  • 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 Switched Server from Plesk 17.8.11 to 18.0.21

Puma7

New Pleskian
Hi,

I have a big issue but I have no clue where I should start to investigate this issue :/

What happened:
I decided to use a new Server from Hetzner with Plesk Obsedian and which from my old Server with Plesk Onyx (always the latest version). Both a running on Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS‬ with similar hardware.
I used the "Migration & Transfer Manager" to transfer data and databases to the new server. Everything is running and seams to be fine. But i noticed the the two Shopware Shops which I transferred act weird if I want to send E-Mails.
The only log that I could find was:
Code:
{"exception":"[object] (Zend_Mail_Protocol_Exception(code: 0): Connection timed out at /var/www/vhosts/shop.com/httpdocs/ShopDir/engine/Library/Zend/Mail/Protocol/Abstract.php:273)"} {"uid":"ad5d213"}

Now I thought it would be an issue with the Firewall (Hardware and/or Software) or the SMTP Server blocks the IP of the Server. But I con't find any issues.

Has anyone a idea what else could lead to an connection time out?
Maybe some permissions are not correct?

P.S.
The SMTP Server is smtp.office365.com with tls on port 587
 
Ok, I know now the reason ... it's IPv6
But I have absolutely no clue why. Maybe and Ubuntu kernel issue?

What happens:
After I restart the Server all connections work fine. "ping6 google.com" works great
After 10-30 minutes "ping6 google.com" doesn't work any more. No logs, no clue.
Also mails don't work because the server tries to send them over ipv6 but cant connect to the destination. But DHCP6 seam to work. The Server knows the destination ipv6 address but simply can't get the information through.

I'm really confused what cloud cause such an issue on a fresh Ubuntu+Plesk+Hetzner constellation. I would be really happy about further ideas how to solve such an issue.

I hotfixed the problem by deactivating the ipv6 with:
net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6=1
net.ipv6.conf.default.disable_ipv6=1
 
Can you connect to the above SMTP from the new server's shell? Try:

Code:
openssl s_client -starttls smtp -showcerts -connect smtp.office365.com:587

EDIT: Please disregard, I just saw your second post. I don't have any experience with Hetzner, perhaps another forum member will be able to help. Their support should also be aware of any similar IPv6 issues...
