Install PrivateBin on Plesk Obsidian

Here an easy-to-follow guide on how to install PrivateBin on a Plesk Obsidian server.
Some information before the guide:

• Plesk is in the Service Provider View (some steps in the GUI may differ in Power User View)
  bin.example.com is the subdomain here I will install it, replace it with your subdomain or domain where you want to install PrivateBin
• Backup over Plesk for the Server/Subscription should be done before applying any steps here
  Any action you do on your server is on your own risk and will, I am not responsible for any issues.
• SSH access

Let’s start with the preparation:

1. Go to Domains > example.com > PHP Settings:
   Make sure, that you have selected there PHP 7+, I will use PHP 7.4.8
   If you use a PHP version by Plesk then libsodium should be already pre-installed (check the PHP Info page)
2. Add /dev/urandom to your Open Base dir, in my case the field looks like this:
   {WEBSPACEROOT}{/}{:}{TMP}{/}:/dev/urandom
3. Now if not done yet install mcrypt for your PHP version (Tutorial for PHP 7.4)
4. Create a new database in Plesk for the Domain/Subdomain
5. Clone the git from PrivateBin to the folder where you want to have the application, in my case I will install it on a subdomain privatebin.help-server.net the path for me would be /var/www/vhosts/help-server.net/privatebin.help-server.net/.
   I will use for this the GIT option from Plesk:
   
   As I do not need to clone it again I will also remove it again after the initial clone:
   
6. Go to the cfg folder and rename the conf.sample.php to conf.php
7. Open the conf.php
8. Comment out the [model] and [model_options] sections and add following text block:

   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   Replace the following attributes:
   > dbname=privatebin with the correct DB name
   > usr = “privatebin” with the correct username
   > pwd = “newpassword” with the correct password:
   

9. Now you can open the site with the application and do the first save the first secret:
