  • 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.

I'm trying to install plesk 9.01 on ubuntu 8.04 using the web installer interface but it keeps error-ing out with this
Errors were encountered while procesing:
/var/cache/apt/archives/plesk-base 9.0.1-ubuntu8.04.build90090127.18.i386.deb
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
ERROR: An error occurred on attempt to install packages. Attention! Your software might be inoperable

When I save the error log from the web and check it back the lines immediately before it are

Checking for the user 'popuser'..
ERROR: It seems there is a user with UID=110 in this system, but Plesk needs the same UID for its operating. Unfortunately, this situation has not yet been resolved.

Is there anyway for me to solve this, I don't have alot of user accounts but wouldn't like to have to change the UID if its going to disable any current account
 
Update:
Uid 110 is used by dhcp as listed in passwd file of my system. Whats the reason for plesk hardcoding a UID and how do I solve it for my system without breaking anything
