    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.

PHP5: Missing _SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']

Dear Community,

I've got a big poblem with PHP5 used with Plesk 8.2.0
I've tried to install a board-software (WBB3) and for the proper installation in the PHP Settings is something really important missing.

It's about the:

_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'].

When i searched my php_info.php file i could not find the settings for _SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'].

But the bord-software i would like to install needs this. I had already contact with one of the developer of the board software and he said that this setting is a must-have in order to run the board-software properly. And under Linux installations this setting is available.

Could it be, that Plesk has forgotten to implement this setting in the PHP-Features used by Plesk?

What can i do to have this setting and function available under my Plesk for Windows 8.2.0?

Thanks for your ideas and help.

Best Regards,

Thorsten
 
Try to create simple PHP file and put it to the domain folder:

<?php
phpinfo();
?>

Then open this script in browser and take a look over all settings. If you can't find 'DOCUMENT_ROOT' there, it will be very strange.

p.s. Situation, where $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] variable isn't set is only when you launch PHP in CLI mode (console mode).
