Hello tecx20,
The solution you provided is the easy way and if you read it carefully it will work (100% sure of this);

However it all depends on what you need to do, is it to install a framework like Laravel that will have php scripts outsidee the www folder?
If yes, then you need a different approach.

1. Add the Domain the normal way, so it creates a DOMAIN_TLD folder.
   
2. Wait 5 minutes for the Daemon to Run.
   
3. Go to Admin > Module Admin (on Sentora CP).
   
4. Select Apache Config (it's the very first option).
   
5. Scroll Down to the end of the page and under the Override a Virtual Host Setting choose the website you want.
   
6. Now on the text area input: Custom Entry you need to enter the following  :
   
   Code:

   DocumentRoot "/var/sentora/hostdata/ACCOUNT/public_html/DOMAIN_TLD/www"
7. (do not forget to click Save when you are done)
   

With this way you will be able to have a different openbase_dir than your DocumentRoot, allowing you to access the files under public_html and www via your php scripts (this is NEEDED by almost all modern frameworks TGates Me.B )

thanks that works for i'm using yii framework here.
One more question where to edit php.ini without using putty

.htacces can translate paths in the easy way and do the magic, so you map / to www/.

Don't like using override for this change and think we should remove such feature from sentora panel ( once we provide SSL support).

I do agree that the overwrite might not be the best solution, however I think .htaccess is not a clean way to do it.

Source 2: My experience as a web developer.

The better solution would be to add a way to change/edit the document root for every domain, this should be standard

tecx20 you can't edit php.ini without using SSH.

Give a try at http://winscp.net/ as it lets you browse the filesystem with a GUI, also you can edit files using oyur local text editor (for example Sublime Text or NotePad++).

[tecx20]

okay then will go with winscp for now.
thanks for the fast reply
