  • 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.

Runtime error: Unable to create dump: 'undef' value passed to XmlNode::setAttribute f

VagaStorm

Basic Pleskian
One of my plesk servers has started giving the following error on backup: "Runtime error: Unable to create dump: 'undef' value passed to XmlNode::setAttribute for 'unit' plesk backup". And might I say, sendinging it only after I've removed the failed backup is in itself a FAIL.

Has anyone see an error like this and how did you resolve it? Theres not a lot of info in it :(

Do you usually use the plesk backup system? I have serious problems with it. On most of my plesk server, I have to use my own script instead. The backup system is what I miss the most from CPanel o_O
 
This issue can be related to database inconsistency - for some reason 'dns_zone' table got 'ttl_unit' equal 300 or something other, whereas it can be either

'second' => 1,
'minutes' => 60,
'hours' => 3600,
'days' => 86400,
'weeks' => 604800

So it got the error. Check it with something like

select id,ttl_unit from dns_zone where ttl_unit not in (1,60,3600,86400,604800);
