• 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.

RHEL 4 Plesk 7.5 to 8.0 Stuck at 7.5 after upgrade --Please help!

Hello,

I had some free time to night to upgrade Plesk to 8 and was prepared to be around if it exploded, which it really didn't do.

I upgrade using the Updater in the admin panel and upgraded all packages for 7.5.

After that I then proceeded through the 8.0 upgrade and got stuck because I upgraded PHP to 5+. I downgraded to the PHP 4.4.2 and proceeded to upgrade and ran into a few missing packages which I had to manually install using up2date. Finnally I got through most of the packages with Base Packages left.

No matter how many times I ran the update on base packages for 8.0 it wouldn't recognize as being updaded.

Upon login it still says Plesk 7.5.

When I go into the updater Plesk 7.5 has a yellow exclaimation mark saying "updating or adding new components' and Plesk 8 has a red exlaimation mark saying "Upgrading to new control panel version"

Going into the Plesk 8 update all items are checked off and green.

If I go into Plesk 7.5.4 updater it says
base packages are needed to updated and along with Plesk API. I run these but they never complete.

Is 7.5.4 suppose to dissappear after the update?

What do I need to do to finish off this upgrade?

Is there a way to force the upgrade to start over again easily?

I can't believe such an upgrade would be released without proper testing. 6/10 people go down when upgrading or experience some bug of some form.

What doesn't kill you makes you stronger right?

BTW: I have the Plesk 8 desktop now when I login.
 
I am appauled with the release of 8.0 not being tested prior to release.

It's kicked the living **** out or server.

Very unprofessional.
