Does Plesk support error documents on a vhost side or is it only a server wide thingy?

vhost side thingy

[Dylan]

Er... sorry, I did figure it out eventually a couple of days ago... forgot all about this post... heehee...

Changing that one line has opened up alot, and I mean alot, of additional features for my clients...

I recommend everybody does the same thing... your clients will love you for it...

Which line? How can I set error documents for vhosts?

[Dylan]

cd /usr/local/plesk/apache/conf
pico httpsd.conf.def

On line 162 there is a section that looks like this:

<Directory "/usr/local/plesk/apache/vhosts">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride AuthConfig Limit Indexes Options
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>

Change line 164 to:

AllowOverride All

So it should look like this:

<Directory "/usr/local/plesk/apache/vhosts">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>


While you at it, so that cgi can work from anywhere, not just the cgi-bin directory, change line 291:

#AddHandler cgi-script .cgi

to

AddHandler cgi-script .cgi


Then save and run, /usr/local/plesk/admin/utils/my_apci_rst

Your client can do so much once you've made these changes they'll praise you for it, ie. custom MIME types (MP3s, movies), CGI
scripting in almost any language (the user just needs to install the
correct interpreter), more flexible password protection, they can install fly (if you don't want it public on your server)... the list
goes on, and on and on ... everything configurable by the user.
