• 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 Not able to create "admin." subdomain

Riddle

New Pleskian
Hi,

I have created a "domain.com" domainname. When I try to add a "admin.domain.com" subdomain above it, it says "A domain with such a name already exists." I can add other subdomains without issue, also "admin2.domain.com"

I also cannot add "admin.domain.com" as a normal domain, says the same.

Is there a list of prohibited subdomains I can use?
 
Make sure that you have not DNS record with such a name:

Code:
# plesk db
> select dns_zone_id,host from dns_recs where host like "%admin.domain.com%";

If dns_zone_id will be found, you can find related domain with:

> select id,name from dns_zone where id=XX;
 
Oh, I see... I created a customer with some domains with the trial license. After that, I ordered a Web Admin license and the customer and registered domains were gone. Now I had to upgrade the license.

Maybe a nice suggestion to have this simplified somehow :)
Thank you
