Domain variable in default virtual host templates (Plesk 11.5)

ThomasR · Oct 28, 2013

Hi,

We are using our own default virtual host template (aka skeleton). Before 11.5 there was no problem of using the "@domain_name@" variable in these files. In Plesk 11.5, it looks like this variable is replaced only once:

HTML:

<html>
  <head>
    <title>Welcome at @domain_name@</title>
  </head>

  <body>
    <p>This is the default home page for @domain_name@.</p>
  </body>
</html>

is replaced by

HTML:

<html>
  <head>
    <title>Welcome at mydomain.com</title>
  </head>

  <body>
    <p>This is the default home page for @domain_name@.</p>
  </body>
</html>

There was an issue for this which should be fixed by MU 10 (http://kb.parallels.com/en/116636):

[-] Administrators could not include domain names in the files of the default virtual host template using the @domain_name@ variable. (140092)

However this variable is only replaced at its first occurrence. Someone who can confirm this is a bug? Can this be fixed in the next MU?

I can confirm that the issue looks to be present. Though I think your example is not entirely correct - don't you have something like email address on your page?

What's your MU version?

It's just an example to clarify the problem indeed.

We are using the latest one (11.5.30 Update #20)

The thing is, devs/qa will try out your example and it will work perfectly. Great, problem closed! The power of correct/incorrect "steps to reproduce".

Check for yourself that example you gave actually works

Ok, didn't know this email address was causing the problem. Following example fails:

HTML:

<html>
  <head>
    <title>Welcome at @domain_name@</title>
    <meta name="author" content="admin@server.tld" />
  </head>

  <body>
    <p>This is the default home page for @domain_name@.</p>
  </body>
</html>

returns:

HTML:

<html>
  <head>
    <title>Welcome at mydomain.com</title>
    <meta name="author" content="admin@server.tld" />
  </head>

  <body>
    <p>This is the default home page for @domain_name@.</p>
  </body>
</html>

instead of

HTML:

<html>
  <head>
    <title>Welcome at mydomain.com</title>
    <meta name="author" content="admin@server.tld" />
  </head>

  <body>
    <p>This is the default home page for mydomain.com.</p>
  </body>
</html>
