    Unable to remove a domain by marking the checkbox and pressing the Remove button via Plesk > Domains:

    due to the following error:

    Error: Permission denied to remove domain ID

    Cause

    Database inconsistency or workaround for bug #PPPM-7124.

    Resolution

    Remove the domain using one of the following ways:

    via Graphical User Interface (GUI):

    1. Log in to Plesk.

    2. Go to Domains > example.com.

    3. Click the Remove Website button:

      Note: If no such button is presented then this domain is the main domain of the corresponding subscription, and it can be removed only with the subscription together.

      Warning: subscription removing will delete all domains assigned to this subscription. If other domains should remain untouched, create a temporary subscription example1.com, move the domains to it, and rename it to example.com after removing the domain in question.

    4. Go to Subscriptions > example.com > Websites & Domains and press the Remove Subscription button:

    via Command Line Interface (CLI)

    1. Connect to the server via SSH.

    2. Execute the following command to remove the domain example.com:

      Note: change example.com the command below to the required domain name.

      # plesk bin domain --remove example.com
