• 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.

How-To: create Domain or SubDomain dependent vhost.conf Files...

This is more a HOW-TO-Guide than a question.

Today I searched a lot of time for this solution - maybe this is helpfull for someone.

1. put a file "handle_domain_create_vhostconf" (or some other name) on the server and make it executeable. File-Content:
---
#!/bin/bash
mkdir "/srv/www/vhosts/$1/conf"
echo "<Directory /srv/www/vhosts/$1/httpdocs>" >> /srv/www/vhosts/$1/conf/vhost.conf
echo " php_admin_value open_basedir \"/srv/www/vhosts/$1/httpdocs:/srv/www/public:/tmp\"" >> /srv/www/vhosts/$1/conf/vhost.conf
echo "</Directory>" >> /srv/www/vhosts/$1/conf/vhost.conf
/usr/local/psa/admin/sbin/websrvmng --reconfigure-vhost --vhost-name=$1
apache2ctl -k restart
---


2. Open Plesk "Event-Manager" and select Entry for "Domain Creation"
Enter into the Command-Textarea:
---
handle_domain_create_vhostconf ${NEW_DOMAIN_NAME}
---

This will call your script on creation of a new domain an pass the name of the domain to your script. The script will write your settings to the domains new vhos.conf, call the websrvmng and restart apache - your settings will be available directly after domain-creation.

Same way for Subdomains - just do it the analogue way:
---
handle_subdomain_create_vhostconf ${NEW_DOMAIN_NAME} ${NEW_SUBDOMAIN_NAME}
---
mkdir "/srv/www/vhosts/$1/subdomains/$2/conf"
echo "<Directory /srv/www/vhosts/$1/subdomains/$2/httpdocs>" >> /srv/www/vhosts/$1/subdomains/$2/conf/vhost.conf
echo " php_admin_value open_basedir \"/srv/www/vhosts/$1/subdomains/$2/httpdocs:/srv/www/public:/tmp\"" >> /srv/www/vhosts/$1/subdomains/$2/conf/vhost.conf
echo "</Directory>" >> /srv/www/vhosts/$1/subdomains/$2/conf/vhost.conf
/usr/local/psa/admin/sbin/websrvmng --reconfigure-vhost --vhost-name=$2.$1
apache2ctl -k restart
---

Thats it
Hope this was helpfull ;-)

Torben
