  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.
  • 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.

SSL renewal

Hello,
I have an old Plesk server, 7.6. Some client needs to renew an SSL certificate wihich is already installed, and has been running since last year. Domain is fine, has its own IP, certificate is fine too.

Now he wants to renew the SSL cert, he uses Starfield as certificate provider.
He sent me 2 files, a p7b and a crt file..I tried to paste the certificate from the crt file, but I got
Unable to set the certificate: Incompatible private key/certificate pair

If it was installing a new one, it would be simple..delete the private key, and the CSR, recreate them, rekey the certificate..But for renewal?
There is no help on Plesk about this, or knowledgebase, and on forums i found only about installing a brand new one.
Any ideas?
Thanks is advance.

Hello bluegen,

You should convert P7B or CRT to PEM format.
You may use OpenSSL tool with the command

openssl pkcs7 -in cert.p7b -print_certs -text -out cert.pem
