  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.
  • The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    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.

Plesk 10.4.4#10 - Location of vhost.conf and vhost_ssl.conf for subdomains?

I just noticed that a (working) vhost.conf and vhost_ssl.conf are totally ignored by running httpdmng.

What is the current location for the vhost.conf and vhost_ssl.conf files for subdomains in Plesk 10.4.x, or are they gone, because of the new panel settings?

I tried both locations and none seems to be working:
/var/www/vhosts/DOMAIN.TLD/subdomains/SUBDOMAIN/conf/vhost.conf
/var/www/vhosts/SUBDOMAIN.TLD/conf/vhost.conf

After running httpdmg i checked the new generated /var/www/vhosts/SUBDOMAIN.TLD/conf/xxxxx.conf file if my settings fron the vhost.conf were inclued, without success.
 
a little late...

In topic #19
Web hosting management tools (that change php.ini, vhost.conf, etc) are now available for subdomains.
All domain-management features are available for subdomains.
System files of subdomains are located in /vhosts/<subdomain-name>.example.com/ now, just like for a regular domain.
All limitations on putting subdomains in the subdomains/ directory were eliminated.

hope that helps
 
Of course the migration tool still often leaves vhost_ssl.conf behind regardless of the source server version, so watch out for that. Some versions of 10.x also let users create a subdomain with the content served from /dev which was disallowed in 10.4 due to the use of /dev for chrooted shells; another problem you can run into during upgrades.

Not the worst problem though; my vote for that would be the fact that subdomains can't have their own cgi-bin directory outside the subdomain's documents directory anymore, i.e. a cgi-bin that's relative to the documents directory via ../httpdocs/ like you could in every version of Plesk going back six years. In 10.4, it can either be inside the subdomain's documents directory, or it will share the cgi-bin with the primary domain, making it pretty difficult to test new versions of a site when you can no longer mimic the main site's structure.
