  • 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.

Hello,

for some time now I have a problem with Plesk Backup Manager. All Backups fail with following Error Message for each Subscription/Domain:

JMS\Serializer\Type\Parser::getConstant(): Argument #1 ($value) must be of type int, null given, called in /opt/psa/admin/plib/vendor/jms/serializer/src/Type/Parser.php on line 69


I tried to track down the error in the backup.log an found that the problem happens while parsing /opt/psa/admin/plib/backup/Agent/Dumper/../Schema/BackupMeta/MigrationDump.MigrationDumpAType.yml

But I didn't get any further than that. Maybe someone had the same problem or any idea how to find a solution?
 
Are there any related errors in panel.log file (Tools & Settings > Log Browser > Plesk)?
 
In that case either install Log Browser extension to view the panel.log file directly from within Plesk or connect via SSH and open the file /var/log/plesk/panel.log to search for related errors to backup.

If you like support to assist with this issue, don't hesitate to open a support ticket. To sign-in to support and open a ticket go to https://support.plesk.com.

If you got your license from a reseller, your reseller should provide support for you. If the reseller does not provide support, here is an alternative to get support directly from Plesk: https://support.plesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/12388090147095-How-to-get-support-directly-from-Plesk
 
There are no related logs. Started another Backup and no logs from the same time.

Only in backup.log I get this:

I am not sure what is causing the error you are encountering. I would recommend to open a support ticker with our support team for an investigation of the issue on your server. To sign-in to support and open a ticket go to https://support.plesk.com.

After some digging, plesk support discovered the issue was due to an outdated version of a WordPress plugin.

Thanks to support, they quickly identified and resolved the problem.
