• Debian 11 is approaching its end-of-life (vendor EOL date - August 31, 2026). Plesk Obsidian 18.0.80 will be the last release to support it.
    If you are running Plesk Obsidian on Debian 11, we recommend you upgrade those servers to Debian 12 using our dist-upgrade tool.
  • We plan to deprecate and remove the support for XML RPC protocol versions earlier than 1.6.9.1 in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.82. We strongly recommend that you update all existing integrations using earlier versions of the XML RPC protocol to comply with the version 1.6.9.1 specification.

Can I change default http_root (httpdocs) in Plesk For windows?

Can I change default http_root (httpdocs) in Plesk For windows?

My problem is this.

My application is written so that it requires installation into a folder d:\www_apps\exampledomain.com\ (starting point of a very complex application)

This far everything is ok… I’ve changed Virtualhosts location using Plesk configurator and new domain appears in d:\www_apps\ -directory as it should. (d:\www_apps\exampledomain.com\)

How ewer iis is pointig in to d:\www_apps\exampledomain.com\httpdocs\ which is not what I want.

I should be able to configure plesk so that when creating a new domain iis is pointing in to d:\www_apps\exampledomain.com\ and default.htm is in that directory not in subdirectory \httpdocs

Is that possible?

This can be done with Plesk Reconfigurator:

Start > all programs > SWSoft > Plesk > Plesk Reconfigurator > Change Virtual Host Location.
 
No it can not.

It changes virtual hosts root location, but thet is not the problem.

Problem is virtual hosts directory structure.

If I change virtual hosts location I get this:

d:\www_apps\vhost1.com\.. directory structure of vhost
d:\www_apps\vhost2.com
…
So Plesk creates like this:

d:\www_apps\vhost2.com\httpdocs\default.asp

What I need is to be able to locate vhost2.com:s default.asp and applications startingpoint like this:

d:\www_apps\vhost2.com\default.asp

What I’m trying to say that I don’t need (can not use) that extra directory structure under vhost’s root.

It is not possible , this is Plesk design, to create domain folder (security boundary) - then subfolders
