Resolved Change Virtual Host Directory

[Chad]

Hello,

Currently running CloudLinux 6.8 with Plesk Onyx and would like to change the virtual hosts directory. Have tried running the suggested method found here:

- https://kb.plesk.com/en/1186

Steps:

1. wget http://kb.plesk.com/Attachments/kcs-12467/transvhosts.pl
2. chmod +x transvhosts.pl
3. ./transvhosts.pl --dest-dir /home/www/vhosts/

However end up with the following error: - unable to execute ./transvhosts.pl: No such file for directory

Tried steps a few times with the same result, any insight to help resolve would be appreciated.

Thank you

Hi Chad,

you might experience such issues, when you are using "copy&paste". Pls be informed that, when a command from a website/forum has been copied with HTML/BB-Code - formats over your browser and you then pasted the copied content ( with the additional HTML/BB-Code - formats ) onto your ssh-command - line, you may experience such issues as described. Even if you don't see ( possible ) HTML/BB-Code - formats on your command line ( because your ssh - client can't display them ), they still might exist. The result is, that your copied command will break at some point and possible command - options won't be included in your command. Pls. either COPY such commands from websites/forums FIRST into an ASCII - text - editor ( on windows, you have for example "notepad.exe" ) and afterwards COPY the command AGAIN FROM THERE, before you paste the command onto your command line, or consider to TYPE the provided command at the ssh - command - line, to avoid such issues.

Hello,

I thought this might be the cause for a previous error, so did what you had mentioned before posting the question here to help eliminate related errors.
Typing in this command or copying over to notepad and in presented this error noted here, any other thoughts?

Hi Chad,

pls. make sure that you use the user "root", when performing the above commands and make sure, that you use a "bash" - environment with the SSH - client.

List the current files ( /folders ) in your current folder, when you experience such issues, in order to be able to see the files and their permissions:

ls -lah

Hi Chad,

consider to use the FULL path for your command:

Example command over the command line ( logged in as user "root" ), where "transvhosts.pl" is located at "/root/transvhosts.pl":

perl /root/transvhosts.pl ...

 

[Chad]

Hello,

What happened was missing 'perl' to run the command - adding (perl transvhosts.pl --dest-dir /home/vhosts) corrected and ran appropriately.

Now that this has run, there is an error:

(104)Connection reset by peer: mod_fcgid: error reading data from FastCGI server
Premature end of script headers: index.php

Have looked at a few articles in relation, but not sure if they relate to this scenario - any thoughts on what could be causing this error?

Thank you
