  • 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.
  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

Question Change default Web Server's Default Page

Jelle G

New Pleskian
Hi,

I want to edit the default Web Server's Default Page.

How can I achieve that?

I found something that I need to replace the /var/www/vhosts/.skel/0/httpdocs/index.html file.
But that is not the file that is displayed by default.

I also want to change it from index.html into index.php, so that this default page is load as .php file.

I need to edit the page that is saying;

Web Server's Default Page
This page is generated by Plesk, the leading hosting automation software. You see this page because there is no Web site at this address.

You can do the following:

  • Create domains and set up Web hosting using Plesk.

This will not be overwritten by Plesk minor upgrades. I am not sure about what will happen on major updates, e.g. from 12.5 to 17.
