• Our team is looking to connect with folks who use email services provided by Plesk, or a premium service.

  • 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.

It creates a file with no data (at least it is absolutly impossible, to create a backup of over 40 GB of data(httpdocs, email, databases), that...

    Where's the traffic?

    I just noticed that my problem with stats was due a date problem not traffic as is. i removed the entries on the database that were under the year 2050 (i probably set that instead of 2005 last year). im not having more issues with ttraffic reports.
