This command just forces the job to re-run on  a single domain:

/usr/local/psa/admin/sbin/statistics –calculate-one –domain-name=Domain_name.com

MSDNS is used as DNS server. Every time when you try to update domain hosting or DNS settings of the domain, Parallels Plesk Panel hangs. Sometimes it can fails with the following error:
Failed domain creation: Unable to update domain data: Unable to create dnsmng object: dnsmng failed: Empty error message from utility

The following message can be found in event viewer:
Faulting application DNSMng.exe, version 9.501.0.0, time stamp 0x4bc1f9fd, faulting module MsProv.dll, version 9.501.0.0, time stamp 0x4bc205bc, exception code 0xc0000005, fault offset 0x000600bb, process id 0x56c, application start time 0x01cae1ae46c559db

Utility “%plesk_bin%\dnsmng.exe” cannot be run from command line. It fails with the error:
DNSMng.exe – Application Error : The instruction at “0x00ba74ac” referenced memory at “0x00bd2108″. The memory could not be “read”

“IMAP service was down there, it could not start with error

Aug 17 08:00:05 websvr imapd: Invalid -maxperip option.
Aug 17 08:00:05 websvr imapd-ssl: Invalid -maxperip option.”

The reason of the error was that MAXPERIP option was absent in /etc/courier-imap/imapd configuration file. I have added the missed line and restarted service. it  works OK now.

The error received in plesk is:

HTTP Error 404.13 – Not Found

The request filtering module is configured to deny a request that exceeds the request content length.

All you have to do to solve this :

%windir%\system32\inetsrv\appcmd set config “PleskControlPanel/” -section:requestFiltering -requestLimits.maxAllowedContentLength:104857600

which will set a 100MB limit for file uploads in plesk file manager.

Server -> Certificates -> Add New Certificate

For Parallels Plesk Panel version 9.x:

Settings -> SSL Certificates -> Add SSL Certificate

Fill in required preferences and click button {Self-Signed}

New self-signed SSL certificate will be created in server certificate repository.

To assign this SSL certificate for securing your Parallels Plesk Panel mark enabled new SSL certificate in the list and push Secure control panel if you have Plesk 8.2 or later, or Install if you have older Plesk version.
Also, see Plesk documentation how to setup self-signed certificates.

After you created or uploaded new certificate into Plesk and wish to use it for domains you should set it for every IP you need, so domains use it when you access them via HTTPS.
It can be done on page Server -> IP Addresses -> “choose IP” by selecting needed Certificate in “SSL Certificate” drop down menu.

or

I use 1 SSL cert for plesk control-panel, pop3s, imaps and smtps.

After generating the new certificate in the administrator repository. make it your default certificate and mark it again and press setup to install it on your plesk admin server on port 8443. then put the certificate at your main ip-adresse in your ip-pool(maybee this step is not necessary).

copy /usr/local/psa/admin/conf/httpsd.pem
to
/usr/share/courier-imap/pop3d.pem, /usr/share/courier-imap/imapd.pem and /var/qmail/control/servercert.pem

please have a look that the owner(very important) and the chmod rights are the same of pop3d.pem, imapd.pem and servercert.pem. like before otherwhise qmail will for example not work/start, because it can’t read the file.

restart courier(imap,pop3) and qmail(smtp) in the plesk server service control panel.

after this plesk control-panel 8443, pop3s, imaps and smtps should work without warning messages and with only 1 ssl cert, if you use for all services the same main hostname.domain.com address like me.

(maybee you should also have a look, that the same hostname is configured in the qmail config file)

finally to test certificates :

openssl s_client -connect [host]:993

openssl s_client -connect [host]:995

openssl s_client -connect [host]:465

openssl s_client -connect [host]:8443

where for e.g. host=localhost

/usr/local/psa/bin/pre9-backup-convert -v convert -d /var/lib/psa/dumps/  /root/plesk8-backup-file

then go to plesk 9 panel and restore the backup from the client and/or precreated domain.

for example you can modify local delivery in .qmail to replace  “/usr/bin/deliverquota ./Maildir” with something like “/var/qmail/bin/preline -f /opt/libexec/dovecot/deliver -d user@domain”.

basically there are two ways to do that from plesk:

one is using event handlers: http://download1.swsoft.com/Plesk/Plesk8.6/Doc/en-US/plesk-8.6-unix-administrators-guide/22819.htm

second is using mail handlers: http://download1.parallels.com/Plesk/Plesk8.6/Doc/en-US/plesk-8.6-unix-mod-api/38611.htm

Unfortunately I did not find too many docs related to it so find out from Parallels that webmail is not running from “webmail” application pool but on plesk default application pool that can be found in plesk -> server-> IIS Application Pool . If this is not running so webmail will not work and you have to restart this application pool to start webmail.

As values in TLSRSACertificateFile and TLSRSACertificateKeyFile otion you can use as Plesk certificate, for example /usr/local/psa/admin/conf/httpsd.pem as your own one.

After that restart proftpd from xinetd : /etc/init.d/xinetd restart

1. Launch command prompt.

2. CD “%plesk_dir%Additional\Php\”.

Note: The folder can be different – e.g. in case of using PHP5.

3. Execute go-pear.bat and follow the on-screen instructions.

4. Add the path to the newly created pear.bat file into the PATH system variable after installation and reboot the machine for changes to take effect.

These actions will install the ‘pear’ command on your server including basic pear packages. You can use ‘pear’ command from the Windows command prompt to manage PEAR packages.
