"hosting for this domain is not configured"

[digital_soul18]

Hi guys,

you guys are my last resort, the tech support team are very hard to deal with.

I've recently installed plesk 8.0.1 on my fedora 2 system and have had some problems.

What i'm trying to do is replace my dodgy windows 2000 server with IIS to linux plesk system. Currently my windows machine holds all my accounts and resolves DNS, does email etc. All the domains that I host point to my server (ns1.digitalsoultech.com). So after successfully installing plesk now what I have done to test my domains is transfer all DNS,HTTP ports in my router to forward to my linux machine (very late at night too so it wont matter to my clients). I'm thinking that theoretically this should work fine and that anyone from the internet trying to access any of my domains should get to my IP and my router should forward any relelvant packets to the linux machine and it should all work fine.

So when i set up my account for my website (www.digitalsoultech.com) on the plesk machine and then forward HTTP and DNS ports to my linux machine and test it it always shows the "
This is the Pleskâ„¢ default page

If you see this page it means:

1) hosting for this domain is not configured
or
2) there's no such domain registered in Plesk.

For more information please contact Administrator.
"

All the DNS entries seem to be fine on plesk, a DNS query returns correct results too, any ideas how I can fix this?

I've tried /etc/init.d/psa restart and restarting apache seperately too, still doesnt work.

(btw im a bit of a linux n00b so pls b specific)

I am having a similar problem under Fedora Core 4. I haven't found a solution. If I find one, I will post it.

I have found a solution to my problem! I don't know if it is possible to recreate the solution on another system, however.

What I had to do was to move (not copy) the content out of the httpdocs directory to a temp directory, then copy (not move) the data back, change the permissions to match the ftp login account for that particular domain, then it all worked for me.

Here is the commands I used to get it to work:

mkdir /root/<domain>
mv /var/www/vhosts/<domain>/httpdocs/* /root/<domain>/
cp -r /root/<domain>/* /var/www/vhosts/<domain>/httpdocs/
rm -rf /root/<domain>
