  • 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.

Qmail Meltdown

Hello, I hope someone can help me get my system functioning again. We currently have Plesk 9.2.1 running on SuSe Enterprise 10.0. I had a strange problem with not being able to delete a user. During my troubleshooting I found tons of posts on the forums referring to running the "mchk" utility.

I ran the utility it seemed to take forever. Once it was done I started to get:

Sorry. Although I'm listed as a best-preference MX or A for that host,
it isn't in my control/locals file, so I don't treat it as local. (#5.4.6)

On all of my domains I am hosting. I went in to a domain and disabled email for that domain and then enabled it back. I stopped getting the errors and I could telnet to port 25 and run a basic email through, which was accepted. However All emails are now bouncing with this:

Hi. This is the qmail-send program at plesk.
I'm afraid I wasn't able to deliver your message to the following addresses.
This is a permanent error; I've given up. Sorry it didn't work out.

<[email protected]>:

There is no reason attached to the bounce at all. It just says sorry. I am at a loss and currently am completely down. Anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks for any help...
 
Update to situation:

It appears that the filesystem had a few issues...I booted to single user mode and ran "reiserfsck" to repair the file system. Once this was done I re-ran the mchk. Again Things did not work properly. The logs mentioned something about Dr.Web which I do not use and had disabled. I then enable Dr. Web and soon after diabled it again. All the problems went away.

Kind of quirky if you ask me.
