OpenPanel change the document root for an addon domain?

How to change the document root for an addon domain?

I have a VPS hosting several websites. I only want to change the document root for one of them, which is actually using the symfony 2, and points to the typical public_html folder. I want to change it in order to point to the the public_html/web/ folder instead.

Seems people is using their hosting control panel software to do so like Cpanel. unfortunately I have openpanel (http://www.openpanel.com/) and the options/capabilities of this latest are more limited. There is a way do so this even manually?

Solution

  • I've figured out that openpanel does not provide that posibility.

    So I had to do it manually.

    in the following folder:

    /etc/apache2/openpanel.d

    your domain (or subdomain -> we will take sub.domain.com as example) will have a specific config file:

    sub.domain.com.conf

    open it

    <VirtualHost *:80>
   DocumentRoot       /home/user/sites/sub.domain.com/public_html/
   ServerName         sub.domain.com
   <Directory /home/user/sites/sub.domain.com/public_html/>
   AllowOverride      All
   Allow from all
   </Directory>
   Include /etc/apache2/openpanel.d//sub.domain.com.inc/[^.#]*
   Include /etc/apache2/openpanel.d//global.inc
</VirtualHost>

    change it to:

    <VirtualHost *:80>
   DocumentRoot       /home/user/sites/sub.domain.com/public_html/web/
   ServerName         sub.domain.com
   <Directory /home/user/sites/sub.domain.com/public_html/web>
   AllowOverride      All
   Allow from all
   </Directory>
   Include /etc/apache2/openpanel.d//sub.domain.com.inc/[^.#]*
   Include /etc/apache2/openpanel.d//global.inc
</VirtualHost>

    Note that in the line I've added "/web/" in the line 2 and "/web" in the line 4
