On October 19, 2021, we have enabled 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.
If you had already registered your account at Plesk 360 (formerly known as My Plesk) please use one for login. Otherwise please re-register it using the same email address as your existing 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.

    I'm still having the issue, I get this when I check for the status

    systemctl status plesk-task-manager.service
    plesk-task-manager.service - Plesk Task Manager Service Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/plesk-task-manager.service; 
    enabled; vendor preset: enabled) 
    Drop-In: /lib/systemd/system/plesk-task-manager.service.d 
    └─respawn.conf Active: activating (auto-restart) (Result: exit-code) 
    since Wed 2021-10-20 10:10:01 HKT; 1s ago Process: 12233 ExecStart=/usr/lib/plesk-task-manager 
    --config /opt/psa/admin/conf/task-manager.yml --data /var/li Main PID: 12233 (code=exited, status=1/FAILURE)

    and shows the same error even after trying to enable & start the plesk-task-manager service

    What I have tried so far:
    - The above solution
    - Tried to repair plesk "plesk repair all -y"

    - Restart server 

    Any help would be appreciated, Thanks in advance!
