  • 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.

Question Removed default MariaDB Server

P

PixelPusher

New Pleskian
Hi, this is my first few days with Plesk and love it. I have some quick questions about some things I have done.

Plesk Obsidian Web Host Edition
Version 18.0.41 Update #1
Microsoft Server 2022
VPS host is IONOS

I removed the default MariaDB Server from the Database Servers list, with the intention of creating a MySQL Server. With that in mind:
  1. Are these database servers only used by the websites? I assume that Plesk uses it's own database?
  2. I have been unable to get MySQL working, so decided to go back to MariaDB as I now know that MariaDB is a MySQL equivalent. However MariaDB is not an option. I only have 'MySQL' and 'Microsoft SQL Server'. I am unable to find solutions for this.
  3. Am I right in thinking that MariaDB is actually the recommended database for Plesk use?
Thanks!
