I'm receiving a server not found when logging in to Plesk from shell or Terminal. Specifically the error message I'm receiving is
Can't connect to the server
My first reference for this fix is to run the command
sudo service httpd restart
Running this command you will see the following in Terminal
Stopping httpd: [ OK ] Starting httpd: [ OK ]
If this doesn't fix your error... and it didn't for me, my next step is to run a reboot command. However, note this command will shut down your websites and emails on the respective server.
sudo reboot
By running the reboot command you should see the following in Terminal
Broadcast message from root@your-host.com
(/dev/pts/1) at 11:05 ...
The system is going down for reboot NOW!
-bash-4.1# Connection to 123.45.678.901 {your server's ip address} closed by remote host.Give it a minute or two and you should be back up and online.
