• Halloween is coming! To celebrate the occasion, we dusted off a couple of old skins, and even created a brand new one (Pixel).
    To get into the festive spirit, install the Skins extension.
  • The new Python extension is now available. It allows customers to deploy and manage WSGI-based Python applications on their websites directly from Plesk.
  • The Plesk Mobile apps for iOS and Android and the Plesk Mobile Center extension have been deprecated, and are no longer available for new installations. In Plesk Obsidian 18.0.84, the Plesk Mobile Center extension will be removed from servers during the upgrade, and the Plesk Mobile apps will lose their server management features.
  • The Social Login extension has been deprecated and will be removed in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.84. After that, it will no longer be possible to log in to Plesk with a Google, Facebook, GitHub account, or with a passkey. Plesk usernames and passwords, as well as logging in with a WebPros Account, are not affected.

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
