Check the SWsoft forums. There seem to be a couple of problems with it (Dr. Web again of course) though other people report it's working just fine. Be sure to get an upgraded license key or you'll be running in demo mode after the upgrade.

Hey thanks for the update, Chris Hickman sent me a note that qmail-scanner also has issues on 8.0. I should be able to dig into that one a little deeper on the weekend.

What kind of qmail-scanner issues? Plesk did issue an updated psa-qmail package recently and that reset the qmail-queue file so qmail-scanner was effectively disabled. I reinstalled qmail-scanner after that and everything was working again. That was still on Plesk 7.5 though.

I have now upgraded one server from 7.5.4 to 8.0.0 to check out the new version. I have only one domain on this test box though. So far it seems pretty nice.

I upgraded a box that have 110+ active domains on it.

Scott is right, there is issue for qmail and spamassisns, i have to remove it to get psa installed.

note for scott:

hope to see update for the YUM.conf?

Hm, I had qmail-scanner installed on my box when I upgraded it to Plesk 8.0.0. No problem with that.

I did need to install php-domxml and php-mbstring before the installer would complete its task.

Im setting up the psa-8 channel right now. Updates with qmail-scanner have always been problematic, Im kind of doing a no-no by wrapping qmail-queue the way I am in an rpm environment. I just need to work on the %trigger magic a little more to nail down all the little issues with an upgrade event that will kill the qmail-queue wrapper.

I ran into a snag with my 64-bit build tree, I might not be able to do those any time soon. Otherwise the i386 stuff is rsyncing now. Should be done in a day or two

I put the 8.0 channel in and this is what I got in return:

Package psa-api-common needs psa-security = 7.5, this is not available.
Package psa-api-common needs psa-pre >= 7.5, this is not available.
Package psa-api-cli needs psa-pre >= 7.5.4, this is not available.

Now I had run the 7.5 update just before and those packages don't seem to be there... so where should I acquire them?

But i am not sure if its save, as it brings up 175 MB+ things, including WHOLE PSA.

I have managed it succesfully on CentOS 4, but havent updated cuz i am not sure its save or not.

i think that i'll wait till they fix the crappy new backup utility... :/
i hope they will start doing something to create a normal backup (is a TAR so difficult to create instead of using a weird MIME all-in-one file?) :roll:
