Plesk sets permissions for all server partitions so as to prevent users
from interfering with each other or accessing unknown third-party
software. For this reason, Plesk components or third-party applications
used with Plesk can have insufficient permissions for proper operation.
The Check component and folder permissions option of the
Reconfigurator utility can be used to check and correct permissions for
files and folders after installing third-party applications on the
Plesk-managed server. With this option, you do not have to scan the
whole disk, but you can check and correct permissions just for one or
several applications, or for a selected partition or directory.
To check and correct permissions for third-party applications, follow
these steps:
-
Log in to the Plesk-managed server as a user with administrator
rights by using Remote Desktop. -
In the Windows Start menu, select All Programs > Plesk >
Plesk Reconfigurator. The Reconfigurator application window
opens. -
Select the Check component and folder permissions option.
-
Select one or several Plesk components from the list or select the
partition where the third-party application is installed in the
Path to check field. -
Click Check.
View the progress at the bottom of the form. As soon as the check is
complete and the permissions are fixed, you are taken back to the
main window of Reconfigurator.
