  • 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.

thanks, that was much better. I was able to install and it seems to have gone well. BUT, I got the following warning/error and I have no idea how to access Plesk in a browser. The ip:8443 does not work. What's next? Looking at this host situation... all I have at this point is an IP address and the random name I chose for this server "x30". /etc/hostname has one line x30 in it and /etc/hosts had "127.0.1.1 x30 x30". I added the "real_ip x30 x30" re-run the install just to get at the same error.

Please advise -- exit15

Please make sure that FQDN of the host is correctly specified in /etc/hosts and goes right after the host's IP address

"FQDN" is the Fully Qualified Domain Name ( i.e. server999.exampledomain.com ) - this is the same complete domainname, which points to the IP adress configured on your nameserver for the server.

An example entry in /etc/hosts would look like this:
Code:
127.0.0.1    localhost.localdomain    localhost
XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX    server999.exampledomain.com    server999
... where XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX should be replaced with your unique IP for this server.

The corresponding entry in /etc/hostname is then:
Code:
server999.exampledomain.com

SUCCESS! Since this was a brand new server all I had is an IP address. So.. I pointed one of my domains to that IP, added a CNAME as suggested server999 -- exampledomain.com. Then I added server999.exampledomain.com to etc/hostname and it all worked out. -- Thanks. Now I going to play with Plesk.
