  • 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.

Question Plesk Obsidian on Windows Server 2019 Essentials - is it supported?

Hi, given the recent developments with the Juicy Potato exploit we're looking at running Obsidian on Windows 2019 Essentials. Is this a tested combination? We're not interested in anything fancy like Active Directory integration, just run it as a basic Plesk shared hosting server. Feedback appreciated.
Thanks.
 
I am sure it should work. Why not test it via Virtualbox and using plesk trial licence :) I think if it can support IIS then it will be fine as that is all that is used from Plesk's Side. Everything else is thirdparty for example, Mailenable, Mariadb,Bind,etc.
 
I don't think the Plesk trial license will allow us to run 100+ subscriptions on the same 2019 Win Essential server, will it? I'm specifically interested in the limitations on the number of local users enforced by the Windows license. I've asked a similar question here, only to get a very vague response that didn't clarify anything:
Microsoft Windows Server 2008R2, Server 2012, Server 2012R2 and Server 2016 are vulnerable to Juicy Potato exploit
My question is rather simple: can we run Plesk Obsidian on Windows 2019 Essentials for 100+ subscriptions?
 
Your biggest issue is going to be licensing, though if you are using it to host, that's a separate hosting license for shared hosting
