[ellegua220]

i need to create or access a directory called /usr/local to install a software package. how do I do this? I dont see it in the list under the domain that i created on this virtual dedicated server...

From what I understand you can't create a software installation from Plesk.

You need to login into the server using SSH and switch to root. Then you can access /usr/local/ directly.

Plesk should not be running as root so you won't be able to put anything in this directory from the control panel.
