  • 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.

Resolved Daily mails regarding Let's Encrypt, no certificate used

New Pleskian
For quite some months now I've been getting mails with the title "Let`s Encrypt certificates for [real name of administrator] have been issued/renewed".

The following domains of [real name of administrator] (login admin) have been secured with Let`s Encrypt certificates:

* 'topleveldomain.com'
- webmail.topleveldomain.com

The following Let`s Encrypt certificates for [real name of administrator] (login admin) have been renewed:

<none>

I am getting one of these mails daily, but at completely random times. The mentioned domain is a redirect domain belonging to a website with a different master domain. It does not have any SSL certificates set up, but the master domain has a Lets Encrypt wildcard certificate which I manually (Cloudflare...) renew every few months.
How can I find out what is causing these mails to be generated? It's mildly annoying.
Thank you :)
 
Plesk Support provided me with a solution!

This domain is part of the webspace masterdomain.com, it has an option "Keep secured" enabled. When such an option is enabled Plesk automatically tries to issue a NEW certificate for all domains which are not currently secured. Please note, that this option does not affect certificate RENEW, meaning once you issued a certificate it will be automatically renewed even this option is disabled.

To manage this option in Plesk interface you need to switch to Service Provider view: on the bottom right choose Change View> Switch to Service Provider View. After that go to Subscriptions > masterdomain.com > Customize > Additional Services >SSl It - change here to "None".

This should stop automatic daily attempts to issue a certificate for a domain topleveldomain.com and webmail.topleveldomain.com
