  • 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.

Resolved Disabling IPv6 Caused Plesk to Crash - 502 Bad Gateway

Plesk version and microupdate number
Plesk Obsidian Version 18.0.50 Update #2,
I disabled IPv6 on my server, which caused Plesk to crash with a 502 Bad Gateway.

Undoing my changes fixed the problem. Why is this happening?

/var/log/sw-cp-server/error_log
2023/03/01 14:43:08 [emerg] 1015#0: socket() [::]:8443 failed (97: Address family not supported by protocol)
2023/03/01 14:43:13 [emerg] 1441#0: socket() [::]:8443 failed (97: Address family not supported by protocol)
2023/03/01 14:43:18 [emerg] 2191#0: socket() [::]:8443 failed (97: Address family not supported by protocol)

How I disabled IPv6 was to modify /etc/default/grub by adding ipv6.disable=1 then running grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg then rebooting the server.

Plesk is biding to IPv6 :: and should be on 127.0.0.1.

What's the proper way to disable IPv6?
 
Maybe this article can help:
Yes, I found that and decided to turn on IPv6 and enable it for all customers now that we have the proper firewall to handle it.
