  • 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.

Resolved Use same Let's Encrypt certificate on new server without regenerating a new one

Hi !

I finally acquired a new server with Debian 12 and Plesk to replace my Debian 9 server. I am in the process of migrating my sites and I prefer to do it by hand rather than using Plesk Migrator.

When I move a site, I have to regenerate a Let's Encrypt certificate which forces me to wait for the DNS to propagate with the TXT record for the challenge.

Is there a way to skip this step and reuse the current certificate without regenerating a new one which results in a DNS change?

Maybe is it possible to modify some files or entrires to use the previous TXT record value already in DNS servers cache ? So no need to wait for DNS propagation ?

Thanks.

Not sure and I would recommend to check renewal controls in the SSL It! extension.

Let me also tell a few words about the SSL It! feature that allows Plesk Admin to see all certificates and their expiration date centrally :)
"Main Menu / Extensions / My Extensions / SSL It! (the "Open" button)",

After some time, you can double check that everything is ok and certificates are renewed on time.
