You might ask your hoster and plesk support.
Oh, your 5.5 is severely outdated, insecure, and not supported.
You need to update immediately, unless you have been hacked, in which case you need to do a complete reinstall.
I see. I am in the process of searching for an alternative hosting company. Hope to switch to latest Centos as soon as possible.gerald_clark wrote:Current CentOS 5 is 5.11
If your hoster will not allow you to run "yum update" to update to the current supported version, change hosters.
We cannot support systems runningg Plesk, as Plesk replaces core programs with its own versions.
Normal CentOS support procedures will only break your Plesk system more than it is already.
