  • 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.

Question I have changed all Ubuntu permissions and I cannot log in

GermanMoyano95

New Pleskian
Server operating system version
Ubuntu 22.04
Plesk version and microupdate number
18.0.56
I have changed all Ubuntu permissions by mistake, directories to 755 and files to 644. At that moment Plesk has broken and I cannot access it from SSH, I have mounted a Ubuntu DVD, and I have entered via SSH to the Ubuntu terminal, I have mounted my plesk partition and I want to login plesk but my root user password does not work, It seems that the database with the passwords is not working. I hope you can help me otherwise I will lose all my websites.
 
reinstall the system and copy over the data, as there is no sane way to recover your server.

but a "chmod 700 ./root ./root/.ssh" on the mounted plesk partition should at least allow you to login again. (as Ubuntu will not allow an SSH logon, when stuff in the root folder is readable by anyone)
 
I hope you made a snapshot before doing anything or at least have a backup, otherwise best bet is to reinstall and move over the files or do what christophro
