  • 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.

Issue Plesk Site Import not working: MariaDB Access Denied

New Pleskian
Server operating system version
Debian 12.9
Plesk version and microupdate number
18.0.67
Hey :)

I hope someone can help me, I already invested more than three hours into solving this problem:
I have two plesk servers, the old one works fine with Plesk Site Import to import WordPress websites. The new one, although with same MariaDB Version (10.11.6) does not work as expected.

When I am starting the Website import, the FTP / Webspace files are transfered, the WP DB is created and also the user, but it then cancels with this error:

CleanShot 2025-02-04 at 22.32.04@2x.png

What I tried:
  1. I tried multiple different websites with different domains, always the same error.
  2. I checked the DB Tables and could not find an error here.
  3. I changed skip-name-resolve - did not work. Some are saying I should change the bind-address, but I do not want external connections.
  4. I compared configurations of old and new server.
I am using Debian 12.9, Plesk Obsidian v18.0.67
 
Hello, @dumoire . Have you tried connecting to that database remotely without Site Import to exclude the possibility of remote connection being restricted on the source server? If not, please try:

mysql -u wawp_yuxp4 -p -h source-server-ip
