Plesk Panel Redirecting to hostname:11444
Introduction
Sometimes, while accessing the Plesk control panel using the default secure URL, it may redirect to another URL with port 11444.
For example:
https://hostname:8443
may redirect to:
http://hostname:11444
Due to this redirection issue, the Plesk panel may not open properly. This issue is usually related to the Plesk SSO configuration.
Prerequisites
Before proceeding with the fix, make sure you have:
- Root access to the server
- SSH access to the server
- Plesk installed on the server
- Server hostname or IP address
Implementation Steps
Step 1: Login to the Server via SSH
Login to the server as the root user.
ssh root@server-ip
Step 2: Disable Plesk SSO
Run the following command to disable SSO:
/usr/local/psa/bin/sso -d
Step 3: Access the Plesk Panel Again
After executing the command, try accessing the Plesk panel again using the below URL:
https://hostname:8443
Replace hostname with your actual server hostname or server IP address.
Step 4: Verify the Plesk Panel Access
Check whether the Plesk login page is loading properly without redirecting to port 11444.
Conclusion
The Plesk panel redirection to hostname:11444 can be resolved by disabling SSO using the Plesk command-line utility. Once the command is executed successfully, the Plesk panel should be accessible normally through port 8443.
