  • 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 How to migrate Drupal away from Plesk?

seancamden

New Pleskian
Server operating system version
Ubuntu 22.04/Debian 12
Plesk version and microupdate number
Plesk Obsidian Version 18.0.63 Update #4
I have a Drupal 7 site currently running on an Ubuntu server managed by Plesk, and I'd like to move it to a Debian server so that I can upgrade it to the current Drupal version (10).
So far I've tried simply copying the site files and the database, and creating a new vhost file, but that has not worked. Drupal serves up the "in maintenance mode" page pretty well, but nothing else will load.
Is there a guide for migrating a Drupal site away from Plesk anywhere? I don't have to use Debian, but I'd like to.
Also, if there's a way to upgrade Drupal without moving away from Plesk, I'd be interested in hearing about that, too.

This was actually pretty easy to fix. Corrected file permissions in DocumentRoot, and allowed overrides in the Apache config, and it's working. Now the real fun begins.
