  • 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 421-4.7.28 error when sending mail to Google server

    Unfortunately, I can only speculate what's wrong. Spam filters are black boxes, especially Gmail. Sending 3.1 messages/hr only shouldn't get an IP rate limited. However, from what I've seen, these rate limits are done on a IP reputation basis. If your IP has a history of sending "good" email...

    Question DDos how can i limit number of time a ip can hit the server?

    You'll need to write your own jail filter to track requests by IP. I would just raise the open file limit as a mitigation - you don't want your server going down from the either way. Then consider something like Cloudflare. Rate Limiting is best done as close to the client as possible.

    Issue How to disable firewall with no CLI?

    It seems like it would be a lot easier just to use a VPN, temporarily and whitelist your IP.... If you're in rescue mode, you should have CLI access. From there, just use the firewall CLI to make the changes necessary

    Question Nginx caching on websites

    This is really one of my biggest gripes. If Plesk offers caching OOTB but not a way to clear it, it's really quite useless except for micro caching. Does Plesk expect everyone to implement purging themselves? I doubt that is properly detecting caching. Look for the x-proxy-cache header to see...

    Issue plesk send email and all email go to spam in gmail

    I can't imagine Contabo has a particularity clean IP range - https://talosintelligence.com/reputation_center/lookup?search=173.249.25.59 Spam filters are black boxes and there are a lot of factors. However, I'd look into getting a relay from somewhere that probably has a clean IP range.

    Issue how to update plesk core and plugin via proxy ?

    The data has to get into Plesk somehow. Unless you can walk into your DC, pull out the drive, transfer the data and put it back in, you aren't going to easily get plesk core files into the machine at 10kbps

    Question How to make "sites-available" under CentOS 8, Plesk Obsidian and Nginx

    SInce you're using Plesk, forget whatever is being mentioned about sites-available/enabled It should work if you paste it in the "Additional NGINX Directives." Do you have another rule taking precedent? Ie, serve static files via NGINX

    Issue Very high CPU usage

    There are some attacks that will slip through cloudflare unfortunately. There is definitely more to do, but it gets progressively more expensive. You could take a look at Sucuri, or StackPath. If that doesn't work, there are other vendors, albeit (very) expensive.

    Uh, what's stopping you from just setting the hostname to the main server's hostname, and issuing a SSL cert for that? Generating custom vhost templates, especially for something like domainVirtualHost.php which we've seen change literally every update cycles is a pretty poor idea usually...
