  • 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.

What am I missing here? It has to be something stupid simple.

Thank you for the link. I looked at that article, but noticed I was not getting those same errors. I was getting a no packages marked for update error.
 
I went through the steps as suggested in the resolution and came up with the same error. I saw an error along the way for php-sqlite, so I removed that and tried again, but no luck. Steps below:

What about upgrade to latest version of Plesk with native support of fresh version of PHP?
