• 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.

Not sure if this is the right section so apologies if it's not.

I'm trying to move my site from a shared host (which uses cPanel) to VPS (uses Plesk) and I'm finding it really confusing (being new to both VPS and Plesk).

My site has 2 databases:

I've managed to re-create these databases in Plesk:

The first thing I don't understand, is why I can't have the same db user added to both (like I have neblncbt_bash added to both in the first picture). When I click 'add new database user' for the 2nd db and enter the user I added to the 1st database, it says "user already exists". This would make sense if I could see that the user was also added to the 2nd database, but it isn't, it's only been added to the 1st db and I can see "No Database users" under 'database users' list for the 2nd db. Must I use a unique username for each db even though they're seperate? strange.

The second thing I don't understand, is how I can access phpmyadmin, since clicking on 'webadmin' (which I believe should direct me to phpmyadmin?) does nothing. I don't know if it's because phpmyadmin isn't installed because, being new to VPS and everything, I don't know how I can check to see if it is (and after 6 hours their 'support' still haven't replied).

I'm sorry to spam with my noobiness and thanks very much in advance for your time.
