Joomla on Plesk

[ozzyk]

I'm trying to understand a simple problem which I'm fighting with for 2 days.

I want to develop my website directly using joomla files. Hosting company support Plesk.
I managed to create locale file www.web-site.com/joomla and I test it.
But I couldn't find out how can I work directly on www.web-site. I transfered the joomla files under httpdocs. But then?
Still i don't see joomla starting page there.

Most probably it's silly question but I'm blind. Please help me

Thanks.

Really not sure how you mean, but for me it just works. Instead of putting the joomla installation in a subdirectory, put it in httpdocs.

On CentOS 5 put all files and dirs form the Joomla directory inside: /var/www/vhosts/web-site.com/httpdocs/

Also make sure php is turned on for web-site.com.

I install Joomla last version via Plesk I got a url: http://www.website.com/joomla
And when I click that I see joomla admin page. But this is local, right?

Apart from that I coppied the joomla files under httpdocs via FTP.
when I click the website url, I want to see that joomla admin page like the local one??

Am I confused ?

----
After I wrote this mail, I uninstall joomla files from plesk and install them again under the direct website.
Now it works.

Thanks a lot for your reply.

No problem! Glad you got it working!

I initially thought you installed it from the Joomla installation file, not from the Plesk interface. Personally I always prefer the manual way with the Joomla installation file.
