  • 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.

Question iTunes Podcast Feeds and HTTP HEAD requests

Gene Steinberg

Regular Pleskian
I'm running a Plesk Linux server with latest Obsidian release.

I've had to do a workaround for the RSS feed for our podcasts due to Apple's requirements that it support HTTP Head Requests.

I've turned off all 301 HTTPS redirects that I can see while still supporting SSL on my sites, but I'm still getting error messages when I try to verify the feeds.

upport for HTTP HEAD requests
The server for your episodes must support “HTTP HEAD requests”, which is a fancy way of saying that iTunes must be able to get information about your files without downloading them whole.

  • Unexpected HTTP code: 301
So what do I change/fix on my server?

Peace,
Gene
