What is the root mysql password in plesk server.

Parallels Plesk Panel renames ‘root’ account to ‘admin’ when the Panel is installed.

To get root privileges simply login with the ‘admin’ username instead. The password is the same as the admin password in Plesk. You can find it in /etc/psa/.psa.shadow.

ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user ‘root’@’localhost’ (using password: NO)

While trying to use mysql in plesk I am getting the following error :

ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user ‘root’@’localhost’ (using password: NO)

ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user ‘root’@’localhost’ (using password: YES)

Solution :

echo “use psa; truncate lockout;” | mysql -u root -p`cat /etc/psa/.psa.shadow`     —> this can be a solution, but I have not tested that with 100% success

When I try to access plesk through https://IP ADDRESS:8443

It just repeats trying to load the login page but never gets the login page..ie. it looks like a loop has formed.

Solution :

Check if firewall is installed. If so open inbound port : 11444 in apf.conf or csf.conf

NOTE :  Also make sure the ports : 8880, 8443, 11222 are made open and tested.

If the above dont work try to disable sso.

How to add alternate SMTP port in plesk

You can do this using 2 methods.

1) Login to Plesk >> Mail Server Settings >> Check “Enable message submission”.

Click OK.

Open that port 587 in csf or apf firewall.

You should now be able to send mail through your server on port 587

2) Make a copy of “smtp_psa” and rename that to “smtp_alternate”

cp -ar /etc/xinetd.d/smtp_psa /etc/xinetd.d/smtp_alternate

Insert the following on top :

=============
service = smtp_alternate   (Should be the same name as the file created)
type = UNLISTED
port = 2525
=============

So that the file should look like :

[root @ a24uall ] # cat /etc/xinetd.d/smtp_alternate
service smtp
{
service = smtp_alternate
type = UNLISTED
port = 2525
socket_type     = stream
protocol        = tcp
wait            = no
disable        = no
user            = root
instances       = UNLIMITED
env             = SMTPAUTH=1
server          = /var/qmail/bin/tcp-env
server_args     = -Rt0  /var/qmail/bin/relaylock /var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd /var/qmail/bin/smtp_auth /var/qmail/bin/true /var/qmail/bin/cmd5checkpw /var/qmail/bin/true
}

To add a custom nameserver first you need to start from the domain registrar end.

If its godaddy follow the procedures below :

Then login to Plesk >> DNS >>

Add the entries as below :

ns.a24uall.info     A    72.37.212.253 (NS IP)

ns2.a24uall.info  A    72.37.212.254 (NS IP)

NOTE : Remove any entries like *@a24uall.info

Make sure at the registrar end you register the NS

ns.a24uall.info   pointed to    72.37.212.253

ns2.a24uall.info  pointed  to  72.37.212.254
