What are the requirements and restrictions of Plesk?

Answer by: Taylor Giddens, Aplus.Net Technical Support

This document describes what is required in order to be able to install Plesk on your server as well as what changes will be made in the process of installation to the server environment. Please familiarize yourself with this information before proceeding with installing Plesk.

IMPORTANT

You must install Plesk 6.0 on a clean server; specifically only the operating system should be installed. SWsoft will not be held liable for damages as a result of installing Plesk on a server with anything other than a fresh installation of the operating system for which the Plesk installation was intended.

System Requirements

Following are the various requirements that must be met in order to be able to install Plesk 6.0 on your server.

Supported Operating Systems

The Plesk 6.0 is available for the following platforms:

·         FreeBSD® 4.7

·         RedHat® Linux 7.2

·         RedHat® Linux 7.3

·         RedHat® Linux 9

NOTE

Theoretically, Plesk should work on all versions of Linux (e.g. Caldera OpenLinux, Debian Linux, et cetera), but SWsoft has not tested the software on all versions and cannot guarantee the product's performance. The current release runs on specified versions of RedHat Linux. Future releases of Plesk may run on other Linux versions.

System Requirements

Minimal hardware requirements for the Plesk 6.0 installation are the same as that of the operating system being installed for use with Plesk 6.0.

Server side:

Number of domains

Amount of RAM

Processor

100

256 MB

Pentium II

500

512 MB

Pentium III

1500

2000 MB

dual Pentium III

2000

4000 MB

dual Pentium 4

IMPORTANT

By default Plesk is entirely installed into the /usr/local/psa directory. It is important to partition the hard drive accordingly.

NOTE

Plesk requires that the network components including inetd/xinetd be properly installed in the system before installation of the Plesk software.

Client side:

Supported browsers

Supported mail clients

·         Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.5 and higher

·         Netscape 6.2 for MS Windows/Unix

·         Mozilla 1.0 and higher

·         Microsoft Outlook 2000

·         Microsoft Outlook Express 6+

·         Netscape Mail 6+

·         Mozilla Mail 1+

·         Eudora 5.1

Package requirements

The following packages must be installed in your system before installing Plesk 6.0.
