  • Support for BIND DNS has been removed from Plesk for Windows due to security and maintenance risks.
    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.

Summary thread for all the broken things in migration manager?

HostaHost

Regular Pleskian
Is there one? If not, can we start one? So far we've encountered, or seen in this forum:

* Migrations from older versions to 10 misses all imap folders other than inbox
* Migrations from older versions to 10 misses files that begin with period in the httpdocs folder, such as .htaccess
* Migrations from older versions to 10 miss forwards and aliases on email addresses

It's really quite impossible to understand how the migration manager can't be fixed; it has been broken ever since Plesk 9 came out. There has not been a single version of Plesk released since 8.6 where the migration manager did not mess things up in one way or another, whether it be missing files, not assigning the SSL certs, ignoring permissions on the directories under /private that are migrated, etc. How hard is it to use tar or rsync to produce a perfect copy of at least the files that move to a new server? Obviously there's more involved in extracting the non-file stuff out of the psa database but seriously, it can't even copy files correctly?
