• Debian 11 is approaching its end-of-life (vendor EOL date - August 31, 2026). Plesk Obsidian 18.0.80 will be the last release to support it.
    If you are running Plesk Obsidian on Debian 11, we recommend you upgrade those servers to Debian 12 using our dist-upgrade tool.
  • We plan to deprecate and remove the support for XML RPC protocol versions earlier than 1.6.9.1 in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.82. We strongly recommend that you update all existing integrations using earlier versions of the XML RPC protocol to comply with the version 1.6.9.1 specification.

Question Accessing a not registerd domain

batikiotis

New Pleskian
I have added an unregistered domain example.gr to my plesk account. I can access it from several pcs by adding to hosts file in windows the IP example.gr
Is there another way to access it as i want to show it to my customer? it's a wordpress dynamic site.
Thank you
 
Hello batikiotis,

You can use the "Website Preview" feature - it allows you to share a preview link that works anywhere in the world, even if the domain name does not resolve.
 
Preview is not working, i get

This site can’t be reached
dltmonemvasias.gr.172-31-26-200.my-website-preview.com’s server DNS addresscould not be found.

DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NXDOMAIN

And is not working on any domain i have, registered or not

Judging by the error message, you are using the "Quick Preview on a domain name in Plesk" option, which does not work if the selected domain name (dltmonemvasias.gr) does not resolve.

[root@ppu12-5 ~]# host dltmonemvasias.gr
Host dltmonemvasias.gr not found: 3(NXDOMAIN)

Go to Tools & Settings > Website Preview, and select "Default Quick Preview", see if it helps.
