  • 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.

Issue Not sure where to post questions about PPA... Mine has an issue

Hey,
I don't know where else to go. The support has ended for this product and we have 500 domains on here with more people coming in all the time.
However I'm having problems adding accounts. When I try to "Change system user settings" un Creating a new Webspace, I get "
Unable to validate this field: The backend utility raised the error: Connection to the agent at '' failed."

I have no idea where to start troubleshooting this. When support was there it was excellent, issues like this would have been taken care of right away.

Also, was trying to migrate some domains to a new email server using the ppa-move-subscriptions script provided by parallels. However that is erroring as well. With a great error:

ppa-move-subscriptions copy-mail-content config.ini --move-list-file migrate-nodes/move-list.xml

Argh. No idea there either!
I sure hope someone can help me out here or at least point me in the right direction.

Thanks!
 
Hi,
So I figured out that creating the webspace was an issue because the webmail node was full. Weird that had such a huge effect on the creation of a web page, oh well.

However I'm still unable to migrate mail between two mail nodes. Does anyone have any ideas on where I can start troubleshooting this issue?

I don't have any error message to go by. Google isn't helping here at all. Product is out of support (well, $200 CDN per incident). It's on an EOL OS, so I can't upgrade anything. Ugh. Want to get clients off this node so I can shut it down.

Thanks.
