  • 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.

Upgrade from 7.5.4 to 8.1 gone wrong!

Just spent a while reading forums to sort out the major problem that since (via the web interface) trying to upgrade from 7.5.4 to 8.1 stopped email working (receiving) because of HTTPD_INCLUDE_D not defined problem - sorted that for now so i can at least receive email.

I'm left with half the system before the old 7.5.4 and some the new 8.1.

I'm trying to upgrade via the command line now so I can get more info:

I've tried

rpm -U --force --nodeps psa-api-common-7.5.4-fc3.build75060321.20.noarch

but then got a dependcy error for something beginning psa-bu, so did it for that. Now it's just gone back to the api one and I'm stuck.


Can anyone help? Please :)
 
Plenty of other weird things too, for example...

Go to https://<yourdomain>:8443/ and put your log in details in

This then redirects to https://<yourdomain>:8443/login.php3?previous_page=index

But this just gives you the Plesk header/logo at the top!

Then go to https://<yourdomain>:8443/ and you get your control panel come up fine


Any help is really appreciated in getting this fully upgraded.
 
Did you find a way to solve this? I am having the same control panel problems
