Change my root directory to something else

[MichealMob]

Hi,

My default web directory is:
/home/admin/domains/example.com/public_html but I want to change it to something else, for example:
/home/admin/domains/example.com/public_html/myproject/web

Please help
thanks,

Micheal

If yours is the only site on the server, you can probably do this by changing the proper template for creating your domain's httpd.conf file. But you'd have to change the template, and not the file itself, or it would get changed back.

If your is NOT the only site on the server and you want to do this for your site only, you can probably still do it by changing the template; a good knowledge of httpd.conf would be required. You'd need conditional statements in the right httpd.conf template.

You could probably do it from a .htaccess file in the user's root or public_html folder.

This answer is quite late - but it is a working answer in case somebody else has this question.
