  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.
  • 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.

Hi,
it seems like Plesk CLI Commands are unable to process space characters in Parameters.
For example:
Bash:
# plesk bin service_plan --info "Default Admin"
An error occurred while getting the hosting plan information: Unknown option 'Admin': /usr/local/psa/bin/service_plan --info Default Admin
I tried using double quotes, single quotes, Escaping with Backslash… The command always fails at the space.
The same happens with every cli command we tried.

Does anyone know of a way to provede the command with the correct names, which contain spaces?
 
Thanks for your reply. It really helped.

When I try to execute the command from the bash, which is started by ssh, I have this problem. When I start a new bash from within it works as it should.
I don't really understand why this happens, but now I can at least work correctly with the CLI.
