• 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.

7.5.4 to 8.0.1 Domain Backup Conversion

I have a major problem--I backed up all my domains on an individual basis in Plesk 7.5.4, then re-imaged my server. Now, Plesk 8.0.1 doesn't recognize the backups. Please help! I have 20 domains that are dead...
 
PROGRESS!

I just figured out the backup dumps are MIME encoded, and that WinZip can read it, and dump it into UNKNOWN.xxx files. Those files are a mixture of XML and tar.gz files. When expanding the tar.gz files, I noticed that it includes the domain.ext/ files from the old /home/httpd/vhosts/domain.ext/ from 7.5.4. I have successfully restored one of the domains that doesn't have email or MySQL.

I still need help on mail and mysql, though...
 
MySQL is GZipped in one of the files. It's just a dump. AWESOME. Now for the mail...
 
I'm come to a screeching halt--some of my domains have more than 2 gigs of information, and the decoder feels these are too big and quits. *Sigh*

Anyone? Please?
