  • 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.

Possible Bug with ampersand '&' After Migrating.

Antonelos

New Pleskian
Hi everyone,

I'm experiencing a problem after migrating some domains from Plesk 10.4.x to 11.0.9. More specific every time migration manager meets a password in
configuration or email account containing the '&' symbol, then by default erases anything follows. An example if in my wp-config.php
use define ('DB_PASSWORD', '41yRe&sl4!') then after the migration this line will be define ('DB_PASSWORD', '41yRe&'). The migration
manager does not produce an error regarding this changes.

This is almost impossible to believe :) ie the much I know is that the migration manager only moves physical files and databases AND does NOT modify any web files (unless if possibly these web files were installed through the APS) but otherwise, no way ..

About the email passwords, that could be possible if earlier in your plesk 10 version you had not enabled high security measures such as encrypting passwords ...

Never the less, if you really believe this is abug, you can report it here (with instructions of how to reproduce this situation):

Thank you both for your replies,

I'm sorry for misguided you. I will take adbi's advice and open a report.
 
I believe i make a mess for open this thread without read the rules first. So, I'm going to ask anyway, is there a bug report thread?
because i did a fast research and most bug keyword threads were opened under this section. Again, sorry for troubling you.
 
First of all, have you checked this behaviour on latest version of Plesk 11.5.30 with all installed microupdates?
 
Try to play with Password strength on pge Tools & Settings>Security Policy
 
I could do that, our custom password strength is set at "medium" on both servers, but I believe this is obviously
a bug because the password strength on some email accounts is 14digit, also on my first post this example is something
that really happened and this is the exact password.
