  • 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.

Plesk 9.5.3 issue on windows 2008 server

When we are trying to create any domain or when we are trying to reconfigure any domain we get the following error:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Parallels\Plesk\admin\bin>websrvmng.exe --reconfigure-vhost --vhost-name=test.com
External component has thrown an exception.
In IIS7NativeProvider module
Exception type: System.Runtime.InteropServices.SEHException

at ServerManagerFactory.getHttpRedirectSection(String location)
at IIS7ServerManager.getSitesInfo(IIS7ServerManager* , list<WebSiteInfo\,std::allocator<WebSiteInfo> >* sitesInfo)

while adding the error is as follow:

Failed domain creation: Unable to update domain data: Execute websrvmng --add-domain "--domain-name=mohammadzikrullahsiddiqui.com" failed: External component has thrown an exception.

This is happening after plesk 9.5.3 upgrade.
 
I have fixed the issue to my own. Do you have IIS6 or IIS 7. IF IIS 7 is there then you will see there will be site called SITE_<site_ID> just delete those and you will be able to fix this.
 
same error here with 9.5.3.

(Dristi Technologies: i did not understand your solution, could you explain what you did exactly please? i mean where and what did you delete?)
 
Isuue fixed

I received the following error initially while trying to reconfigure a domain.

-------------------
C:\>"%plesk_bin%\websrvmng.exe" --reconfigure-vhost --vhost-name=test123.com
External component has thrown an exception.
In IIS7NativeProvider module
Exception type: System.Runtime.InteropServices.SEHException
at _CxxThrowException(Void* , _s__ThrowInfo* )
at ServerManagerFactory.getHttpRedirectSection(String location)
at IIS7ServerManager.getSitesInfo(IIS7ServerManager* , list<WebSiteInfo\,std:
:allocator<WebSiteInfo> >* sitesInfo)
-------------------

Open IIS, expand sites.

In my case, I found an entry "SITE_*****" under sites which was stopped. I was not able to delete it directly from IIS. I used the following command to remove the entry from IIS.

-------------------
C:\> cd %systemroot%\System32\inetsrv
C:\Windows\System32\inetsrv>APPCMD delete site SITE_*****
SITE object "SITE_*****" deleted
-------------------

Then, I tried to reconfigure/add/remove the domain and I was able to do it successfully.

-------------------
C:\>"%plesk_bin%\websrvmng.exe" --reconfigure-vhost --vhost-name=test123.com
C:\>
-------------------

Hope this helps :)

I got that error too, but either trying to create a new domain or reconfiguring, it did not matter.

Failed domain creation: Unable to update domain data: Execute websrvmng --add-domain "--domain-name=test123.com" failed: External component has thrown an exception.

So I wonder, is there anythign else I should try?
 
Removing SITE_* entries corrected this error for me too. Are these entries created by Plesk for some reason? Any idea?
