Hi, I wanted to ask about creating a site with ISPConfig. That is when I create a site I create folders in www. A web folder is the folder where the file is index.html But when you step away broswer at the site I created apprare all folders contained within the web folder, but not the index.html file. Example: step away broswer to this address: 100.00.000.000/sito.it see this: [DIR] Parent Directory - [DIR] cgi-bin/ 15-Sep-2010 00:07 - [DIR] log/ 15-Sep-2010 00:07 - [DIR] ssl/ 15-Sep-2010 00:07 - [DIR] tmp/ 15-Sep-2010 00:07 - [DIR] web/ 15-Sep-2010 00:07 - So to see the site I write like this: 100.00.000.000/sito.it/web where 100.00.000.000 (should be my hypothetical ip) I hope I have been clear enough. Thanks
Website paths in ISPConfig are like this: /var/www/clients/client5/web3/web The path never contains an IP address. For easier navigation, ISPConfig creates also a symlink with the domain name of a website in var/www.
Thanks for your answer, I'll explain I created a site called prova.it. Now I go to this address containing my ip address with the site: http://myipaddress/prova.it and I always see the same screen
You have to access the website by domain name and not IP address. So to access the website prova.it, open a webbrowser and enter: http://prova.it into the address field.
I created a hypothetical domain, I'm trying to see if everything works properly, before they enter a domain above. To reach this folder by IP address.
Thanks for your help, but I still can not, I'll explain what I did following the guidance that I have indicated: (Forgive me if I say something stupid, but then again I'm new to this thing) I created a site called www.prova1.it in ISPConfig. I went in ISPConfig DNS section Then add New DNS Zone (SOA) and I added Zone (SOA) prova1.it, then I entered NS ns1.prova1.it, then went into the TAB "Records" and I added the "A" as the hostname "www. prova1.it "then I entered my ip address of the server I checked on active and I have saved. Finally I added this line in / etc / hosts 178.79.142.187 www.prova1.it Then I combed apache, but nothing. What's wrong? Thanks
1) Create the website with the domain prova1.it and not www.prova1.it and select auto subdomain www in the website settings. 2) You dont need the dns record. 3) You have to edit the hosts file on your workstation as described in the FAQ and not the server. A hosts file is available on all common operating systems (windows, MAC and Linux).
