  • Support for BIND DNS has been removed from Plesk for Windows due to security and maintenance risks.
    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.

Unknown errors in Event viewer -> Application log

I'm having this error all the time, for which I cannot find solution:

In Event Viewer -> Application log

1st - info message:
listening on IPv4 interface TCP/IP Interface 2, xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx#53

2nd - error message:
could not listen on UDP socket: permission denied

3rd - error message:
creating IPv4 interface Loopback Interface 1 failed; interface ignored

and then again for every IP address, and on and on...

(note: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is server's IP address)

Does anyone have a clue what might cause this and how to fix it?

Edit: here's the screenshot

It is DNS server problem, probably Bind 9.2.4
Check your firewall in Plesk CP there must be rules which allow both UDP/TCP 53rd ports
If your WIndows 2003 is not with SP1, check Windows firewall for same ports

It is DNS server problem, probably Bind 9.2.4

Microsoft DNS Server 5.2.3790.1830 @ Windows 2003 Server

Check your firewall in Plesk CP there must be rules which allow both UDP/TCP 53rd ports
If your WIndows 2003 is not with SP1, check Windows firewall for same ports

Okay, you got me lost here... I've checked the Plesk firewall and saw there are 2 rules:

DNS TCP -> 53 / TCP
DNS UDP -> 53 / UDP

It's clearly they both use the same port. What exactely should I do now? Change the port of UDP to, lets say, 54?
 
No, it is OK, TCP and UDP use different sockets to bind ports.
Well, the next step:
Check TaskManager and event logs for "named" (exactly)

John, I wrote it down (and attached screenshot) in my first post.
As for the Task Manager, what exactely should I be looking at?
 
Sorry, didn't pay attention to your .gif

Mea culpa :)

1.Go to computer management, Services, look for Plesk Name Server
2.Right click->Properties->Set Startup_type Disabled->Stop service-click OK

Thanks... it resolved the problem :) how did you know what to do? And what was "Plesk Name Server" for?
 
Weird... Thing is I don't remember whether whis happened before v7.5.5 update...
I've used MS DNS server in "Components management" within Plesk from the beginning.
