  • Support for BIND DNS has been removed from Plesk for Windows due to security and maintenance risks.
    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.

Change Hosting Type, User Account Already Exists

RexGoode

New Pleskian
My hosting company just upgraded me to Plesk 12.5.30. They don't support migration. I'm on my own.

I accomplished getting it migrated with just a few fixable warnings, but I want to start hosting my sites on the new installation.

Beginning with one domain, I tried to Change Hosting Type. It asks for a user name. I would like to be able to use the same user names I used on the old installation, but it won't let me. I get a "User Account Already Exists". If the user account already exists, and I know it certainly does, why can't I just attach to it instead of creating a whole new username/password?
