  • 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.

Create site with physical path different from default

LCMSdev

New Pleskian
I'm running Plesk 9.5 on Windows Server 2008 R2 with IIS 7.5. I have two sites on this server configured through Plesk to the default physical path (C:\inetpub\vhosts\[domain]). I'm now trying to deploy some open-source software that requires a virtual directory configured as an application at (let's say) C:\Software\WebRoot.

I tried creating a site directly in IIS with a Physical Path of C:\Software\WebRoot, but browsing to http://localhost/SiteName still looks for the site files in C:\inetpub\vhosts\default\htdocs\SiteName. I know I could change the Virtual Hosts location, but that would (I believe) break my existing sites, which I don't want to do.

How do I go about configuring a single site to use C:\Software\Webroot instead of the default path? Thanks in advance for any advice.
 
Did you try to change vhost location with Plesk reconfigurator?
