Plesk Integration
Integrate Open-Xchange with Plesk
This document describes how to integrate Open-Xchange with Plesk.
Requirements
In order to integrate Open-Xchange with Plesk, the Open-Xchange APS package must be used. This requires the following versions of Plesk and the APS package:
- Open-Xchange APS package version 7.2 and above (Not yet available).
- Parallels Plesk Panel version 11.5 and above
Older versions are not supported.
Download
Download the APS package from the APS catalogue
Install and configure Open-Xchange
Before you continue, you have to find out your requirements on how to integrate your Plesk instance(s) with Open-Xchange. There are two possible scenarios:
- One Open-Xchange installation for one Plesk Installation
- You want to serve one Plesk system with one single Open-Xchange installation or you are the only one managing the Plesk servers.
- One Open-Xchange installation fo many Plesk systems
- You want to resell many Plesk systems but only use one single Open-Xchange installation.
Note: Finding the correct scenario is important as it is hard to change later!
The main problem is, that usually on Open-Xchange, you have ONE single "root" account to provision contexts/tenants in Open-Xchange. The name of this account is usually oxadminmaster, but it can be renamed to what ever you like. Now imagine there's a scenario where not you, but your customers should create contexts. This is usually the case when you are a reseller. In this case you do not want to hand out that single "root" account to all your customers.
Fortunately, Open-Xchange has a solution for that. It is called the Reseller_Bundle.
Roughly summarised, if you are a Reseller you most likely need Plesk_Integration#One_Open-Xchange_installation_fo_many_Plesk_systems
