Question Error during installation.

Giulio

New Pleskian
Hi, I had this error during the installation on VPS:

Code:
 Trying to create reverse DNS zone... /opt/psa/admin/sbin/mk_reverse_zone[1413]: Canonname is not correct fqdn
/opt/psa/admin/sbin/mk_reverse_zone[1413]: It is impossible to detect the FQDN of the host.
Please make sure that the host name is correctly specified in /etc/hosts and goes right after the host's IP address.
Depending on your OS, you might need to set the host name in /etc/HOSTNAME or /etc/hostname.
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::runtime_error'
  what():  Error on configure reverse DNS zone for localhost : fail to detect hostname

WARNING!
Some problems are found during create reverse DNS zone - there is error during utility '/opt/psa/admin/sbin/mk_reverse_zone' execution, please fix the problem and run it again.(see log file: /var/log/plesk/install/plesk_17.8.11_installation.log)

Continue...

VPS configurations:
  • Debian 9 64bit
  • vCPU 1
  • RAM 1 GB
  • SSD 20 GB
  • 1 IP

How can I solve?
Thanks

UPDATE
While I was writing this post, I had left the terminal in the background and after posting , I read on terminal that the installation had been completed.

in any case if the error reported must be correct, can you help me to understand how?

What is the hostname of the server? Sounds like it may not be set as a FQDN
 
Hi Mark, the hosting is aruba.it its vps products on their site cloud.it.

I would like to make a clarification, the VPS is without management, so is it possible I should have inserted the host or FQDN in debian before installing plesk?
