  • 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.

Plesk 8.0.1 appears to trash boot config

Another brilliant thing... if you install Plesk 8.0.1 and then update your kernel (with RPM), and you happen to have software raid, it will hose your boot process altogether. At that point you have to log into recovery mode, uninstall the kernel, fix the fstab issue, then reinstall the kernel and then reboot.

I'm no expert on how the boot process works but it seems to take a snapshot of the broken fstab file during kernel install time and even if you fix the fstab in rescue mode, the kernel will not know about it until reinstallation.

ps, i can't believe it's still a problem after all this time.
 
similar issue on FC4 Plesk 8.0.1

Hello, I have a similar problem on FC4 with an install of Plesk 8.0.1. How can I fix it? Here is my info:

[root@air191 ~]# cat /etc/fstab
LABEL=/1 / ext3,usrquota defaults 1
LABEL=/boot /boot ext3 defaults 1 2
/dev/devpts /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0
/dev/shm /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0
/dev/proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
/dev/sys /sys sysfs defaults 0 0
LABEL=SWAP-sda2 swap swap defaults 0 0
none /tmp tmpfs defaults,noexec,nosuid 0 0

[root@air191 ~]# cat /etc/mtab
/dev/proc /proc proc rw 0 0
/dev/sys /sys sysfs rw 0 0
/dev/devpts /dev/pts devpts rw,gid=5,mode=620 0 0
/dev/sda1 /boot ext3 rw 0 0
/dev/shm /dev/shm tmpfs rw 0 0
none /tmp tmpfs rw,noexec,nosuid 0 0
none /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc binfmt_misc rw 0 0
/proc /var/named/run-root/proc none rw,bind 0 0

[root@air191 ~]# mount
/dev/proc on /proc type proc (rw)
/dev/sys on /sys type sysfs (rw)
/dev/devpts on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,gid=5,mode=620)
/dev/sda1 on /boot type ext3 (rw)
/dev/shm on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw)
none on /tmp type tmpfs (rw,noexec,nosuid)
none on /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc type binfmt_misc (rw)
/proc on /var/named/run-root/proc type none (rw,bind)
 
here's where to change it from:


[root@air191 ~]# cat /etc/fstab
LABEL=/1 / ext3,usrquota defaults 1
LABEL=/boot /boot ext3 defaults 1 2
/dev/devpts /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0
/dev/shm /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0
/dev/proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
/dev/sys /sys sysfs defaults 0 0
LABEL=SWAP-sda2 swap swap defaults 0 0
none /tmp tmpfs defaults,noexec,nosuid 0 0


TO:

[root@air191 ~]# cat /etc/fstab
LABEL=/1 / ext3 defaults,usrquota 1
LABEL=/boot /boot ext3 defaults 1 2
/dev/devpts /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0
/dev/shm /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0
/dev/proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
/dev/sys /sys sysfs defaults 0 0
LABEL=SWAP-sda2 swap swap defaults 0 0
none /tmp tmpfs defaults,noexec,nosuid 0 0
 
This works for me:

LABEL=/1 / ext3 defaults,usrquota 1 1

Thanks!
