• 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.

Error: There is no /etc/localtime file in system

Anvano

New Pleskian
Version: Parallels Plesk Panel v11.0.9_build110120608.16 os_Debian 6.0

During latest update I have received error:
There is no /etc/localtime file in system

I have checked out this file and found than this is broken symlink pointing to non-existent file
/usr/share/zoneinfo/UTS

But there is NO timezone with name "UTS". The right name is "UTC"!

I have fixed symlink, but I was wondering what happened.

I have remembered that a day before update I have changed a server time zone through the Plesk Panel (Server Management -> Tools & Setting -> General Settings -> System Time). I checked this page again and found than in listbox with timezones the "UTC" zone named incorrectly as "UTS"!

I have choosed this line and save changes - and (bingo!) the panel have created new WRONG symlink to /usr/share/zoneinfo/UTS !

It seems to be an error in Plesk Panel timezone management, which should be fixed asap.

Thanks for you attention.

Looks like it is caused by unsuccessful upgrade. Try to fix it with

rm -f /etc/localtime
ln -s /usr/share/zoneinfo/GMT /etc/localtime

and then run bootstrapper repair.
