  • 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....
I resolved it following this after reading countless posts: Unable to start apache on Plesk for Linux: (98)Address already in use: make_sock: could not bind to address [::]:443

I just applied the 5th step.

My question now is that before stop/restarting the nginx,
"netstat -tulpn | grep :443" and "netstat -tulpn | grep :80" returned " 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 13498/nginx: worker"

Afterwards both commands returned " 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 2194/nginx: master"

I just wanna use nginx as proxy. Does this cause a problem?

And the ultimate question is why all this happpend at the first place. I didnt do anything special to put myself in such a situation.

Any feedback would be appreciated. Thanks
