Starting on October 19, 2021, we will enable single-sign-on for our Plesk Support Center to provide a seamless login/account experience. This implies that you’ll be able to use a single account across any of our web-facing properties.
To be prepared for this change and to avoid the need to register during your next ticket submission after the change, we encourage you to create an account here before October 19 using the same email address as your current Zendesk login (support account). It’s essential that you use the same email address on our support center to ensure that your tickets stay attached to the same account. You will continue to use ZenDesk authentication until we switch over to single-sign-on on October 19th.

Plesk for Windows Plesk for Linux kb: bug ABT: Group A

Applicable to:

  • Plesk for Linux
  • Plesk for Windows

Symptoms

There is no possibility to remove sessions of the Mail Importing and Website Importing utilities via Plesk GUI.

Cause

The behavior is considered as a Plesk feature request with the ID #PMT-4498, which is planned to be addressed in future Plesk updates.

Resolution

As a workaround remove the sessions directories manually using one of the solutions below:

Solution for Linux servers
  1. Log into the server via SSH.
  2. Run the command below to remove sessions directory for the required domain:
    • For Website Importing:

      # rm -rf /usr/local/psa/var/modules/site-import/sessions/site-migration-[domain-id]

    • For Mail Importing:

      # rm -rf /usr/local/psa/var/modules/site-import/sessions/mail-migration-[domain-id]

    Note: to get [domain-id] execute the command below by replacing example.com with the name of the required domain:

    # plesk db "select id as '[domain-id]' from domains where name='example.com'\G;" | grep -v row

    [domain-id]: 14

Solution for Windows servers
  1. Log into the server via RDP.
  2. Manually remove sessions folder for the required domain:
    • For Website Importing:
      %plesk_dir%\var\modules\site-import\sessions\site-migration-[domain-id]
    • For Mail Importing:
      %plesk_dir%\var\modules\site-import\sessions\mail-migration-[domain-id]

    Note: to get [domain-id] execute the command below via CMD by replacing example.com with the name of the required domain:

    C:\> plesk db "select id as '[domain-id]' from domains where name='example.com'\G;" | findstr /v row
    [domain-id]: 1

    Do we have approximate time about when this issue is gonna get fixed?

    We can't implement this feature until it's fully stable without need of any workarounds.

    Hi @b_p!

    It's up to you whether to remove the sessions after the import is completed.

    Hello AlpsHost,

    Currently, there is no ETA available.

    So does it mean that this needs to be done manually after each successful import?
