  • 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 Plesk database crashed - no backups of project databases

EDWERB

New Pleskian
Hey there,

yesterday we had a datacrash of the plesk database. Now Plesk is running. but all the databases of our projects are emty. Our serviceparter didn‘t setup the backup system.

Do anybody have an idea to restore the databases? At the moment the hole database files are lost.

Thanks a lot

Martin
 
Do you have another idea to restore the databases?
If you haven't created backups of client sites and their databases, I'm afraid there is no way to restore them. There is nothing from which it could be made.
 
How did a crash of the database result in a total loss of the db tables? If the database crashes, the files may be corrupted but in many cases can be rolled back/recovered.

Was it a drive/hardware issue? If so, consider sending the drive to a forensics lab if the data is really of importance. But then again, if it was, you'd have backups right?
