Question

  • How to install or update to a specific or legacy Plesk Obsidian version?
  • Is it possible to select the exact Plesk Obsidian version that you would like to update to?

Answer

Note: In case Plesk is already installed on a server, only the current Plesk version and Plesk versions to which direct upgrade can be performed will be displayed.

Installing or updating to a specific or legacy Plesk release on a Linux server

  1. Connect to the Plesk server via SSH

    Note: If Plesk is already installed on the server, you can skip steps 2, 3  and 4 and just run the following command instead:

    # plesk installer --all-versions

  2. Download Plesk Installer:

    # wget https://autoinstall.plesk.com/plesk-installer

  3. Add execution permissions to Plesk Installer:

    # chmod +x plesk-installer

  4. Start Plesk installer with the --all-versions key:

    # ./plesk-installer --all-versions

  5. Proceed to the product list and select a desired Plesk release using the numbers.

  6. Start the installation.

    Note: Some legacy Plesk releases cannot be installed on newer operating systems. To see the list of supported and unsupported OSes, visit Plesk Lifecycle Policy.

Installing or updating to a specific or legacy Plesk release on a Windows server

  1. Connect to the Plesk server via RDP

    Note: If Plesk is already installed on the server, you can skip steps 2, 3 and 4 and run the following command instead:

    C:\> plesk installer --console --all-versions

  2. Download Plesk Installer to your Windows server.

  3. Start a command prompt as an Administrator and switch to the directory with downloaded Plesk Installer (By default, C:\Users\Administrator\Downloads):

    C:\> cd C:\Users\Administrator\Downloads

  4. Start Plesk installer with the --all-versions key:

    C:\> plesk-installer.exe --console --all-versions

  5. Proceed to the product list and select a desired Plesk release using the numbers.

  6. Start the installation.
