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.
