Managing Modules

Installing Modules

In order to install a module to a Plesk server, click Add Module, then select a module package file, and click OK.

The Network Configuration and Game Server modules distributed with Plesk are located in the directory /opt/modules in Plesk distribution.

Installing license keys for modules

Some modules might require you to install a license key in order to be able to use them. You can check out the terms of usage on the module manufacturer’s web site, or look them up on this page: for each module installed there is a corresponding list entry accompanied by an icon, which shows whether license key is required. There are three types of icon that indicate the following:

- the module does not require a license key

- the module requires a license key, and the key is installed

- the module requires a license key, but the key is not installed.

If a module is provided by SWsoft, Inc. and requires a license key, you can obtain it from SWsoft, Inc. using the License Manager function in the control panel.

In other cases, you should obtain the information on installation of license keys for modules from the module provider.

Accessing module configuration

Configuration steps vary depending on each module. Once you install a module on the server using the control panel, you are taken to the module’s configuration screen.

If you installed the module from the command line, you need to configure it via Plesk.

To access the module configuration screen, in the list of modules, click the module’s name presented as link.

Removing modules

To remove a module, select a checkbox corresponding to the module you wish to remove, and click Remove Selected, or login as root to the server, where Plesk is installed, and run the command /usr/local/psa/admin/bin/modulemng --remove --module=<module_codename>.

Example: /usr/local/psa/admin/bin/modulemng --remove --module=cs-gs

You can look up a module’s codename by running the following command:

# echo "SELECT name, display_name FROM psa.Modules;" | mysql -u admin –p<admin_password> psa
