Upgrading PHP on a windows plesk server
Jul 27th
PHP comes pre-installed along with Plesk on a windows server, and by default, PHP only gets upgraded as new versions of Plesk are released. Unfortunately the release cycle of the Plesk Control Panel does not keep pace with that of PHP, so the result is that VPS / VDS Containers are often running versions of PHP that are several versions older than the current release. This can be an issue when you are trying to get PCI compliant
Follow the sets below to upgrade PHP
In order to upgrade PHP 5.x to the needed version (beyond that which is current bundled with the Plesk Control Panel), please perform the following steps…

This issue is normally caused when you have switched on “When deleting messages, move them to your Trash folder instead of marking them as deleted?” in Horde IMP preferences under “mail”-> “Options” -> “Deleting and Moving Messages”. Please seen the screen shot below:

When the “Deleting and Moving Messages” options appear double check that there is a tick next too “When deleting messages, move them to your Trash folder instead of marking them as deleted?”. If there is then you need to create a trash folder by clicking the drop down box under “Trash folder:” and selected “create new trash folder”. You will then be prompted for a folder name.

Increase maximum number of addesses that can be added to the Spamassassin White or Black list
Mar 23rd
You may get the following error message
Warning: Only 100 first unique e-mail addresses will be added.
Since Plesk Control Panel version 8.4.0 you may configure maximum number of addresses that can be added to the Spamassassin While or Black lists through the control panel.
It is variable psa.misc.spamfilter_max_addr_list_length in Plesk database, 100 addresses are used by default.
To set the new figure do the following:
- Connect to mysql and the plesk DB, you can use
mysql -uadmin -p$ (cat /etc/psa/.psa.shadow) -Dpsa
- Then use the following SQL query to set maximum number of addresses to 150
replace into misc values(‘spamfilter_max_addr_list_length’,150);
Note
Big number of addresses in Spamassassin White/Black may strongly reduce server performance.
Running a .vbs file as a Schedule task in plesk
Mar 17th
This took me a bit of time to work out but if you are trying to run a scheduled task in Plesk (Windows) that launches a .vbs file then you need to do the following:
In Path to executable file you need to enter the path to csripts.exe, for example:
c:\windows\system32\cscript.exe
Then in Arguments you need to enter the full path to the .vbs file
c:\interpub\vhost\…\…\myscript.vbs
And that is all you need to do to launch a .vbs file in Plesk task scheduler
A message has not been checked due to license limitations (linux)
Jan 28th
You may see thousands of mails in Qmail queue which are sent from DrWEB-DAEMON@domain.com to postmaster@domain.com with Subject: A message has not been checked due to license limitations.
Plesk comes with default Dr.Web license key that is limited by 15 mailboxes. Therefore, only first 15 mailboxes created in Plesk will be protected by Dr.Web. The list of these mailboxes you can see here:
less /etc/drweb/users.conf
You can also disable such notification in Dr.Web configuration file /etc/drweb/drweb_qmail.conf
vi /etc/drweb/drweb_qmail.conf
And Change
