Hmm...could be that you don't have sendmail installed, or it's missing the link. It's telling you very plainly that you have an unresolved requirement, and that it's /usr/sbin/sendmail.

Also, it could be you're not installing as root. But you don't give any details, like version/distro of linux, what you're doing to generate this error, if you're installing from binary/source, etc. Hard to give help when yo don't provide details.

The Plesk update started then gave error and now everything is ******

Now even my Horde email doesnt work and i have
Code:
 There was an error sending your message: Failed to open sendmail [/usr/sbin/sendmail] for execution.
Under the above error is this one:
Code:
Warning: unresolved requires 'psa-api-rpc = 9.2.3-fc7.build92091015.22' from psa-backup-manager-9.2.3-fc7.build92091015.22.i586

I use Fedora Core 7
this is one of the problems right here .
Fedora 7 is WAY,WAY past it's end of life and has not been updated since June/2008 and WILL never be updated .

if you are trying to use "yum" in fedora 7 -- you can NOT the repos are dead.

Update to the current fedora 12 , then in 4 to 5 months reinstall to fedora 13 , then 6 months after that install fedora 14 .

-- or --
install the very long life CentOS . CentOS 5.4 is the current.

Fedora Core 7 is working fine, YUM is working good, the repos are not dead (not all) !

I cant use Fedora 12 because Plesk doesnt work on it yet !

I need to repair this install if i can, rebuilding is the last option...

Info from the Fedora 6 based EL5 / SL 5 / CentOS 5 :

# yum provides */sendmail
exim-4.63-3.el5.i386 : The exim mail transfer agent
Matched from:
Filename : /usr/sbin/sendmail


# yum install exim
( provides exim-4.66-3.fc7 on Fedora 7.)



The free versions of Redhat EL 5 = SL 54, CentOS 5
have end of life ' March 31, 2014 '.

It was something in php.ini, i had disable_functions ON ...now its OFF

Quote:
disable_functions =exec,passthru,shell_exec,system,proc_open,popen,curl_exec,curl_multi_exec,parse_ini_file
I hope that will not be a security problem...

This was a Plesk recommendation: http://kb.parallels.com/en/2278

Correct me if I'm mistaken, but the error you're referencing is actually just a warning that may come up during the install process that can be ignored. If you have 'unresolved dependencies' errors, then you have a problem (means a package or packages can't be installed for some reason).

So, are you sure this is an error that's preventing you from moving forward?

You`re right, Igor from Plesk forum said the same thing, just a warning that can be ignored !
I just wanted to know what this error is about, now i know

I managed to work around all the warnings and no the problems are fixed !
