  • 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.

PHP MySQL connection

I've just upgraded from a previous version of plesk and now my MySQL connection from the PHP application no longer works. The database has been created in Plesk and the correct username is there. This is what I'm using:

$dbhost = "localhost";
$dbuser = "user";
$dbpass="password";
$dbname="database1";

$link = mysql_connect($dbhost, $dbuser, $dbpass);
mysql_select_db($dbname, $link) or die(mysql_error());

Can anyone see a reason why this doesn't work.
 
Not sure if this helps but after upgrading from Plesk 7.x to Plesk 8.x some of my PHP applications didn't work.

It was because the configuration files in my PHP apps were set to look for files in /home/httpd/vhosts/ which is where websites are hosted in Plesk 7.x

However in Plesk 8.x they are hosted in /var/www/vhosts/

I had to change all references to get my applications working again.

Hope this helps.
