Symptoms

Migration from Parallels Plesk 9.5 shows following warning:

Unable to create a hosting plan: Wrong syntax for command's '-webstat' parameter. 'true' does not match the pattern '/^(none|webalizer|awstats|smarterstats|urchin)$/'.

Cause

The webstat parameter is set up incorrectly in Plesk system database. In turn, this is likely caused by previous failed Plesk upgrades.
