• 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.

Change default CFIDE IIS Virtual Directory for new sites

Brian H

New Pleskian
Hi there.

I have coldfusion running fine with plesk 8.3, and whenever I create a new domain, it creates virtual directory inside of IIS for /CFIDE -> c:\inetpub\wwwroot\cfide.

Now, I want this /CFIDE mapping to go to a different location since I am securing my CFIDE. I am going to create a new folder . c:\inetpub\wwwroot\cfide_pub, and I want plesk to create the default /CFIDE mapping for every new site to point to this new location. I can easily change the existing virtual directory locations in IIS, but I want to configure plesk to use this new CFIDE path automatically for all new sites creates so that I don't have to manually fix it every time I add a new site.

So far I have been unable to find the configuration parameter in plesk to check this. Any idea? The CF administrator will still exist in the old c:\inetpub\wwwroot\cfide, but no one will have access to it except for an IIS site that I will create manually in IIS.

This is operating under the expectation that Plesk contains a setting somewhere to store this path. It is possbile that plesk is accessing the neo-runtime.xml in the coldfusion/lib directory to pull up this mapping, but I doubt it.
