• Hi, Pleskians! We are running a UX testing of our upcoming product intended for server management and monitoring.
    We would like to invite you to have a call with us and have some fun checking our prototype. The agenda is pretty simple - we bring new design and some scenarios that you need to walk through and succeed. We will be watching and taking insights for further development of the design.
    If you would like to participate, please use this link to book a meeting. We will sent the link to the clickable prototype at the meeting.
  • (Plesk for Windows):
    MySQL Connector/ODBC 3.51, 5.1, and 5.3 are no longer shipped with Plesk because they have reached end of life. MariaDB Connector/ODBC 64-bit 3.2.4 is now used instead.
  • The Horde webmail has been deprecated. Its complete removal is scheduled for April 2025. For details and recommended actions, see the Feature and Deprecation Plan.

Question Plesk with Cloudflare Proxy DNS Records and Letsencrypt..

Hey, maybe there is some help out there with my Cloudflare DNS/SSL Setup.

I have some issues with Letsencrypt Certs while using a domain with Cloudflare and its proxy function, looking for a way, to solve this issue:

I've setup a NS with "_acme-challenge" and "domain name" to autorenew the Letsencrypt certificates with the Cloudflare DNS Extension in Plesk, which works fine.

But as soon as I enable a proxy for an A, AAAA or CNAME record, I get the "ERR_SSL_VERSION_OR_CIPHER_MISMATCH" error.

I know that the Cloudflare Client Certificate is able to protect all the web traffic with SSL, but unfortunately not e-mail traffic.

So my question:
Is it possible, to use the origin Cloudlfare certificate for the main domain web traffic and webmail and use proxy there, but keep the Letsencrypt certificate for all the e-mail traffic of the domain and do not proxy this email subdomain? Will Letsencrypt keep working/renewing itself only for the mail.xxx.xx subdomain and use the origin Cloudflare cert for all the rest?

If so, how is the way to setup this the right way in Plesk, both certs, Cloudlfare and Letsencrypt side by side?

I need to solve this problem, as I run some Nextcloud subdomains with IPv6 DNS only, and I do need the Cloudflare proxy option, to get a valid IPv4 for these Subdomains, as Nextcloud internal updates and App downloads are only working with an IPv4 so far. And of course I do not want to manually renew the certificates, every 3 month!

Help would be nice.
