  • 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.

Hi, so deployed a DO server and plesk. Got the IP and put it in browser. Logged in. Asked me to change password, I did. Then it showed this:



This "Setting up plesk panel" keeps on going and it was close to 10 mins. Thought something was messed up, so closed the browser and deleted the droplet.

Create a new droplet, took that IP, and put it in browser and after setting password, again over 10 mins and again stuck on "Setting up Plesk Panel".

Btw, tried two different browsers but same thing.

Is this supposed to take this long? Saw YT videos and it took them only a couple of seconds.

What could be the issue?
 
This usually should not take any longer than a minute or two. However note that when the server IP becomes visible on the DO dashboard after you've created a droplet the server often hasn't finished installing Plesk. Desipede the fact that the loading bar in the DO dashboard disappeared (and the IP gets shown). It can easily take a another 20 to 30 minutes before the install is fully completed.

I am not sure why the Plesk "set-up" take that much time for you. Best advice I can give is to give it some time ..

Deleted that droplet and tried with another one, it finished within a couple of seconds.
