  • 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.

File not found (wp-login.php)

Ubuntu Server 2025
Plesk version and microupdate number
18.0.68 Update #1
I'm at my wits end with this. Spent yesterday whole afternoon setting up VMvware, Ubuntu Server 2024 and then Plesk. Got a static IP from my ISP, fixed all the port forwarding and changed the DNS at my domain holder.

I can get to my domain. I even set up EncryptSSL. But, when I land on my domain, I get a Plesk login (login_up.php), instead of Wordpress. When I click on preview inside the WP Toolkit, everything works fine. But when I try to log in (wp-login.php), I get a simple "file not found". Here's what I have done already:
- Document root: "httpdocs"
- PHP: FPM app served by Apache
- NGINX: Proxy mode on
- created .htaccess
- defined WP_HOME and WP_SITEURL
- checked WP_OPTIONS database for home and siteurl (they match)

Nginx is listening on 80 and 443, however Apache for some reason didn't have my website listed as a vhost. I added that

What else can I do? I just don't get it??

It's almost like WordPress doesn't exist on the server, but all the files are there.
