Question
How to update web server settings via CLI for all domains on a Plesk for Linux server?
Answer
-
Connect to the server using SSH.
-
Execute one of the commands depending on which setting should be changed:
-
To enable serving PHP by nginx:
# plesk bin site -l | while read i; do plesk bin subscription --update-web-server-settings $i -nginx-serve-php true; done
-
To disable the option Domains > example.com > Apache & nginx Settings > Smart static files processing on all domains:
# plesk bin site -l | while read i; do plesk bin domain --update-web-server-settings $i -nginx-transparent-mode true; done
-
To enable the options Domains > example.com > Apache & nginx Settings > Serve static files directly by nginx on all domains:
# plesk bin site -l | while read i; do plesk bin domain --update-web-server-settings $i -nginx-serve-static true; done
Other settings can be updated by substituting the setting name (after
--update-web-server-settings $i) in the commands above.Available settings
