• 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.

Redirect main folder to virtual directory

Hi,

Is there a way to redirect the main folder of a domain to a virtual directory/subfolder?

My Problem is, that in my PLESK controlpanel from my provider I can only create virtual directories in the main httpdocs folder, and if I have a main ASP.NET application installed there, all the other ASP.NET applications in the subfolders read the parent's web.config, even though they are in a virtual directory, so I can't have independent ASP.NET applications.
One solution would be to install ALL applications in a virtual subdirectory, also the main application, but then I need to change the http adress of the main application eg. from www.johnshope.com to www.johnshope.com/main. I could of course store a html page in the main folder that redirects to the subfolder but that's not what I want.
Unfortunately I cannot create virtual directories outside of httpdocs with my current provider's PLESK setup.
Another solution that works is to use subdomains for the other applications, since I can configure the subdomains folders to lie outside httpdocs, but thats also not so elegant.

Is there a better solution?

Greetings,

Simon Egli
