• 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.

hello!

Could you please attach result of
#ls -la support/storage/import
command.
It can help to understand the reason of error.

Thank you, it's the known issue and will be fixed at one of the future MUs. now we can't backup files owned by apache correctly.
As a workaround I can suggest you to change owner of this content using next scheme:
0770 apache:apache ==>> 0770 sysuser:apache
and then perform backup task again.
 
Backup is like an insurance. One reason why I moved from 10.4. to 11.5 is the encrypted backup function. I cannot change the settings and I have a few other domains that will save the files with the same user. They don`t work either of course. Do you know when this will be fixed? It's a big risk not being able to backup the data.
