  • 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.

Question Migration with secure passwords/plain passwords

JP Kelly

Regular Pleskian
I am trying to migrate a Plesk installation and am getting the warning
"Failed to decode the passwords of some subscriptions users. The passwords will be reset."

It seems some passwords are encrypted and some are not.

The following KB article gives a solution but I am not sure how to proceed.
Migrator Pre-checks displays the following warning: Failed to decode the passwords of some subscriptions users. The passwords will be reset.
The article states:
  1. Log into Plesk
  2. Update the passwords for the affected users/emails.
  3. Perform the pre-checks again.
What method should I use to update the passwords? Does this reset the user's password? I really don't want to reset all the users' passwords.
 
Hello!
It is doesn`t matter what method will you use, migrator will update only affected users(the list of the affected users are listed in Pre-migration checks).
