Whenever the utility detects an issue, it classifies it as either WARNING or ERROR, depending on the severity of the issue. To see the extended output, use the plesk repair command with the -v option.

It also reconfigures certain services, even if no issues were detected. The utility attempts to resolve any issues it detects. To run the repair utility in the diagnostic mode, use the plesk repair command with the -n option. The utility informs you about any detected issues, but does not resolve them. Such operations are marked accordingly in the descriptions of the corresponding aspects.


Note that certain operations (such as resolving issues caused by missing PHP handlers) require you to choose from a list of available options, as opposed to simply answering "yes" or "no", and for that reason can only be performed in the interactive mode. By default, the repair utility runs in the interactive mode. Whenever the utility detects an issue or is about to reconfigure a service, it informs you and prompts you for the permission to attempt to resolve the issue or reconfigure the service. The Plesk repair utility can be run in one of the three modes: To run the Plesk repair utility, log in to the server via SSH (if you are using Plesk for Linux), or RDP (if you are using Plesk for Windows), and run the plesk repair command, specifying the desired aspect and options: plesk repair ASPECT The utility can be used to check and repair individual aspects of Plesk (such as the mail service, or the Plesk database), or all the aspects at once. If you encounter an issue with one of the Plesk services (for example, if mail is not being sent or delivered, or a website fails to open, and so on), or with Plesk itself (for example, if error messages are being displayed in the Plesk interface, or if Plesk pages fail to load), you can use the Plesk repair utility to attempt to resolve it. The Plesk self-repair functionality enables you to automatically diagnose and resolve issues with Plesk and Plesk services. Go to documentation for the latest version, Plesk Obsidian.
