    This does not apply. I don't have any monitoring installed. This was fine a few days ago, just started without any human intervention. Why Plesk is doing backgrond thinks and fsck up servers?

    I fixed from  https://talk.plesk.com/threads/composer-dependencies-require-on-plesk.366797/ 

    Open /usr/local/psa/admin/plib/modules/catalog/vendor/composer/platform_check.php

    Edit (change the 4 with 1)
    if (!(PHP_VERSION_ID >= 70400)) {

    into:
    if (!(PHP_VERSION_ID >= 70100)) {

    Same here... We got a ton of support tickets, emails and phone calls about this issue... And I can only hope that Plesk will resolve this asap.

    The issue with /usr/local/psa/admin/plib/modules/catalog/vendor/composer/platform_check.php is separate and is not related to monitoring extension. It should be fixed by now. Please look at the following article for details:

    For us it was letsencrypt in version 3.1.13-870

    change 80002 to 70400 in
    /usr/local/psa/admin/plib/modules/letsencrypt/vendor/composer/platform_check.php

    letsencrypt works just fine after this.

    I got this error today (again). Here's my fix:

    in file

    /usr/local/psa/admin/plib/modules/sectigo/vendor/composer/platform_check.php

    change 

    if (!(PHP_VERSION_ID >= 70400)) {

    to

    if (!(PHP_VERSION_ID >= 70100)) {

    After that I could login into my Plesk panel again.

    Modifying the platform_check.php worked for us but in the following folder as directly above --> /usr/local/psa/admin/plib/modules/sectigo/vendor/composer

    We are on Obsidian 18.0.30 in case that helps anyone else.

    We did try the work around, but we don't have monitoring installed.
