  • 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.

DNS problem: NXDOMAIN looking up TXT for _acme-challenge.tradeposerp.com - check that a DNS record exists for this domain
When I tray to install let's encrypt SSL certificate I always see this error message even if I have the TXT record added to the domain DNS

Why this is happening?
Any help please!
Thank you.
 
This means your dns records were not resolving correctly at the time. You can always do a check with the 'dig' command.

Use 8.8.8.8 for Google DNS and 1.1.1.1 for Cloudflare DNS.
Bash:
dig TXT _acme-challenge.tradeposerp.com @8.8.8.8

Alternatively you can use the Google DNS Lookup tool.
As you can see, there is no dns record present at this moment.

EDIT:
I found your issue. Your Nameservers are pointing to Hetzner's DNS Console. You need to create the TXT record there.

OR you can point your nameservers to your Plesk panel and add the TXT record there.
