  • 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.

Ubuntu Plesk Install CLI Fails with - ERROR: You should have superuser privileges to install Plesk

Matt Downer

New Pleskian
When I try to run "sudo wget -O - http://autoinstall.plesk.com/one-click-installer | sh" it always stops with error "ERROR: You should have superuser privileges to install Plesk"

Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS (GNU/Linux 3.19.0-25-generic x86_64)

This is a fresh install with the command sudo apt-get updates upgrade run and wget installed. Followed this install guide http://download1.parallels.com/Ples...-migration-guide/index.htm?fileName=65780.htm
