• 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.

Resolved Migrating from cPanel

Hi,

I am trying to migrate from a cPanel server, with a root user and i get this error.
Failed to perform action: Fetch shallow data from source cPanel
Cause: SSH session not active
That is a critical error, migration was stopped.

I turned off the firewall on the cpanel server, but still it is not connceting.
 
Can you login through SSH to your old server (by using PuTTY or going direct from Linux ssh) using the very same hostname, loginname and password that you entered into Plesk Migrator?
