ecwid, you can now have an eCommerce store on your Sitejet-based website.
  • Sophos Anti-Virus for Servers can now be installed via Plesk Installer on both Plesk for Linux and Plesk for Windows servers. You can find it in the “Mail hosting” section in Plesk for Linux, and in the “Anti-Virus features” section in Plesk for Windows.
  • The latest 30 entries from the Plesk Obsidian changelog are now available in an RSS feed. You can find the feed here.

Feature Improvements

  • The “Scheduled Backups List” extension has been localized into 31 languages: Arabic, Catalan, Chinese Simplified, Chinese Traditional, Czech, Danish, Dutch, Filipino, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Hebrew, Hungarian, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Malay, Norwegian Bokmal, Polish, Portuguese, Portuguese, Brazilian, Romanian, Russian, Spanish, Swedish, Thai, Turkish, Ukrainian, and Vietnamese.
  • The Plesk interface and documentation now mention both MariaDB and MySQL where only MySQL was mentioned before.

Linux

  • Plesk now shows the exact amount of physical memory installed on the server. To access this information, go to Tools & Settings > Server Information (under “Server Management”), scroll down to “Memory Usage”, and look for the “Hardware” column.
  • When trying to update Plesk on a server that does not have enough free disk space, Plesk Installer automatically cleans up unnecessary temporary files, then tries again.
  • The “NTP Timesync” extension is now included in the “Recommended” preset.
  • A separate branch of the “NTP Timesync” extension was created so that the extension could still be installed on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.x. Future versions of the “NTP Timesync” extension’s main branch will no longer be compatible with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.x.
  • The “NTP Timesync” extension has been localized into 30 languages: Arabic, Catalan, Chinese Simplified, Chinese Traditional, Czech, Danish, Dutch, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Hebrew, Hungarian, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Norwegian Bokmal, Polish, Portuguese, Portuguese, Brazilian, Romanian, Russian, Spanish, Swedish, Thai, Turkish, Ukrainian, and Vietnamese.
  • Added a message in Tools & Settings > Mail Server Settings advising to set the value of the “Maximum message size” parameter to 135-140% of the maximum allowable attachment size.

Windows

  • It is now possible to install and use the Log Browser extension in Plesk for Windows. The extension also provides access to Action Log events for customers the same way it is done in Plesk for Linux.

Future Plans

  • (For developers of extensions) Starting from Plesk Obsidian 18.0.61, we plan to switch PHP used by Plesk to PHP 8.3. If you are running any custom extensions, you will need to update them to support PHP 8.3 to avoid potential issues.

You can install Plesk Obsidian 18.0.60 running on PHP 8.3 for testing purposes only by running the following command:

wget https://autoinstall.plesk.com/plesk-installer && bash ./plesk-installer install plesk 18.0.60 –source http://autoinstall.plesk.com/plesk-php8.3

  • Starting from Plesk Obsidian 18.0.62, requests to REST API containing the Content-Type header with a media-type directive other than “application/json” will result in the HTTP “415 Unsupported Media Type” client error response code. Since the curl commands send the “Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded” header by default, you need to add the –header “Content-Type: application/json” option to such commands to keep them working correctly.

Deprecated and Removed Items

  • Starting from Plesk Obsidian 18.0.60, the ability to use Active List view will be removed. All customers will be automatically switched to Dynamic List view.

Windows

  • Starting from Plesk Obsidian for Windows 18.0.60, it will no longer be possible to install the BIND DNS server, or to select it as the default DNS server in Tools & Settings > Server Components. Our support team will also no longer provide answers to questions related to the BIND DNS server in Plesk for Windows.

We strongly recommend that you switch to Microsoft DNS.

Fixed Product Issues

  • Installing the “NTP Timesync” Plesk extension now correctly results in the Network Time Synchronization button appearing in the Tools & Settings menu (under “Tools & Resources”). (EXTPLESK-2112)
  • Fixed the issue where removing a subscription with one or more backups in remote storage and then restoring only the subscription resulted in the backup file(s) being transferred to the server’s file system, but those backups could not be found in (or removed via) Backup Manager. (PPPM-14306)

  • Fixed the issue where restoring from a backup in remote storage resulted in the creation of that backup in local storage. That backup counted against the subscription’s disk space limit, but could not be seen in Backup Manager if the subscription lacked the permission to manage local backups. (PPPM-14287)
  • Fixed the issue where trying to optimize PHP Settings for a domain with one or more disabled and/or broken PHP handlers resulted in the “Failed to update the optimal settings: app.conflicts.app.conflicts.Overview” error. (PPPM-14348)

  • Fixed the issue where trying to create or migrate a subdomain whose name matched a part of the name of a different subdomain already present on the server (for example, trying to create “subdomain.example.com” when “subdomain.example.com.example.com” already existed) failed with the “A domain with such a name already exists” error. (PPPM-14371)
  • Fixed the issue where entering the words “background”, “login page”, or “custom” into the search field in the Plesk interface did not suggest the Tools & Settings > Branding page, as expected. (PPP-64307)
  • Fixed the issue where the “{{ disk_usage }}”, “{{ disk_space_limit }}”, “{{ traffic }}”, “{{ traffic_limit }}”, and “{{ limit_name }}” placeholders were not replaced with actual numbers in email notifications sent to resellers. (PPPM-14333)
  • Fixed the issue where it was possible to create aliases and subdomains for other subdomains via the XML API. (PPPM-14328)
  • Fixed the issue where the panel in the Plesk interface added by the Help Center extension could not be shown correctly when logged in under a reseller account. (PPPM-14302)

Linux

  • On servers running Red Hat Enterprise Linux or one of its derivatives, when trying to upgrade the MariaDB database server via the Plesk interface, the upgrade tool now verifies the configured repositories before starting and notifies the user if any of them must be commented out or removed for the upgrade to succeed. (PPP-64366)
  • Fixed the issue where running the plesk bin ipmanage –remap command resulted in one or more lines in the map file being ignored if one or more target IP addresses already existed on the target network interface. (PPPM-14353)
  • Fixed the issue where the plesk repair fs command was looking for the /etc/domainkeys directory even if no mail server was installed. (PPPM-14336)
  • Fixed the issue where performing a dist-upgrade from Debian 10 to Debian 11 on a server with Mailman 2 installed caused issues when accessing existing mail lists after the dist-upgrade. (PPPM-14338)
  • PHP 7.4 is now correctly marked with the “Outdated” tag in the Plesk Installer interface. (PPPM-14263)
  • When installing Plesk on Debian or Ubuntu, “Recommended” dependencies (including the sa-compile package) are no longer installed. (PPPM-14367)
  • Fixed the issue where, after registering a custom DNS backend via the plesk bin server_dns –enable-custom-backend command, adding a DNS record in Plesk did not result in the record’s TTL value being passed to the custom backend. (PPPM-14366)
  • Fixed the issue where SSH access was shown as “Forbidden” on a domain’s Hosting page if the hosting plan the domain’s subscription was based on had the “SSH access to the server shell under the subscription’s system user” parameter set to /bin/bash and the “Management of access to the server over SSH” permission to “Not allowed”. (PPPM-14360)
  • Fixed the issue where, if the permissions on the /etc/domainkeys directory were wrong, running the the plesk repair fs command produced the “Class “Plesk\Repair\Fs\PleskUserException” not found” error instead of fixing them. (PPPM-14358)
  • Fixed the issue where, if outgoing mail control was enabled, emails using the “windows-1253” character set were delivered with malformed contents. (PPPM-14355)
  • Fixed the issue where running the plesk repair web –php-handlers command to fix missing PHP handlers assigned to service plans failed to remove the “The following PHP version(s) are not installed” error shown on the Tools & Settings > PHP Settings page. (PPPM-14350)
  • Fixed the issue where running the plesk repair mail command did not fix the DKIM configuration. (PPPM-14299)
  • Editing a symlink to a file in File Manager now correctly saves the changes in the file the symlink is pointing to. (PPPM-14345)
  • Fixed the issue where trying to set an image in the SVG format as the custom login screen background failed with the “Some fields are empty or contain an improper value” error. (PPPM-14341)
  • Fixed the issue where removing a subscription failed to also remove the DKIM configuration files of domain aliases owned by the removed subscription. (PPPM-14324)
  • Fixed the issue where the Backup Telemetry extension did not show the “Open telemetry” icon for backups whose contents could not be read by the psaadm user in their entirety. (PPPM-14303)

  • Plesk auto-reply now uses the encoding from an incoming email’s subject for the subject of the automated response email. (PPPM-13543)
  • After converting a CentOS 7 server with Plesk to AlmaLinux, the /etc/logrotate.d/syslog.bak file is now moved to /usr/local/psa/var/centos2alma/syslog.logrotate.bak. (PAUX-6180)
  • Fixed the issue where, after converting a CentOS 7 server with Plesk to AlmaLinux, the AWStats configuration files were not recreated. (PAUX-6178)

Windows

  • Fixed the issue where switching the default spam filter to SmarterMail SpamAssassin resulted in the “The system cannot find the path specified.” error if SmarterMail Build 8747 or later was installed and set as the default mail server. (PPP-64302)
  • Fixed the issue where using Plesk Reconfigurator to change the MySQL data location to that on a different disk drive resulted in the “Failed to seek the actual end of file data stream” error. (PPPM-14335)
  • Fixed the issue where using Plesk Reconfigurator to verify and fix Plesk virtual hosts’ security resulted in unnecessary empty directories being created in the Plesk virtual hosts’ directory. (PPPM-14320)
  • Fixed the issue where running the plesk sbin statistics command could result in unnecessary and confusing warnings. (PPPM-14374)

What’s New?

  • To help Plesk users comply with the NIS2 directive, and also to improve the security of Plesk in general, the NIS2 compliance mode makes a number of changes to what is logged to the Plesk Action Log. Learn more about NIS2 compliance mode.

To enable NIS2 compliance mode, add the following lines to the panel.ini file:

actionLog nis2compliant = true Once you have done so, the following changes take effect:

  • API requests are now logged to the Action Log. To also log API requests that only get information from Plesk and do not result in any changes being made, add the following line to the actionLog section:

api.includeImmutable = true

  • Changes to DNS records are now logged to the Action Log, including the specifics (such as what record was added or removed, or what changes were made to an existing record), as well as the GUID of the user who made the change.

  • Action Log is now included in Plesk backups if the “User files” checkbox is selected when creating a backup, and the “Exclude log files” one is not. Customer or reseller level backups only include information pertinent to that customer/reseller.

Action Log is stored in a separate file with the backup_action-log prefix. Learn how to extract files from a Plesk backup.

  • (Plesk for Linux) We are glad to announce that the ability to upgrade MariaDB database servers to the latest version in the LTS branch via the Plesk interface is no longer in beta! We thank everyone who tried the beta version for their participation and feedback.

To access this feature, go to Tools & Settings > Database Servers (under “Applications & Databases”), and then click Upgrade Now next to an eligible MariaDB database server.

The feature is being gradually rolled out to Plesk servers around the world. If you do not see the Upgrade Now button, you can enable the feature manually by adding the following lines to the panel.ini file:

databaseManagement features.canBeUpgraded = true

  • Plesk customers can now get access to Plesk Action Log events related to their subscriptions to monitor changes applied to them. The feature works only together with the Log Browser extension and will be enabled gradually after the release of Plesk Obsidian 18.0.60. The link to Action Log will appear in the right menu near the domain card.

We consider the feature to be a mandatory requirement for Plesk to comply with the NIS2 directive. According to the directive, customers must have an ability to monitor changes related to their domains.

To enable the feature before its official release in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.60, add the following lines to the panel.ini file:

ext-wp-toolkit appModeFeature = on Once you have done so, most WP Toolkit features (except for mass management operations) become accessible directly from Dynamic list in Plesk without having to open WP Toolkit.

  • Added the “Get Started” tab to domain cards in Dynamic List view to make it easier for new users to build websites quickly. It offers many options for creating a website with just one click (like Sitejet, WordPress, Laravel, Node.js, and more). The tab appears when opening a newly created domain’s card for the first time, and remains accessible but nonintrusive once closed. The tab replaces both the previously available “Welcome” panel and the “Create website” button.
  • It is now possible to buy Plesk licenses straight from the DigitalOcean Marketplace interface and attach them to new and existing droplets.
  • With the new paid Sitejet Commerce feature that supports integration with Ecwid, you can now have an eCommerce store on your Sitejet-based website.
  • Sophos Anti-Virus for Servers can now be installed via Plesk Installer on both Plesk for Linux and Plesk for Windows servers. You can find it in the “Mail hosting” section in Plesk for Linux, and in the “Anti-Virus features” section in Plesk for Windows.
  • The latest 30 entries from the Plesk Obsidian changelog are now available in an RSS feed. You can find the feed here.

Feature Improvements

  • The “Scheduled Backups List” extension has been localized into 31 languages: Arabic, Catalan, Chinese Simplified, Chinese Traditional, Czech, Danish, Dutch, Filipino, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Hebrew, Hungarian, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Malay, Norwegian Bokmal, Polish, Portuguese, Portuguese, Brazilian, Romanian, Russian, Spanish, Swedish, Thai, Turkish, Ukrainian, and Vietnamese.
  • The Plesk interface and documentation now mention both MariaDB and MySQL where only MySQL was mentioned before.

Linux

  • Plesk now shows the exact amount of physical memory installed on the server. To access this information, go to Tools & Settings > Server Information (under “Server Management”), scroll down to “Memory Usage”, and look for the “Hardware” column.
  • When trying to update Plesk on a server that does not have enough free disk space, Plesk Installer automatically cleans up unnecessary temporary files, then tries again.
  • The “NTP Timesync” extension is now included in the “Recommended” preset.
  • A separate branch of the “NTP Timesync” extension was created so that the extension could still be installed on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.x. Future versions of the “NTP Timesync” extension’s main branch will no longer be compatible with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.x.
  • The “NTP Timesync” extension has been localized into 30 languages: Arabic, Catalan, Chinese Simplified, Chinese Traditional, Czech, Danish, Dutch, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Hebrew, Hungarian, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Norwegian Bokmal, Polish, Portuguese, Portuguese, Brazilian, Romanian, Russian, Spanish, Swedish, Thai, Turkish, Ukrainian, and Vietnamese.
  • Added a message in Tools & Settings > Mail Server Settings advising to set the value of the “Maximum message size” parameter to 135-140% of the maximum allowable attachment size.

Windows

  • It is now possible to install and use the Log Browser extension in Plesk for Windows. The extension also provides access to Action Log events for customers the same way it is done in Plesk for Linux.

Future Plans

  • (For developers of extensions) Starting from Plesk Obsidian 18.0.61, we plan to switch PHP used by Plesk to PHP 8.3. If you are running any custom extensions, you will need to update them to support PHP 8.3 to avoid potential issues.

You can install Plesk Obsidian 18.0.60 running on PHP 8.3 for testing purposes only by running the following command:

wget https://autoinstall.plesk.com/plesk-installer && bash ./plesk-installer install plesk 18.0.60 –source http://autoinstall.plesk.com/plesk-php8.3

  • Starting from Plesk Obsidian 18.0.62, requests to REST API containing the Content-Type header with a media-type directive other than “application/json” will result in the HTTP “415 Unsupported Media Type” client error response code. Since the curl commands send the “Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded” header by default, you need to add the –header “Content-Type: application/json” option to such commands to keep them working correctly.

Deprecated and Removed Items

  • Starting from Plesk Obsidian 18.0.60, the ability to use Active List view will be removed. All customers will be automatically switched to Dynamic List view.

Windows

  • Starting from Plesk Obsidian for Windows 18.0.60, it will no longer be possible to install the BIND DNS server, or to select it as the default DNS server in Tools & Settings > Server Components. Our support team will also no longer provide answers to questions related to the BIND DNS server in Plesk for Windows.

We strongly recommend that you switch to Microsoft DNS.

Fixed Product Issues

  • Installing the “NTP Timesync” Plesk extension now correctly results in the Network Time Synchronization button appearing in the Tools & Settings menu (under “Tools & Resources”). (EXTPLESK-2112)
  • Fixed the issue where removing a subscription with one or more backups in remote storage and then restoring only the subscription resulted in the backup file(s) being transferred to the server’s file system, but those backups could not be found in (or removed via) Backup Manager. (PPPM-14306)
  • Fixed the issue where restoring a subscription with one or more add-on domains from a backup created in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.54 or earlier resulted in domain keys not being configured for the add-on domains. (PPPM-14299)
  • Fixed the issue where restoring from a backup in remote storage resulted in the creation of that backup in local storage. That backup counted against the subscription’s disk space limit, but could not be seen in Backup Manager if the subscription lacked the permission to manage local backups. (PPPM-14287)
  • Fixed the issue where trying to optimize PHP Settings for a domain with one or more disabled and/or broken PHP handlers resulted in the “Failed to update the optimal settings: app.conflicts.app.conflicts.Overview” error. (PPPM-14348)
  • Fixed the issue where adding a valid IPv6 address in Tools & Settings > IP Addresses could fail with the “does not appear to be a valid IP address or it belongs to a wrong type” error. (PPPM-14373)
  • Fixed the issue where trying to create or migrate a subdomain whose name matched a part of the name of a different subdomain already present on the server (for example, trying to create “subdomain.example.com” when “subdomain.example.com.example.com” already existed) failed with the “A domain with such a name already exists” error. (PPPM-14371)
  • Fixed the issue where entering the words “background”, “login page”, or “custom” into the search field in the Plesk interface did not suggest the Tools & Settings > Branding page, as expected. (PPP-64307)
  • Fixed the issue where the “{{ disk_usage }}”, “{{ disk_space_limit }}”, “{{ traffic }}”, “{{ traffic_limit }}”, and “{{ limit_name }}” placeholders were not replaced with actual numbers in email notifications sent to resellers. (PPPM-14333)
  • Fixed the issue where it was possible to create aliases and subdomains for other subdomains via the XML API. (PPPM-14328)
  • Fixed the issue where the panel in the Plesk interface added by the Help Center extension could not be shown correctly when logged in under a reseller account. (PPPM-14302)

Linux

  • On servers running Red Hat Enterprise Linux or one of its derivatives, when trying to upgrade the MariaDB database server via the Plesk interface, the upgrade tool now verifies the configured repositories before starting and notifies the user if any of them must be commented out or removed for the upgrade to succeed. (PPP-64366)
  • Fixed the issue where running the plesk bin ipmanage –remap command resulted in one or more lines in the map file being ignored if one or more target IP addresses already existed on the target network interface. (PPPM-14353)
  • Fixed the issue where the plesk repair fs command was looking for the /etc/domainkeys directory even if no mail server was installed. (PPPM-14336)
  • Fixed the issue where performing a dist-upgrade from Debian 10 to Debian 11 on a server with Mailman 2 installed caused issues when accessing existing mail lists after the dist-upgrade. (PPPM-14338)
  • PHP 7.4 is now correctly marked with the “Outdated” tag in the Plesk Installer interface. (PPPM-14263)
  • When installing Plesk on Debian or Ubuntu, “Recommended” dependencies (including the sa-compile package) are no longer installed. (PPPM-14367)
  • Fixed the issue where, after registering a custom DNS backend via the plesk bin server_dns –enable-custom-backend command, adding a DNS record in Plesk did not result in the record’s TTL value being passed to the custom backend. (PPPM-14366)
  • Fixed the issue where SSH access was shown as “Forbidden” on a domain’s Hosting page if the hosting plan the domain’s subscription was based on had the “SSH access to the server shell under the subscription’s system user” parameter set to /bin/bash and the “Management of access to the server over SSH” permission to “Not allowed”. (PPPM-14360)
  • Fixed the issue where, if the permissions on the /etc/domainkeys directory were wrong, running the the plesk repair fs command produced the “Class “Plesk\Repair\Fs\PleskUserException” not found” error instead of fixing them. (PPPM-14358)
  • Fixed the issue where, if outgoing mail control was enabled, emails using the “windows-1253” character set were delivered with malformed contents. (PPPM-14355)
  • Fixed the issue where running the plesk repair web –php-handlers command to fix missing PHP handlers assigned to service plans failed to remove the “The following PHP version(s) are not installed” error shown on the Tools & Settings > PHP Settings page. (PPPM-14350)
  • Fixed the issue where running the plesk repair mail command did not fix the DKIM configuration. (PPPM-14299)
  • Editing a symlink to a file in File Manager now correctly saves the changes in the file the symlink is pointing to. (PPPM-14345)
  • Fixed the issue where trying to set an image in the SVG format as the custom login screen background failed with the “Some fields are empty or contain an improper value” error. (PPPM-14341)
  • Fixed the issue where removing a subscription failed to also remove the DKIM configuration files of domain aliases owned by the removed subscription. (PPPM-14324)
  • Fixed the issue where the Backup Telemetry extension did not show the “Open telemetry” icon for backups whose contents could not be read by the psaadm user in their entirety. (PPPM-14303)
  • Fixed the issue where changing the primary name server for a domain failed to update the primary name server for the domain’s aliases even if the “Synchronize DNS zone with the primary domain” checkbox was selected. (PPPM-14275)
  • Fixed the issue where log rotation failed for files with two or more hard links. (PPPM-13562)
  • Plesk auto-reply now uses the encoding from an incoming email’s subject for the subject of the automated response email. (PPPM-13543)
  • After converting a CentOS 7 server with Plesk to AlmaLinux, the /etc/logrotate.d/syslog.bak file is now moved to /usr/local/psa/var/centos2alma/syslog.logrotate.bak. (PAUX-6180)
  • Fixed the issue where, after converting a CentOS 7 server with Plesk to AlmaLinux, the AWStats configuration files were not recreated. (PAUX-6178)

Windows

  • Fixed the issue where switching the default spam filter to SmarterMail SpamAssassin resulted in the “The system cannot find the path specified.” error if SmarterMail Build 8747 or later was installed and set as the default mail server. (PPP-64302)
  • Fixed the issue where using Plesk Reconfigurator to change the MySQL data location to that on a different disk drive resulted in the “Failed to seek the actual end of file data stream” error. (PPPM-14335)
  • Fixed the issue where using Plesk Reconfigurator to verify and fix Plesk virtual hosts’ security resulted in unnecessary empty directories being created in the Plesk virtual hosts’ directory. (PPPM-14320)
  • Fixed the issue where running the plesk sbin statistics command could result in unnecessary and confusing warnings. (PPPM-14374)

Log Browser 1.7.0

22 March 2024

  • We are happy to introduce a new version of the Log Browser extension. It allows Plesk administrators to track their actions and changes (as well as those of other Plesk users) right in the Plesk interface.
  • Plesk customers can now get access to Plesk Action Log events related to their subscriptions to monitor changes applied to them. The feature will be enabled gradually after the release of Plesk Obsidian 18.0.60. The link to Action Log will appear in the right menu near the domain card.

We consider the feature to be a mandatory requirement for Plesk to comply with the NIS2 directive. According to the directive, customers must have an ability to monitor changes related to their domains.

To enable the feature before its official release in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.60, add the following lines to the panel.ini file:

actionLog actionLogForEndUsers = true Note: If you have already enabled the nis2complience setting in the panel.ini file, no need to enable actionLogForEndUsers as well. nis2complience enables all features related to compliance with the NIS2 directive.

  • It is now possible to install and use the Log Browser extension in Plesk for Windows. The extension also provides access to Action Log events for customers the same way it is done in Plesk for Linux.

Plesk Obsidian 18.0.59

20 February 2024

What’s New?

  • Plesk administrators can now configure the appearance of the Plesk login page by setting a custom background image or color. Note that a number of limitations exist.

  • Introduced the following improvements for the Sitejet Builder extension:

  • Added a feature to replace or append files in website elements using drag and drop.

  • Added Polish as a new language to Sitejet Builder.

  • Added a feature to sort by custom fields in Collections Manager.

  • Added Collections to website backups.

  • Added an optional feature to automatically clean up unused CSS code.

  • Added the Sticky Column feature that allows for sticky content while scrolling through the website.

  • New website template: Green Change.

  • New website template: Pets Care.

  • New website template: Podcaster.

  • New website template: The Beauty Temple.

  • Any changes related to DNS are now logged with the date and time, user, token, ID, and so on.

  • Authorization requests and requests that change the Plesk or system configuration are logged using the system log service.

  • Added the ability to duplicate the Plesk action log records to syslog (Linux) or Event Log (Windows). To enable the feature, add the following lines to the panel.ini file:

actionLog syslog = <false|true> Note: We will prepare documentation for NIS2 compliance mode with the Plesk Obsidian 18.0.60 release.

  • Prepared a script to automate dist-upgrade from Ubuntu 20 to Ubuntu 22.

Learn how to dist-upgrade to Ubuntu 22.

  • (Plesk for Linux) We are happy to announce the support for Mailman 3 in Plesk on Debian 11 and Debian 12. Read more about Mailman 3 in Plesk.
  • (Plesk for Windows) We are happy to introduce the new PowerShell Terminal extension in Plesk for Windows that allows connecting to PowerShell right in the Plesk user interface without having to use RDP connection to the server.
  • The Plesk GUI now supports HTTP/2, which improves web performance, optimize resource use, and reduces browsing latency.
  • In Service Provider view, we added the count of customers, resellers, domains, subscriptions, and service plans to the left menu. That way you can quickly see how many business items exist on the server. You can disable the feature by adding the following lines to the panel.ini file:

navigation showStatisticsInMenu = false

  • Added support for the Drupal 10 application installation to the Application Catalog.

Linux

  • Added support for MySQL Community Edition 8.2 and 8.3.
  • Introduced the permission for Restricted Mode to the SSH Terminal extension.
  • In the Log Browser extension, notifications about rebooting now contain the reboot date. (EXTPLESK-4170)
  • Added support for Joomla! 5.x to the Joomla! Toolkit extension. This version requires the Plesk PHP 8.1 handler for the management calls. (EXTCERT-5096)

Feature Improvements

  • Significantly improved the performance of Dynamic List view on configurations with many domains. Our tests on configurations with 100 domains within one subscription shows a fourfold improvement in the page loading speed. It is now possible to interact with loaded elements without having to wait for the entire page to load, which means no more freezing.

We have also significantly improved the domain search speed.

  • We introduced a new option that prevents changes only to Restricted Mode without affecting the ability to switch between Power User and Service Provider views. To enable the feature, run the following CLI command:

plesk bin poweruser –off -simple true -lock-simple-mode true

  • Laravel Toolkit is now fully compatible with Laravel 10.

  • Excluded Web Presence Builder from the “Full Installation” preset. The component is shown if it was already installed or the –show-hidden-components option is used.

  • Improved the usability of the measurement feature of Performance Booster in domain cards:

  • Added the “Measurement” section to the Performance Booster drawer in a domain card.

  • The Performance Booster button in the domain card now displays the optimization status.

Linux

  • In the Docker extension, it is now possible to create a private container by manually port mapping to localhost so the container will be unavailable outside of the host.

Deprecated and Removed Items

  • (Plesk for Windows) In March 2024, Internet Systems Consortium (ISC) drops support for BIND for Windows. Starting from Plesk Obsidian 18.0.60, we will stop developing new features for BIND and stop testing BIND DNS. It means that we will not guarantee backward compatibility for such configurations. Our support team will also no longer provide answers to questions related to BIND DNS.

We strongly recommend that you switch to Microsoft DNS.

Fixed Product Issues

Plesk Obsidian 18.0.58

9 January 2024

What’s New?

Linux

  • Authenticated Received Chain (ARC) support was added for Postfix and qmail.
  • Added the ability to upgrade MariaDB database servers to the latest version in the LTS branch via the Plesk interface. The feature is currently in beta. To enable it, add the following lines to the panel.ini file:

databaseManagement features.canBeUpgraded = 1

  • Prepared a script to automate dist-upgrade from Debian 11 to Debian 12.

Learn how to dist-upgrade to Debian 12.

  • PostgreSQL 15 is now supported.
  • .NET 8.0 is now supported.

Feature Improvements

  • When creating a subscription in Service Provider view, users are no longer redirected to the domain card of the newly created subscription’s main domain, and remain on the “Subscriptions” screen instead.
  • Added the ability to apply filters to the list of domains on the “Websites & Domains” page in Power User view.
  • SSH Terminal is now available from the Repair Kit interface.
  • The Plesk Installer web interface can now be accessed on Plesk servers that have the TCP port 8447 blocked.
  • The daily, hourly, weekly, and monthly maintenance tasks now run asynchronously. This prevents issues that could be caused by a new task starting before an existing task could finish running.
  • Updated the design of the “Tools & Settings” > “Performance Booster” > “Serverwide” tab to make it better match the rest of the Plesk interface, and also to increase its readability.

Deprecated and Removed Items

  • Starting from Plesk Obsidian 18.0.59, all users will be automatically switched to Dynamic List view. The ability to select a different view will be removed. Learn why Dynamic List view is the better option.

Fixed Product Issues

  • Fixed the issue where restoring a server backup containing one or more custom service plans resulted in the “Wrong syntax for command’s ‘-php_handler_type’ parameter. ‘’ does not match the pattern” error. (PPP-63417)
  • Fixed the issue where opening the “Domains” page resulted in the “Cannot read properties of undefined (reading ‘state’)” or “Db_Table_Exception: Unable to find row with id in domain_aliases table.” errors when one or more add-on domains and/or domain aliases existed in Plesk. (PPPM-14216)
  • It is no longer possible to enable SSL/TLS support for a domain that does not allow that option (for example, because the option is disabled in subscription or service plan settings) in Dynamic List view. (PPPM-14209)
  • Fixed the issue where email notifications regarding issues during the creation of a backup were failing SPF checks because they were not being sent on behalf of the admin user by default. (PPPM-12518)
  • The ampersand (“&”) character is no longer rendered as “&” on the Plesk login page when a custom title containing one or more ampersand characters is configured. (PPPM-14237)
  • Applying the suggested settings in Performance Booster no longer results in the number of files opened by MySQL/MariaDB processes increasing greatly. (PPPM-14207)

Linux

  • Fixed the issue where clicking Check configuration in Webserver Configurations Troubleshooter resulted in the “Call to private method PleskInstallation::isInstalled() from scope WebserverConfigurationKnownIssues” error. (PPPM-14219)
  • Event handlers for the “Mail account updated” event are no longer executed multiple times when triggered. (PPPM-14204)
  • When updating the default SSL/TLS certificate, the success message is now shown only once the process has finished. This is to help clear up confusion that could occur when updating the default SSL/TLS certificate on servers hosting large numbers of domains (the operation was shown as completed in the Plesk interface, but the actual updating of configuration files continued in background). (PPPM-12005)
  • Fixed the issue where domain aliases had incorrect ownership set on the file necessary for DKIM protection to work correctly. (PPPM-14248)
  • On ARM-based Ubuntu 22.04 servers, unsupported antivirus products are no longer recommended on mailboxes’ “Antivirus” tab. (PPPM-14246)
  • Adding a malformed TXT DNS record now correctly results in an error. (PPPM-14244)
  • Migrating from a Plesk server no longer fails with the “Can not find IP addresses for owner” error if that server’s administrator account has a username other than “admin”. (PPPM-14240)
  • The mail log is now rotated properly on Plesk servers where the mail server has been replaced with MSMTP. (PPPM-14223)

Windows

  • Fixed the issue where creating a full backup of a domain imported from a different Plesk for Windows server resulted in the “The ‘statusCode’ attribute is invalid. Not a valid unsigned integer.” error. (PPP-63514)
  • Fixed the issue where saving any changes to hosting settings for a domain owned by a customer resulted in the “Permission denied” error if the customer’s subscription was missing the “Hosting settings management” permission. (PPPM-14259)
  • The “Domain name” field is no longer missing when adding a TLSA DNS record. (PPPM-14256)
  • Securing the mail service with an SSL/TLS certificate no longer fails with the “not an array” error on Plesk servers using SmarterMail build 8747 and later. (PPPM-14249)

  • It is now possible to change the Plesk Administrator username.

  • The Sitejet Builder, Node.js Toolkit, and Laravel Toolkit extensions are now shipped with Plesk by default.

  • Added the Welcome Panel to make it easier for new users to quickly build websites. It offers many choices to create a website with just one click (like Sitejet, WordPress, Laravel, Node.js, and more). The panel pops up for users who just got hosting with a ready-to-use domain or picked Blank website or Upload files when creating a website. If they close the Welcome Panel, they can still find all the website-making options under the Create Website button on the domain card.

  • The latest update of the DNS integration for Cloudflare extension got the following new features:

  • Added the ability to remove a domain from Cloudflare when removing it from Plesk.

  • Added the option to enable/disable export of NS records from Plesk to Cloudflare.

Linux

  • Until September 2024 (the Extended Support end date), Plesk continues to deliver new versions of Plesk Obsidian for Ubuntu 18.04. It includes delivering new features and security updates if they do not contradict the software delivered by the OS vendor.

We strongly recommend using Extended Support from the OS vendor, which is called Ubuntu Pro, until you upgrade to Ubuntu 20.04 or migrate to another supported OS.

Note: If Ubuntu Pro is not used, Plesk is not responsible for any functional or security issues caused by the outdated software from the OS vendor.

  • Added the “Disk Usage” and “Traffic” columns to Dynamic List in Power User view. Using the columns, it is also possible to sort domains by used disk space and generated traffic.

  • The latest update of the Sitejet Builder extension got the following improvements and new features:

Plesk Obsidian 18.0.56

10 October 2023

What’s New?

  • Starting from Plesk Obsidian 18.0.56, the Sitejet Builder extension is installed by default. If for some reason, you want to disable the extension, add the following lines to the panel.ini file:

extensions blacklist = plesk-sitejet

  • Starting from Plesk Obsidian 18.0.57 (November 21), the Laravel Toolkit and Node.js Toolkit extensions are installed by default. If for some reason you want to disable the extensions, add the following lines to the panel.ini file:

extensions blacklist = laravel,nodejs

  • The SSL It! extension now supports DNS-based Authentication of Named Entities (DANE) that ensures reliable encryption for email transport. When a Let’s Encrypt certificate is being issued, TLSA DNS records of email services will now automatically contain information about the certificate.
  • It is now possible to change the default DKIM selector to a custom one for a single domain or all new domains hosted on the server.

You specify a custom DKIM selector for a domain in the domain’s mail settings. To specify a custom DKIM selector for all new domains, add lines of the following pattern to the panel.ini file:

mail dkimDefaultSelector = newselector

  • We are glad to inform you that the DNS Integration for Cloudflare extension is production-ready. Empower your experience with simplified DNS synchronization, enhanced website security, effortless subdomain creation, and smoother workflows. Use Cloudflare CDN, which distributes content around the world to speed up websites.

  • Connect your existing Cloudflare account to Plesk.

  • Import DNS records from Cloudflare to Plesk.

  • Export DNS records from Plesk to Cloudflare (both manually and automatically).

  • Enable/disable Proxy Mode.

Linux

  • Returned support for Ubuntu 18.04 until September 2024.

Until September 2024 (the Extended Support end date), Plesk continues to deliver new versions of Plesk Obsidian for Ubuntu 18.04. It includes delivering new features and security updates if they do not contradict the software delivered by the OS vendor.

  • Plesk continues to accept technical support requests from Plesk Obsidian on supported product versions on Ubuntu 18.04 without any restrictions.

  • Plesk reserves the right to warn Ubuntu 18.04 administrators about risks of an outdated OS using any channels including in-product notifications.

We would like to make the following recommendations to our customers:

  • Upgrade to Ubuntu 20.04 using dist-upgrade or migrate to a supported OS using Plesk Migrator before the Extended Support end date (September 2024).

  • Do not deploy/use new installations of Plesk on Ubuntu 18.04. For all new installations, Plesk will show an unremovable banner with a warning about Extended Support from the OS vendor.

  • To enhance security, Apache now listens to only the loopback IP address (also called localhost) when Apache runs with nginx as a reverse proxy.

This feature is turned on by default on new Plesk installations. To enable it on existing installations, run the following CLI command: plesk bin apache –listen-on-localhost true. For information on the feature, see the KB article.

Feature Improvements

  • Improved the logic of the Monitoring button shown on the domain card:

  • The Monitoring button is not displayed when it is not needed (a user chose to monitor a website themselves and did not connect the website to 360 Monitoring).

  • Connecting a website to 360 Monitoring brings back the Monitoring button to the domain card.

  • If a website is connected to 360 Monitoring, clicking the Monitoring button now opens the 360 Monitoring data of the website.

  • The icon of the Monitoring button on the domain card is now dynamic: it reflects the current status of Monitoring for a domain.

Linux

  • alt-php handlers are no longer misleadingly marked as “Outdated” in Plesk. On the contrary, they are supported and actively developed by CloudLinux.
  • Decreased the disk space the ModSecurity database consumes.

Deprecated and Removed Items

  • The following SDK functionality will be deprecated and removed in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.57. These are legacy functions and classes exposed in the pm.php file:

  • Functions: pm_alert(), pm_warning(), pm_comm_button(), pm_get_gpc(), pm_isset_gpc(), pm_set_gpc(), pm_get_locale(), pm_go_to(), pm_go_to_uplevel(), pm_ldate(), pm_ltime(), pm_ldatetime(), pm_link_button(), pm_lmsg(), pm_plesk_mail(), pm_psaerror(), pm_safetyhtml(), pm_size_b_printing(), pm_size_kb_printing(), pm_size_mb_printing(), pm_size_pretty_printing(), pm_topnote(), pm_util_exec(), pm_util_io_exec().

  • Classes: pm_errHandler, pm_Checker, pm_cList, pm_Form, pm_CustomButton, pm_CustomButtonManager.

We would like to make the following recommendations:

  • If you have Plesk extensions published in the Plesk Extension Catalog, then we have already checked that the extensions do not use those legacy functions and classes.

  • If you have Plesk extensions not published in the Plesk Extension Catalog, check if your extensions use the modern SDK.

Plesk Obsidian 18.0.55

29 August 2023

What’s New?

  • Starting from Plesk Obsidian 18.0.55, the Sitejet Builder extension will be installed by default for all new Plesk installations. If for some reason you want to disable the feature, add the following lines to the panel.ini file:

extensions blacklist = plesk-sitejet We are constantly working on the extension, so the latest update got the following new features:

  • Clicking Publish now automatically saves the website. This makes sure that the latest version of the website will be published.

  • Added new website templates: MakeIt Agency and LumeDeAqua.

  • Added support for website migrations, making it possible to migrate Sitejet websites between Plesk servers.

  • We’ve given our template selection a stylish makeover to make it even more enjoyable to browse.

  • Fixed a critical issue where some pages were not being indexed by search engines.

  • We now allow cross-origin requests for www-prefixed domains allowing forms to work properly.

  • In our continuous effort to improve performance, we’ve made the publishing process even faster.

  • During the update to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.56 and later, the Sitejet Builder extension will be enabled by default for all existing Plesk installations.

  • We are thrilled to introduce the Flexible Backups feature, which enables you to do the following:

  • Establish multiple backup schedules with different destinations at once to get a flexible and robust backup policy.

Establishing multiple backup schedules at once is a part of a license to the Backup to Cloud Pro extension. The extension is included to Plesk Hosting Pack.

  • Schedule frequent (several times a day or even on hourly) backups for critical data with one click from the Plesk interface.

By default, the ability to schedule hourly backups is only enabled for Plesk administrators. To enable resellers and customers to do so as well, go to Tools & Settings > Backup Manager, click Settings, select the “Allow customer and reseller accounts to schedule hourly backups” checkbox, and then click OK.

  • Backing up only databases. Previously, it was possible to back up databases together with files only.

  • To ensure better protection of emails from unauthorized changes and impersonation, we added support for 2048-bit DKIM keys. Starting from Plesk Obsidian 18.0.55, such keys will be used for all new Plesk installations by default.

  • To enable the feature on existing domains, follow the steps described in the KB article.

  • To switch back to 1024-bit DKIM keys, as a Plesk administrator, add the following lines to the panel.ini file:

mail dkimKeySize = 1024

  • On the domain card, we added the Performance Booster icon that indicates if the website’s performance can be optimized at the moment. The feature is supported in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.55 and later by default. To enable the feature in Plesk 18.0.54 and earlier, add the following lines to the panel.ini file:

ext-performance-booster domainButtonEnabled=true

  • Performance Booster can now detect custom gzip-related directives and suggest applying the optimal configuration excluding these directives.

  • In the Firewall extension, we added indicators to the firewall rules’ descriptions. These indicators show you if a rule allows all traffic or denies some of it.

  • Starting from Plesk Obsidian 18.0.55, Plesk can automatically identify the following:

  • Technologies (PHP, Ruby, Python, .NET, Node.js, Composer).

  • Top PHP frameworks (Laravel, Symfony, CodeIgniter, CakePHP, Yii).

  • CMS (WordPress, Joomla!, Drupal, PrestaShop, TYPO3).

In Dynamic List view, Plesk adds a corresponding icon to the domain card so that you can figure out which application is installed on a domain at glance. In case Plesk has a matching tool for the used technology (for example, WordPress, Joomla!, .NET, Node.js, Laravel Toolkits, Composer), you can open the corresponding configuration page by clicking the icon. In addition, Plesk published Wappspector, an open-source CLI utility based on this functionality. The utility can analyze the file structure of a web hosting server and identify the frameworks and CMS used on websites that are hosted on the server. For more information on Wappspector, see our Github repository.

  • (Plesk for Windows) Added support for the DNSSEC extension that allows signing DNS zones. DNSSEC stands for Domain Name System Security Extensions and represents a set of DNS protocol extensions that were introduced by IETF with the goal of signing DNS data to secure the domain name resolving process. Please pay attention that if you want to secure Plesk services with DANE, you have to sign a DNS zone using DNSSEC.
  • (Plesk for Windows) It is now possible to load the user profile for IIS application pools. That way you ensure better security and isolations of web applications.

In the Plesk interface, you can enable the feature using the “Load user profile” option on the following pages:

  • Tools & Settings > IIS Application Pool

  • Domains > Domain_name > Hosting & DNS > Dedicated IIS Application Pool for Website

  • Service Plans > Service_Plan_(or_addon)_name > Performance

  • Customers > Customer_name > IIS Application Pool

  • Resellers > Reseller_name > IIS Application Pool

Via the CLI, you can enable the feature by adding the -load-user-profile flag option to the following commands:

  • The whole Plesk server: plesk bin server_pref –set-iis-app-pool-settings -load-user-profile true

  • Service plans: plesk bin domain_template -u <service_plan_name> -load-user-profile true

  • Add-on service plan: plesk bin domain_addon_service_plan -c <addon_name> -iis-app-pool true -load-user-profile true

  • Per domain: plesk bin domain -u example.com -load-user-profile true

  • Customers/Resellers options: plesk bin client_pref –set-iis-app-pool-settings <customer_name> -iis-app-pool-turned-on true -load-user-profile true

  • Customers only: plesk bin client -u <customer_name> -iis-app-pool true -load-user-profile true

  • In March 2024, Active List view will be deactivated in domain cards. All customers will be automatically switched to Dynamic List view. See Feature Deprecation Plan for details.

Feature Improvements

  • In Dynamic List view, made a number of improvements to domain cards:

  • Based on your numerous requests, we colored and redesigned the icon set in the domain cards. That way you can find the desired feature with less cognitive load.

  • We renovated the “Statistics” part of the domain cards:

  • Moved the “Data Transfer”, “FTP Transfer report”, “Disk space and traffic”, and “Web Statistics SSL/TLS” links to the new “More statistics” drop-down list.

  • The “Open in web” and “Preview” buttons now appear when you hover the cursor over the website’s screenshot.

  • Improved the UI of the “Hosting Settings” drawer.

  • The PHP Composer extension button is now hidden if PHP is disabled in the domain’s settings.

  • (Plesk for Linux) We prepared Plesk QCOW2 images based on AlmaLinux 9 to replace those based on CentOS 7 because it reaches EOL on June 30, 2024.

  • Changing the preferred domain via the CLI now works correctly. (PPPM-14082)
  • Added a more specific error message for cases when Website Log Check detects the “403 Forbidden” error related to the .htaccess and .htpasswd Apache files. (PPPM-14089)
  • Removing domains with the “Send from domain IP addresses and use domain names in SMTP greeting” outgoing mail mode selected no longer results in overuse of server resources. (PPPM-13851)
  • DKIM keys no longer unintentionally change when updating the mail settings of a domain. (PPPM-14098)
  • When switching a domain to the “Website” hosting type, Plesk now shows the confirmation message. (PPPM-14105)

  • Fixed the issue where particular customers could not add domains because of the “Cannot read properties of undefined (reading ‘split’)” error. (PPPM-14112)
  • Fail2ban now again bans IP addresses from which the specified number of failed login attempts was exceeded. (PPPM-14116)
  • On Plesk servers running on AlmaLinux 8 with SOGo Webmail installed, running the dnf update command no longer fails with an error. (EXTPLESK-4933)
  • Plesk Firewall is no longer shown as installed after removing it via Plesk Installer. (PPPM-13980)
  • Adding a range of IPv6 addresses to the Fail2Ban whitelist in the Plesk interface no longer fails with the “The provided IP address, network address, or hostname is invalid” error. (PPPM-14073)
  • Now the update period is set to “None” when switching via the CLI to a rule set that does not suppport update periods. (PPPM-14084)
  • It is now more reliable to manually run scheduled tasks on CloudLinux servers without CageFS configured. (PPPM-14111)

Changes in Third-Party Components

Linux

  • Updated Fail2ban to version 1.0.2.

Windows

  • Updated Kaspersky Anti-Virus SDK to version 8.10.0.511.

  • Updated ASP.NET Core 7.0 to version 7.0.10.

  • Updated ASP.NET Core 6.0 to version 6.0.21.

  • Updated Node.js 16 to version 16.20.1.

  • Updated Node.js 18 to version 18.17.0.

  • Starting from Plesk Obsidian 18.0.55, the Sitejet Builder extension will be installed by default for all new Plesk installations. If for some reason you want to disable the feature, add the following lines to the panel.ini file:

extensions blacklist = plesk-sitejet We are constantly working on the extension, so the latest update got the following new features:

  • Clicking Publish now automatically saves the website. This makes sure that the latest version of the website will be published.

  • Added new website templates: MakeIt Agency and LumeDeAqua.

  • Added support for website migrations, making it possible to migrate Sitejet websites between Plesk servers.

  • We’ve given our template selection a stylish makeover to make it even more enjoyable to browse.

  • Fixed a critical issue where some pages were not being indexed by search engines.

  • We now allow cross-origin requests for www-prefixed domains allowing forms to work properly.

  • In our continuous effort to improve performance, we’ve made the publishing process even faster.

  • During the update to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.56 and later, the Sitejet Builder extension will be enabled by default for all existing Plesk installations.

  • We are thrilled to introduce the Flexible Backups feature, which enables you to do the following:

  • Establish multiple backup schedules with different destinations at once to get a flexible and robust backup policy.

Establishing multiple backup schedules at once is a part of a license to the Backup to Cloud Pro extension. The extension is included to Plesk Hosting Pack.

  • Schedule frequent (several times a day or even on hourly) backups for critical data with one click from the Plesk interface.

By default, the ability to schedule hourly backups is only enabled for Plesk administrators. To enable resellers and customers to do so as well, go to Tools & Settings > Backup Manager, click Settings, select the “Allow customer and reseller accounts to schedule hourly backups” checkbox, and then click OK.

  • Backing up only databases. Previously, it was possible to back up databases together with files only.

  • To ensure better protection of emails from unauthorized changes and impersonation, we added support for 2048-bit DKIM keys. Starting from Plesk Obsidian 18.0.55, such keys will be used for all new Plesk installations by default.

  • To enable the feature on existing domains, follow the steps described in the KB article.

  • To switch back to 1024-bit DKIM keys, as a Plesk administrator, add the following lines to the panel.ini file:

mail dkimKeySize = 1024

  • On the domain card, we added the Performance Booster icon that indicates if the website’s performance can be optimized at the moment. The feature is supported in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.55 and later by default. To enable the feature in Plesk 18.0.54 and earlier, add the following lines to the panel.ini file:

ext-performance-booster domainButtonEnabled=true

  • Performance Booster can now detect custom gzip-related directives and suggest applying the optimal configuration excluding these directives.

  • In the Firewall extension, we added indicators to the firewall rules’ descriptions. These indicators show you if a rule allows all traffic or denies some of it.

  • Starting from Plesk Obsidian 18.0.55, Plesk can automatically identify the following:

  • Technologies (PHP, Ruby, Python, .NET, Node.js, Composer).

  • Top PHP frameworks (Laravel, Symfony, CodeIgniter, CakePHP, Yii).

  • CMS (WordPress, Joomla!, Drupal, PrestaShop, TYPO3).

In Dynamic List view, Plesk adds a corresponding icon to the domain card so that you can figure out which application is installed on a domain at glance. In case Plesk has a matching tool for the used technology (for example, WordPress, Joomla!, .NET, Node.js, Laravel Toolkits, Composer), you can open the corresponding configuration page by clicking the icon. In addition, Plesk published Wappspector, an open-source CLI utility based on this functionality. The utility can analyze the file structure of a web hosting server and identify the frameworks and CMS used on websites that are hosted on the server. For more information on Wappspector, see our Github repository.

  • (Plesk for Windows) Added support for the DNSSEC extension that allows signing DNS zones. DNSSEC stands for Domain Name System Security Extensions and represents a set of DNS protocol extensions that were introduced by IETF with the goal of signing DNS data to secure the domain name resolving process. Please pay attention that if you want to secure Plesk services with DANE, you have to sign a DNS zone using DNSSEC.
  • (Plesk for Windows) It is now possible to load the user profile for IIS application pools. That way you ensure better security and isolations of web applications.

In the Plesk interface, you can enable the feature using the “Load user profile” option on the following pages:

  • Tools & Settings > IIS Application Pool

  • Domains > Domain_name > Hosting & DNS > Dedicated IIS Application Pool for Website

  • Service Plans > Service_Plan_(or_addon)_name > Performance

  • Customers > Customer_name > IIS Application Pool

  • Resellers > Reseller_name > IIS Application Pool

Via the CLI, you can enable the feature by adding the -load-user-profile flag option to the following commands:

  • The whole Plesk server: plesk bin server_pref –set-iis-app-pool-settings -load-user-profile true

  • Service plans: plesk bin domain_template -u <service_plan_name> -load-user-profile true

  • Add-on service plan: plesk bin domain_addon_service_plan -c <addon_name> -iis-app-pool true -load-user-profile true

  • Per domain: plesk bin domain -u example.com -load-user-profile true

  • Customers/Resellers options: plesk bin client_pref –set-iis-app-pool-settings <customer_name> -iis-app-pool-turned-on true -load-user-profile true

  • Customers only: plesk bin client -u <customer_name> -iis-app-pool true -load-user-profile true

  • In March 2024, Active List view will be deactivated in domain cards. All customers will be automatically switched to Dynamic List view. See Feature Deprecation Plan for details.

Feature Improvements

  • In Dynamic List view, made a number of improvements to domain cards:

  • Based on your numerous requests, we colored and redesigned the icon set in the domain cards. That way you can find the desired feature with less cognitive load.

  • We renovated the “Statistics” part of the domain cards:

  • Moved the “Data Transfer”, “FTP Transfer report”, “Disk space and traffic”, and “Web Statistics SSL/TLS” links to the new “More statistics” drop-down list.

  • The “Open in web” and “Preview” buttons now appear when you hover the cursor over the website’s screenshot.

  • Improved the UI of the “Hosting Settings” drawer.

  • The PHP Composer extension button is now hidden if PHP is disabled in the domain’s settings.

  • (Plesk for Linux) We prepared Plesk QCOW2 images based on AlmaLinux 9 to replace those based on CentOS 7 because it reaches EOL on June 30, 2024.

Fixed Product Issues

  • Creating an FTP user account via REST API no longer fails with the “code: 1014” error. (EXTREST-158)
  • Opening the “Scheduled Backup Settings” page in the Scheduled Backup List extension no longer results in a blank screen. (PPP-61987)

  • Now enabling or disabling an extension in a custom PHP handler does not unintentionally affect the state of the extension in other custom handlers. (PPPM-14081)
  • Customers can now again open the “Mail Settings” page of a domain without an error. Previously, the error occurred when the Plesk administrator enabled the “Disabled for incoming mail” option in the domain’s mail settings. (PPPM-14065)
  • Changing the preferred domain via the CLI now works correctly. (PPPM-14082)
  • Added a more specific error message for cases when Website Log Check detects the “403 Forbidden” error related to the .htaccess and .htpasswd Apache files. (PPPM-14089)
  • Removing domains with the “Send from domain IP addresses and use domain names in SMTP greeting” outgoing mail mode selected no longer results in overuse of server resources. (PPPM-13851)
  • DKIM keys no longer unintentionally change when updating the mail settings of a domain. (PPPM-14098)
  • When switching a domain to the “Website” hosting type, Plesk now shows the confirmation message. (PPPM-14105)
  • Adding an IP address to the primary DNS server via the CLI no longer fails with the “Unsupported DNS record type” error. (PPPM-14107)
  • Fixed the issue where particular customers could not add domains because of the “Cannot read properties of undefined (reading ‘split’)” error. (PPPM-14112)
  • Fail2ban now again bans IP addresses from which the specified number of failed login attempts was exceeded. (PPPM-14116)
  • On Plesk servers running on AlmaLinux 8 with SOGo Webmail installed, running the dnf update command no longer fails with an error. (EXTPLESK-4933)
  • Plesk Firewall is no longer shown as installed after removing it via Plesk Installer. (PPPM-13980)
  • Adding a range of IPv6 addresses to the Fail2Ban whitelist in the Plesk interface no longer fails with the “The provided IP address, network address, or hostname is invalid” error. (PPPM-14073)
  • Now the update period is set to “None” when switching via the CLI to a rule set that does not suppport update periods. (PPPM-14084)
  • It is now more reliable to manually run scheduled tasks on CloudLinux servers without CageFS configured. (PPPM-14111)

Windows

  • The plesk repair web example.com command now again fixes the .NET CLR version if ASP.NET version 4.x is selected in the corresponding subscription’s settings. (PPPM-14088)

18 July 2023

What’s New?

  • We are excited to introduce the Sitejet Builder extension, our new website builder for Plesk powered by WebPros. This extension is provided free of charge, allowing you and your clients to effortlessly create modern and stunning websites without any coding skills. Here are some of the key features of our new website builder:

  • Drag & Drop Website Builder

  • 140+ Website Templates

  • 120+ Section Templates

  • Responsive Settings (Flexbox)

  • AI Text Generator

  • SEO Settings

  • Dynamic Content (for example, Blog Feature)

  • E-Commerce

  • Multi-language websites

  • Free Stock Photos & Videos

  • Image Editing

  • Website Backups

  • Full Design Flexibility (HTML, CSS, JS)

  • And many more…

Once installed, the Sitejet Builder is available in the setup wizard when adding a new domain, but also visible for all other domains on the domain card under ”Install Application”, and also as an option for the “Add Domain” action.

We would love to hear your feedback about this extension at [email protected].

  • Added the ability to tune the MySQL/MariaDB server performance in Tools & Settings > Performance Booster (under “General Settings”).
  • Added the ability to add Transport Layer Security Authentication (TLSA) DNS records to domains’ DNS zones in Plesk. Such records are most commonly used to implement DNS-based Authentication of Named Entities (DANE).
  • Added the ability to back up databases separately from other website content by splitting the “User files and databases” checkbox into separate “Databases” and “User files” checkboxes in Backup Manager.
  • Added the ability to schedule hourly backups in Backup Manager. To enable the feature, add the following lines to the panel.ini file:

pmm allowHourlyTask = on By default, the ability to schedule hourly backups is only enabled for Plesk administrators. To enable resellers and customers to do so as well, go to Tools & Settings > Backup Manager, click Settings > select the “Allow customer and reseller accounts to schedule hourly backups” checkbox, and then click OK.

  • Based on Beta users feedback we are glad to announce that our tool to convert your CentsOS 7 server to AlmaLinux 8 is now Production ready! The ready to use CLI tool is available in our GitHub repository.

  • Added a number of features to the DNS integration for Cloudflare extension (the extension is still in beta).

  • The extension now allows to enable & disable CDN (proxy mode).

  • Plesk administrator can now manage all domains on the server and enable/disable the integration for the domains owned by customers.

  • In Plesk for Windows, it is now possible to integrate your server with 360 Monitoring, a new tool present in the Plesk 360 cloud service. 360 Monitoring brings a couple of useful features, for example, monitoring of website availability, various notification channels, and more.

Feature Improvements

  • It is now possible to set Dark Mode by default in Plesk. To do so, add the following lines to the panel.ini file:

branding theme = “dark”

  • We made a number of improvements to the way icons are placed on the domain card in Dynamic list view:

  • Changed the way icons are aligned to grid.

  • Limited the number of icons in a row to three.

  • Increased the icon size from 16px to 24px. These changes make the domain card easier to read, and help you locate specific icons more quickly regardless of your viewport size.

  • In Dynamic List view, we merged the “Hosting Settings” and “Web Hosting Access” into a single drawer accessible right from the domain card.

  • Made a number of improvements to Dynamic List view:

  • When set to “On a separate page”, you can now see websites’ root folders. To enable the feature, add the following lines to the panel.ini file:

dynamicList showColumnHostingLocation = on

  • When set to “In an expanded row”, clicking the “Expand all/Collapse all” button now completely expands or collapses the entire list of domains and subdomains.

  • Removed the separate “Hosting Settings” page for domain aliases. Controls for most settings can now be found right on the alias card. The option to rename a domain alias was moved to the hamburger menu in the top right corner of the alias card.

  • Added support for nightly packages in Plesk on RHEL 9 and its derivatives to the “SOGo Webmail” extension.

  • Added the -auto-confirm-this-may-lock-me-out-of-the-server option to the plesk ext firewall command line utility. The option can be used with the –apply and –enable commands, and removes the need to run the –confirm command in a separate SSH session when applying a new firewall configuration.

This option must only be used for automated Plesk deployments. Using this option may result in being permanently locked out of the server if the applied firewall configuration is misconfigured.

Fixed Product Issues

  • Searching for the name of a removed domain using the search bar no longer results in errors. (PPPM-14013)
  • Restoring a MariaDB database from a backup now aborts and shows an error if the backup cannot be restored correctly because it was created on a MariaDB with an earlier version. (PPPM-14012)

  • Creating firewall rules using a country code as the source on the first day of the month no longer fails with the “The requested URL returned error: 404” error on Plesk servers using geolocation data provided by DB-IP. (EXTPLESK-4813)
  • Installing Plesk on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 servers no longer fails with the “No matching repo to modify” error. (PPPM-14017)
  • Logging in to Plesk no longer results in the “HTTP 500 Server Error” error. (PPPM-14036)
  • Opening Backup Manager no longer fails with the “stat: path should be string, bytes, os.PathLike or integer, not NoneType” error under specific circumstances. (PPPM-14044)

What’s New?

  • It is now possible to use Hosting Plan Exporter to export reference hosting plans from one Plesk server and spread them to other servers via the CLI. That way you can keep hosting plans on your Plesk servers unified and up-to-date, as well as quickly deliver them to a newly deployed Plesk server.

To export several hosting plans via the CLI, run the following command:

plesk ext hp-exporter –export -plan ’name1, name2…’ To import hosting plans from a local file, remote storage, or a URL via the CLI, run the following command:

plesk ext hp-exporter –import -config path_to_source

  • To prevent temporary domains from being used for phishing and fraud, we added a banner that appears the first time you visit a temporary domain.

  • Added the ability to export and import a firewall rules configuration from a Plesk server to other Plesk servers.
  • Based on your feedback, we have published the new 0.2.0 version for the public beta CLI script that in-place converts your Plesk server on CentOS 7 to AlmaLinux 8. We recommend that you use the script to convert your Plesk server and check the result before CentOS EOL on June 30, 2024. That way we will be able to take into account the specifics of your server’s configuration in the stable release.

Please report any issues related to the conversion on GitHub. We have assigned a developer to process your feedback there. While this script is in beta, we do not provide help with the conversion via Plesk Support.

  • Updated MariaDB 10.11 to version 10.11.3.

  • It is now possible to use Hosting Plan Exporter to export reference hosting plans from one Plesk server and spread them to other servers via the CLI. That way you can keep hosting plans on your Plesk servers unified and up-to-date, as well as quickly deliver them to a newly deployed Plesk server.

To export several hosting plans via the CLI, run the following command:

plesk ext hp-exporter –export -plan ’name1, name2…’ To import hosting plans from a local file, remote storage, or a URL via the CLI, run the following command:

plesk ext hp-exporter –import -config path_to_source

  • To prevent temporary domains from being used for phishing and fraud, we added a banner that appears the first time you visit a temporary domain.

Linux

  • Added the ability to export and import a firewall rules configuration from a Plesk server to other Plesk servers.
  • Based on your feedback, we have published the new 0.2.0 version for the public beta CLI script that in-place converts your Plesk server on CentOS 7 to AlmaLinux 8. We recommend that you use the script to convert your Plesk server and check the result before CentOS EOL on June 30, 2024. That way we will be able to take into account the specifics of your server’s configuration in the stable release.

Please report any issues related to the conversion on GitHub. We have assigned a developer to process your feedback there. While this script is in beta, we do not provide help with the conversion via Plesk Support.

Feature Improvements

  • In Websites & Domains in Dynamic List view, it is now possible to create a staging website for testing purposes using the “Website Copying” button.
  • The Git extension now respects the selected branch when requesting a webhook.

Linux

  • Now you can configure the Plesk mail server to issue a 5yz response code for emails that fail the DMARC check.

  • Introduced the following improvements for Performance Booster:

  • Now the “Set optimized PHP settings” option cannot be selected if custom PHP settings are applied in the panel.ini file.

  • Added an ability to gauge the performance of a website before and after its optimization.

  • Added a description for the “Performance Booster” page (in Tools & Settings).

Deprecated and Removed Items

  • Dropped support for Ubuntu 18.04 because it has reached EOL on May 31, 2023. You can either migrate to a supported OS using Plesk Migrator or run dist-upgrade to upgrade your Ubuntu 18.04 instance.
  • (Plesk for Windows) myLittleAdmin has been removed from Plesk because the vendor stopped providing support for it. Therefore, it was out of date and had security issues.

Instead of myLittleAdmin, you can now use local database clients (for example, HeidiSQL and SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS)).

Fixed Product Issues

  • Fixed the issue where an external IP address was added to the BIND allow-transfer in case Plesk worked behind NAT. (PPPM-12126)
  • In Power User view, it is now again possible to open images of domains using File Manager. (PPPM-13971)
  • The desktop version of a website no longer unintentionally opens from a mobile device. (PPPM-13973)
  • The “Add Domain” button works correctly when the browser window is scaled down. (PPPM-13981)
  • Added the missing hint for the Disable Node.js button. (PPPM-13983)
  • In the CLI, viewing information about a hosting plan with the enabled -ssi support no longer results in the “Undefined array key “ssi_html” error. (PPPM-13985)

Linux

  • Horde works correctly after reinstallation. (PPPM-12017)
  • In Plesk on RHEL 8, the Imagick module no longer crashes if gssproxy is installed. (PPPM-13689)
  • When updating some PHP settings of a subscription from a file via the CLI, the remaining PHP settings are no longer reset to default. (PPPM-13910)
  • During installation or upgrade of Plesk on CentOS 7, the Plesk installer no longer shows the misleading “Unable to create yum cache for ‘*epel’ OS repository.” error. (PPPM-13946)
  • Fixed the issue where a custom 403 error page was not shown on the RHEL-based Plesk servers under some circumstances. (PPPM-13958)
  • Assigning a domain to a customer no longer results in the JavaScript error if an IPv6 address is removed. (PPPM-13972)
  • When sending emails from Plesk with the configured Roundcube, the misleading “PHP Error: Detected ‘temp_dir’ change” error is no longer logged. (PPPM-13977)
  • The “phpinfo()” page for a custom PHP handler now opens correctly. (PPPM-13986)
  • New custom PHP handlers added using the plesk bin php_handler –add CLI command will now restart correctly again. (PPPM-13995)

To fix the existing custom PHP handlers added that way, run the following command:

plesk bin php_handler –update

  • It is now possible to use more than 64 characters in passwords to an external SMTP server. (PPPM-13999)

Windows

  • The plesk repair command now again fixes issues found in the IIS settings of a domain. (PPPM-12727)
  • If a Plesk server had 32 CPU threads or more, the backing up process could be complete with an error. (PPPM-13989)

To fix the issue, limit the number of CPU threads that the backing up process can use. For example, you can set the limit to 16 threads by adding the following lines to the panel.ini file:

pmm archiverMaxThreads = 16

Plesk Obsidian 18.0.52

25 April 2023

What’s New?

  • (Plesk for Linux) It is now possible to block countries using the Plesk Firewall. The feature works out of the box.

By default, the feature uses the free version of the DB-IP geolocation database. You may want to use geolocation databases from MaxMind (GeoLite2 or GeoIP2), for example, because they are updated more frequently than DB-IP. GeoLite2 is free, while GeoIP2 is paid, but both require a license key. Learn how to switch from DB-IP to MaxMind.

  • (Plesk for Linux) We are thrilled to introduce the websites’ performance optimization feature. At the moment, it is possible to optimize PHP and nginx settings for one or more websites.

The feature is available in Tools & Settings > Performance Booster (under “General Settings”). In the next Plesk versions, we aim to introduce MySQL settings optimization and some tweaks to the existing settings for an even greater speed boost.

  • (Plesk for Linux) CentOS 7 reaches end of life on June 30, 2024. We have prepared a public beta CLI script that in-place converts your Plesk server on CentOS 7 to AlmaLinux 8. You can use the script to convert your Plesk server and check the result before CentOS EOL.

Please report any issues related to the conversion on GitHub and/or send us feedback to [email protected]. While this script is in beta, we do not provide help with the conversion via Plesk Support.

  • MariaDB 10.11 is now supported. It is the latest “long-term support” version from the vendor.
  • Plesk now supports secure MySQL connections. The Plesk administrator can now connect to a remote database securely via SSL/TLS and prohibit using a non-secure connection.
  • (Plesk for Linux) Ruby 2.7, 3.0, 3.1, and 3.2 are now supported.

Feature Improvements

  • Updated the Node.js Toolkit extension (former Node.js) to version 2.3.0:

  • Added quick access to File Manager.

  • You can now call npm/yarn commands from the “Run Node.js commands” tab in the extension interface.

  • You can now install/remove Node.js versions available on a Plesk for Linux server in the extension interface.

  • Renamed the Node.js extension to Node.js Toolkit.

  • Added the “Ruby” button to the “Adding New Domain” drawer. After a domain with the selected “Ruby” option is created, Plesk offers the necessary toolkit to manage the domain with Ruby right away. It is now easy to enable Ruby at the same time as adding a domain.

  • Modified the “Install Application” drawer:

  • Moved the “Install Application” button to the bottom of a domain card.

  • Moved the “Git” and “Website Importing” buttons from the drawer to a domain card.

  • After an application was installed on a domain, the corresponding application buttons now remain in the drawer.

  • Improved visibility of the global search bar.

  • Global search now shows the most recent results at the top.

  • To bring Plesk in line with the evolving industry-standard vocabulary, added aliases of the following CLI options:

The dns utility

  • –set-master > –set-primary

  • –set-slave > –set-secondary

The service_plan utility

-dns_zone_type (master|slave) > -dns_zone_type (primary|secondary)

Note: This improvement does not affect existing integrations that use the old CLI options. They continue to work.

Linux

  • Converted the Plesk Firewall module to an extension. It is now possible to update the firewall separately from Plesk.
  • Converted the Premium Antivirus for Servers component to an extension. It is now possible to update the antivirus separately from Plesk.
  • It is now possible to clone MySQL databases that have stored procedure triggers with DEFINER.

Windows

  • MyLittleAdmin is scheduled for removal in June 2023 (Plesk Obsidian 18.0.53).

We have prepared a KB article with the instructions on how to download, install, and configure local database clients (for example, HeidiSQL and SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS)) and added the link to the article to the Plesk interface.

The Plesk administrator can replace the default link with a custom one via the panel.ini file:

databaseManagement features.dbclient.info = “https://support.plesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/13302777933719" ; the default link

Deprecated and Removed Items

  • Ubuntu 18.04 reaches end of life on May 31, 2023. The OS vendor plans no security updates since that date. Plesk Obsidian 18.0.52 on Ubuntu 18.04 is the last Obsidian release on this OS.

Fixed Product Issues

  • Fixed the description of the Git button on the “Adding New Domain” drawer. (EXTGIT-306)
  • The panel.ini file configured to hide all Plesk promos now also hides the Dynamic View promo. (PPP-60603)
  • The plesk bin service_plan -i command now correctly shows information about service plans. (PPPM-13955), (PPPM-13953)
  • The AdBlock for Firefox extension no longer blocks the “Branding” page in Plesk in Tools & Settings. (PPP-60600)
  • The Plesk page with the URL of the https://<IP_address>:8443/login_up.php/<anything> pattern no longer reloads continuously. (PPPM-13931)
  • In Tools & Settings > DNS Settings (under “General Settings”), setting a TTL value of a DNS record no longer populates an empty TTL field of the next opened DNS record with this value. (PPPM-13944)
  • The underscore is now used as a delimiter when a custom prefix is set for database user names in Tools & Settings > Database Hosting Preferences (under “Applications & Databases”). (PPPM-13945)
  • Passwords of a Plesk administrator account and an internal email address set in the Plesk administrator profile are no longer in sync: changing one does not change the other. (PPP-57040), (PPP-60820)
  • Reinstalling an application via the Application Catalog no longer fails with an HTTP error 500. (PPP-60954)
  • The Plesk firewall rules (including custom ones) can now be backed up and restored. (PPPM-12676)
  • The started Dynamic list tour no longer results in a blank page for the “Dynamic list view - show websites on a separate page” view. (PPPM-13967)

Linux

  • It is again possible to change the location of virtual hosts using the transvhosts.pl utility. (PPPM-13949)
  • If “FPM application served by nginx” or “Dedicated FPM application served by nginx” was selected in a domain’s PHP settings and the corresponding PHP handler was then deleted, the “PHP settings” page of the domain is now opened without any issues. (PPPM-13941)
  • Inserting images to an HTML file via HTML Editor in File Manager no longer fails with the “Error Call to undefined function get_magic_quotes_gpc()” error. (PPPM-13901)
  • If debug mode is enabled with the show.util_exec_io option, operations that trigger the DNS update task no longer hang. (PPPM-13908, PPPM-13963)
  • If a specific IP address version (IPv4 or IPv6) is set for a domain, Plesk now sends mail from the domain only via this IP address. (PPPM-13770)
  • Adding or removing mail forwarding via XML API now works. (PPPM-13933)
  • A Plesk administrator account password can now contain up to 255 characters. Previously the password longer than 158 characters caused an error. (PPPM-13965)
  • The “SSH/Shell access” button is again shown for a domain whose owner is allowed SSH access. (PPPM-9970)
  • It is now possible to access files in password-protected directories when “Smart static files processing” and “Proxy mode” are enabled in the “Apache & nginx” settings. (PPPM-13942)
  • Customers with Plesk on the EOL Debian can now update Plesk to the latest availiable version using the plesk installer upgrade <version> —source <source> command. (PI-763)

Windows

  • If the “Keep secured” feature is enabled, it automatically renews an expired SSL/TLS certificate for FTP in IIS. (PPP-60650)
  • Creating an address book in Horde no longer fails with the “$name must be a string” error. (PPPM-13919)
  • The CLI now supports the set subcommand of the -forwarding-addresses option of the mail utility. (PPPM-13950)
  • It is now possible to create a mail user in SmarterMail 100.0.8495 or later. (PPPM-13966)

Future Plans

  • In the nearest future, we plan to switch PHP used by Plesk to PHP 8.2. This is because security support for PHP 8.0 will end in November 2023. If you are running any custom extensions, you will need to update them to support PHP 8.2 to avoid potential issues.

This change is currently scheduled to take place with the release of Plesk Obsidian 18.0.53 (early June 2023).

By default, the feature uses the free version of the DB-IP geolocation database. You may want to use geolocation databases from MaxMind (GeoLite2 or GeoIP2), for example, because they are updated more frequently than DB-IP. GeoLite2 is free, while GeoIP2 is paid, but both require a license key. Learn how to switch from DB-IP to MaxMind.

  • (Plesk for Linux) We are thrilled to introduce the websites’ performance optimization feature. At the moment, it is possible to optimize PHP and nginx settings for one or more websites.

The feature is available in Tools & Settings > Performance Booster (under “General Settings”). In the next Plesk versions, we aim to introduce MySQL settings optimization and some tweaks to the existing settings for an even greater speed boost.

  • (Plesk for Linux) CentOS 7 reaches end of life on June 30, 2024. We have prepared a public beta CLI script that in-place converts your Plesk server on CentOS 7 to AlmaLinux 8. You can use the script to convert your Plesk server and check the result before CentOS EOL.

Please report any issues related to the conversion on GitHub and/or send us feedback to [email protected]. While this script is in beta, we do not provide help with the conversion via Plesk Support.

  • MariaDB 10.11 is now supported. It is the latest “long-term support” version from the vendor.
  • Plesk now supports secure MySQL connections. The Plesk administrator can now connect to a remote database securely via SSL/TLS and prohibit using a non-secure connection.
  • (Plesk for Linux) Ruby 2.7, 3.0, 3.1, and 3.2 are now supported.

Feature Improvements

  • Updated the Node.js Toolkit extension (former Node.js) to version 2.3.0:

  • Added quick access to File Manager.

  • You can now call npm/yarn commands from the “Run Node.js commands” tab in the extension interface.

  • You can now install/remove Node.js versions available on a Plesk for Linux server in the extension interface.

  • Renamed the Node.js extension to Node.js Toolkit.

  • Added the “Ruby” button to the “Adding New Domain” drawer. After a domain with the selected “Ruby” option is created, Plesk offers the necessary toolkit to manage the domain with Ruby right away. It is now easy to enable Ruby at the same time as adding a domain.

  • Modified the “Install Application” drawer:

  • Moved the “Install Application” button to the bottom of a domain card.

  • Moved the “Git” and “Website Importing” buttons from the drawer to a domain card.

  • After an application was installed on a domain, the corresponding application buttons now remain in the drawer.

  • Improved visibility of the global search bar.

  • Global search now shows the most recent results at the top.

  • To bring Plesk in line with the evolving industry-standard vocabulary, added aliases of the following CLI options:

The dns utility

  • –set-master > –set-primary

  • –set-slave > –set-secondary

The service_plan utility

-dns_zone_type (master|slave) > -dns_zone_type (primary|secondary)

Note: This improvement does not affect existing integrations that use the old CLI options. They continue to work.

Linux

  • Converted the Plesk Firewall module to an extension. It is now possible to update the firewall separately from Plesk.
  • Converted the Premium Antivirus for Servers component to an extension. It is now possible to update the antivirus separately from Plesk.
  • It is now possible to clone MySQL databases that have stored procedure triggers with DEFINER.

Windows

  • MyLittleAdmin is scheduled for removal in June 2023 (Plesk Obsidian 18.0.53).

We have prepared a KB article with the instructions on how to download, install, and configure local database clients (for example, HeidiSQL and SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS)) and added the link to the article to the Plesk interface.

The Plesk administrator can replace the default link with a custom one via the panel.ini file:

databaseManagement features.dbclient.info = “https://support.plesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/13302777933719" ; the default link

Deprecated and Removed Items

  • Ubuntu 18.04 reaches end of life on May 31, 2023. The OS vendor plans no security updates since that date. Plesk Obsidian 18.0.52 on Ubuntu 18.04 is the last Obsidian release on this OS.

  • The Plesk firewall rules (including custom ones) can now be backed up and restored. (PPPM-12676)
  • The started Dynamic list tour no longer results in a blank page for the “Dynamic list view - show websites on a separate page” view. (PPPM-13967)

Linux

  • Adding or removing mail forwarding via XML API now works. (PPPM-13933)
  • A Plesk administrator account password can now contain up to 255 characters. Previously the password longer than 158 characters caused an error. (PPPM-13965)
  • The “SSH/Shell access” button is again shown for a domain whose owner is allowed SSH access. (PPPM-9970)
  • It is now possible to access files in password-protected directories when “Smart static files processing” and “Proxy mode” are enabled in the “Apache & nginx” settings. (PPPM-13942)
  • Customers with Plesk on the EOL Debian can now update Plesk to the latest availiable version using the plesk installer upgrade <version> —source <source> command. (PI-763)

Windows

  • If the “Keep secured” feature is enabled, it automatically renews an expired SSL/TLS certificate for FTP in IIS. (PPP-60650)
  • Creating an address book in Horde no longer fails with the “$name must be a string” error. (PPPM-13919)
  • The CLI now supports the set subcommand of the -forwarding-addresses option of the mail utility. (PPPM-13950)
  • It is now possible to create a mail user in SmarterMail 100.0.8495 or later. (PPPM-13966)

Future Plans

  • In the nearest future, we plan to switch PHP used by Plesk to PHP 8.2. This is because security support for PHP 8.0 will end in November 2023. If you are running any custom extensions, you will need to update them to support PHP 8.2 to avoid potential issues.

This change is currently scheduled to take place with the release of Plesk Obsidian 18.0.53 (early June 2023).

Plesk Obsidian 18.0.51

14 March 2023

What’s New?

  • Introducing Dark Mode in Plesk for when you want to rest your eyes in a low-light environment. Dark Mode can be enabled by clicking the ‘crescent’ icon in the upper corner of the screen.

Note: Dark Mode in Plesk uses cookies and works on per session basis.

  • We are glad to introduce the Sophos Anti-Virus for Servers extension. The extension supports Plesk for Linux, including ARM-based servers. Here’s how it helps to protect you from malicious emails:

  • Scans incoming and outgoing mail.

  • Scans all archive and compressed archive file formats.

  • Scans file formats that contain an executable stub that automatically decompresses the body of the file.

  • Rejects malicious and potentially dangerous e-mail messages.

  • Features CX-Mail, a context-aware setting that enables more aggressive detection rules specifically designed for email traffic.

  • Automatically updates virus signatures.

We would love to hear your feedback about this extension at [email protected].

  • We are glad to introduce the production version of the SOGo Webmail extension. Added the following improvements to the extension:

  • It is now possible to customize the service configuration templates.

  • The SOGo database is now backed up daily.

  • The extension has been translated into 32 languages.

  • We are glad to introduce the beta version of the DNS integration for Cloudflare extension. The extension automates the provisioning of DNS records from Plesk to Cloudflare, simplifying this routine to a couple of clicks.

  • Connect your existing Cloudflare account to Plesk.

  • Import DNS records from Cloudflare to Plesk.

  • Export DNS records from Plesk to Cloudflare both manually and automatically.

We would love to hear your feedback about this extension at [email protected].

  • The Website Log Check is no longer in beta. Learn more about Website Log Check. To enable the feature, add the following lines to the panel.ini file:

websitesDiagnostic enabled = true

  • We are glad to introduce the result of our research into the possibility to deploy a high-availability Plesk cluster using two new features:

  • Centralized database, which is no longer in beta as of this Plesk release.

  • Centralized storage based on NFS. Learn how to configure centralized DB and storage

We built a proof-of-concept high-availability Plesk cluster with active and passive nodes. Read the step by step guide and testing result for such a cluster.

We would love to hear your feedback about these features and the high-availability cluster on the Plesk forum.

  • Added the ability to recalculate disk space and traffic usage data for individual domains to the Plesk interface.

Feature Improvements

  • Classic list view has been updated to appear and function more closely to Dynamic list view, and also renamed to “Dynamic list view - show websites on a separate page”. If you used Classic list view in the past, “Dynamic list view - show websites on a separate page” should provide a similar, but improved experience.

  • Made a number of improvements to Dynamic list view:

  • Updated the layout of the list of hosted domains in Dynamic list view to make it easier to tell domains from subdomains and to make managing large numbers of domains easier in Dynamic list view.

  • Added the ability to search for domains to Dynamic list view.

  • Updated the Dynamic list view tour to highlight the changes and improvements made to Dynamic list view in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.51.

  • Changed the icon of the “View on a separate page” button for better legibility, and also added a “Copy domain name” button in Dynamic list view.

  • Added the Install application button in the Dynamic list view, under “Dev Tools”. Clicking it opens a drawer from which you can install web applications, such as Laravel, Node.js, and Ruby, on your domain. The list of available applications depends on what extensions are installed in Plesk.

  • Reworked the mail service options for individual domains. The available options are now “the domain can both send and receive email”, “the domain can send, but not receive email”, and “the domain can neither send nor receive email”. Selecting the latter option also removes all existing mailboxes for the domain together with all incoming and outgoing mail.

  • Updated the links on Plesk error pages to avoid confusion.

  • To bring Plesk in line with the evolving industry-standard vocabulary, the following changes were made to the terms used in Plesk:

  • “Master DNS server/zone” > “Primary DNS server/zone”

  • “Slave DNS server/zone” > “Secondary DNS server/zone”

  • Illustrations in Plesk have been redone in a unified style for consistency, visual integrity, and emotional response based on our target audience opinions and identified by tests.

  • Requests from the Plesk Screenshot Service to websites hosted in Plesk are now marked by the custom “Plesk screenshot bot” User-Agent header.

  • Plesk Premium Antivirus has been converted from a Plesk component to an extension.

Fixed Product Issues

  • Updated the default DMARC DNS TXT record to make it RFC compliant. (PPPM-13892)
  • Restoring from a backup stored in remote FTP storage now fails with an error instead of hanging indefinitely if the backup is invalid. (PPPM-13925)
  • Information about the availability of WP Toolkit Deluxe for the installed Plesk license can now be found in Tools & Settings > License Information. (PPP-60387)
  • It is now again possible to retrieve the list of all hosted databases via the REST API “databases” endpoint. (PPPM-13917)
  • Removed email forwarding addresses no longer reappear after restoring from a backup. (PPPM-13862)
  • It is now possible to create certificate signing requests with key sizes other than 1024 and 2048 bits via the RPC API. (PPPM-13918)

Linux

  • Removing PHP 8 via Plesk Installer no longer results in an error when browsing Tools & Settings > PHP Settings. (PPPM-13850)
  • Websites using PHP 8.1 and 8.2 with the PHP-FPM handler no longer randomly throw “HTTP 503 Service Unavailable” errors due to the handler process experiencing a segmentation fault. (PPPM-13872)
  • Enabling debug logging in Plesk no longer makes the Plesk GUI inaccessible with the “HTTP 502 Bad Gateway” error. (PPPM-13885)
  • Entering a custom TTL value for a PTR record in Plesk DNS settings now results in the custom value correctly taking effect. (PPPM-13776)
  • Running the plesk repair all -y or plesk sbin fsmng –fix-plesk-packages commands on a Plesk server with the Imunify360 extension installed and the default OS locale changed no longer fails with the “ERROR:’ascii’ codec can’t decode byte 0xc5 in position 1934: ordinal not in range(128)” error. (PPPM-13860)
  • Running the plesk repair mail command on a Plesk server using Postfix as the mail server no longer enables the mail service if it was intentionally disabled. (PPPM-13859)
  • Websites using PHP 8.1 and 8.2 with OPcache enabled no longer randomly throw “HTTP 503 Service Unavailable” errors due to child processes terminating themselves unexpectedly. (PPPM-13876)
  • On Plesk servers using Postfix as the mail server, securing mail with a TLS/SSL certificate may fail if multiple different end of line sequences (for example, both “\r\n” and “\n”) are used in the certificate body. (PPPM-13887)
  • Running the plesk repair installation command on a Plesk server with phpMyAdmin installed no longer breaks phpMyAdmin configuration. (PPPM-13902)
  • Watchdog will now monitor the correct ploop device after host node reboot if Plesk is installed in an OpenVZ 7/Virtuozzo 7 container. (PPP-57361)

Windows

  • Removing all registered database servers from Tools & Settings > Database servers no longer makes it impossible to add new ones. (PPPM-13893)
  • It is now again possible to change a website’s document root directory via the RPC API. (PPPM-13915)
  • Exporting a database to PDF in phpMyAdmin no longer fails with the “HTTP 500 Server Error” error. (PPPM-13823)

Future Plans

  • In the nearest future, we plan to switch PHP used by Plesk to PHP 8.2. This is because security support for PHP 8.0 will end in November 2023. If you are running any custom extensions, you will need to update them to support PHP 8.2 to avoid potential issues.

This change is currently scheduled to take place with the release of Plesk Obsidian 18.0.53 (early June 2023).

  • In the nearest future, we plan to stop shipping MyLittleAdmin with Plesk. This is because MyLittleAdmin is not in active development, and has known security issues. Instead, Plesk will provide links to downloadable clients and instructions on how to connect the client to the Plesk server.

This change is currently scheduled to take place with the release of Plesk Obsidian 18.0.53 (early June 2023).

Changes in Third-Party Components

  • Updated PHP 8.0 used by Plesk to version 8.0.28.

  • Running the plesk repair all -y or plesk sbin fsmng –fix-plesk-packages commands on a Plesk server with the Imunify360 extension installed and the default OS locale changed no longer fails with the “ERROR:’ascii’ codec can’t decode byte 0xc5 in position 1934: ordinal not in range(128)” error. (PPPM-13860)
  • Running the plesk repair mail command on a Plesk server using Postfix as the mail server no longer enables the mail service if it was intentionally disabled. (PPPM-13859)
  • Websites using PHP 8.1 and 8.2 with OPcache enabled no longer randomly throw “HTTP 503 Service Unavailable” errors due to child processes terminating themselves unexpectedly. (PPPM-13876)
  • On Plesk servers using Postfix as the mail server, securing mail with a TLS/SSL certificate may fail if multiple different end of line sequences (for example, both “\r\n” and “\n”) are used in the certificate body. (PPPM-13887)
  • Running the plesk repair installation command on a Plesk server with phpMyAdmin installed no longer breaks phpMyAdmin configuration. (PPPM-13902)
  • Watchdog will now monitor the correct ploop device after host node reboot if Plesk is installed in an OpenVZ 7/Virtuozzo 7 container. (PPP-57361)

Windows

  • Removing all registered database servers from Tools & Settings > Database servers no longer makes it impossible to add new ones. (PPPM-13893)
  • It is now again possible to change a website’s document root directory via the RPC API. (PPPM-13915)
  • Exporting a database to PDF in phpMyAdmin no longer fails with the “HTTP 500 Server Error” error. (PPPM-13823)

Future Plans

  • In the nearest future, we plan to switch PHP used by Plesk to PHP 8.2. This is because security support for PHP 8.0 will end in November 2023. If you are running any custom extensions, you will need to update them to support PHP 8.2 to avoid potential issues.

This change is currently scheduled to take place with the release of Plesk Obsidian 18.0.53 (early June 2023).

  • In the nearest future, we plan to stop shipping MyLittleAdmin with Plesk. This is because MyLittleAdmin is not in active development, and has known security issues. Instead, Plesk will provide links to downloadable clients and instructions on how to connect the client to the Plesk server.

This change is currently scheduled to take place with the release of Plesk Obsidian 18.0.53 (early June 2023).

Plesk Obsidian 18.0.50

31 January 2023

What’s New?

We are glad to release the anniversary version Plesk Obsidian 18.0.50. To all our customers, we thank you for your loyalty!

We have prepared a small gift for you. Are you intrigued? Follow the cat paw prints in Tools & Settings > About Plesk (under “Plesk”).

  • Added support for queue workers to the Laravel Toolkit extension. Laravel website owners can now manage queue jobs out of the box: schedule, monitor, remove, rerun, and so on.

To enable queues in your Laravel project, follow the instructions.

  • Customers can now create database users on the default server and servers where they already have databases (even if customers do not have the “Database server selection” permission).
  • Introduced the new SSL It! main screen, which offers a bird’s view of all domains, installed certificates (if any), the certificates’ expiration dates, and certificate authorities. It is now also possible to filter domains by status (valid, expired, self-signed, and so on) and certificate authority.
  • In the Git extension, added the ability to select users who can access a local repository via HTTP/HTTPS.

Previously, only the system user had access to all repositories in a subscription. You can now select additional users when creating a local repository or changing the settings of an existing one. These users can pull and push to a local repository via HTTP/HTTPS using their credentials.

  • The Git extension now correctly handles moving domains between subscriptions and places the Git directory to the appropriate subscription afterward.

Note Moving domains between subscriptions changes the plesk-git directory password because it must be synced with the subscription’s system user password.

  • Due to increased phishing attacks, creating websites with publicly resolvable temporary domain names is available only for paid licenses from now on.

Windows

  • Microsoft SQL Server 2022 is now fully supported. Plesk can now detect Microsoft SQL Server 2022 installed locally and allows to create and manage user databases. It is now also possible to do the following:

  • Use Microsoft SQL Server 2022 as a remote database server.

  • Install Microsoft SQL Server 2022 locally using Plesk Installer.

  • Import and export Microsoft SQL Server 2022 databases via the Plesk interface.

Feature Improvements

  • New domains now sign outgoing mail with DKIM. This improvement protects against email spoofing.

DKIM helps to verify that an email was indeed sent from the domain and no one tampered with the email content in transit. Previously, DKIM was not enabled by default for domains. Spoofed email messages with ‘From address’ forged to display a Plesk domain could pass DKIM and DMARC validation and were not filtered. New domains now have the “Use DKIM spam protection system to sign outgoing email messages” option selected by default.

Note: This improvement works only for new domains that have their DNS and mail hosting in Plesk.

  • New domains now use the DMARC quarantine policy by default. This improvement protects outgoing mail against email spoofing.

The DMARC policy defines how the receiver should treat email messages depending on the results of DKIM and SPF checks. The new default DMARC policy (v=DMARC1; adkim=s; aspf=s; p=quarantine) strictly enables DKIM and SPF checks. Emails that do not pass these checks are now put in quarantine (moved to the spam folder or flagged as suspicious).

Note: This improvement works only for new domains that have their DNS and mail hosting in Plesk.

  • When migrating to a server with a Plesk Web Admin license installed or installing the license, the previous subscription limits are now ignored and treated as unlimited.

  • Decluttered Dynamic List view and made it easier to navigate through multiple domains:

What’s New?

We are glad to release the anniversary version Plesk Obsidian 18.0.50. To all our customers, we thank you for your loyalty!

We have prepared a small gift for you. Are you intrigued? Follow the cat paw prints in Tools & Settings > About Plesk (under “Plesk”).

  • Added support for queue workers to the Laravel Toolkit extension. Laravel website owners can now manage queue jobs out of the box: schedule, monitor, remove, rerun, and so on.

To enable queues in your Laravel project, follow the instructions.

  • Customers can now create database users on the default server and servers where they already have databases (even if customers do not have the “Database server selection” permission).
  • Introduced the new SSL It! main screen, which offers a bird’s view of all domains, installed certificates (if any), the certificates’ expiration dates, and certificate authorities. It is now also possible to filter domains by status (valid, expired, self-signed, and so on) and certificate authority.
  • In the Git extension, added the ability to select users who can access a local repository via HTTP/HTTPS.

Previously, only the system user had access to all repositories in a subscription. You can now select additional users when creating a local repository or changing the settings of an existing one. These users can pull and push to a local repository via HTTP/HTTPS using their credentials.

  • The Git extension now correctly handles moving domains between subscriptions and places the Git directory to the appropriate subscription afterward.

Note Moving domains between subscriptions changes the plesk-git directory password because it must be synced with the subscription’s system user password.

  • Due to increased phishing attacks, creating websites with publicly resolvable temporary domain names is available only for paid licenses from now on.

Windows

  • Microsoft SQL Server 2022 is now fully supported. Plesk can now detect Microsoft SQL Server 2022 installed locally and allows to create and manage user databases. It is now also possible to do the following:

  • Use Microsoft SQL Server 2022 as a remote database server.

  • Install Microsoft SQL Server 2022 locally using Plesk Installer.

  • Import and export Microsoft SQL Server 2022 databases via the Plesk interface.

Feature Improvements

  • New domains now sign outgoing mail with DKIM. This improvement protects against email spoofing.

DKIM helps to verify that an email was indeed sent from the domain and no one tampered with the email content in transit. Previously, DKIM was not enabled by default for domains. Spoofed email messages with ‘From address’ forged to display a Plesk domain could pass DKIM and DMARC validation and were not filtered. New domains now have the “Use DKIM spam protection system to sign outgoing email messages” option selected by default.

Note: This improvement works only for new domains that have their DNS and mail hosting in Plesk.

  • New domains now use the DMARC quarantine policy by default. This improvement protects outgoing mail against email spoofing.

The DMARC policy defines how the receiver should treat email messages depending on the results of DKIM and SPF checks. The new default DMARC policy (v=DMARC1; adkim=s; aspf=s; p=quarantine) strictly enables DKIM and SPF checks. Emails that do not pass these checks are now put in quarantine (moved to the spam folder or flagged as suspicious).

Note: This improvement works only for new domains that have their DNS and mail hosting in Plesk.

  • When migrating to a server with a Plesk Web Admin license installed or installing the license, the previous subscription limits are now ignored and treated as unlimited.

  • Decluttered Dynamic List view and made it easier to navigate through multiple domains:

  • Introduced icons for no-hosting domain types (alias, forwarding, no hosting).

  • Removed the “Type” column.

  • Plesk now better handles domains with modern applications installed (for example, Laravel, .NET, and Node.js) while moving the domains between subscriptions.

  • SSL It! now shows recommended extensions and TLS versions in the “Settings” drawer.

  • Significantly improved backup performance for backups stored in the FTP storage: backup upload speed is now ~1.6 times faster, while CPU load decreased by a factor of two.

Plesk Obsidian 18.0.46

16 August 2022

  • A number of improvements were made to the Laravel Toolkit extension:

  • Added the ability to automatically turn maintenance mode on and off for the duration of the application deployment.

  • Added the ability to manage deployment steps of the application on the “Deployment” tab in the extension interface.

  • Added the ability to switch between the automatic and manual deployment modes of the application on the “Dashboard” tab in the extension interface.

If you select the automatic deployment mode, the application will be automatically deployed after a push to the repository (if the repository is local) or a webhook call (if the repository is remote). If you select the manual deployment mode, the application will be deployed when you click the Deploy button in the Laravel Toolkit or the Git extension interface.

  • A single webhook is now used for the Git and Laravel Toolkit extensions.

  • A number of improvements were made to the Git extension:

  • The extension now deploys files to production websites asynchronously if the deployment was triggered by a webhook.

  • Added the run-actions option to the createand update API methods, which enable/disable execution of additional deployment actions.

  • Added the async-deploy method to the CLI and XML API. The method invokes the asynchronous deployment of files to the production website.

  • Added the ability to hide the entire “Assistance & Troubleshooting” section of the Tools & Settings menu in Restricted Mode.

  • When a subdomain for a website with a resolvable domain name is created, SSL It! now waits for the subdomain name to become resolvable as well before trying to secure it with a Let’s Encrypt SSL certificate. This prevents situations where a newly created subdomain could not be secured with the “The domain is not resolvable” error. (PPPM-12892)

  • The “Interface Controls Visibility” tab has been removed from the Tools & Settings > “Interface Management” menu because most of the controls found on the tab were obsolete. The “Hide controls for rejection messages for non-existent mail addresses” checkbox has been renamed to “Hide bounce controls” and moved to the “Interface Views” tab.

  • Updated the appearance of pie charts used to show domains’ disk and traffic usage information.

  • Updated the interface of the Tools & Settings > Services Management menu to make it easier to read the current status of services at a glance. (PPPM-13598)

Third-Party Component Updates

  • Updated PHP used by Plesk to version 7.4.29.
  • Updated libcurl to version 7.83.0.

Windows

  • Updated POCO to version 1.11.2.
  • Updated ASP.NET Core 6.0 to version 6.0.5.

  • ionCube Loader is no longer shipped with Plesk because of the reorginization of the third-party component shipment with Plesk. ionCube will be automatically installed in one of the upcoming releases in the scope of installation of the PHP components.

To use ionCube Loader, install it manually.

Note: The already installed ionCube Loader component continues to work but PHP updates no longer update the component.

  • Excluded the myLittleAdmin component from the “Full Installation” preset and marked the component as outdated.

Note: The vendor does not support myLittleAdmin since 2013. Using outdated components is not secure. You can still install the component at your own risk by doing the following:

  • (During Plesk installation) Select the “Custom” installation type and then select myLittleAdmin.

  • (After Plesk installation) Run the plesk installer add –component mylittleadmin command.

  • The console now works using a domain’s PHP version instead of the system PHP. Customers can now run artisan, composer, and other commands without having to specify the whole path.

To propagate and turn on the feature for all subscriptions, run the plesk bin php_settings –update-all command.

To use the feature in Scheduled Tasks, prepend the cron command with the following:

export PATH="/opt/plesk/phpenv/bin:$PATH”; eval “$(phpenv init -)”; To disable the feature and bring back how the console worked before, add the following lines to the panel.ini file:

php phpenv = off Note: The feature works for Plesk PHP handlers only. It does not work for custom PHP handlers and CloudLinux with CageFS.

  • Ubuntu 22.04 is now supported, with certain limitations. You can use the dist-upgrade procedure to upgrade your OS from Ubuntu 20.04 to Ubuntu 22.04.
  • It is now possible to customize the client_max_body_size nginx directive in the Plesk interface, via the CLI, and via the XML API.
  • It is now possible to change a database user password on the remote database server Percona MySQL 8.0.23. (PPPM-13538)
  • The “PHP-FPM settings” section in a domain’s PHP settings is now present for custom PHP handlers. (PPPM-13507)
  • If Apache-only hosting is turned on, third-party services that use the “Host” header validation (for example, Grafana) now work. (PPP-56778)
  • Log rotation now works correctly after updating to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.43 even if /usr/local/psa/etc/logrotate.conf was customized. (PPPM-13519)
  • Fixed the error message shown when a password is not complex enough for the the “Very Strong” password strength policy. (PPPM-13550)
  • In Plesk on Debian 10 and AlmaLinux 8, a start, stop, or restart of the dedicated PHP-FPM handler no longer fails with the “Unable to stop service: Variable “$actionType” got invalid value “stop”” error. (PPPM-13547)
  • It is no longer possible bypass email sending restrictions for Postfix and qmail by using the -bs option with the sendmail wrapper. (PPPM-13497)

Plesk Obsidian 18.0.43

12 April 2022

  • The new ‘Add Domain’ screen is now enabled by default for new Plesk Obsidian installations. This screen provides additional domain creation options:

  • Create a blank site.

  • Create a WordPress site.

  • Upload content using File Manager after website’s creation.

  • Connect a Git repository.

  • Import website from another hosting.

To disable it, add the following lines to the panel.ini file:

domainManagement applicationWizard.enabled = false

  • Node.js applications now write their logs to separate log files that can be viewed in the Log Browser. To disable this feature, add the following lines to the panel.ini file:

ext-nodejs showApplicationLogs = false

  • The Node.js extension now automatically cleans up the downloaded archives of minor Node.js versions that are no longer necessary from the extension’s cache.
  • Fine-tuned the password strength validator in Plesk to make it better at accurately evaluating strength of passwords generated by third-party applications and services.

The feature is disasbled by default because it may affect the automatic password generation scripts that must meet the new requirements. To enable the updated password strength validator, add the following lines to the panel.ini file:

passwordManagement estimator = zxcvbn The feature will be enabled by default in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.45. Read more about this feature.

  • For customers, who use automatic scripts for subscriptions/customers creation the new “API 1038 error code” was added. This error code will be returned to a 3rd-party system if a used password was not accepted by Plesk so it will be possible to reinitiate the password generation process. It means that customers with a such scenario can update their scripts to reinitiate a password generation and validation process if the previous password was not accepted.
  • On Plesk servers using BIND as the DNS server, the “notify-to-soa” option is now in effect. This ensures that the NS server specified as the primary master name server for a DNS zone in the zone’s SOA record is sent NOTIFY messages. This is useful in “hidden master” scenarios where the master NS server is not listed at the registrar and does not have an NS record in the DNS zone, and a slave NS server is listed in the SOA record instead.
  • Increased the speed of website preview generation for certain websites.
  • Increased the speed of switching between domains by up to 25% while using the File Manager or the domain card.
  • When configuring a custom TTL value for a DNS record for a domain, the custom value is also propagated to the DNS zones of all of that domain’s domain aliases. (PPPM-13425)
  • Receiving one or more emails with very long subject lines no longer causes some information to not be shown in “Tools & Settings” > “Mail Queue”. (PPPM-13462)
  • Clarified the notification shown when one or more backup files in remote FTP storage do not conform to the expected naming conventions. (PPPM-13453)
  • When scrolling through the contents of a directory in File Manager, the list of the files can no longer partially be seen through the page’s footer. (PPPM-13374)
  • Configuring or attempting to back up to a remote FTP repository hosted on the Azure Blob service no longer fails with the “(SSH_FX_OP_UNSUPPORTED)” error. (EXTPLESK-3418)
  • Perl and Python support is no longer listed as available but turned off in “Account” > “Hosting Options” if the corresponding Plesk components are not installed. (PPPM-13456)

Linux

  • Indroduced a beta version of the Laravel Toolkit extension that allows you to manage Laravel applications running on your Plesk server:

  • Scan and automatically connect Laravel websites to Laravel Toolkit. That way you can manage them using the Plesk interface.

  • Get your Laravel applications from a remote Git repository and deploy them.

  • Automatically update Laravel applications using Git webhooks.

  • Manage the .env file using the graphical user interface (GUI).

We would love to hear your feedback about this improvement. Please send us your feedback to [email protected].

  • Plesk users granted shell access (even chrooted) can now execute certain Node.js commands (like nvm use or npm install) straight from the shell.
  • The Node.js extension now supports the Yarn package manager (along with already supported npm).
  • When changing the PHP handler to “FastCGI application served by Apache” for a domain owned by a subscription based on a service plan that provides PHP-FPM by default, the PHP handler is now correctly changed to FastCGI. (PPPM-13450)
  • Performing dist-upgrade from Debian 10 to Debian 11 no longer results in an outdated version of the “plesk-py27-paramiko” package being installed. (PPPM-13478)
  • On Ubuntu 20.04 servers, restarting the nginx service no longer results in the “Unable to restart the service: Failed to fetch” error. (PPPM-13483)
  • The BIND service no longer fails to start after updating to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.42.1. (PPPM-13487)
  • Clarified the error message shown and logged when subscription creation fails when greylisting is enabled in global spam filter settings, but the /var/lib/plesk/mail/greylist directory is missing. (PPPM-13457)
  • Log rotation now works correctly after updating to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.42. (PPPM-13473)
  • After updating to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.42, backup creation no longer fails with the “Unable to run the backup agent” error. (PPPM-13492)
  • Installing Plesk Obsidian on a server running AlmaLinux 8.4 no longer results in misleading warning messages in the installer log. (PPPM-13485)
  • On servers running an RPM-based Linux with Yum, it is no longer possible to run the yum clean all command during the update, which led to the update failing. (PPPM-11218)
  • Setting the settings.fpm.pm.process_idle_timeout.values and settings.fpm.pm.process_idle_timeout.default PHP parameters to exactly “1” in the panel.ini file no longer prevents users from changing PHP handlers for hosted domains. (PPPM-13484)
  • Running the plesk repair web command now also repairs missing PHP modules. (PPPM-13387)
  • “Forgot password” emails are now sent in the language matching the user’s language configured in Plesk. (PPPM-13496)

Windows

  • Mail sent from IP addresses added to the white list now bypasses DNSBL checks. You can now add and remove IP addresses to/from the white list via the –add-to-white-list and –remove-from-white-list options for the mailserver.exe command.
  • When moving a domain from one subscription to another, the list of available target subscription now includes subscriptions whose “Mailbox Size” limit is exceeded by the sum total of disk space taken up by all mailboxes owned by the domain that is being moved. (PPPM-13398)
  • Trying to change the value of the ASP.NET “Session Timeout” parameter no longer fails with the “ERR panel Site without PhysicalHosting cannot be Webspace” error. (PPPM-13469)

fileManager trash.rotation.customerAccess = false

  • Based on the collected feedback, the bar on the right side of individual domains’ screens stays! The invitation to fill in the survey has been removed. Thanks for letting us know your opinion, everyone!
  • Added the ability to control the logging level of XML-RPC requests and responses. To change the logging level, add the following lines to the panel.ini file:

log filter.priority = 6 The valid values range from 0 to 7. The higher the number, the more detailed the log, with 7 being “debug”, 6 being “info”, and so on. See Zend Debug Levels for more information.

  • Context promos for a number of Plesk extensions have been removed from the “DNS Settings”, “Updates & Upgrades Settings”, “Email Addresses”, “Mail Server Settings”, and “Backup Manager” screens.

  • It is no longer necessary to empty the list of files to be excluded from backup in “Tools & Settings” > “Backup Manager” > “Schedule” before you can clear the “Exclude specific files from the backup” checkbox. (PPPM-12262)
  • Changing the IP address of a domain with log rotation enabled no longer turns log rotation off. (PPP-55573)
  • It is no longer possible to update Plesk administrator profile details if the “Email address” field is empty. (PPPM-13319)
  • Added a link to the documentation to the warning message shown when setting outgoing mail limit for a domain, and the configured limit for the domain exceeds the limit for the subscription. (PPPM-13203)
  • The “Preview” link for the domain selected for previewing other websites (“Tools & Settings” > “Website Preview” > “Quick Preview on a domain name in Plesk”) is no longer shown in the Domain list in Service Provider view. (PPPM-13361)
  • Uploading files via File Manager no longer sometimes fails with the “No files selected. To upload the files, you have to select them.” error. (PPP-54792)
  • After configuring the Amazon S3 Backup extension via the CLI, it is no longer shown as not configured in the Plesk interface. (PPPM-13332)
  • The confirmation message shown when removing a domain now correctly calculates the number of domains that will be removed. (PPPM-13283)
  • Fixed the issue where opening a domain resulted in a white screen under specific circumstances. (PPPM-13358)

Let’s Encrypt 2.14.0

14 December 2021

  • Changing Let’s Encrypt from a standalone extension into a plugin for SSL It!

In February 2022, we plan to change Let’s Encrypt into a plugin for the SSL It! extension.

Will I lose any Let’s Encrypt features?

You will not! The SSL It! extension already has all the features Let’s Encrypt has and more. The only change is that Let’s Encrypt stops being a standalone extension and starts working only in tandem with SSL It!

Which Plesk versions will it affect?

Plesk Obsidian 18.0.22 and later. Earlier Plesk versions do not receive either SSL It! or Let’s Encrypt updates.

How can I continue working with Let’s Encrypt certificates?

  • If your Plesk version is 18.0.22 and later, install SSL It! and use it from now on.

  • If your Plesk version is 18.0.21 and earlier, update Plesk to version 18.0.40, install SSL It!, and then use it from now on. You can still manage Let’s Encrypt certificates using the maintenance-only fork of the Let’s Encrypt extension (it comes with no new features, improvements, or bug fixes).

How and when will the change go into effect in Plesk 18.0.22 and later?

We are making this change in three steps:

  • On December 14, 2021 (Let’s Encrypt release 2.14.0), we announce the changes in the Plesk Change Log and Plesk UI notifications.

  • On February 15, 2022 (Let’s Encrypt release 2.15.0), we hide the Let’s Encrypt UI elements. At that point, you will still be able to bring them back by adding the following lines to the panel.ini file:

ext-letsencrypt showInterface = true

  • On March 15, 2022 (Let’s Encrypt release 3.0.0), we completely change the extension to an SSL It! plugin. It will no longer be possible to manage Let’s Encrypt certificates in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.22 and later without SSL It! If you have not installed SSL It! by yourself, Let’s Encrypt release 3.0.0 will automatically install it for you.

Note: The showInterface setting in the panel.ini file (mentioned above) stops working from this point on. Keeping it will not hinder your Plesk server in any way. However, we recommend that you remove the showInterface = true line from panel.ini to declutter the file content.

Why do you make these changes to the Let’s Encrypt extension?

Less than 10% of all Plesk servers use Let’s Encrypt without SSL It! Plus, combining the SSL It! and Let’s Encrypt extensions offers more features than Let’s Encrypt alone.

Plesk Obsidian 18.0.40

23 November 2021

  • Replaced Gzip with ZSTD as the default compression method for backup and restore operations in Plesk. On multi-CPU servers, depending on the type of data being backed up, this provides the following benefits:

  • Reduces the backup size by up to 20%.

  • Reduces the CPU load by up to 25%.

  • Reduces the backup creation time by up to 2x (fast), and by up to 4x (fastest), based on the compression level.

The desired compression level can be set in “Tools&Settings” > “Backup Manager” > “Settings”. The ‘Fast’ level is set by default.

  • Added the ability to disable automatic HTTP > HTTPS redirection for webmail. To enable it, add the following lines to the panel.ini file:

mail webmail.forceHttp = true On Plesk for Windows, to disable automatic HTTP > HTTPS webmail redirection for existing domains, run the plesk repair web -webmail command.

  • Removed a number of Plesk extensions from the Plesk Installer due to low usage. These extensions are still available from the Extensions Catalog:

  • Skins and Color Schemes

  • Domain Connect

  • Social Login

In addition, the Plesk Cgroups Manager extension was removed from the “Recommended” preset, and the Site Import extension was added to the “Recommended” preset.

  • Due to security improvements made by Google, if you are using Google Drive Backup Plesk extension to create backups on a shared drive belonging to a corporate account, you need to do the following to be able to make backups (users with personal drives are unaffected):

  • Re-register the drive and explicitly set its type to “Shared”.

  • Make sure your administrator has marked the Plesk Backup Corporate application as trusted.

  • Plesk Administrator should explicitly specify their country of residence in their profile.

  • A number of buttons initiating the primary action on the page have been visually highlighted to make them more noticeable.

  • When creating a subscription, physical hosting is now correctly configured if the subscription’s system user’s password includes one or more ampersand (“&”) characters. (EXTREST-118)

  • Domain Preview now correctly accesses the website being previewed via IPv4, even if an IPv6 address is also configured for the domain. (PPPM-13075)

  • For certain older Plesk extensions, clicking the name of a domain on the extension’s page no longer results in the domain overview page opening with layout and domain name, but no content. (PPPM-13252)

  • Running the plesk repair mail command for a domain in Plesk with “Outgoing messages from a subscription (per hour)” set to “Unlimited” no longer results in an error. (PPPM-13272)

  • Opening the Plesk Installer interface in a web browser no longer results in SSL certificate errors. (PPPM-13295)

  • It is now possible to add and modify database users even if the subscription’s default MySQL server is not available. (PPPM-13265)

  • Changing the IP address for a subscription now correctly updates the IP address of all domains owned by the subscription with the “Forwarding” hosting type. (PPPM-13256)

  • Operations in File Manager no longer incorrectly affect previously viewed webspaces. (PPPM-13268)

  • The controls in “DNS Settings” no longer sometimes disappear when logged in to Plesk as a customer. (PPPM-13292)

Linux

This closes an abusable loophole which allows users to send bulk email by specifying a large number of recipients (the current Outgoing Mail Control logic counts each individual email as just one message sent, no matter how many recipients the email is sent to). To switch Outgoing Mail Control from counting messages to counting recipients (and vice versa), run the plesk bin mailserver –set-outgoing-messages-count-recipients <true|false> command (the change is server wide). (PPM-7181)
  • Specifying custom values for both the proxy_read_timeout nginx directive and max_execution_time PHP setting for the same domain results in the max_execution_time value being substituted for the proxy_read_timeout value (e.g., adding proxy_read_timeout 1800; to “Apache&Nginx Settings” > “Additional Nginx directives” and setting max_execution_time to 90 in “PHP Settings” will result in proxy_read_timeout being set to 90 in the nginx configuration file for the domain in question). (PPPM-12599)
  • On Ubuntu 18.04 and Ubuntu 20.04 servers, re-reading and repairing IP addresses in Plesk no longer results in unnecessary duplicate lines sometimes being added to the /etc/netplan/10-plesk.yaml file. (PPP-53340)
  • Users can now manage the PHP-FPM version for domains after an incomplete systemd upgrade on the server. (PPPM-13248)
  • Trying to remove a database registered in Plesk but hosted on an external database server no longer results in an error if the database user name includes one or more underscore (“_”) characters. (PPPM-13239)
  • Removed the ampersand (“&”) character from the list of characters that cannot be used in passwords in Plesk included with the error message shown when the provided password does not meet the password strength requirements. (PPPM-13229)
  • Cached memory is no longer included in the memory usage calculation in “Tools&Settings” > “Server Information”.(PPPM-13264)
  • Added a human readable error message for cases when Task Manager fails to show the list of current tasks due to the number of simultaneously running tasks being very high. (PPPM-13123)
  • Running the plesk bin pleskbackup command with the “-z” or “no-gzip” options now correctly results in the backup file not being compressed. (PPPM-13254)
  • Trying to create a backup of a subscription no longer results in an error if the subscription’s name includes both uppercase and lowercase letters. (PPP-54691)
  • It is now possible to move domains to subscriptions that were created on Plesk versions 11 or earlier and then migrated to a Plesk Obsidian server. (PPPM-12916)
  • Mail messages forwarded from a Plesk server, or from one mail account to another on the same Plesk server no longer includes an unnecessary duplicate “From:” header. (PPPM-13296)
  • Trying to enable SSLv3 (which is outdated and insecure) on a Plesk server by running the plesk bin server_pref -u -ssl-protocols ‘SSLv3’ command now correctly fails with the “Protocol ‘SSLv3’ is not supported” error. (PPPM-13242)
  • Plesk Installer no longer reports errors if the locale used in Plesk is not configured correctly in Linux. (PI-331)
  • Restoring a backup in Plesk no longer results in a warning if the nginxCacheBypassLocations nginx directive is configured in the panel.ini file. (PPPM-13300)
  • Mailbox size limits specified in a hosting plan settings are now correctly propagated to mailboxes of all domains that belong to subscriptions based on that plan. The mailbox size is now corectly shown as “Default” instead of “Another size” in Plesk, and is changed accordingly for all mailboxes if the size limit is changed in the hosting plan. (PPPM-13274)
  • The size of files smaller than 4 KB is now shown correctly in File Manager. (PPPM-13303)
  • The “Upload file” command is no longer shown in File Manager when browsing a read-only directory. (PPPM-13285)
  • Copying a database or exporting a database dump no longer fails if the name of the database starts with the dash (“-“) character. (PPPM-13267)

Windows

  • Added the option to automatically remove emails forwarded from a mailbox in Plesk. The feature is disabled by default. To enable it, go to “Mail”, click the desired mailbox, open the “Forwarding” tab and select the “Do not deliver copies of forwarded emails to the Plesk mailbox” checkbox.
  • When selecting or clearing the “Show system files and directories” checkbox in File Manager options, it is no longer necessary to refresh the browser window for the changes to take effect. (PPPM-13255)

WordPress Toolkit 5.6.0

18 August 2021

  • Server admin now has access to server-wide plugin blocklist on the global Settings screen. Adding plugin slugs to this blocklist will prevent site admins from installing or activating these plugins via WordPress Toolkit. If these plugins are installed through other means, they will be found and deactivated by WordPress Toolkit with extreme prejudice.
  • Site admins can verify checksums of WordPress core files if they suspect their site is infected by malware. They can also reinstall WordPress core without affecting site content.
  • The wp-cli utility was updated to version 2.5. All WordPress Toolkit features, including cloning, should now work properly on PHP 8. Due to this change, the minimum PHP version supported by WordPress Toolkit is now PHP 5.6, so websites working on PHP 5.4 and PHP 5.5 cannot be managed by WordPress Toolkit anymore.
  • wp-cli-bundle is now shipped together with wp-cli utility, providing access to many useful commands previously embedded in wp-cli itself.
  • Cloning and Smart Updates now properly handle popular caching plugins.
  • Users can see WordPress Toolkit log entries that happened before and after a filtered log entry by clicking the Show in context icon located to the right of the filtered entry.
  • You can now delete WordPress sites through CLI using the –remove command.
  • WordPress-based sites in Dynamic List now have a WordPress tab with shortcuts to key WordPress Toolkit features.
  • WordPress Toolkit now assigns the corresponding database to a site after installation or cloning.
  • Update process for multiple items now works significantly faster due to skipping many unnecessary operations, most of which are too embarrassing to mention here.
  • Smart Update procedure itself also works a bit faster in a number of cases.
  • Smart Update procedure now provides detailed information about which .htaccess customizations prevent it from working properly.
  • Detection of PHP versions was improved for WordPress installations accessible via several different domains.
  • The “Hotlink protection” security measure wasn’t really a security measure, so it was moved to a separate switch outside of the Check security window.
  • Error handling and reporting related to PHP 8 was improved.
  • Email notifications sent by WordPress Toolkit now include server hostname in message subject for easier identification.
  • Domain management link is now named “Manage domain” to be less confusing.
  • The “Refresh” button in the “Logs” window now properly works in all known cases (and probably in some unknown ones too). (EXTWPTOOLK-7996)
  • WordPress Toolkit no longer insidiously puts sites in endless maintenance mode under certain harmless circumstances. (EXTWPTOOLK-7957)
  • Smart Update procedure no longer fails with error if it isn’t possible to check one of the site pages due to HTTP status code 500 error. (EXTWPTOOLK-7979)
  • WordPress Toolkit no longer tries to update WordPress core if autoupdate is set to minor and there’s no actual update available. (EXTWPTOOLK-7863)
  • A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away, WordPress Toolkit was showing installation IDs instead of installation names in error messages snown when a plugin couldn’t be deleted. This no longer happens and we’re not sure if it was a conscious stealth fix, or this bug simply died of old age. (EXTWPTOOLK-3573)

20 July 2021

  • Added the “Connection Info” to the Dashboard in the Dynamic List. Clicking it opens a drawer where users can easily view and change access information for FTP accounts and databases.
  • Clicking “Add Customer” now opens a drawer on the same page instead of going to a separate page. This should make the customer creation workflow faster and easier.
  • The PHP version currently in use for a domain is now shown below the “PHP Settings” button to make it easier to read at a glance.
  • Links to “Backup Manager” and “Scheduled Tasks” can now be found on the domain card as well as in the right sidebar. This should make these features easier to locate and access.
  • Mail Autodiscover is no longer supported for Microsoft Outlook 2019 and O365 versions. These mail clients use Microsoft proxy servers for autodiscover requests, and this configuration is not supported in Plesk.
  • Added password validation to the plesk bin database-server CLI utility. It is no longer possible to set database server password containing non-printable characters which caused issues with web statistics generation. (PPPM-12972)
  • It is now possible to create a subdomain for an additional domain with hosting type set to “no hosting”. (PPPM-12952)

  • Added the ability to check the statuses of all emails sent to and from a Plesk server by reviewing the maillog and filtering by date, source, or any string pattern. It is also possible to check the maillog in real-time (‘tail -fn0’ analog). To use this feature, install the Mail Log Browser extension.
  • Added the option to automatically remove emails forwarded from a mailbox in Plesk. The feature is disabled by default. To enable it, go to “Mail”, click the desired mailbox, open the “Forwarding” tab and select the “Do not deliver copies of forwarded emails to the Plesk mailbox” checkbox.
  • systemd-cron is now supported on Debian 9/10 and Ubuntu 18.04/20.04. The cron package can now be replaced with systemd-cron on servers with Plesk using the OS package manager. systemd-cron is a wrapper that converts cron tasks to systemd “timers”, which solves the well-known issue with a lot of emails being sent after a failed cron job.
  • Dovecot now reloads the configuration files instead of restarting whenever a mail certificate is renewed. This should resolve the issue with IMAP/SMTP connections often being closed without warning on Plesk servers hosting many domains.
  • The default chroot settings are no longer changed after updating Plesk to the latest version. (PPPM-12885)
  • The plesk repair utility no longer fails on file system check if the virtual host directory has been changed. (PPPM-12602)

  • Fai2ban no longer fails while processing the “plesk-panel” jail if debug mode is enabled in Plesk. (PPPM-13051)
  • Updating PHP packages from Remi’s RPM repository no longer resets permissions on /var/lib/php/session potentially causing PHP websites to malfunction. (PPPM-13068)
  • Converting a CentOS server with Plesk to AlmaLinux no longer fails if the EPEL repository is enabled on the server. (PPP-53540)

  • Updating PHP packages from Remi’s RPM repository no longer resets permissions on /var/lib/php/session potentially causing PHP websites to malfunction. (PPPM-13068)
  • Converting a CentOS server with Plesk to AlmaLinux no longer fails if the EPEL repository is enabled on the server. (PPP-53540)

Windows

  • MariaDB error logs no longer contain misleading “Aborted connection” warnings related to the plesksrv service. (PPPM-12737
  • Errors encountered during Plesk update are now correctly recorded in the installer log. (PPP-52706)
  • Restoring a password-protected subscription backup created on another Plesk server no longer fails if the correct password is provided. (PPPM-13061)

Third-Party Component Updates

  • Dropped support for MySQL versions earlier than 5.7.

Linux

  • Updated sw-engine PHP to version 7.4.21.
  • Updated ProFTPD to version 1.3.7b.
  • Updated Courier-IMAP to version 5.1.3.
  • Updated Updated Dovecot and Pigeonhole to versions 2.3.15 and 0.5.15 respectively.
  • Updated phpMyAdmin to version 5.1.1.

Windows

  • Updated plesk-engine PHP to version 7.4.21.

  • Updated Node.js 12 to version 12.22.3.

  • Updated ASP.NET Core 3.1 to version 3.1.16.

  • Added the ability to access the server from Plesk via a secure web-based SSH client. To use the SSH client, install the SSH Terminal extension.

  • Added the ability to check the statuses of all emails sent to and from a Plesk server by reviewing the maillog and filtering by date, source, or any string pattern. It is also possible to check the maillog in real-time (‘tail -fn0’ analog). To use this feature, install the Mail Log Browser extension.

  • Added the option to automatically remove emails forwarded from a mailbox in Plesk. The feature is disabled by default. To enable it, go to “Mail”, click the desired mailbox, open the “Forwarding” tab and select the “Do not deliver copies of forwarded emails to the Plesk mailbox” checkbox.

  • systemd-cron is now supported on Debian 9/10 and Ubuntu 18.04/20.04. The cron package can now be replaced with systemd-cron on servers with Plesk using the OS package manager. systemd-cron is a wrapper that converts cron tasks to systemd “timers”, which solves the well-known issue with a lot of emails being sent after a failed cron job.

  • Dovecot now reloads the configuration files instead of restarting whenever a mail certificate is renewed. This should resolve the issue with IMAP/SMTP connections often being closed without warning on Plesk servers hosting many domains.

  • It is now possible to install WordPress on CloudLinux used with the ALT-PHP handlers.

  • It is now possible to add and manage DNS records (including TTL) in a DNS zone via REST API.

  • Revamped the “Add Subscription” and “Add Domain” pages to make them consistent with other Plesk UX elements:

  • The “Webspace settings” section is now pre-filled and collapsed.

  • By default, Plesk now hides the Let’s Encrypt and Git sections when users create subscriptions, domains, and subdomains. To make the sections visible, add the following lines to the panel.ini file:

ext-sslit enableSecuringNewDomain = true ; shows the “Secure with an SSL/TLS Certificate” section secure-new-domain = true ; makes the “Secure the domain with Let’s Encrypt” checkbox selected by default ext-git enableOnSiteCreate = true ; shows the “Your Files to Copy to Hosting” section

  • Added a progress screen shown when users create domains.
  • Cleaned up the Plesk onboarding: removed distractions (for example, Plesk update notifications) that used to be shown once Plesk is installed.
  • Improved protection against open redirect. The trustedRedirectHosts setting now has the default “empty” value on all existing and new Plesk installations. trustedRedirectHosts specified with the “empty” value forbids Plesk from redirecting to any hosts using the success_redirect_url and failure_redirect_url parameters because such redirecting poses a security risk.
  • Plesk no longer shows DNS Helper if either IPv4 or IPv6 address resolves to the Plesk server. (PPP-52686)
  • Improved the message shown when a domain name is resolved to the IP address different from the Plesk server IP. The message no longer misleadingly states that the website is offline. (PPPM-12937)
  • When file upload fails in File Manager, Plesk now shows a detailed error message instead of the fileNotUploaded locale key. (PPPM-12929)
  • Backing up to the Microsoft OneDrive Backup storage can no longer fail because of a failed request for a new OneDrive access token. (EXTPLESK-2654)
  • The –create-map command of the pleskbackup utility is now deprecated. (PPPM-12940)
  • File Manager now shows a confirmation dialog before replacing an already existing file with the uploaded one that has the same name. (PPPM-12966)
  • Plesk now verifies that the number of simultaneously running backup processes to be set is more than zero. (PPPM-12927)
  • It is now possible to remove the Plesk email address of a subscription’s additional users if an external email address is specified. (PPPM-12849)
  • Restarting the Plesk server in Tools & Settings no longer causes the “Failed to fetch” warning to be shown in the Plesk interface. (PPPM-12962)
  • It is now possible to create a subdomain of an add-on domain that has the forwarding hosting type via API-RPC. (PPPM-10784)
  • The pleskbackup utility used with the –domains-name command no longer backs up the whole server instead of a subscription if the specified subscription does not exist. (PPPM-12797)
  • The plesk repair utility can now detect and fix the Plesk database inconsistency that leads to the “Unable to find row with id X in IP_Addresses table” error during migration or backup restoration. (PPPM-12843)

Linux

  • It is now possible to create a subdomain of a disabled domain if the “Force daily log rotation for all domains” server setting is turned on. (PPPM-11930)
  • Webmail is now turned on by default for domains created via API-RPC. (PPPM-12355)
  • The plesk repair utility now fixes incorrect permissions in /usr/local/psa/PMM/rsessions, which in turn fixes backup and restoration logs. (PPPM-12786)
  • If a domain’s IPv6 address is set to “none”, running the plesk repair db utility no longer shows the false positive “The following domains are assigned to already removed IP addresses.” error message. (PPPM-12988)
  • A system user that uses the “bash (chrooted)” shell can no longer lose the ability to connect via SFTP. (PPPM-12969)
  • Plesk now daily rotates PHP-FPM error logs to prevent them from consuming all the server disk space and eventually causing issues on the server. (PPPM-11362)
  • Fail2ban logs and database backups can no longer consume all the server disk space. (PPPM-12981)
  • Suspending a subscription that has an add-on domain with the forwarding hosting type and a subdomain of the add-on domain no longer breaks the Apache configuration. (PPPM-12939)
  • nginx now returns a 404 Not Found error when requesting a non-existent static file larger than 1023 bytes whose URL contains a trailing slash. (PPP-53248)
  • Disabling a domain whose webmail service was uninstalled no longer generates an incorrect webmail configuration. (PPPM-12984)

  • Cloning backend was fully redesigned for improved security and performance.

  • Workflow related to wp-cron management was redesigned:

  • The option was renamed to “Take over wp-cron.php” to avoid the classic “enable to disable” confusion.

  • It is now possible to explicitly choose if a replacement cronjob should be created or not via “Create a replacement task when takeover is initiated” switch.

Plesk Obsidian 18.0.35

20 April 2021

  • Upload directories.

  • (Plesk for Linux) Change file permissions recursively. Plesk for Windows has always supported that.

  • File Manager can now display SVG files.

  • Improved the interface of Dynamic List view. It is now easier to distinguish one domain card from another because we made the separating lines more distinct.

  • Reduced the domain creation time by four seconds. To achieve this, we split the mail service creation into a separate task.

  • Improved the “Add Domain” page. Plesk now automatically fills in the system user name and password boxes. We have also removed the password confirmation box.

  • The “Mail Settings” page of domains now shows a hint how to enable DKIM signing for an external DNS server. The hint shows the exact DNS records users need to add to the DNS server.

  • It is now possible to get information about subdomains via the CLI or REST API. (PPPM-12825)

  • Enabling the mail service via the CLI for a subdomain no longer creates the Plesk database inconsistency. (PPPM-12836)

  • The window shown after closing the Change View item in the left navigation pane now contains a correct text instead of placeholders. (PPPM-12863)

  • It is no longer possible to cause the Plesk database inconsistency by deleting an IP address assigned to a subscription without hosing. (PPPM-12876)

  • Introduced a new CLI command –assign-database, which assigns a database created via the API to a domain. (PPP-52056) The command has the following pattern:

plesk bin subscription_settings –assign-database <domain_name> -database-id <database-id>

  • The “DNS settings” page of a subscription no longer fails to be opened with HTTP Error 500 if the Plesk database inconsistency occurs. (PPPM-12877)
  • Plesk can now restore backups of subdomains that belong to a domain with the forwarding hosting type. (PPPM-12903)
  • Improved a hint for creating temporary domains. The previous hint was incorrect and could mislead users into specifying a temporary domain name that did not work. (PPPM-12883)
  • Updating to Plesk Obsidian no longer fails if the /var/www/vhosts/ permissions are not sufficient. (PPPM-12872)
  • Removing an APS application can no longer cause the Plesk database inconsistency. (PPPM-12902)

  • The Plesk interface can no longer occasionally show the “Cannot read property ‘querySelector’ of null” error. (PPPM-12884)
  • If a service plan has the “Switch on the mail service” and “Enable mail autodiscover” mail settings disabled, subscriptions created on the basis of the service plan now inherit these disabled mail settings. (PPPM-12879)
  • Improved a confusing error message. When users try to remove an IP address used by the mail server, Plesk no longer incorrectly notifies that the IP address is used for hosting. (PPPM-7984)
  • If “DNS Helper” is enabled and an add-on domain has an alias, panel.log no longer contains confusing error messages. (PPPM-12906)
  • The plesk repair utility now detects issues with domains assigned to already removed IP addresses and suggests reassigning the domains to existing IP addresses. (PPPM-12865)

  • The pmm-ras utility no longer creates archives and migration.log in the current working directory. The utility now creates migration.log in PMM_LOGS_D if the –session-path is not specified. The utility operation before the bugfix could occasionally cause server backups to fail. (PPPM-11752)
  • Sped up loading of lists with a large number of domains (more than 1000). (PPPM-12689)

Linux

  • If the Windows system locale language is not English, Plesk no longer skips a subscription’s mail when backing up the subscription. (PPPM-12874)
  • It is now again possible to train SpamAssassin because SpamAssassin Imap.php no longer tries to connect to the localhost using TLS. (PPPM-12086)

  • Plesk sw-engine now correctly uses the system time zone defined in Tools & Settings > System time (under “General Settings”) As a result, after the system time zone was changed, sw-engine now operates in the correct time zone and writes log entries that have the correct time. (PPPM-12543)
  • In the output of the secret_key CLI utility, changed the “Key” field name to “Key ID” to avoid user confusion. (PPP-52085)

WordPress Toolkit 5.3.0

15 February 2021

  • The wp-cli utility was updated to the latest version, so WordPress Toolkit now works on PHP 8. Yay! On the other hand, minimum PHP version supported by WordPress Toolkit is now PHP 5.4, so websites working on PHP 5.2 and PHP 5.3 cannot be managed by WordPress Toolkit anymore.
  • WordPress Toolkit now supports new autoupdate defaults introduced in WordPress 5.6. Autoupdate settings on new WP 5.6 installations are now set to “major and minor updates” by default. Existing WordPress installations updated to version 5.6 will keep their previous autoupdate settings.
  • New WordPress 5.6 installations managed by WordPress Toolkit are not using the WP_AUTO_UPDATE_CORE constant for configuring autoupdate settings anymore. Existing WordPress installations updated to 5.6 will keep the constant in wp-config.php file until autoupdate settings are changed. The only exception to both these cases is complete disabling of all autoupdates, which will still require WordPress Toolkit to add the constant to wp-config.php.
  • WordPress Toolkit now identifies and visually marks websites using unsupported version of WordPress, outdated (EOLed) version of PHP, or unsupported version of PHP.
  • It is now possible to clone websites with defined DEFINER clause in the database dump. If you were ever given issue ID EXTWPTOOLK-946 by our support team for tracking purposes, it’s time to rejoice.
  • WordPress Toolkit no longer adds WP_AUTO_UPDATE_CORE constant to wp-config.php file during operations not initiated by the customer (like checks for availability of updates, and so on). This constant will be added only after site admin has explicitly modified WordPress autoupdate settings.
  • WordPress Toolkit now tries its best to create site screenshots for quarantined and otherwise unsupported sites.
  • Site list loading speed was increased.
  • WordPress sites with very long rows in the database can now be properly cloned. (EXTWPTOOLK-939)

  • It is now possible to clone sites with large database tables without encountering the “Got packet bigger than ‘max_allowed_packet’ when dumping table” error. (EXTWPTOOLK-5778)
  • It should now be possible to clone sites with huge (>10 GB) database tables without encountering the 504 error when opening the cloning screen. (EXTWPTOOLK-5154)
  • The field formerly known as Login URL had its name and hint text updated to clarify that you don’t need to specify the full URL here, only the suffix. (EXTWPTOOLK-6107)
  • It is now possible to copy data from a site if it has files containing spaces in their names. (EXTWPTOOLK-6360)

Let’s Encrypt 2.12.5

3 February 2021

  • It is now possible to secure the www subdomains of domain aliases with wildcard SSL/TLS certificates. The fix works for the standalone Let’s Encrypt extension only. For Let’s Encrypt in the SSL It! extension, the issue still remains and will be fixed later. (EXTLETSENC-568)
  • It is now possible to secure the Plesk login page with an SSL/TLS certificate if the server hostname is set up as the custom Plesk login URL, while another domain is set up as the default one for the server IP address. (EXTLETSENC-980)
  • The extension now shows a clear error message if an SSL/TLS certificate cannot be issued because of misconfigured IPv6 addresses. (EXTLETSENC-752)

  • Resetting the list of certificate products to the default value via the CLI no longer fails. (EXTSSLIT-1369)

Repair Kit 1.2.3

27 January 2021

  • If iotop is absent from the server on which Plesk is being installed, this no longer stops installation of Repair Kit and correspondingly installation of Plesk. (EXTPLESK-1827)
  • Fixed the output of the plesk ext repair-kit –help command. (EXTPLESK-1703)
  • Repair Kit now actually fixes the database inconsistencies. (EXTPLESK-1570)
  • Fixed the incorrect use of the term. Repair Kit in Power User view now shows the term “webspace” instead of “subscription”. (EXTPLESK-816)

Advanced Monitoring 1.4.1

27 January 2021

  • The extension no longer writes the errors about the missing resctrl service to php_error.log. (EXTPLESK-2341)

Plesk Email Security 1.1.11

27 January 2021

Linux

  • Added an option to change the number of concurrent Amavis processes to the server settings. The default number is 10. Adjust it according to the server activity, available resources, and your MySQL configuration. If the number is too low, then not all emails can be processed directly on a busy server. If the number is too high, then a high load may occur on the MySQL database.

Note: A change of the number restarts Amavis and Postfix.

  • Added the forced expiry check call (the –force-expire option) to the daily Bayes train cron. The call forces the database sync and the expiry run.
  • Added a check for Sieve rules containing the “X-Spam-Flag” keyword to avoid conflicts with the rule necessary for the extension.

Plesk Obsidian 18.0.33

26 January 2021

  • Plesk now supports MySQL 8 as the local (Plesk for Linux) and the remote database server. To learn how to switch the Plesk local database server to MySQL 8 or to perform a clean installation of Plesk on a server with MySQL 8, refer to this KB article.
  • It is now possible to hide the controls related to Plesk updates (“Check for updates” and the “Update Plesk” buttons/links) on the Home page (in Service Provider view) and on the Websites & Domains screen (in Power User view).

To hide the controls, add the following lines to the panel.ini file:

updates showControls = false

  • It is now possible to hide plesk.com in the Plesk page footer. To do so, add the following lines to the panel.ini file:

promos pleskFooter = false

  • Added the “Database management” checkbox to Restricted Mode. Selecting the checkbox hides the “Database management” controls in the Plesk interface and prohibits the database management.
  • Manual setup of email clients now shows the information about the required mail ports and their differences.
  • Starting with this update, the Plesk database stores hashes of secret keys used to authenticate API requests rather than ciphertexts. This way, even if a threat actor were to read the Plesk database, they would no longer be able to retrieve any information that would allow them to authenticate via API.
  • Security improvements.

Note: Special thanks to Tarek Bouali (@iambouali) for reporting a security issue.

  • Improved the Plesk interface and texts on the “DNS Settings” (domains) and DNS Template > Zone Settings Template (the Plesk server) screens. It should more clear now which field manages the default TTL value for the zone.

  • Backing up to Dropbox no longer shows the checksum warning message. (PPPM-12583)
  • It is now possible to set the Plesk language and the description for a customer via REST API. (PPPM-12596)
  • Plesk now preserves custom mailbox size and units of measurements and does not reset them each time the mailbox page is opened. (PPPM-12647)
  • The mail autodiscover feature disabled on the Plesk server can no longer cause issues for resellers’ subscriptions (previously resellers’ subscriptions could be locked and could not be synced again). (PPPM-12661)
  • The additional user with the single “Manage DNS settings” permission can no longer see logs. (PPPM-12630)
  • File Manager is now opened faster when displaying a large number of files whose extensions are not hardcoded (for example, .exe or .pdf). (PPPM-12635)
  • File Manager is now opened significantly faster when displaying a large number of DLL files (more than 300). (PPPM-12634)
  • It is now possible to create DNS records that contain placeholders in the middle. (PPPM-12521)
  • If a Plesk license was terminated on a server, the customers no longer receive daily repetitive notifications of resource overuse. (PPPM-12636)
  • It is now possible to use the Amazon RDS Integration with MariaDB engine. (PPPM-12645)
  • The Contact Support button in Tools & Settings > Support (under “Assistance and Troubleshooting”) > “Contact support without generating a technical report.” now redirects to the correct Plesk Support URL. PPP-51824)

Linux

  • Added Brotli support to nginx.

Brotli compression is enabled by default.

To disable Brotli on a single domain, specify brotli off; in additional nginx directives.

To disable Brotli globally, either specify brotli off; in /etc/nginx/conf.d/yy000_brotli_tweaks.conf or run the plesk bin nginx -d brotli command.

  • Dropped support for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.
  • Dropped support for Apache 2.2 and Apache mod_rpaf module (as a part of the change mentioned above).
  • It is now possible to add a CNAME record pointing to another CNAME record. (PPP-49117)
  • If PHP support was disabled in an add-on plan, the add-on PHP settings can no longer be applied to a subscription in any way. For example, assigning the add-on plan to the subscription will not change the subscription PHP settings. (PPP-49098)
  • After installation of or upgrade to Plesk Obsidian, the plesk repair fs command no longer mistakenly detects files with the incorrect permissions in /var/log/plesk. (PPPM-12584)
  • In Plesk on CentOS 7 with PHP from the OS vendor, the Apache module php5 can now be enabled or disabled. (PPPM-12628)
  • IMAP and POP3 mail accounts configured in Outlook now correctly show emails with UTF-8 characters. The related “Your E-mail reader did not enable Unicode support” error message is no longer shown. (PPPM-12639)

  • Improved an error message shown in an attempt to enable Fail2Ban when Plesk does not have Fail2Ban installed. (PPP-51635)
  • If web statistics are not generated properly, customers can now understand why because AWStats errors are now logged and customers can see them in the panel.log file (if the show.util_exec_io setting is set to true in the panel.ini file). (PPPM-9832)
  • Plesk administrators can no longer set a rule in the Plesk Firewall that blocks themselves and, as a result, can no longer lose access to the Plesk interface. (PPPM-12469)
  • The server shutdown in Tools & Settings > Shut Down Server (under “Server Management”) is now executed immediately on the same page after confirmation. The server can no longer be shut down twice if the Plesk administrator kept the shutdown link in the browser and refreshed it after the first shutdown. (PPPM-12091)
  • In ModSecurity, the switch from the Atomic Standard to the Comodo rule set no longer causes false-positive bans. (PPPM-12291)

Windows

  • In Plesk 17.8 on Windows Server 2012 R2, the Tools & Settings > Updates (under “Plesk”) page no longer hinders customers from upgrading to Plesk Obsidian. The page occasionally got stuck in an infinite loop and was constantly refreshed. (PI-603)
  • Absence of the Plesk \etc\plesk-release file now throws an error and stops the non-interactive upgrade because such upgrade could make Plesk inaccessible. (PPPM-12581)

  • Introduced the new “Enable integration with the Cgroups Manager” feature available for Plesk installations where the Plesk Cgroups Manager license is installed.

With this feature, Plesk users can see how much resources their subscriptions consume. The Plesk administrator, in turn, can see and compare load between multiple subscriptions (up to 10).

The feature will be gradually turned on: first on Plesk servers that have fewer than 10 subscriptions. However, the Plesk administrator can turn on the feature for servers with a larger number of subscriptions by adding the following lines to the panel.ini file:

This improvement will be gradually turned on by default for all Plesk Obsidian installations.

Note: For this feature to work, add the following lines to the panel.ini file:

dns enableResolveChecking = true

This improvement will be gradually turned on by default for all Plesk Obsidian installations.

Note: For this feature to work, add the following lines to the panel.ini file:

dns enableResolveChecking = true

Plesk Obsidian 18.0.32

8 December 2020

  • PHP 8.0 is now supported.

Note: PHP 8 is still very recent (it came out on November 26) and includes significant changes, including the removal of deprecated functions and changes to how code works.

Because of this, many PHP applications that were written for PHP 5 and PHP 7 may not work correctly with PHP 8. This includes WordPress, which will fix most (but not all) PHP 8 compatibility issues in version 5.6 that will be released on December 8.

PHP 8 will not be included into the “Recommended” installation set and won’t be installed on new servers or when updating to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.32.

  • DNS Helper - a new feature meant to help users understand that their domain does not resolve to the server’s IP address and is inaccessible over the internet, and also to make it easier for them to make their domain resolve correctly. The feature will be rolled out to Plesk servers in waves. To enable it manually, add the following lines to the panel.ini file:

dns enableResolveChecking = true showDnsHelper = true

  • Added a new CLI command plesk checkupgrade in both Plesk for Linux and Plesk for Windows. Running the command before updating Plesk checks for issues that may prevent the server from updating safely.

  • Added the support for ModSecurity 3 to nginx. ModSecurity 2.9 + Apache remains for now the recommended option. To switch to ModSecurity 3 + nginx, go to “Tools&Settings” > “Web Application firewall”.

  • Switching to ModSecurity 3 may hinder your existing applications. We strongly recommend trying ModSecurity 3 out on a test server before switching your production environment to that version.

  • At the moment you can only choose the OWASP ruleset in the Plesk UI for ModSecurity 3. You can download the Comodo ruleset and upload it to Plesk as a custom ruleset. We plan to make it possible to enable the Comodo ruleset for ModSecurity 3 directly from the Plesk UI in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.33.

  • You can disable switching to ModSecurity 3 by adding the following lines to the panel.ini file:

modSecurity webServer.nginx = Off

  • This version introduces a guided onboarding workflow to help new users create their first website right after the new server initialization stage. Users can choose to start with a WordPress website, a PHP application, or a static HTML/CSS website. They can upload a website they already have or choose a sample website provided with Plesk. To disable this function, add the following lines to the panel.ini file:

ext-onboarding enabled = 0

  • As of Plesk Obsidian 18.0.32, Internet Explorer 11 support has been deprecated and will be removed in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.33. Learn more.
  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 has entered the vendor end of support phase. Plesk Obsidian 18.0.32 is the last Plesk Obsidian version that supports that OS. Learn more.
  • The File Sharing and Bandwidth Limiting (mod_bw) component has been removed. Learn more.
  • The UX of renaming websites in Plesk has been improved.
  • A publicly resolvable temporary domain name can now be chosen during a website’s creation. The temporary domain name allows you to start working on a new project even if you have no registered domain name. The feature will be rolled out to Plesk servers in waves. To enable it manually, add the following lines to the panel.ini file:

techDomain subdomain.enabled = true

  • The <your_domain> option is no longer marked as recommended in domains’ hosting settings because selecting it can result in an infinite redirection loop under specific conditions. (PPP-50944)
  • Cloning a database from a local MySQL server to an external one no longer fails if a database with the same name as the one chosen for the cloned database exists on the local database server. (PPPM-12499)

  • When viewing logs for a subscription, entries from custom logs added via “Logs” > “Manage Log Files” > “Add Custom Log” are no longer incorrectly filtered out. (PPPM-12554)
  • Usable error message is now shown if the MySQL writer process is terminated during database cloning. (PPPM-12450)
  • Restoring a subscription with the “Drupal-8.9.5-171” APS application installed from a backup no longer results in an error. (PPPM-12477)
  • After renaming a PHP handler via the plesk bin php_handler command, the custom name is now shown in Plesk instead of the original name. (PPPM-12556)
  • Restoring a backup created on a Plesk server with a large (1000+) number of customers and/or subscriptions no longer fails with the “The specified backup file is corrupted, modified, created on another server or in an earlier Plesk version” error. (PPPM-12461)

Linux

  • Creating a domain for a subscription while simultaneously changing PHP settings for an existing domain belonging to the same subscription no longer results in both processes hanging endlessly. (PPPM-12447)
  • When creating a subscription on a Plesk Obsidian server that was updated from an earlier Plesk version, the value of the “Restrict following symbolic links” parameter is now correctly passed from the service plan to the subscription. (PPPM-12532)

  • Firewall rules can now be managed via the “Firewall” extension on Plesk Obsidian servers running in VZ containers created from the ubuntu-20.04-x86_64 OS template. (PPPM-12390)
  • On Debian 10 servers with the “msmtp” component installed, sending mail via an external SMTP server no longer results in an error. (PPPM-12540)
  • On Debian 10 servers with the “msmtp” component installed, sending mail via an external SMTP server is now correctly logged to the mail.log file. (PPPM-12540)
  • On Plesk servers with Courier IMAP installed, all incoming emails are no longer duplicated for mail accounts that were disabled and then re-enabled. (PPPM-12530)
  • Plesk now correctly reports CPU and memory usage for the MySQL (MariaDB) service. (PPP-50838)
  • The sw-cp-server service no longer fails to reload or restart under specific circumstances. (PPPM-12525)

  • On Plesk servers with the “Fix incorrectly set sender for outgoing mail” option enabled in “Tools & Settings” > “Mail Server settings” and outgoing mail control enabled and set to unlimited, sending mail no longer results in the “Error during ‘limit-out’ handler handlers_stderr: ERROR:main:list index out of range” error being written to the mail log. (PPPM-12448)
  • It is no longer necessary to reload the page after Plesk initialization to log in if the WebSocket service is stopped on the server. (PPPM-12377)
  • Autoresponder now sends replies correctly to messages with national characters in the mail header. (PPPM-11553)

  • Plesk Installer logs are now rotated correctly if the /root/.autoinstallerrc file contains the line ‘SEPARATE_LOGS=”yes”’. (PPP-47902)
  • Changing an IP address on a Plesk server no longer causes issues with sending mail if the old IP address was selected in “Tools&Settings” > “Mail Server” > “Outgoing mail mode” > “Send from the specified IP addresses”. (PPPM-12466)

Windows

  • Security improvements.
  • Plesk no longer assigns the system privilege “Replace a process level token” to IIS users created by Plesk. We believe this to be a more secure configuration, despite it being recommended by Microsoft.
  • Plesk also explicitly removes the privilege “Impersonate a client after authentication” from IIS_IUSRS group. We believe this to be a more secure configuration, despite it being recommended by Microsoft.
  • On Plesk servers with SmarterMail version 100.0.7593 or later installed, creating a backup including one or more subscriptions with mailboxes no longer fails with the “Unable to back up mail messages. Error: Failed to list mail messages” error. (PPPM-12454)

WordPress Toolkit 5.0.0

30 September 2020

  • Two words: interface update! No need to worry, though, as the new UI for managing WordPress sites is a logical evolution of the old UI based on newer technologies. Site administrators will find themselves in a fresh-yet-familiar interface with increased focus on site updates, better UX, improved performance and responsiveness.

  • WordPress Toolkit Lite experience (applicable for owners of Plesk Web Admin edition) has been redesigned to prettify it and make it more uniform across different screens.

  • The list of features available in WPT Lite was updated to make it more consistent and logical:

  • Management of Search Engine Indexing is now available for free in WPT Lite

  • Debugging management is now available for free in WPT Lite

  • Password Protection is now available for free in WPT Lite

  • Update settings for individual sites are now available for free in WPT Lite

  • Upload of plugins & themes in the plugins / themes management is now available for free in WPT Lite

  • Mass update operations (including modification of update settings for multiple sites at once) are now available only in the full (paid) version of WPT

  • Starting with version 5.0, WordPress Toolkit requires Plesk Obsidian to work. Existing WordPress Toolkit installations on Plesk Onyx 17.8 will continue to function, but will no longer receive feature updates. Critical security fixes for WordPress Toolkit on Plesk Onyx 17.8 will continue to be delivered until Plesk Onyx 17.8 reaches end-of-life. We strongly recommend updating to Plesk Obsidian for the best Plesk and WordPress Toolkit experience.

  • WordPres Toolkit now properly updates site URL when a WordPress site is hosted on a subdomain and the main domain is renamed. (EXTWPTOOLK-2268)

  • Smart Updates no longer compare shortcode values, avoiding certain false positives during the analysis. Shortcode names are still compared. (EXTWPTOOLK-4618)

  • Backup / Restore functionality is no longer displayed as available for sites connected via remote management plugin (because it was never actually available, mind you, not because we removed the feature). (EXTWPTOOLK-5446)

  • WordPress Toolkit now displays a helpful hint for Firefox users with enabled pop-up blockers trying to log in to WordPress via WPT. Unsurprisingly, the hint is: turn off pop-up blocker on this page if you want to log in to WordPress via WPT. (EXTWPTOOLK-5634)

Extension Catalog 1.13.0

29 September 2020

  • The Plesk administrator and additional administrators can now purchase extensions without leaving the Extensions Catalog.

Let’s Encrypt 2.12.0

17 September 2020

  • The extension now supports a new chain of trust based on ISRG Root. Before January 11, 2021, the old IdenTrust root remains the default one, while the new ISRG Root is an alternative one. After January 11, 2021, the extension will issue SSL/TLS certificates based on the new ISRG Root, while the old IdenTrust root will become an alternative one.

To have the extension issue SSL/TLS certificates based on the alternative root (which is ISRG Root before January 11, 2021, and IdenTrust after this date), add the following lines to panel.ini:

ext-letsencrypt use-alternate-root = true

  • Improved an error message shown when the “Keep secured” task fails if the email address of a domain owner is missing. (EXTLETSENC-887)

Plesk Obsidian 18.0.30

15 September 2020

  • The Plesk login page can now show a notification what hostname to use for logging in to avoid the warning about an untrusted connection.

Failures to dump subscription databases are now regarded as important issues because they prevent subscriptions from being fully restored. (PPPM-12097)
  • Fixed the path to the Plesk favicon. Previously it could be occasionally incorrect. (PPP-49932)

SSL It! 1.4.0

4 June 2020

  • In Plesk for Windows, significantly decreased a number of cases when the extension cannot issue a Let’s Encrypt certificate because the HTTP-01 challenge cannot be passed. To achieve this, we made the common challenge directory support turned on by default. This features has been already introduced in Plesk for Linux for quite some time. Now it works for Windows as well.

Note: If necessary, you can turn off the common challenge directory support via the CLI. However, we recommend that you always keep the support on.

  • The extension can now secure webmail on domains without web hosting.

  • Redesigned the extension’s icons to make them more in tune with the Plesk Obsidian style.
  • For non-Let’s Encrypt certificates, added the “Suggest renewing” indicator on a domain card. The indicator means that an SSL/TLS certificate is about to expire and the extension cannot renew it automatically. We suggest that users renew the certificate manually in due time.
  • When a domain is secured with a custom SSL/TLS certificate, the domain’s security status is now identified correctly. (EXTSSLIT-784)
  • When a domain has only its www alias secured (for example, only www.example.com is secured but not example.com), the “Domain with the “www” prefix` option” is no longer marked as not secured. (EXTSSLIT-802)
  • Significantly sped up Plesk search on servers that have a large number of subscriptions (more than 100) and the extension installed. (EXTSSLIT-806)
  • Cleaned up the code executed after a user clicks to issue or renew an SSL/TLS certificate. The extenion no longer shows the “Get it free” button instead of “Renew” and the “No CA plugins available” message by mistake. (EXTSSLIT-832)

To access this feature, use the “Connect Beta” button on the WordPress website list and provide your WordPress administrator credentials. This feature is a part of the overall Remote Management functionality, so it’s available only for Server Administrators as a beta feature.
  • WordPress websites are now put into quarantine if WordPress Toolkit is not able to properly access certain important files. WordPress Toolkit could not manage such websites previously, since WordPress installation list froze if these websites were encountered. This should also address issues with connecting remote servers with such websites.
  • WordPress Toolkit now provides more information about broken websites to help users identify the website and troubleshoot the problem.
  • Remote Management functionality was improved and updated based on the user feedback.
  • Clone and Copy Data operations now handle absolute paths in WordPress database. (EXTWPTOOLK-2601)

  • Rollback of security measures that modify wp-config.php file won’t have a chance of breaking the WordPress website anymore. (EXTWPTOOLK-2824)
  • There was a small chance that WordPress website could be accidentally deleted due to inconsistency of WordPress Toolkit database. It would be very painful, so this chance was extinguished. (EXTWPTOOLK-2686)
  • Remote Management feature now checks if PHP interpreter on remote server has all required PHP extensions before trying to connect the website. (EXTWPTOOLK-2677)
  • Remote Management feature now displays a proper error message if SSH key contents are not valid. (EXTWPTOOLK-2729)
  • Customers with multiple subscriptions can now install WordPress on one of them if another subscription does not have the “Database server selection” permission enabled. (EXTWPTOOLK-1940)
  • If you were constantly seeing the confusing “Unable to find the task responsible for the currently running update process. Try running the update again.” message when trying to run the updates, you can breathe a sigh of relief now, as we have identified and fixed the root cause of this annoying behavior. (EXTWPTOOLK-2694)
  • It’s now possible to clone WordPress located in a particular directory to a directory with the same name in a new subdomain. (EXTWPTOOLK-2906)
  • Users should no longer see the “Something went wrong” error when trying to select a domain during the cloning. (EXTWPTOOLK-2823)
  • WordPress Toolkit no longer tries to activate themes installed through a set. (EXTWPTOOLK-2621)
  • Major WordPress autoupdates no longer fail due to timeout. (EXTWPTOOLK-2925)
  • Customers won’t be seeing the empty “Plugin/theme set” menu during the WordPress installation if the “Allow customers to use sets when they install WordPress” global option is turned off. (EXTWPTOOLK-2692)
  • Server Administrators, on the other hand, will be seeing the proper contents of the “Plugin/theme set” menu during the WordPress installation if the “Allow customers to use sets when they install WordPress” global option is turned off. (EXTWPTOOLK-2693)
  • Users can now clone WordPress installations located in a subdirectory to the virtual folder root of their subscription. (EXTWPTOOLK-2939)

SSL It! 1.0.0

28 May 2019

  • Introduced a number of options, which are now available on Websites & Domains > your domain > SSL/TLS Certificates. It is now possible to:

  • Enhance the security of your website’s visitors by setting up a permanent, SEO-safe 301 redirect from the insecure HTTP to the secure HTTPS version of the website. To do so, turn on “Redirect from http to https”.

  • (Plesk Obsidian) Enhance the security of webmail connections by setting up a permanent, SEO-safe 301 redirect from the insecure HTTP to the secure HTTPS webmail connections. To do so, turn on “Redirect from http to https”. The webmail protection will be then applied by default. On Plesk Obsidian for Windows, the redirect to HTTPS for webmail connections is enabled by default and no corresponding checkbox is shown in the interface.

  • (Plesk Onyx for Linux, Plesk Obsidian) Protect your website’s visitors by prohibiting web browsers from accessing the website via insecure HTTP connections. To do so, make sure that your website runs on HTTPS and is secured with an SSL/TLS certificate valid during the selected time period, and then turn on HSTS.

  • Ensure that each domain, subdomain, domain alias, and webmail belonging to the subscription is secured with a free valid certificate from Let’s Encrypt. To achieve this, SSL It! can reissue an existing Let’s Encrypt certificate or replace an invalid certificate (expired of self-signed) with a valid one from Let’s Encrypt. To get peace of mind by receiving this all-round protection, turn on the “Keep websites secured” option.

  • Get evaluation of your SSL configuration from SSL Labs, one of the most popular testing services. Go to the “Run SSL Labs Test” link to check how good the SSL protection of your website is, receive recommendations what can be improved, and follow them to get the highest possible score, A+. By improving your website rank in SSL Labs Test, you improve your website rank in Google.

  • Easily upgrade your certificate if it is about to expire or a more advanced certificate is available (OV or EV) by clicking the “Upgrade certificate” button.

  • (Plesk for Linux) OCSP Stapling can now be turned on and off for websites served by nginx with Apache or solely nginx.

Note: OCSP Stapling may not work for certificates from certain vendors (for example, free certificates from DigiCert) if the complete trust chain is not in place. To check if your certificate supports OCSP stapling, run the SSL Labs test of your SSL configuration by going to Websites & Domains > your domain > SSL/TLS Certificates and clicking “Run SSL Labs Test” link.

  • (Plesk for Linux) It is now possible to enhance the security of connections encrypted with SSL/TLS certificates (website, mail, Plesk, and so on) by choosing the configuration of TLS protocols and ciphers (generated by Mozilla), which will be used by Plesk. Not to lag behind, synchronize with the Mozilla service once every few months by clicking “Sync Now”.
  • The domain screen in Websites & Domains now informs about the security status of a domain by showing a text message next to the SSL It! icon. The message can be “Domain not secured”, “Webmail not secured”, and others. Try to get the “Safe and sound!” message, which means all domain’s components are secured and TLS-related options are configured.
  • It is now possible to customize the list of SSL/TLS certificates available for order in SSL It! via the panel.ini file. To know which panel.ini settings to edit, install the Panel.ini Editor extension and see the description column of settings under the ext-sslit section.
  • Added descriptions of new SSL It! settings to Panel.ini Editor. Plesk administrators can use these settings to customize the appearance and configuration of SSL It!. (EXTSSLIT-295)
  • SSL It! can now automatically renew free certificates from Symantec. (EXTSSLIT-71)
  • If a certificate secures a domain plus a subdomain that is an alias for the domain (alias.example.com), the certificate is now correctly automatically renewed without excluding the alias SAN. (EXTSSLIT-513)
  • If the Plesk database contains a corrupted certificate, SSL It! no longer fails with the 500 Internal Server Error. (EXTSSLIT-445)
  • The webmail client of an add-on domain is no longer changed to the client of the main domain (or even disabled if webmail was disabled for the main domain) when any of the following actions are done to the SSL/TLS certificate of the main domain: issuing, manual or automatic renewal, enabling “Keep websites secured”, or unassigning. (EXTSSLIT-173)

Let’s Encrypt 2.8.0

28 May 2019

  • ACMEv2 is now used by default. It makes issuing wildcard certificates also available by default with no need to additionally configure the extension to support ACMEv2.
  • If ACMEv2 is used, certificates that secure a domain plus webmail are now automatically renewed even if webmail is disabled for the domain.
  • If the Plesk database contains a corrupted certificate, the “Keep websites secured” option and the automatic renewal of certificates now work for all certificates except the corrupted one. (EXTLETSENC-681)
  • Access to Plesk Obsidian Preview via 443 port is now automatically secured with a free Let’s Encrypt after the Let’s Encrypt extension is installed (manually or automatically during Plesk installation). (EXTLETSENC-679)
  • If the Let’s Encrypt extension fails to issue or renew certificates, Let’s Encrypt challenge tokens no longer pile up and slow down the speed of backing up and restoration. The challenge tokens are now automatically deleted after a defined period of time. (EXTLETSENC-676)
  • The extension no longer suggests securing webmail if mail management functions are disabled in Plesk. (EXTLETSENC-674)
  • A corrupted certificate in the Plesk database no longer causes unclear error messages in the Let’s Encrypt interface. (EXTLETSENC-659)
  • Improved the error message shown when there is an attempt to issue a Let’s Encrypt certificate for a website that cannot pass HTTP challenge. (EXTLETSENC-653)
  • The Plesk mail server can now be secured with ECDSA certificates. (EXTLETSENC-650)
  • If debug logging was enabled and then the Let’s Encrypt extension was installed while SSL It! was not, excessive messages informing that SSL It! was not installed are no longer shown in logs. (EXTLETSENC-641)
  • ECDSA certificates no longer occasionally fail to be issued and installed. (EXTLETSENC-640)
  • ECDSA certificates can now be issued for IDN domains. (EXTLETSENC-636)
  • If a certificate secures a domain plus a subdomain that is an alias for the domain (alias.example.com), the certificate is now correctly automatically renewed without excluding the alias SAN. (EXTLETSENC-626)
  • The “Secure with an SSL/TLS Certificate” section is no longer shown when wildcard subdomains are created because Let’s Encrypt cannot secure them. (EXTLETSENC-612)
  • The “Keep websites secured” option no longer unnecessarily reissues certificates trying to secure SANs (subdomains, domain aliases, or webmail) that do not exist or cannot pass HTTP challenge. “Keep websites secured” now checks if there are available SANs that can be secured and only then issues a certificate to secure them. (EXTLETSENC-571)
  • A wildcard certificate issued for the main domain no longer occasionally fails to secure a subdomain of the domain. (EXTLETSENC-550)
  • Configured Docker Proxy Rules can no longer hinder the performance of the Let’s Encrypt extension. (EXTLETSENC-11)

DigiCert SSL 1.6.0

28 May 2019

  • It is now possible to add and manage DNS records (including TTL) in a DNS zone via REST API.

  • Revamped the “Add Subscription” and “Add Domain” pages to make them consistent with other Plesk UX elements:

  • The “Webspace settings” section is now pre-filled and collapsed.

  • By default, Plesk now hides the Let’s Encrypt and Git sections when users create subscriptions, domains, and subdomains. To make the sections visible, add the following lines to the panel.ini file:

ext-sslit enableSecuringNewDomain = true ; shows the “Secure with an SSL/TLS Certificate” section secure-new-domain = true ; makes the “Secure the domain with Let’s Encrypt” checkbox selected by default ext-git enableOnSiteCreate = true ; shows the “Your Files to Copy to Hosting” section

  • nginx now returns a 404 Not Found error when requesting a non-existent static file larger than 1023 bytes whose URL contains a trailing slash. (PPP-53248)
  • Disabling a domain whose webmail service was uninstalled no longer generates an incorrect webmail configuration. (PPPM-12984)
  • Removing the /usr/local/psa/PMM/rsessions directory and then going to Backup Manager no longer prevents further backup restoration and download of restoration logs. (PPPM-12785)

WordPress Toolkit 5.4.0

26 April 2021

  • WordPress Toolkit now saves a log of important actions it performs on managed websites. Logs are written in plain text and stored on each domain in the following format: /logs/wpt_action_logs/action_log_#SITE_UUID#.log.

  • Cloning backend was fully redesigned for improved security and performance.

  • Workflow related to wp-cron management was redesigned:

  • The option was renamed to “Take over wp-cron.php” to avoid the classic “enable to disable” confusion.

  • It is now possible to explicitly choose if a replacement cronjob should be created or not via “Create a replacement task when takeover is initiated” switch.

  • Replacement cronjobs are now way less strict in regards to user modifications. If WordPress Toolkit cannot find its cronjob, it will not try to recreate the cronjob, concluding that it was knowingly modified or removed by user.

  • If user has butchered or removed the replacement cronjob by mistake, it can be recreated by switching off and on the corresponding “Create a replacement…” switch.

  • WordPress Toolkit now displays actual status of SSL/TLS support and certificate on a site card. If any issues are found, WordPress Toolkit provides a suggestion on how to fix them.

  • Added installation state as a separate column to the CLI site list output.

  • WordPress Toolkit now supports AlmaLinux OS on both Plesk and cPanel.

  • Improved pagination on website list.

  • Progress display in windows was standardized and unified for better experience.

  • Various warnings and notifications related to problematic PHP versions were improved and made more consistent.

  • Minimal WordPress version that can be installed via WordPress Toolkit was increased to WP v4.9.

  • Cloning can now properly handle URLs with encoded forward slash in database tables. (EXTWPTOOLK-6292)

  • Cloning no longer fails if WordPress directories do not have proper access permissions. (EXTWPTOOLK-3089)

  • WordPress Toolkit no longer confuses users by telling them they have no sites installed when the site list is empty due to applied filters. (EXTWPTOOLK-6155)

  • The list of themes is now properly refreshed after a theme is manually uploaded and activated from the global “Themes” tab. (EXTWPTOOLK-4372)

  • It is now possible again to use Log in functionality in Safari running on iOS devices. (EXTWPTOOLK-6412)

  • Thanks to the new ghostbusting algorithm, orphaned tasks left by killed processes or rebooted server no longer haunt users in the interface. (EXTWPTOOLK-6326)

  • Default autoupdate options for minor WordPress releases starting with WordPress 5.6 are now set correctly. (EXTWPTOOLK-6579)

  • WordPress Toolkit auto-updates management permission in Plesk now works properly again. (EXTWPTOOLK-6039)

  • WordPress Toolkit no longer sends email notifications about available updates after automatically installing these updates. Opinions vary on whether this was a user trolling algorithm or a split personality algorithm. (EXTWPTOOLK-6077)

Plesk Obsidian 18.0.35

20 April 2021

  • In File Manager, it is now possible to do the following:

  • Upload directories.

  • (Plesk for Linux) Change file permissions recursively. Plesk for Windows has always supported that.

  • File Manager can now display SVG files.

  • Improved the interface of Dynamic List view. It is now easier to distinguish one domain card from another because we made the separating lines more distinct.

  • Reduced the domain creation time by four seconds. To achieve this, we split the mail service creation into a separate task.

  • Improved the “Add Domain” page. Plesk now automatically fills in the system user name and password boxes. We have also removed the password confirmation box.

  • The “Mail Settings” page of domains now shows a hint how to enable DKIM signing for an external DNS server. The hint shows the exact DNS records users need to add to the DNS server.

  • It is now possible to get information about subdomains via the CLI or REST API. (PPPM-12825)

  • Enabling the mail service via the CLI for a subdomain no longer creates the Plesk database inconsistency. (PPPM-12836)

  • Disabling the domain resolution check in panel.ini now hides the “Domain is not resolvable” message under “DNS Settings” of domains. (PPPM-12891)

  • The window shown after closing the Change View item in the left navigation pane now contains a correct text instead of placeholders. (PPPM-12863)

  • It is no longer possible to cause the Plesk database inconsistency by deleting an IP address assigned to a subscription without hosing. (PPPM-12876)

  • Introduced a new CLI command –assign-database, which assigns a database created via the API to a domain. (PPP-52056) The command has the following pattern:

plesk bin subscription_settings –assign-database <domain_name> -database-id <database-id>

  • The “DNS settings” page of a subscription no longer fails to be opened with HTTP Error 500 if the Plesk database inconsistency occurs. (PPPM-12877)
  • Plesk can now restore backups of subdomains that belong to a domain with the forwarding hosting type. (PPPM-12903)
  • Improved a hint for creating temporary domains. The previous hint was incorrect and could mislead users into specifying a temporary domain name that did not work. (PPPM-12883)
  • Updating to Plesk Obsidian no longer fails if the /var/www/vhosts/ permissions are not sufficient. (PPPM-12872)
  • Removing an APS application can no longer cause the Plesk database inconsistency. (PPPM-12902)
  • The “DNS Settings” page of a non-resolvable domain can no longer show the “Unable to find subscription” error instead of a warning that the domain name does not resolve to the server IP address. (PPPM-12871)
  • The Plesk interface can no longer occasionally show the “Cannot read property ‘querySelector’ of null” error. (PPPM-12884)
  • If a service plan has the “Switch on the mail service” and “Enable mail autodiscover” mail settings disabled, subscriptions created on the basis of the service plan now inherit these disabled mail settings. (PPPM-12879)
  • Improved a confusing error message. When users try to remove an IP address used by the mail server, Plesk no longer incorrectly notifies that the IP address is used for hosting. (PPPM-7984)
  • If “DNS Helper” is enabled and an add-on domain has an alias, panel.log no longer contains confusing error messages. (PPPM-12906)
  • The plesk repair utility now detects issues with domains assigned to already removed IP addresses and suggests reassigning the domains to existing IP addresses. (PPPM-12865)
  • Improved a message shown after a Plesk password reset. (PPPM-12677)
  • File Manager can now display the content of files whose names contain Cyrillic characters. (PPPM-12897)
  • The pmmcli utility now ignores Error 152 and shows the path to the imported backup dump because the error does not actually affect the backup dump import. (PPP-52707)
  • The pmm-ras utility no longer creates archives and migration.log in the current working directory. The utility now creates migration.log in PMM_LOGS_D if the –session-path is not specified. The utility operation before the bugfix could occasionally cause server backups to fail. (PPPM-11752)
  • Sped up loading of lists with a large number of domains (more than 1000). (PPPM-12689)

Linux

  • Plesk can now be installed on AlmaLinux OS.

Note: You can now in-place convert your Plesk server on CentOS 8 to AlmaLinux OS. To do so, run the script prepared by the AlmaLinux team on your CentOS 8 server.

  • Dropped support for Ubuntu 16.04.
  • Improved an error message shown when IP addresses registered in Plesk do not match those set up on the server and this mismatch caused an issue with the web server. The message now contains the link to the KB article with the steps on how to fix the issue.
  • Updating Plesk 18.0.33 and earlier to the latest Plesk version no longer causes Plesk Premium Antivirus to start sending false notifications that a Plesk Premium Antivirus license will expire soon. (PPP-52338)
  • Mail delivery to IDN emails no longer fails. (PPPM-12866)
  • Removed an unnecessary test run during Plesk installation. The failed test created a log warning message with a recommendation to check the network configuration. The test result affected neither Plesk installation nor performance. (PPP-41762)
  • Plesk now preserves the following custom settings of the php-fpm-pool-settings section in additional php.ini directives: chroot, clear_env, decorate_workers_output. (PPPM-12666)
  • phpMyAdmin can no longer show strange users without passwords (for example, the user “Any”). (PPPM-12793)
  • An IP address change can no longer fail because of unfinished MySQL initialization. (PPPM-12464)
  • A Plesk daily maintenance task can no longer replace Dr.Web Antivirus packages with those from Plesk Premium Antivirus. (PPPM-12850)
  • The official configuration of WordPress permalinks now works if nginx and PHP-FPM are used in tandem. (PPPM-12817)
  • If PHP-FPM is served by nginx in Apache+nginx hosting, custom error documents for PHP scripts now work. (PPPM-12815)
  • An add-on plan with disabled PHP settings can no longer affect the PHP settings of a subscription created based on the plan. (PPPM-12864)
  • The Fail2ban configuration issues can no longer prevent users from creating subscriptions. (PPPM-12045)
  • Scheduled tasks with the Null attribute no longer prevent Plesk from restoring server backups. (PPPM-12912)
  • When installing or updating Plesk, Plesk Installer can now detect and warn about unsupported Debian and Ubuntu repositories present on the server. (PPPM-12834)
  • Plesk Installer no longer occasionally shows that the MySQL server component can be updated instead of actually updating the component. (PPPM-12658)
  • Plesk can now check incoming mail by processing SPF TXT records that contain up to 1024 mechanisms. (PPPM-8103)
  • In Plesk on CloudLinux, the “Server Information” page in Tools & Settings can no longer show the Internal Server Error 500. (PPPM-11898)
  • Plesk now correctly counts statistics for an add-on domain not including statistics for the domain with the same name as the add-on domain (if any). (PPPM-12577)

Windows

  • For an external SMTP server used with Plesk, it is now possible to use a non-email username instead of a full email address (for example, just “mail” instead of “[email protected]”). (PPPM-12896)
  • The Plesk Installer output now shows all characters of a package version. (PPPM-12842)
  • Removed a warning message about a 900-second delay after a PHP version change. (PPPM-12831)
  • If SmarterMail 100 is used, Plesk no longer backs up emails of domains whose mail service is disabled and warns about it. (PPPM-12522)
  • If the Windows system locale language is not English, Plesk no longer skips a subscription’s mail when backing up the subscription. (PPPM-12874)
  • It is now again possible to train SpamAssassin because SpamAssassin Imap.php no longer tries to connect to the localhost using TLS. (PPPM-12086)
  • Improved error reporting if backup creation fails with the “Failed to create archive: Repository error”. (PPPM-12697)

fileManager trash.enabled = true trash.folder = .trash ; the name of the the Recycle Bin folder The Recycle Bin appears when a user deletes a file and chooses not to delete it permanently.

  • The “DNS Helper” and “Publicly resolvable temporary domain name” features introduced in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.32 will be enabled by default strating with Plesk Obsidian 18.0.34. To disable the features, add the following lines to the panel.ini file:

dns enableResolveChecking = false ; disables resolve checking showDnsHelper = false ; hides DNS Helper techDomain subdomain.enabled = false ; removes the ability to create technical domains

  • Even if no DNS server is installed, Plesk will now show the information about configuring DNS for domains that could not be resolved.

  • Plesk sw-engine now correctly uses the system time zone defined in Tools & Settings > System time (under “General Settings”) As a result, after the system time zone was changed, sw-engine now operates in the correct time zone and writes log entries that have the correct time. (PPPM-12543)
  • In the output of the secret_key CLI utility, changed the “Key” field name to “Key ID” to avoid user confusion. (PPP-52085)

  • After updating Plesk Onyx 17.8 on Ubuntu with Postfix installed to Plesk Obsidian, the Postfix logs no longer contain compatibility warnings. (PPP-46809)
  • DHE ciphers are now again available for sw-cp-server and nginx. (PPPM-11435)
  • Plesk now regards PHP 8 as a secure handler. A change of the service plan PHP version from 7.4 to 8.0 no longer causes the “Conflicts with the server-wide security policy” message to be shown. (PPPM-12731)

WordPress Toolkit 5.3.0

15 February 2021

  • The wp-cli utility was updated to the latest version, so WordPress Toolkit now works on PHP 8. Yay! On the other hand, minimum PHP version supported by WordPress Toolkit is now PHP 5.4, so websites working on PHP 5.2 and PHP 5.3 cannot be managed by WordPress Toolkit anymore.
  • WordPress Toolkit now supports new autoupdate defaults introduced in WordPress 5.6. Autoupdate settings on new WP 5.6 installations are now set to “major and minor updates” by default. Existing WordPress installations updated to version 5.6 will keep their previous autoupdate settings.
  • New WordPress 5.6 installations managed by WordPress Toolkit are not using the WP_AUTO_UPDATE_CORE constant for configuring autoupdate settings anymore. Existing WordPress installations updated to 5.6 will keep the constant in wp-config.php file until autoupdate settings are changed. The only exception to both these cases is complete disabling of all autoupdates, which will still require WordPress Toolkit to add the constant to wp-config.php.
  • WordPress Toolkit now identifies and visually marks websites using unsupported version of WordPress, outdated (EOLed) version of PHP, or unsupported version of PHP.
  • It is now possible to clone websites with defined DEFINER clause in the database dump. If you were ever given issue ID EXTWPTOOLK-946 by our support team for tracking purposes, it’s time to rejoice.
  • WordPress Toolkit no longer adds WP_AUTO_UPDATE_CORE constant to wp-config.php file during operations not initiated by the customer (like checks for availability of updates, and so on). This constant will be added only after site admin has explicitly modified WordPress autoupdate settings.
  • WordPress Toolkit now tries its best to create site screenshots for quarantined and otherwise unsupported sites.
  • Site list loading speed was increased.
  • WordPress sites with very long rows in the database can now be properly cloned. (EXTWPTOOLK-939)
  • Plugins are now installed with locale matching current WordPress site locale, if possible. (EXTWPTOOLK-5167)
  • WordPress Toolkit can now properly work with sites that have filters and closing PHP tags in wp-config.php. (EXTWPTOOLK-4104)
  • It is now possible to clone sites with large database tables without encountering the “Got packet bigger than ‘max_allowed_packet’ when dumping table” error. (EXTWPTOOLK-5778)
  • It should now be possible to clone sites with huge (>10 GB) database tables without encountering the 504 error when opening the cloning screen. (EXTWPTOOLK-5154)
  • The field formerly known as Login URL had its name and hint text updated to clarify that you don’t need to specify the full URL here, only the suffix. (EXTWPTOOLK-6107)
  • It is now possible to copy data from a site if it has files containing spaces in their names. (EXTWPTOOLK-6360)
  • WordPress Toolkit now displays a nicer error message when it cannot install the remote management plugin on a site due to upload_max_filesize restrictions on a remote server. (EXTWPTOOLK-6157)
  • Maintenance log no longer contains exceptions if there’s at least one remote site connected via plugin on the server. (EXTWPTOOLK-6083)
  • Advisor measure “Turn on security autoupdates” can now be applied even if certain sites in the list are broken. (EXTWPTOOLK-6208)

Plesk Email Security 1.1.11

27 January 2021

Linux

  • Added an option to change the number of concurrent Amavis processes to the server settings. The default number is 10. Adjust it according to the server activity, available resources, and your MySQL configuration. If the number is too low, then not all emails can be processed directly on a busy server. If the number is too high, then a high load may occur on the MySQL database.

Note: A change of the number restarts Amavis and Postfix.

  • Added the forced expiry check call (the –force-expire option) to the daily Bayes train cron. The call forces the database sync and the expiry run.
  • Added a check for Sieve rules containing the “X-Spam-Flag” keyword to avoid conflicts with the rule necessary for the extension.

  • It is now possible to create DNS records that contain placeholders in the middle. (PPPM-12521)
  • If a Plesk license was terminated on a server, the customers no longer receive daily repetitive notifications of resource overuse. (PPPM-12636)
  • It is now possible to use the Amazon RDS Integration with MariaDB engine. (PPPM-12645)

  • If web statistics are not generated properly, customers can now understand why because AWStats errors are now logged and customers can see them in the panel.log file (if the show.util_exec_io setting is set to true in the panel.ini file). (PPPM-9832)
  • Plesk administrators can no longer set a rule in the Plesk Firewall that blocks themselves and, as a result, can no longer lose access to the Plesk interface. (PPPM-12469)
  • The server shutdown in Tools & Settings > Shut Down Server (under “Server Management”) is now executed immediately on the same page after confirmation. The server can no longer be shut down twice if the Plesk administrator kept the shutdown link in the browser and refreshed it after the first shutdown. (PPPM-12091)
  • In ModSecurity, the switch from the Atomic Standard to the Comodo rule set no longer causes false-positive bans. (PPPM-12291)

Plesk Obsidian 18.0.32

8 December 2020

  • PHP 8.0 is now supported.

Note: PHP 8 is still very recent (it came out on November 26) and includes significant changes, including the removal of deprecated functions and changes to how code works.

Because of this, many PHP applications that were written for PHP 5 and PHP 7 may not work correctly with PHP 8. This includes WordPress, which will fix most (but not all) PHP 8 compatibility issues in version 5.6 that will be released on December 8.

PHP 8 will not be included into the “Recommended” installation set and won’t be installed on new servers or when updating to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.32.

  • DNS Helper - a new feature meant to help users understand that their domain does not resolve to the server’s IP address and is inaccessible over the internet, and also to make it easier for them to make their domain resolve correctly. The feature will be rolled out to Plesk servers in waves. To enable it manually, add the following lines to the panel.ini file:

dns enableResolveChecking = true showDnsHelper = true

  • Added a new CLI command plesk checkupgrade in both Plesk for Linux and Plesk for Windows. Running the command before updating Plesk checks for issues that may prevent the server from updating safely.

  • Added the support for ModSecurity 3 to nginx. ModSecurity 2.9 + Apache remains for now the recommended option. To switch to ModSecurity 3 + nginx, go to “Tools&Settings” > “Web Application firewall”.

  • Switching to ModSecurity 3 may hinder your existing applications. We strongly recommend trying ModSecurity 3 out on a test server before switching your production environment to that version.

  • At the moment you can only choose the OWASP ruleset in the Plesk UI for ModSecurity 3. You can download the Comodo ruleset and upload it to Plesk as a custom ruleset. We plan to make it possible to enable the Comodo ruleset for ModSecurity 3 directly from the Plesk UI in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.33.

  • You can disable switching to ModSecurity 3 by adding the following lines to the panel.ini file:

modSecurity webServer.nginx = Off

  • This version introduces a guided onboarding workflow to help new users create their first website right after the new server initialization stage. Users can choose to start with a WordPress website, a PHP application, or a static HTML/CSS website. They can upload a website they already have or choose a sample website provided with Plesk. To disable this function, add the following lines to the panel.ini file:

ext-onboarding enabled = 0

  • As of Plesk Obsidian 18.0.32, Internet Explorer 11 support has been deprecated and will be removed in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.33. Learn more.
  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 has entered the vendor end of support phase. Plesk Obsidian 18.0.32 is the last Plesk Obsidian version that supports that OS. Learn more.
  • The File Sharing and Bandwidth Limiting (mod_bw) component has been removed. Learn more.
  • The UX of renaming websites in Plesk has been improved.
  • A publicly resolvable temporary domain name can now be chosen during a website’s creation. The temporary domain name allows you to start working on a new project even if you have no registered domain name. The feature will be rolled out to Plesk servers in waves. To enable it manually, add the following lines to the panel.ini file:

Third-Party Component Updates

Linux

  • Updated PHP used by sw-engine to version 7.3.25.
  • Updated ionCube loader for PHP 7.2, 7.3, 7.4, and also for PHP used by Plesk to version 10.4.5.

Windows

  • ASP.NET Core 5.0 is now supported.
  • Updated ASP.NET Core 3.1 to version 3.1.10.
  • Updated ASP.NET Core 2.1 to version 2.1.23.
  • Updated PHP used by plesk-engine to version 7.4.13.
  • Updated MariaDB 10.5 to version 10.5.8.
  • Updated MariaDB 10.3 to version 10.3.27.
  • Updated Node.js 12 to version 12.19.1.
  • Updated Git to version 2.29.2.2.

8 December 2020

  • PHP 8.0 is now supported.

Note: PHP 8 is still very recent (it came out on November 26) and includes significant changes, including the removal of deprecated functions and changes to how code works.

Because of this, many PHP applications that were written for PHP 5 and PHP 7 may not work correctly with PHP 8. This includes WordPress, which will fix most (but not all) PHP 8 compatibility issues in version 5.6 that will be released on December 8.

PHP 8 will not be included into the “Recommended” installation set and won’t be installed on new servers or when updating to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.32.

  • DNS Helper - a new feature meant to help users understand that their domain does not resolve to the server’s IP address and is inaccessible over the internet, and also to make it easier for them to make their domain resolve correctly. The feature will be rolled out to Plesk servers in waves. To enable it manually, add the following lines to the panel.ini file:

dns enableResolveChecking = true showDnsHelper = true

  • Added a new CLI command plesk checkupgrade in both Plesk for Linux and Plesk for Windows. Running the command before updating Plesk checks for issues that may prevent the server from updating safely.

  • Added the support for ModSecurity 3 to nginx. ModSecurity 2.9 + Apache remains for now the recommended option. To switch to ModSecurity 3 + nginx, go to “Tools&Settings” > “Web Application firewall”.

  • Switching to ModSecurity 3 may hinder your existing applications. We strongly recommend trying ModSecurity 3 out on a test server before switching your production environment to that version.

  • At the moment you can only choose the OWASP ruleset in the Plesk UI for ModSecurity 3. You can download the Comodo ruleset and upload it to Plesk as a custom ruleset. We plan to make it possible to enable the Comodo ruleset for ModSecurity 3 directly from the Plesk UI in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.33.

  • You can disable switching to ModSecurity 3 by adding the following lines to the panel.ini file:

modSecurity webServer.nginx = Off

  • This version introduces a guided onboarding workflow to help new users create their first website right after the new server initialization stage. Users can choose to start with a WordPress website, a PHP application, or a static HTML/CSS website. They can upload a website they already have or choose a sample website provided with Plesk. To disable this function, add the following lines to the panel.ini file:

ext-onboarding enabled = 0

  • As of Plesk Obsidian 18.0.32, Internet Explorer 11 support has been deprecated and will be removed in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.33. Learn more.
  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 has entered the vendor end of support phase. Plesk Obsidian 18.0.32 is the last Plesk Obsidian version that supports that OS. Learn more.
  • The File Sharing and Bandwidth Limiting (mod_bw) component has been removed. Learn more.
  • The UX of renaming websites in Plesk has been improved.
  • A publicly resolvable temporary domain name can now be chosen during a website’s creation. The temporary domain name allows you to start working on a new project even if you have no registered domain name. The feature will be rolled out to Plesk servers in waves. To enable it manually, add the following lines to the panel.ini file:

WordPress Toolkit 5.0.0

30 September 2020

  • Two words: interface update! No need to worry, though, as the new UI for managing WordPress sites is a logical evolution of the old UI based on newer technologies. Site administrators will find themselves in a fresh-yet-familiar interface with increased focus on site updates, better UX, improved performance and responsiveness.

  • WordPress Toolkit Lite experience (applicable for owners of Plesk Web Admin edition) has been redesigned to prettify it and make it more uniform across different screens.

  • The list of features available in WPT Lite was updated to make it more consistent and logical:

  • Management of Search Engine Indexing is now available for free in WPT Lite

  • Debugging management is now available for free in WPT Lite

  • Password Protection is now available for free in WPT Lite

  • Update settings for individual sites are now available for free in WPT Lite

  • Upload of plugins & themes in the plugins / themes management is now available for free in WPT Lite

  • Mass update operations (including modification of update settings for multiple sites at once) are now available only in the full (paid) version of WPT

  • Starting with version 5.0, WordPress Toolkit requires Plesk Obsidian to work. Existing WordPress Toolkit installations on Plesk Onyx 17.8 will continue to function, but will no longer receive feature updates. Critical security fixes for WordPress Toolkit on Plesk Onyx 17.8 will continue to be delivered until Plesk Onyx 17.8 reaches end-of-life. We strongly recommend updating to Plesk Obsidian for the best Plesk and WordPress Toolkit experience.

  • Branding of default maintenance mode template was updated. It now mentions being powered by WordPress Toolkit instead of Plesk.

  • Restoration of backup files no longer fails if they contain some files with read-only permissions. (EXTWPTOOLK-5561)

  • Websites are no longer getting stuck in maintenance mode under certain mysterious circumstances after being updated. (EXTWPTOOLK-5531)

  • Checkboxes are no longer missing on Security and Updates screens on Safari. (EXTWPTOOLK-5396)

  • Other checkboxes were not missing on Safari, but they were not aligned properly, so this was fixed as well. (EXTWPTOOLK-5367)

  • WordPres Toolkit now properly updates site URL when a WordPress site is hosted on a subdomain and the main domain is renamed. (EXTWPTOOLK-2268)

  • Smart Updates no longer compare shortcode values, avoiding certain false positives during the analysis. Shortcode names are still compared. (EXTWPTOOLK-4618)

  • Backup / Restore functionality is no longer displayed as available for sites connected via remote management plugin (because it was never actually available, mind you, not because we removed the feature). (EXTWPTOOLK-5446)

  • WordPress Toolkit now displays a helpful hint for Firefox users with enabled pop-up blockers trying to log in to WordPress via WPT. Unsurprisingly, the hint is: turn off pop-up blocker on this page if you want to log in to WordPress via WPT. (EXTWPTOOLK-5634)

Note: this feature isn’t available on Plesk 17.8 Onyx for Windows.

  • Security improvements.

SSL It! 1.4.0

4 June 2020

  • In Plesk for Windows, significantly decreased a number of cases when the extension cannot issue a Let’s Encrypt certificate because the HTTP-01 challenge cannot be passed. To achieve this, we made the common challenge directory support turned on by default. This features has been already introduced in Plesk for Linux for quite some time. Now it works for Windows as well.

Note: If necessary, you can turn off the common challenge directory support via the CLI. However, we recommend that you always keep the support on.

  • The extension can now secure webmail on domains without web hosting.
  • The CLI can now manage wildcard certificates issue and turning on and off HSTS. To see details, use the plesk ext sslit –help command.
  • Added cache to store domains’ security status. In certain cases, it speeds up the loading of the extension’s domain screen.
  • Redesigned the extension’s icons to make them more in tune with the Plesk Obsidian style.
  • For non-Let’s Encrypt certificates, added the “Suggest renewing” indicator on a domain card. The indicator means that an SSL/TLS certificate is about to expire and the extension cannot renew it automatically. We suggest that users renew the certificate manually in due time.
  • When a domain is secured with a custom SSL/TLS certificate, the domain’s security status is now identified correctly. (EXTSSLIT-784)
  • When a domain has only its www alias secured (for example, only www.example.com is secured but not example.com), the “Domain with the “www” prefix` option” is no longer marked as not secured. (EXTSSLIT-802)
  • Significantly sped up Plesk search on servers that have a large number of subscriptions (more than 100) and the extension installed. (EXTSSLIT-806)
  • Cleaned up the code executed after a user clicks to issue or renew an SSL/TLS certificate. The extenion no longer shows the “Get it free” button instead of “Renew” and the “No CA plugins available” message by mistake. (EXTSSLIT-832)

  • Added the warning message shown after users click the “Sync All Zones” button. The warning explains that Plesk will overwrite all DNS records in Route53 with those in Plesk and will remove those DNS records from Route53 that do not exist in Plesk.
  • The extension can now handle 2048-bit DKIM keys. (EXTPLESK-286)

Plesk Obsidian 18.0.26

14 April 2020

  • With this update (18.0.26) Plesk Obsidian is now considered to be a “stable” (late adopter) release.

Late adopter release. By the time this tier becomes available, the latest Plesk version has been out long enough to have most of its nagging issues discovered and fixed. You can be certain that the Plesk version you are about to install has already been used in production environments for some time, and there are no major issues that could compromise the stability of your Plesk servers.

  • Which domain to use to access Plesk via the standard HTTPS port can now be configured via the Plesk GUI. Go to Tools & Settings and look for Customize Plesk URL (under “General Settings”).
  • Domains with the “Forwarding” hosting type now support HTTPS. The support for securing such domains with Let’s Encrypt certificates via the Let’s Encrypt extension will be added later. (PPP-42238)
  • Plesk interface no longer partially fails to load on Plesk Obsidian servers protected by CloudFlare with RocketLoader enabled. Still, we do not recommend using RocketLoader with Plesk, as not only it will not speed up UI rendering, but may slow it down and cause UI to flicker.

(PPPM-11542)
  • The “Activate the mail service” checkbox is no longer shown to customers during domain creation if their service plan does not include access to mail. (PPPM-11626)
  • The date of the last backup is once again correctly written to the “BackupsSettings” table of the Plesk database. (PPPM-11721)
  • Scheduled backups are now properly stored for X weeks instead of X days (X is determined by the value of the “Keep backup files for X weeks” option). (PPPM-11796)

14 April 2020

  • With this update (18.0.26) Plesk Obsidian is now considered to be a “stable” (late adopter) release.

Late adopter release. By the time this tier becomes available, the latest Plesk version has been out long enough to have most of its nagging issues discovered and fixed. You can be certain that the Plesk version you are about to install has already been used in production environments for some time, and there are no major issues that could compromise the stability of your Plesk servers.

  • Which domain to use to access Plesk via the standard HTTPS port can now be configured via the Plesk GUI. Go to Tools & Settings and look for Customize Plesk URL (under “General Settings”).
  • Domains with the “Forwarding” hosting type now support HTTPS. The support for securing such domains with Let’s Encrypt certificates via the Let’s Encrypt extension will be added later. (PPP-42238)
  • Plesk interface no longer partially fails to load on Plesk Obsidian servers protected by CloudFlare with RocketLoader enabled. Still, we do not recommend using RocketLoader with Plesk, as not only it will not speed up UI rendering, but may slow it down and cause UI to flicker.
  • Certain Plesk features (Web Users, Web Presence Builder, and Website Copying) that are hidden in Dynamic View by default can now be returned to the Plesk interface by adding the following lines to the panel.ini file:

dynamicListenableFeatures=webusers, sitebuilder, sitecopy

  • Updated xdebug to version 2.9.4.
  • Updated uuid to version 1.1.0.

  • The “PHP Settings” button is no longer missing in Power User view on Plesk servers with the Restricted Mode turned on, “PHP version and handler management” enabled, and “Hosting settings management”, “Common PHP settings management”, and “Setup of potentially insecure web scripting options that override provider’s policy” disabled. (PPPM-11542)
  • The “Activate the mail service” checkbox is no longer shown to customers during domain creation if their service plan does not include access to mail. (PPPM-11626)

WordPress Toolkit 4.3.0

4 September 2019

  • Smart Update feature has been dramatically redesigned, providing full transparency into the analysis process and streamlining overall user experience.

  • Smart Update failure no longer has a slim chance to accidentally remove the database of the source website under certain rare circumstances. (EXTWPTOOLK-3312)
  • Regular update is no longer stealthily performed instead of Smart Update if WordPress website has enabled password protection. (EXTWPTOOLK-3410)

  • Smart Update now properly cleans up after itself if the procedure went awry. (EXTWPTOOLK-3313 and EXTWPTOOLK-3424)
  • Repeated opening and closing of the Updates window will no longer slow down the system (why would you do that anyway?). (EXTWPTOOLK-2669)

  • WordPress installations that were broken and fixed afterwards can now be updated without errors while they’re still detected as broken by WordPress Toolkit. (EXTWPTOOLK-3147)
  • If some of the items in a batch update were not updated successfully, WordPress Toolkit will now display a proper message, providing the necessary details. (EXTWPTOOLK-3151)
  • Sitemap is now properly cloned and copied with all necessary URL replacements during the corresponding procedure. (EXTWPTOOLK-3425)
  • WordPress Toolkit now verifies the MD5 checksum of the WordPress core package after downloading it. (EXTWPTOOLK-3270)

Plesk Obsidian Release Candidate 3 (RC3 18.0.17)

31 July 2019

  • Users can now try Plesk Obsidian online demos.
  • Introduced new Plesk notifications, which are now shown in a separate pane. To see notifications, click the bell icon in the upper right corner of the screen. Here you can also manage the notifications’ settings. To do so, click the gear icon.

At the moment, the notification pane shows only one notification type (when one of the parameters monitored by Server Health reached the “red” alert level). More notifications are on the way.

  • When Postfix is used, mail.<domain> can now be secured if an SSL/TLS certificate covers it.
  • It is now possible to create a secret key via the CLI or API without specifying the IP address the key will be linked to.
  • Updated Plesk banners (Plesk Welcome screen, Plesk initializing screen, and others) shown when the Obsidian color scheme is selected.
  • A Plesk custom logo and page title can now be installed via the CLI or API.
  • A Plesk edition is no longer shown on the Plesk logo and some other screens. Users can always see a Plesk edition in Tools & Settings > About Plesk (under “Plesk”).
  • Redesigned the website screen in Websites & Domains: removed the duplicated info and made the screen more laconic.
  • File Manager now switches to a correct website, when File Manager is opened via a direct URL. (PPP-41536)
  • Duplicate access controls are no longer shown when adding or updating a database user in Plesk that has remote configuration of database servers. (PPP-43181)
  • If a particular subscription does not have the “Setup of potentially insecure web scripting options that override provider’s policy” permission, a user can now change the subscription’s hosting settings. (PPP-42972)
  • Email aliases with the same name can now be created via the XML-RPC. (PPP-43256)

Linux

  • Mail users now receive email notifications when more than 95% of their mailbox disk space is occupied. The users can also see the information about the mailbox storage disk space, its usage, and limits in the Horde and Roundcube webmail clients.
  • On new Plesk servers, the Poppassd service on TCP port 106 no longer accepts external connections from the Internet.
  • If Postfix is used, an SSL/TLS certificate from Let’s Encrypt (and from other CAs whose certificate files contain the CSR part) can now secure mail for a domain. If you renamed your domain or restored it from a backup and now face issues with your mail for a domain, assign an SSL/TLS certificate to the mail once again. (PPPM-10715)
  • In File Manager, all files can no longer be renamed so that their names contain spaces at the beginning or end (for example, “file “ and “ file”). Previously, if the.htaccess file was renamed this way, a website could work incorrectly. (PPP-43006)
  • The phpMyAdmin interface is now again accessible via the URL /phpmyadmin. (PPP-42510)
  • Improved stability in PHP 7.3.7 and 7.2.20 by fixing the PHP-FPM segmentation faults in fpm_event_epoll_wait. (PPP-43093)
  • The “Maximum bandwidth usage (KB/s)” and “Connections limited to” options on the “Performance” tab of a service plan can no longer be changed if the Apache “bw” module is not enabled. (PPP-43011)

Windows

  • MariaDB is now used as a database server for customers’ websites on new installations of Plesk Obsidian. If you have upgraded to Plesk Obsidian, we strongly recommend that you switch from MySQL to MariaDB. To do so, go to Tools & Settings > Updates > select MariaDB under “MySQL server” and then click Continue. Existing MySQL databases will not be updated anymore even for security reasons, while MariaDB will be updated regularly.
  • Plesk administrators and customers can now choose in which mode IIS will run applications: the default 64-bit mode for new applications or optional 32-bit mode for old ones.
  • Plesk administrators can now change the location of the customers’ MySQL data directory in Plesk Reconfigurator.

Plesk Obsidian Release Candidate 2 (RC2 18.0.16)

2 July 2019

  • Plesk administrators can now install the Advanced Monitoring and Grafana extensions on Plesk Obsidian.

Advanced Monitoring is a revamped version of the Server Health Monitor component, which inherits all the component’s features: detailed reports on the server health, on system resources’ usage, and so on. However, Advanced Monitoring displays all server metrics as visually appealing graphs and dashboards by Grafana.

It is possible because Advanced Monitoring works in tandem with Grafana. When you install Advanced Monitoring, Grafana is also automatically installed. If you are an experienced Grafana user, server metrics collected by Advanced Monitoring is not your single source of data. You can also integrate Grafana with other data sources of your choice.

For more information, read the descriptions of the Advanced Monitoring and Grafana extensions in the Extensions Catalog.

  • Plesk users can now move an add-on domain to a new subscription in the Plesk interface (the add-domain will then become the main domain of the subscription).
  • Plesk Administrators can now move an add-on domain to a new subscription via the CLI running the following command:

plesk bin site –move addon_domain.com -login target_login -passwd target_password

  • Added the event “Domain moved”, which is triggered when an add-on domain is moved to another existing or new subscription.

  • Plesk administrators can now change subjects of the email notification messages (the same way they did so for the messages’ texts).

  • Email notifications about automatic installation of system package updates can now be sent to a custom email address.

  • There are now no release tiers in Plesk Obsidian and later.

  • A Plesk mail server and webmail are now available via HTTPS by default: they are secured with the default SSL/TLS certificate that secures Plesk itself.

  • Revamped the look and feel of the main menu:

  • Introduced new icons.

  • Changed how the menu looks on various screen sizes

  • Changed hide and show effects and conditions on various screen sizes.

2 July 2019

  • Plesk administrators can now install the Advanced Monitoring and Grafana extensions on Plesk Obsidian.

Advanced Monitoring is a revamped version of the Server Health Monitor component, which inherits all the component’s features: detailed reports on the server health, on system resources’ usage, and so on. However, Advanced Monitoring displays all server metrics as visually appealing graphs and dashboards by Grafana.

It is possible because Advanced Monitoring works in tandem with Grafana. When you install Advanced Monitoring, Grafana is also automatically installed. If you are an experienced Grafana user, server metrics collected by Advanced Monitoring is not your single source of data. You can also integrate Grafana with other data sources of your choice.

For more information, read the descriptions of the Advanced Monitoring and Grafana extensions in the Extensions Catalog.

SSL It! 1.0.0

28 May 2019

  • Introduced a number of options, which are now available on Websites & Domains > your domain > SSL/TLS Certificates. It is now possible to:

  • Enhance the security of your website’s visitors by setting up a permanent, SEO-safe 301 redirect from the insecure HTTP to the secure HTTPS version of the website. To do so, turn on “Redirect from http to https”.

  • (Plesk Obsidian) Enhance the security of webmail connections by setting up a permanent, SEO-safe 301 redirect from the insecure HTTP to the secure HTTPS webmail connections. To do so, turn on “Redirect from http to https”. The webmail protection will be then applied by default. On Plesk Obsidian for Windows, the redirect to HTTPS for webmail connections is enabled by default and no corresponding checkbox is shown in the interface.

  • (Plesk Onyx for Linux, Plesk Obsidian) Protect your website’s visitors by prohibiting web browsers from accessing the website via insecure HTTP connections. To do so, make sure that your website runs on HTTPS and is secured with an SSL/TLS certificate valid during the selected time period, and then turn on HSTS.

  • Ensure that each domain, subdomain, domain alias, and webmail belonging to the subscription is secured with a free valid certificate from Let’s Encrypt. To achieve this, SSL It! can reissue an existing Let’s Encrypt certificate or replace an invalid certificate (expired of self-signed) with a valid one from Let’s Encrypt. To get peace of mind by receiving this all-round protection, turn on the “Keep websites secured” option.

  • Get evaluation of your SSL configuration from SSL Labs, one of the most popular testing services. Go to the “Run SSL Labs Test” link to check how good the SSL protection of your website is, receive recommendations what can be improved, and follow them to get the highest possible score, A+. By improving your website rank in SSL Labs Test, you improve your website rank in Google.

  • Easily upgrade your certificate if it is about to expire or a more advanced certificate is available (OV or EV) by clicking the “Upgrade certificate” button.

  • (Plesk for Linux) OCSP Stapling can now be turned on and off for websites served by nginx with Apache or solely nginx.

Note: OCSP Stapling may not work for certificates from certain vendors (for example, free certificates from DigiCert) if the complete trust chain is not in place. To check if your certificate supports OCSP stapling, run the SSL Labs test of your SSL configuration by going to Websites & Domains > your domain > SSL/TLS Certificates and clicking “Run SSL Labs Test” link.

  • (Plesk for Linux) It is now possible to enhance the security of connections encrypted with SSL/TLS certificates (website, mail, Plesk, and so on) by choosing the configuration of TLS protocols and ciphers (generated by Mozilla), which will be used by Plesk. Not to lag behind, synchronize with the Mozilla service once every few months by clicking “Sync Now”.
  • The domain screen in Websites & Domains now informs about the security status of a domain by showing a text message next to the SSL It! icon. The message can be “Domain not secured”, “Webmail not secured”, and others. Try to get the “Safe and sound!” message, which means all domain’s components are secured and TLS-related options are configured.
  • It is now possible to customize the list of SSL/TLS certificates available for order in SSL It! via the panel.ini file. To know which panel.ini settings to edit, install the Panel.ini Editor extension and see the description column of settings under the ext-sslit section.
  • Added descriptions of new SSL It! settings to Panel.ini Editor. Plesk administrators can use these settings to customize the appearance and configuration of SSL It!. (EXTSSLIT-295)
  • SSL It! can now automatically renew free certificates from Symantec. (EXTSSLIT-71)
  • If a certificate secures a domain plus a subdomain that is an alias for the domain (alias.example.com), the certificate is now correctly automatically renewed without excluding the alias SAN. (EXTSSLIT-513)
  • If the Plesk database contains a corrupted certificate, SSL It! no longer fails with the 500 Internal Server Error. (EXTSSLIT-445)
  • The webmail client of an add-on domain is no longer changed to the client of the main domain (or even disabled if webmail was disabled for the main domain) when any of the following actions are done to the SSL/TLS certificate of the main domain: issuing, manual or automatic renewal, enabling “Keep websites secured”, or unassigning. (EXTSSLIT-173)

  • If a full server backup contains a customer, whose name contains German characters, the customers’ backup is now created correctly and can be opened without any issues. (PPP-41532)
  • When multiple long tasks are launched at the same time, they are now queued and processed correctly: each task is run and just once. (PPP-34433)
  • Removed the confusing “WARNING: For PHP 7 the module name in the line below need to be modified!” line from the /etc/apache2/plesk.conf.d/roundcube.htaccess.inc file. (PPP-41131)
