DNS not working for a domain in a plesk panel (Windows)

DNS not working for a domain in a plesk panel (Windows)

Symptom:
When you are in dedicated Box of windows and using a plesk and you are getting a page not found for a domain name while other domains are working fine in a same box.
All the setting you think are fine and even name server are pointing well then there is a chance of DNS misconfig.

Resolution: Editing the Plesk DNS zone database

When the DNS zone for a domain is managed via Plesk, the status for this domain in the dns_zone table of the database is temporarily set to a value of 2 (to lock it for any further changes) and is then set back to a value of 0 value when the changes are processed. If for some reason the process is interrupted (Plesk restarts for example) the status field value may not get changed back to 0 and stays as 2. Therefore any changes are no longer recorded until the status is changed back to 0.

Please note: to isolate database issues with Plesk and your own web services (MySQL or MS SQL), we recommend and setup Plesk to use MS Access databases. If you have setup Plesk to use MySQL or MS SQL databases you will need to use your preferred database viewer to find the necessary DNS zone table. You can view MS SQL instructions below.

  1. To view and edit the Plesk DNS zone database you will need to use an MS Access database viewer such as MDBPlus, and then open up the pleskmain.db located at:

    C:\Program Files (x86)\Parallels\Plesk\admin\db – Note: password is the same as Plesk admin login.

  2. Check dns_zone records for the problem domain’s entry (domain.com for example):
    1. if there are multiple entries for the same domain; remove the entry that has the incorrect setting of 2;
    2. if there is only one entry for the domain, adjust the value in the “status” column from 2 back to 0.
  3. Save the database.
  4. Go back into Plesk and navigate to the DNS zone settings tab for the affected domain.
  5. Select “Restore Defaults” to rebuild the appropriate entries for the domain

You should now be able to resolve the domain correctly.

For Plesk installations setup to use MS SQL as the default Plesk database:

  1. Login via MSSQL Server Management Studio Express or your preferred MS SQL management tool.
  2. Expand the Plesk database.
  3. Expand the “tables” section.
  4. Scroll down to “dbo.dns_zone“, right-click on this and choose “open table”
  5. Delete or modify the erroneous entry as in Step 2. above.
