  • 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.

Forwarded to devs Adding IPv6 removes other IPs from Adapter

Pascal H.

New Pleskian
TITLE:
Adding IPv6 removes other IPs from Adapter
PRODUCT, VERSION, OPERATING SYSTEM, ARCHITECTURE:
Plesk Onyx Version 17.8.11 Update #29 ON Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS ON vServer
PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
Adding an IPv6 from my Subnet under Tools & Settings -> IP Adresses get stuck. After 20 Minutes waiting I tried to reload but cant reach my Server.
Via a rescue VNC I could see that "ip a" returns the adapter with the new IP-Adress but the old ones(IPv4 and v6) are deleted. Even the "plesk -> rereadip" didn't work. Luckily I could restore my server with an older Snapshot.

My solution was to add the IPs manually via CLI and then run "plesk -> rereadip"

This problem didn't occur earlier on my Server with Ubuntu 16.xx.
I didn't upgrade, I completely reinstalled the Server, so it is not an upgrade-fault or something like that.​
STEPS TO REPRODUCE:
Go to Tools & Settings -> IP Adresses and add an IP Adress:
e.g. Adapter: ens18 -> IP: [Prefix]::2/64 -> shared or dedicated doesn't matter.
Klick OK and that's all.​
ACTUAL RESULT:
IP [Prefix]::2/64 gets added to adapter, but the old IPs are getting deleted.
so ip a shows:
ens18:
[Prefix]::2/64 scope global
fe..::(l)... scope link​
EXPECTED RESULT:
IP [Prefix]::2/64 gets added to adapter
so ip a shows:
ens18:
123.456.789.012/32 scope global
[Prefix]::1/64 scope global
[Prefix]::2/64 scope global
fe..::(l)... scope link​

Ok.
Some questions:
1. Do you have netplan installed? (Do you have /usr/sbin/netplan utility? It's from netplan.io package)
2. If "yes" do you have any *.yaml configs in "/etc/netplan/" directory? (I guess you should have at least 10-plesk.yaml).
 
Netplan is default on 18.04. I've had the exact same problem. I configured ipv6 with command line and it kind of worked, but then some process is kicking off that stops the webservers. If I went in to rebuild webserver configuration it would temporarily fix it for a day. Going into the web interface for IP addresses would break it again. I ended up going back to Debian 9 cause this is broken. Was hoping this would be fixed in 17.9 so I've been patiently waiting.

Can you provide some more details?

Which command have you used?

P.S. Netplan support was implemented in 17.8.11. I've checked it with the following:
1. Add new ip-address with command: "plesk bin ipmanage --create 10.52.123.45 -mask 16 -interface ens3 -type shared"
2. Added ip appeared in "/sbin/ip addr" ouput.
3. Also netplan configuration for new ip address was added to "/etc/netplan/10-plesk.yaml"
