  • 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.

Resolved Plesk Update Error :facet::_S_create_c_locale name not valid

Regular Pleskian
Hi Plesk friends,
Today I made two installations in over Tools and Settings - "Plesk Updates and Upgrades".
First was Updating Plesk itself + Wordpress
Second was PHP 7.1
Both very running to the end. Think they were successful, but both with the same installation error:
:facet::_S_create_c_locale name not valid
Here the depended part from the updates-upgrade-page (console) output:
Not the parallels_installation_log (this log I also downloaded, put not yet posted)

Can I test it? Do you have a fix for it? Or better to reinstall the whole patches/updates with
Code:
# plesk installer --select-release-current --reinstall-patch --upgrade-installed-components

Usually it is caused by non en_US.UTF-8 locale on server. For Ubuntu you can fix it with

# locale-gen en_US.UTF-8

Then run

# plesk installer --select-release-current --reinstall-patch --upgrade-installed-components
