• Our team is looking to connect with folks who use email services provided by Plesk, or a premium service. If you'd like to be part of the discovery process and share your experiences, we invite you to complete this short screening survey.

  • 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 Backup & General Deception

Aude

New Pleskian
I am very surprised by the plesk tool, which is simple. Ok for most task.

But after an adventure with msmtp. Here I am in a new adventure with the backups.

I think that many of us are DevOps (programmer forced to do server administration) and that many use windows to program (wamp, php, ...)? So I planned a backup each night, result (for the same given content, site) :

Everything is going well. Configuration is easy. But :

  1. it is impossible to decompress easily under windows the archive and even under mac ... besides I still have not arrived.
  2. The backup process sends a notification only in case of failure ... Personally I also like to be warned and reassured when it works, do not you?
  3. Then it is impossible to have only the database in backup ... (ok there is the dump, but it is not automated). A bit embarrassing for e-commerce sites. And especially when the base is only 200MB and the site 4GB ...
I have more and more doubt about the relevance of the "simplification" choices of the Plesk team? Should we accommodate ourselves?

PS: and I'm not talking about the Health System / Monitor ...
