Plesk 11.x / Windows :: Migration - DNS Server Does Not Support Networks In Transfer Restrictions Template
Oct 18, 2013
I'm migrating from Plesk 9.5 to 11 and I'm getting the following on my Transfer Pre-Check from within the Migration Manager."The destination DNS server does not support networks in the Transfer Restrictions Template, but some subscriptions have networks in DNS transfer restrictions. The records with network IP addresses in the DNS transfer restrictions will not be restored."
I've gone to Server, DNS Settings, Transfer Restriction Template and added the new server's IP to the list of allowed networks to no avail. I also couldn't find any documentation on what the cause might be.
I had some question about the migration tool : My task is to migrate a domain from a server with plesk 9 version to another server with plesk 12 version.
1. Does the migration includes the ftp accounts contained in the domain ? 2. During the migration can users from the plesk 9 server still connect to the ftp server and continue working on it ?
After a server migration, some critical Plesk settings were not copied across, even though the option to backup/restore panel configuration was used. e.g.
skeleton (vhosts.skel folder) php.ini (Program Files (x86)ParallelsPleskAdditionalPleskPHP5* folder) Default site (vhostsdefault folder) health config (Program Files (x86)ParallelsPleskadminconfcustom-health-config.xml) Additional Administrator accounts
Is there a way to get these things to backup and restore that I am doing wrong?
Are there other important settings/data that I have missed from that list? I am still paying to keep the old server in case I discover something else!
Using Plesk Backup & Restore for disaster recovery will lose these settings unless they take extra steps. e.g. I now have a simple batch file that copies these files to a private folder on one of the domains before the daily backup kicks in.
We are migrating an existing multi-site Windows2003/IIS6 web hosting system with
CFusion8 MS Access backend databases SQL2000 backend databases http and https site access
to
Windows2012 R2/IIS8.5 with CFusion10 MS Access backend databases (not updated) SQL2014 databases http and https site access
On the new system we are looking to add Plesk12 to give users easier management of their own websites.I am about to install the trail version of Plesk12 WebHOST.I have the following questions:
1. Can we use the plesk migration tool to move the websites from the old IIS6 to the new IIS8.5 server? 2. If not, am I right to think we would migrate from IIS6 to IIS8.5 manually and then import these websites into Plesk12 from the new server? 3. Can I migrate the existing websites piecemeal over onto the new server and into the Plesk control panel at the same time as creating brand new websites under the control panel? 4. Once Plesk is installed on the new IIS server is there a KB article on how to add all these existing websites to Plesk - I could not find one. 5. Is the local windows administrator account used for the install used to run any services?
I Foolishly entrusted a server migration to seeksadmin recently... however they seem unable to provide the required level of support to complete this task... Up to now the average response time per query is between 12 to 24 hours... amazing as we have paid for one hour response package.
We have a small window of opportunity to complete a seemless migration tonight... but again seeksadmin are nowhere to be seen...
We have coordinated with our datacentre and informed our customers that the move will take place tonight, however seeksadmin are either asleep or just can't be bothered to respond... which leaves us with no other option than to try and locate an alternative support company to assist with this migration...
All accounts are copied... it is just a case of hardening the server and installing third party softwares, ensuring all data is up to date and addressing any issues which may arise...
Can anyone suggest a tech/support company who can help out at short notice? Migration will start at CET 01:00 and needs to be completed during the night before my users come back online in the morning...
I'm working on transferring my Hostings to a new server, but ran into some problems.
Transferring the data from one Plesk 12 server to another works quite well using the migration manager, although you have to create the service plans by hand as well as you need to work through the server configuration parameters.
After re-creating the service plans I wanted to link and sync them to the subscriptions, but unfortunately I have no success to do so, because everytime I try to get them in sync, it tells me that Apache ASP support is enabled for the subscription and needs to be disabled. Plesk then tells me, the setting is disabled, but next time you try to sync the subscription... ASP is back enabled.
Problem is that on the old server I had Apache ASP enabled and used it in my hostings.
I tried to solve the problem using the command line tools, but "./subscription -u domain.name -asp false" returns "SUCCESS: Update of domain 'domain.name' completed.", but you can guess, same problem.
As a last resort I disabled Apache ASP support for my hostings on the old server, deleted everything on the new one and I got no warnings before migrating about the missing ASP feature.
But unfortunately this procedure ended up with the same problem as before.
Is there a way to remove the ASP support from the existing subscriptions?
Haven't posted on WHM in some time but wanted to drop a line in dedicated regarding SFN support.
I recently migrated a dedicated srv to InterWorx running Lite Speed (as apache) on CentOS 5. (srv was running PSA 9 on CentOS)
Being the NEWB that I am.....I needed a little "hand holding" with this setup (especially the Lite Speed config). SFN support went way out of their way to assist. What is enjoyable about their support is the tech's have never responding to many of my "NEWB" questions in a demeanoring way. They explain things in detail. Tickets are always answered promptly.
I just wanted to give a "shout-out" to Dan, Brad, Sean, Ryan, Mike, and all the other SFN support techs >> AWESOME SUPPORT GUYS
I just wanted to warn the rest of you as to my experiences with Limestone Networks.
I've been calling them for half an hour now, and just keep getting a voice mail box.
This is on top of the fact that the reason I'm calling it to check up on a ticket I submitted weeks ago which is still unresolved (they go for days without answering it, and then when I poke them about it they comment and disappear again for days).
What is really disappointing is that all of this is after I spoke to one of their lead guys there, who gave me his email address and told me to bring any issues to him if I still had problems with the support. I sent him an email last week, and never got a response.
So, if you're looking for excellent prices, great machines, an excellent control panel, and to be blown off my support, Limestone Networks is someone you should check out.
I just finished to migrate my Plesk 10.5 to 12 and everything is great now.
I just have a little problem with SMTP authorization.
This option, if i'm not doing something wrong, is located on Mail Settings and especially in the section "Relay options". I ticked "authorization is required" and "SMTP".
But when I try to check it on my email client, I can send emails with or without the the SMTP authorization option on the email client.
While attempting to migrate from previous version of Plesk Panel Windows to current (Windows 2012 R2 with Plesk Panel 12) version, following error appears which stops PMM to proceed further.
Error: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'C:ParallelsPleskPMM sessions20141117102120197capability_info'
This error is generated for all subscriptions which we are trying to migrate and above file can indeed be confirmed missing.
I started a migration from HELM3 to Plesk 11.5 for a client.After 12 hours it failed.the error log says ERROR:()Unable to download dump files to local store.
ERROR:()You were not connected because a duplicate name exists on the network. If joining a domain, go to System in Control Panel to change the computer name and try again. If joining a workgroup, choose another workgroup name no other server with this hostname or workgroup exists on our network?
I recently realized that domainkeys headers are not added to mail messages that are generated on our server. We are using MailEnable Enterprise 8.60 (upgraded on the Stardart edition, that is installed with Plesk).
I thought the problem could be related with this upgrade and created a new VM and tried that out. Installed Windows Server 2012 R2 Std, enabled DNS and IIS with ASP.NET versions, applied all updates, installed Plesk 12 and Upgraded to MailEnabled Enterprise. On the new server mails are going with the correct domainkeys headers.
Now I think that the problem was generated because of the Migration. On the old server Plesk 11.5 was installed and we didn't have any domainkeys issues. When we created our new server, with the same steps I wrote below, and migrated our backup to the new server, domainkeys headers weren't there anymore.
I couldn't find any documentation about this issue. Is there any commands to reset the settings related to domainkeys or may be it's a curruption in the psd database?
When I try to migrate from plesk 11.5 to Plesk 12.0 appears this error "Backup has wrong signature. Restoration prohibited" and migration is not performed . The Plesk 12.0 is a new installation in a new Windows 2012 R2 server.
The scenario is like this I have Plesk + IIS + windows server and I want to store Plesk backups to a partition in linux server. So I have created a samba share and mounted it under the windows server. the issue showing is it is not possible to write to samba shared partition.
how to limit the amount of data transfered for a single client in a share hosting scenario using Windows 2003/2008 and NOT using a off-the-shelf control panel.
Within IIS you can limit the number of connections and throttle the transfer rate, but I don't see how to limit the amount of data transferred.
Are the Control Panels monitoring the log files and totaling the amount of data transferred or is there another way to implement data transfer limits?
Code: Unable to update . An error occurred while processing your key. You can try updating it later.
So I log into Plesk license management and click 'Retrieve Keys'. The following message is displayed:
Code:
Unable to connect to license server [URL] .... cURL error description: transfer closed with outstanding read data remaining(18)
There are posts about the curl error on other sites, but they all seem to be from developers and the solution is to program cUrl differently, so as a Plesk user this option obviously isn't open to me.
im using old htm pages work with php which works on localhost, but upon upload to yahoo server i need to upload a revised .htaccess which yahoo restricts
how can i read my htm pages in yahoo to work or read php in it?
Is there a good windows server support company? There seem to be plenty for linux and Cpanel but not for windows. We are looking to do a per issue or per ticket support plan as we have multiple servers. We would also like someone that knows windows VPS - virtuozzo.
