Logging in to Plesk for the first time
After successful installation using the Plesk autoinstaller, you will be provided with a one-time login URL that contains a session token. Follow this URL to automatically log in to Plesk. Select the desired interface language, change your password and log in to Plesk with a new password.
Logging in to Plesk
To log in to Plesk, open your web browser and open the following address:
https://<host-name-or-IP>:8443
The Plesk login page will open.
Type in your username and password to log in to Plesk. By default, your
username is admin
, but this may have been changed if Plesk was
pre-installed by a third party. Alternatively, you can log in to Plesk
using the root
username (on Linux), or the administrator
username (on Windows), and the corresponding password.
Note: You can disable logging in to Plesk with the root
or
administrator
credentials by adding the lines below to the
panel.ini file.
To disable logging in to Plesk with the root credentials:
[login]
systemAdmin = false
