Where are the plesk key files?

Where can we find the plesk key file (file containing the key)?

Get the Key number/files from shell:

1. Parallels Panel 7.x – 8.x:
# grep ‘Key number’ /etc/psa/psa.key

2. Parallels Panel 9.x:
grep ‘key-number’ /etc/sw/keys/keys/key*

Plesk for Windows:

1. In Plesk control panel go to Server, License Management and see the license number there.
2. Use the command in the command prompt:
“%plesk_bin%\keymng.exe” –get-key-number

key file on plesk windows is in:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Parallels\Plesk\admin\repository\keys\keyxxxxxx

when you change it , you have to delete C:\Program Files (x86)\Parallels\Plesk\admin\repository\registry.xml and it will be recreated after first accessing plesk interface.

Automatically suspending domains after update to Plesk9

admin — Fri, 08 Apr 2011 16:52:22 +0000

it turns out Plesk 9 has something called the “Overuse Policy” which is configured in “Resource Usage” for each client. Careful with this as you might upgrade from Plesk 8.x and it defaults to “Overuse is not allowed”, which causes the auto-suspend to be activated if any domains exceed their limits.

To solve this you can set this in psa database:

update cl_param set val = ‘false’ where param = ‘OveruseBlock’;
update dom_param set val = ‘false’ where param = ‘OveruseBlock’;

so no client or domain will be suspended . The drawback is that clients will be able to overuse any limits like no of domains , databases ,email accounts….

plesk9 icons missing on VZPP

VZCP packages on the service VE (VE #1) should be upgraded to the latest available one, icons are provided since vzcp-3.0.0-16.10. It can be upgraded via vzup2date or vzsveupgrade.

It is also possible to copy icon files manually from any Plesk 9 VE (ex. 118) skins directories:

/vz/root/118/usr/local/psa/admin/htdocs/skins/*/images/nav_home.gif

To corresponding service VE skins directories:

/vz/root/1/var/vzcp/static/vz/skins/*/icons/nav_home.gif

and so on for all missing icons.
