• 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.

Issue Cron errors after Hostname change

PlesxUser346456

New Pleskian
Server operating system version
CentOS Linux 7.9.2009 (Core)
Plesk version and microupdate number
Plesk Obsidian v18.0.60_build1800240421.18
After changing the server hostname via the Plesk console, I began to receive emailed cron job alerts. Below are samples of the cron job errors. I've tested it on 3 servers and all 3 servers send the exact same errors at the same scheduled cron job time.

Details:
Linux server is CentOS 7 and has to be due to older code that is not supported on newer OSs​
Plesk and the server are all updated​
restarted the server​
Running the command hostname within SSH provides the same expected output.​

Has anyone else seen this and know how to resolve it?
 
I changed the hostname via Plesk Admin > Tools and Settings > General Settings (Server Settings)
Perfect, that would be the right way to change the hostname. I thought I'd ask to be sure :)

Seems unlikely to me that changing the hostname would cause those cron errors, but I can't be sure.
