Cause

The plesk-service-node-utilities package was installed without REINSTALLMODE=vmscd command line property.

Resolution

  1. Connect to the server via RDP.

  2. Get the installation parameters from .inf file (for example, C:\ParallelsInstaller\parallels\PANEL-WIN_12.5.30\panel-12.5.30-ms_w2k12-x86_64.inf3):

    CONFIG_TEXT: <actions sequence="install" displayname="Installing Plesk Utilities...">
    <install-msi-package command-line="REINSTALL=ALL REINSTALLMODE=vmscd ADDLOCAL=ALL ALLUSERS=1 ARPSYSTEMCOMPONENT=1 REBOOT=R AUTOINSTALLER=1" />

  3. Kill all running cmd.exe and conhost.exe processes.

  4. Kill plesksrv.exe process.

  5. Make sure that Plesk Management Service is not running.

  6. Try to remove the service manually, using CLI:

    C:\> sc delete plesksrv

  7. If the output says that it is non-existent service, continue the upgrade/update. Otherwise, install plesk-service-node-utilities package manually using arguments from step 1:

    C:\> msiexec /i C:\ParallelsInstaller\parallels\PANEL-WIN_12.5.30\dist-msi-Microsoft-2003-i386\plesk-service-node-utilities.msi /l*v C:\plesk-service-node-utilities-uninstall.log REINSTALL=ALL REINSTALLMODE=vmscd ADDLOCAL=ALL ALLUSERS=1 ARPSYSTEMCOMPONENT=1 REBOOT=R AUTOINSTALLER=1\

    Note: In case the package mentioned in the command above is missing from the folder, download it from the server. The package from the example is available here.

  8. Reinstall Plesk updates:

    C:\> plesk installer --select-release-current --reinstall-patch --upgrade-installed-components

Additional Information

Plesk upgrade fails: The installation of the package 'plesk-service-node-ilities' failed
