  • 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.

Password changed

Hi there,

We just upgraded from SB 2.1.3 to SB 3.0.2 on Linux. We also migrated all websites from the old SB but noticed that all users now have different password.

Yes, we can manually change all the password but since there are more than 200 users i would like to know if there any way we can do it automatically.

I think this is a common issue for everyone migrating from old version...

Thank you!
 
Yes, you are right. During migration, passwords of resellers are changed. Also, passwords for site owners created in the process of preparatory migration are generated. See information on users' passwords in the <sitebuilder-root>tmp/migration/migration-passwords.log file. In the migration-passwords.log file, information is stored in a table with vertical lines used as separators. The table has the following format:

| User name | Password | E-mail | User role |

Password for appropriate user in Sitebuilder database can be updated with following command:

mysql> update user set user_password=md5('NEW_PASSWORD') where user_name='USER_NAME';

So you can get the list of user names from migration files or directly from database, compose list of password for users and right a little script which will update password for each user.

Hope this information will be helpful.
