The Plesk self-repair functionality enables you to automatically
diagnose and resolve issues with Plesk and Plesk services. If you
encounter an issue with one of the Plesk services (for example, if mail
is not being sent or delivered, or a website fails to open, and so on),
or with Plesk itself (for example, if error messages are being displayed
in the Plesk interface, or if Plesk pages fail to load), you can use the
Plesk repair utility to attempt to resolve it. The utility can be used
to check and repair individual aspects of Plesk (such as the mail
service, or the Plesk database), or all the aspects at once.
To run the Plesk repair utility, log in to the server via SSH (if you
are using Plesk for Linux), or RDP (if you are using Plesk for Windows),
and run the plesk repair
command, specifying the desired aspect and
options:
plesk repair ASPECT [OPTION]
The Plesk repair utility can be run in one of the three modes:
-
Interactive mode. Whenever the utility detects an issue or is
about to reconfigure a service, it informs you and prompts you for
the permission to attempt to resolve the issue or reconfigure the
service. By default, the repair utility runs in the interactive mode.
Note that certain operations (such as resolving issues caused by
missing PHP handlers) require you to choose from a list of available
options, as opposed to simply answering “yes” or “no”, and for that
reason can only be performed in the interactive mode. Such operations
are marked accordingly in the descriptions of the corresponding
aspects. -
Diagnostic mode. The utility informs you about any detected
issues, but does not resolve them. To run the repair utility in the
diagnostic mode, use theplesk repair
command with the-n
option. -
Repair mode. The utility attempts to resolve any issues it
detects. It also reconfigures certain services, even if no issues
were detected. To run the repair utility in the repair mode, use the
plesk repair
command with the-y
option.
One of the following aspects must be specified (click the name of the
