Hi, in order to install Contao, I want to set a different DocumentRoot for one website. So I went to ISPC/Sites/Options and entered in "Apache Directives" the line Code: DocumentRoot "/var/www/clients/client1/web8/web/" I restarted httpd, but the Contao-Manager still says: Code: The Contao Manager could not create the directory "/var/www/clients/client1/web8/contao-manager" I checked in ISP/sites/Domain, there it says: Code: Document Root: /var/www/clients/client1/web8 I checked in /etc/httpd/conf/sites-enabled/domain.vhost, there it says: Code: DocumentRoot "/var/www/clients/client1/web8/web/" Obviously, the apache directive doesn't have an impact, even though it is reflected in the conf-file. What did I miss?
Contao tries to create a folder in a directory where it is not allowed to create a folder, that's why this fails. The 'web' directory is already the webroot directory, so no need to set it again via DocumentRoot directive. If a CMS persists on creating its own directory below the document root, then you must set the docroot to a folder that inside the web dir. Example: DocumentRoot "/var/www/clients/client1/web8/web/contao/" so that contao then can create its folder 'contao-manager' as /var/www/clients/client1/web8/web/contao-manager
