  • 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 cant see my bind install

VagaStorm

Basic Pleskian
I've just instaled plesk 7.5 for windows and BIND. Bind is even located at: C:\Program Files\SWsoft\Plesk\dns\\bin\named.exe for some strange reason Plesk cant see bind, and is therefor I can not get past the select dns server step of my first login.... What should I do? The service is runing, and it shows up in the Plesk contol panel as ISC BIND.....
 
BIND is included in the plesk 7.5 installation.
i recieved this message too when i first logged into the control panel...

All i did to fix it was reboot the server and relogin to the control panel it detected it then.
 
I also had the same problem, after restarting plesk for once.It was telling that bind and MS Dns server was not installed.All I did was a restart to solve it.
 
I still get the error with bind. I restart the server several times, but I get no change. I see that under C:\Program Files\SWsoft\Plesk\dns\ there is only one directory named "var" but there is nothing into. How can I fix this problem? The client's accoutn work well as always, but as admin I can't access the panel.
PLease help me.
 
Sorry, I've found the right directory, but anyway I can't get plesk see bind . What can I do?
 
in C:\Program files\Swsoft\Plesk\dns

there should be 3 directories...
Bin
Etc
Var

if there isnt looks like plesk hasnt installed BIND,
you need to reinstall plesk or try the reconfigurator.

:(
 
Yes, sure. I've found the 3 directories under D:\SWsoft... so I've them; but bind doesn't work after all. I don't know what to do...
 
Ok, all goes well now. I could choose bind only from Internet Explorer on the localhost, not remotely from web. Anyway, now it's working well, but I say not to update PLesk windows from 7.5.1 to 7.5.3: maybe it's better to wait until next release...
