  1. Plesk CLI tool to retrieve the Plesk Key License Number

    Improve the Plesk CLI "keytool" to retrieve the currently in use / active Plesk License.

    The returnable values should be flag dependent, so for example:
    PLSK.xxxxxxxx
    PLSK.xxxxxxxx.yyyy
    DemoLicense (I think its down as expiring in 2035)
    No
    License_Installed

    This would help audit license usage on multiple servers, and make it scriptable.

  2. It would be nice if we could have On/Off button for each scheduled task Email notification

    It would be nice if we could have On/Off button for each scheduled task Email notification.
    For each scheduled task it's useful to have a toggle button for Email notification On/Off.

  4. to include an anonymize option for the apache/nginx logs!

    In Europe - especially in Germany there are several laws to enforce privacy for the visitors of a website - I am talking about data protection legislation.
    Up to now there is no option in Plesk for anonymizing access- and errorlogs. All solutions given on the internet are intermediate stopgap solutions that do not work well...because Plesk will overwrite the config- or template-files which have to be modified to make the anonymization work....
    Please integrate an option for logfile anonymization!!!

    Kind regards

    Hi, per our understanding Proxmox does KVM machines and containers. Were you using KVM or containers? KVM machines shall be fully supported by Plesk

    UPD: VM detection is already improved in the upcoming Plesk 12.1 release. We encourage you to check the implementation in one of upcoming Plesk previews and let us know what you think.

  7. Options to repair Plesk from within the control panel

    Various options to repair parts of Plesk from within the control panel.

    This is prompted by experiencing issues with SSL certificates not showing, including the default, which could be replaced by repair and notifications reporting a missing row, which could also be replaced by repair. The theme here is to repair Plesk by replacement and to do it in such a way that it doesn't affect domains and their data.

    Unfortunately, it is not immediately clear what exactly your request implies, so we would really appreciate if you could share any details about your request. Thanks in advance!

    Upd: In Plesk 12.5 we have implemented plesk repair CLI tool that addresses a lot of typical issues, so we’re closing this request as completed. If you have specific scenario that you’d like us to address, please create a separate feature request. Thank you.

  8. Clear UI for extensions management

    Add button (link) for "Add/remove components" on "Extensions Management" page of Plesk panel.
    Now it is required to quit from "Extensions management" page and travel through "Tools & Settings" -> "Plesk" -> "Updates and upgrades" -> "Install and Update Parallels Products" and only after that get new extensions with "Add/remove components".

  11. Visually masking internal IP to external IP for Plesk behind NAT

    Plesk does not have a feature to visually mask in the panel the internal IP address being used with external one used in NAT. We have a scenario where the customer has specifically asked for the same during Plesk trial although not quite sure how exactly this will work (where IPs should be masked, how will be IP for masking will be selected, etc.)

    The main issue is that since Plesk Panel resides on a private IP, all the server information located in the panel, contains the private IP and not the public one. Is there a way to "map"…

  12. Fix the "Permission denied" problem in API RPC for customers

    When using API RPC in an extension it returns "Permission denied" response for customers on any function in version 12.0.18 update #5. There is similar problem in version 11.5.30 update #47 except that the error is thrown in try..catch statement calling "pm_ApiRpc::getService()" method.

  14. Change MySQL with MariaDB or possibility to chose

    It seems that more and more start to change MySQL with MariaDB

    "Specifically, Google is moving to its own customized version of MariaDB 10.0. This version of MariaDB is equivalent to MySQL 5.6. Google's version of MariaDB, according to Cole, is "Not really true 'forks' [but are] branches for internal use." He added that Google had been making its own tweaks to the MySQL DBMS family for years."

  15. distupgrade for Debian and Ubuntu (i.e. Debian Squeeze to Debian Wheezy)

    This used to work with previous Debian versions (e.g. Etch -> Lenny, Lenny -> Squeeze) but it doesn´t seem to be possible with Squeeze -> Wheezy.

    The proposed way of "updating" is to make a backup and restore it on a new server. As we have 50+ servers this simply isn´t feasible: We cannnot get a new server and transfer multiple customer domains (some using external DNS) for each of those servers. This would cause long downtimes and problems with data being transferred that is changed on the old server (from website users).

    It has been possible before so it…

  19. eventually fix the mailman bug which is there since plesk 8

    After every update to plesk I have to manually fix the mailman entry in /etc/postfix/master.cf
    It should read: mailman unix - n n - - pipe flags=Ru

    plesk updates change the flags=R which means that mailing lists are broken if they contain upper case characters.

    As far as I know problems in mixed cases in Plesk mail services have been fixed. Have you checked this issue in Plesk 12.5 Preview (http://download1.parallels.com/Plesk/PP12/parallels-plesk-12.1-for-linux-change-log.html) ? If it is reproduced – please write step-by-step instruction how we can check it. Thanks.

  20. Application "Joomla 3.2.2" - Language and sample data BUG

    I've installed Joomla 3.2.2 as Application in Plesk Panel 11.5.
    I selected that I don't want to install sample data and that Joomla should be in German.

    But there are sample data.
    And German is selected as default language, but my administrator page is already in English.

    Is there a bug in Plesk-Application?
