  • Plesk 8.x for Linux/Unix

RESOLUTION

Server hostname on the Plesk server should be changed through Plesk CP on the 'Server'->'Server preferences' page with 'Full hostname' field. Fill the new hostname and push OK, Plesk will update it's database and all needed configuration files such as /etc/hosts, /etc/sysconfig/network, /var/qmail/control/me, etc...

 

Also, the current hostname can be taken from the console using  the 'hostname' command, for example:

# hostname
foo.mydomain.org
