3.Create a file with affected domains:

# MYSQL_PWD=`cat /etc/psa/.psa.shadow` mysql -uadmin psa -Ne"select name from domains where id in (select objectId from Configurations where status<>'ok')" > /tmp/plesksupport/domainlist.txt

4.Reconfigure the affected domains:

# cat /tmp/plesksupport/domainlist.txt | while read domain; do plesk repair web -y $domain; echo "$domain - success"; done

# plesk repair web -server

5.Remove broken configuration entries from the Plesk database:

# plesk db "delete from Configurations where status <> 'ok'\G"
