Migration from DirectAdmin server with end-of-life OS to latest version Plesk fails: Failed to deploy Python on source server, Nothing to do

Symptoms

• Plesk Migrator migration from DirectAdmin server with End of Life OS (like CloudLinux or Centos 6 and 7) towards a server that has a supported OS and a latest version of Plesk fails with an error that is similar to the following:

  Failed to deploy Python on source server
  Cause: Command execution failed on the source server 'directadmin' (203.0.113.2) with non-zero exit code.
  command: yum install -y -q plesk-py3
  exit code: 1
  stdout:
  stderr: Error: Nothing to do

  That is a critical error, migration was stopped

Cause

No plesk-py3 package is available for operating systems that have reached their End of Life (EOL).

Resolution

1. Download the custom Plesk Migrator build file that is attached to this article.
2. Upload it to your Plesk destination server
3. Log into the destination server via SSH
4. Install the custom Plesk Migrator build that you have placed on your destination server by navigating to the directory in which the file was placed and executing the following command:

# plesk bin extension -i panel-migrator-2.25.6-1356-custom.zip

 Retry the migration attempt afterwards.
