  • The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.
  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

    Issue FTPS Backups failing after update to 18.0.37

    @Vince In essence, the only requirements for a "backup server" are - cheap storage : in terms of price per Gb per month - sufficient storage space : the limit on storage should not cause backups to fail - firewall : close all ports and only allow traffic on FTP ports for specific IPs...

    Issue FTPS Backups failing after update to 18.0.37

    @mow in response to your statement I can only say : it is not standard practice...... it only is the case with hosting providers that are renting out disk space as a service, often by using very (very) old servers (with very old hardware and OS) that are configured to function as some kind...

    Question Help with Nginx configuration

    @zigojacko (and @mow) The quoted reply from @mow is fully correct. In addition, @mow gives an alternative explanation of why one should not want to alter Nginx config : there are many plugins simply doing a lot of things to Apache web config and PHP config, implying that Nginx config has to...

    Issue FTPS Backups failing after update to 18.0.37

    @Vince, To some extent, this is not really a problem related to Plesk or a problem on the Plesk side. In essence, there is one explanation for the difficulties that you are encountering. The source FTP server has mod_tls enabled by default and mod_tls requires SSL session persistence for...

    Issue Rootkit Hunter log shows Invalid SCRIPTWHITELIST configuration option

    @TRILOS new media You should not alter file permissions, there is no need to do so. In essence, the error notification will be absent by applying the following steps : 1 - go to directory /opt/psa/etc/modules/watchdog 2 - create the file rkhunter.conf.local by running the command : vi...

    Issue Not happy with Plesk Email Security

    I fully agree.... but I also have to be honest by saying that rspamd only works optimal with a (central) spam cluster for (spam) training purposes.

    A special topic for chatter about Plesk in the Clouds.

    @carini That is already possible - one can use a single (remote) database, irregardless of the question where the database is hosted. Nevertheless, it is not recommend, for three reasons : 1 - most important reason : security ....... Plesk database connections are not secure, so even in a...

    A special topic for chatter about Plesk in the Clouds.

    @stevewest15 To be honest, I am not using AWS and I have even stopped testing AWS to host Plesk in the cloud - that is quite uncommon for me. The truth is that AWS is expensive, rather annoying in terms of VMs and rather prohibitive in terms of costs. I have tested an advanced setup on...

    WP Toolkit - General Discussion

    @alisd In essence, the (often minor) problems that might occur with the WPT (WordPress Toolkit) can be safely ignored when making your decision(s). The first reason for that statement is that most (minor) issues are often quickly resolved. The second reason for that statement is that some...

    Firewall Plesk, CSF recommendation which best

    @danami, In essence, you literally managed to restart a very, very, very old discussion. Nevertheless, it is good to be clear about things that matter to any sysadmin, especially when those things are related to server security. First, let's state some facts : - LFD is packaged with CSF...

    Issue Rootkit Hunter log shows Invalid SCRIPTWHITELIST configuration option

    @PrimeSites In essence, this is a (very) old rkhunter bug that apparently has returned in version 1.4.4 somehow. It is safe to ignore the "invalid configuration" notification and to get rkhunter running by following the steps : 1 - check for existence of the lwp-request file, run command ...

    Issue Not happy with Plesk Email Security

    @Viktor Vogel It might be even more constructive to have a look together at something like a spam cluster - I can create some Azure VMs for us, so we can at least play a bit with rspamd (and I now regret the fact that I destroyed the old rspamd clusters that I had for development purposes)...

    Issue Not happy with Plesk Email Security

    @Viktor Vogel It is a bit strange that you assume that I do not have the data to back up my statements and/or to confirm the problems that other persons encounter. I have initiated 5 Azure VMs with your extension activated (free version) and 1 - I did some benchmark testing with...

    Issue Redirect from www. to non-www and http to https with Plesk Obsidian Apache / Nginx Cloudflare

    @sall10 I will send you a PM - keep an eye on your mailbox. One of the reasons why I suggested to create the "dev" site becomes clear from your pagespeed results, when having WP Rocket and CloudFlare deactivated. In essence, it should not be necessary to activate all kinds of tools and/or...

    Issue Security -> TLS versions and ciphers by Mozilla

    @mr-wolf I fully agree that specific settings of a specific extension should not have any impact on general (server-wide) cipher configuration. Moreover, the whole combination of cipher settings, tools to manage them and extensions is a bit messy. In fact, the following applies : - the...

    Issue Redirect from www. to non-www and http to https with Plesk Obsidian Apache / Nginx Cloudflare

    @sall10 You should now disable WP Rocket and CloudFlare ........ and just enable Nginx caching via the WordPress Toolkit - then run the tests again. Also, when having Nginx caching enabled, just check whether your HTTP requests are not bypassing (Nginx) cache. What is the URL of your (dev)...

    Issue Not happy with Plesk Email Security

    @ssmmdd, I asked question number 1 for a specific reason - it is very likely that in any comparison some bias will occur : for instance, it cannot be ruled out that coincidence is causing a spike in spam traffic exactly during the period that the extension is installed. Sure, this seems not...

    Issue Redirect from www. to non-www and http to https with Plesk Obsidian Apache / Nginx Cloudflare

    @sall10 I have tried to read the whole config and story - but it is a bit much. The irony is that your entire issue is probably solved by enabling the "Permanent SEO-safe 301 redirect from HTTP to HTTPS" in Plesk. Nevertheless, there is a lot going on in your web configuration ........ and...

    Issue Not happy with Plesk Email Security

    @ssmmdd I have two seemingly irrelevant questions, being 1 - you state "more spam" and that is an implicit comparison........ with what? yesterday? previous month? when the extension was not installed? 2 - why not uninstalling the extension, if it indeed allows more spam than when the...

    Issue Plesk Email Security Pro, money back please!!!

    So, stop complaining about a Plesk extension - just acknowledge that your professional competence is not in the area of combatting spam. Also, this is not a place for a pissing contest - you can have the last word, if you want to have the last word. Again, I have to emphasize that it is not...
