Vhost vs Site Location

Whenever I create a site the site gets created in a different location than what's defined in the vhost file for example: http://bugtracker.ispconfig.org/index.php?do=details&task_id=3305

My recent system is set up like so, or it might have defaulted back after a system restart to:

vhost /etc/nginx/sites-available/domainName.com.vhost points to:
/var/www/domainName.com/web

I agree that's how it should be, but the actual site is being stored at:
/var/www/clients/client#/web#

If I navigate to /var/www/domainName.com/
the only thing in there is a symlink to web# which points to the above:
/var/www/clients/client#/web#/web

There is no www folder in the /var/www/domainName.com

This is the setup I went with, hopefully I did everything, I'm sure I skipped a few optional steps:

Interesting, I see that for the new site I created, but it seems that if you create a site by the same name as the server's default name it will not be a symlink?

I have two servers, this is the second one (cloned from the first), I ended up deleting bolstats.tk from it.

It has a broken symlink in it

Here's the original, bolstats still exists on it.


So how exactly is this set up to work when you create a site by the same name as the server name? I can't remember the structure before I created the site. But it sounds like I can just create a symlink and that should fix the issue.

Thanks for letting me know how it is supposed to be set up, this definitely helps because I have two conflicting things and didn't know which was the correct way.
