  • 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.

mod_rewrite issues migrating from cpanel 403 errors

Hi,

I have recently move to use a parellels plesk setup (9.0.1) from using a cpanel installation and the rewrite rules I had are now not working. I get 403 forbidden errors when I turn my rewrites rules on using .htaccess and I find this in the log

Options FollowSymLinks or SymLinksIfOwnerMatch is off which implies that RewriteRule directive is forbidden:

After doing tonnes of googling and trying alot of stuff mentioned on here and other sites. I have not been able to get anywhere.

mod_rewrite is enabled and this is what I have in my .htaccess file can anyone tell me what to change to get this working?

Options +FollowSymLinks +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /

#RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !\.css$
#RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !\.js$
#RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !\.xml$
#RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !\.rar$
#RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !\.zip$
#RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !\.png$
#RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !\.jpg$
#RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !\.gif$
#RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !\.txt$

RewriteRule ^videos/([A-Za-z0-9-]+)/([0-9])$ /browse_cat.php?category=$1&page=$2 [L]
RewriteRule ^categories/$ /categories.php [L]
RewriteRule ^most-popular/$ /most-popular.php [L]
RewriteRule ^view/([A-Za-z0-9-]+)/([0-9]+)$ /view.php?gid=$2 [L]
RewriteRule ^rss/$ /rss.php [L]
 
Thanks for replying :)

I'm not sure, I'm a bit of a newb when it comes to this. I don't have root access is there anyway to check it or do I need my admin for this?
