  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.
  • 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.

CNAME redirects to Plesk default page

New Pleskian
Hi everyone

I seem to be having a problem setting the cname records for my domain.
Whenever I set a cname record to an existing domain, either pointing to subdomain or a domain outside of my server it will only return the Plesk default page.

E.g.
cname.mydomain.com <cname> subdomain.otherdomain.com
cname.mydomain.com <cname> subdomain.mydomain.com

I am using Plesk 11.5.30 with update #48

Also I followed the steps mentioned in other threads or forums and already restarted apache and dns services, nothing seems to help.

I recall having had a similar problem using an earlier version of Plesk (about 5 years ago) when I had to create the cname records via root access but that was a server I was familiar with so I'd prefer not having to go there again.

Any suggestions highly appreciated.
