I am getting these exact symptoms. Specifically the third error on the Plesk dashboard.
I do appreciate the time taken to write these steps.
However, these steps did not solve the issue for me personally.
@Clintvee, hi, what is your Plesk version?
It is 12.0.18
@Clintvee, did you restart Plesk services?
Please show me an output of these commands:
# ls -la /var/log/plesk/panel.log
# ls -ld /var/log
-rw-r----- 1 psaadm root 0 Apr 11 13:27 /var/log/plesk/panel.log
drwx------ 5 root root 4096 Apr 11 13:56 /var/log

fooked my server by changing all users and groops in /var/

[root@ms142 var]# ls -la

used the comand sudo chown -R on the folder
so no access to plesk and the websites
@Clintvee, permissions on /var/log are incorrect. Do the following and restart Plesk services:
# chmod 0755 /var/log/
@Andy, in this case, I can suggest only comparing with a working server and changing the permissions manually. It also depends on how much permissions were changed.
The support team for our hosting company ended up resolving it in the end.
I checked the permissions of the /var/log/ file and can see they are now
drwxr-xr-x 6 root root 4096 Apr 12 03:20 log
Thanks for your support!
For Symfony:
Remove var and vendor then composer install
that's all
