Upgrading from Plesk to cPanel problem

[me2]

Hi,

I have Plesk server and I just finsh from installing cPanel on my server:

# cd /home
# wget http://layer1.cpanel.net/lastest
# sh lastest

after that all the sites on the server not work, I can not add any new sites, all things are not work

can any body tell me what is the problem?

you cant upgrade a plesk server to cpanel... only ensime to cpanel works...

You would have to package the accounts first, install cpanel and then restore them...

I am new,

can you tell me how can i do that step by step PLZ?

This requires you to have 2 servers.

Note on that: You might be able to do it with one machine! You'd have to run the plesk account packager and package all the accounts then remove all plesks crap, install cpanel, and then do a restore... Keep in mind this is a idea. I dont see why it wouldnt work, but i've never try'd this before.


Theirs no guarantee this switch ether way will be 100%. I've used hte plesk account transfer utility before and it has not backed up things like databases and email box's some times.


How many accounts are on this machine? If you want to try some things let me know, give me a IM or email. Shaun2222 or shaun@ndchost.com i'd like to see if this works.

this is new server , thats mean i don't nead another server ..

my Q. now .. how can i remove pleak totaly from the sever?

[me2]

I removed Plesk by using:

rpm -e psa

and the problem still not solved

the new sites not work

can you help?

[shaun]

plesk installs alot of rpms... My recommendation, reinstall the server with redhat 7.3 (server install) and then install cpanel. If you cant do that then you need to remove all the plesk rpms and reinstall cpanel.

I cant give too much help since i cannot see whats happening inside the box.
