FTP access to web files in ISPConfig

[Rocky]

I've set up Debian Sarge 3.1(Perfect Setup) with ISPConfig successfully. However, I'm wondering if there is anyway to get FTP access to the web files for the site I've created.

I've given the user administrator and shell access rights. When I log into the FTP server, it shows me a list of folders, includnig the web folder. When i edit the index.html file and upload it to the FTP server, it still brings up the default page. Could it be that this is not the web file location? When i visit my website, it gives me http://domain.tld/apache2-default/ in the lcation bar.

Also, i noticed that when a user is created, it creates a home folder with a user website. I cannot access that site either. I tried http://www.domain.tld/user/ and http://www.domain.tld/users/user/ but it doesn't work. It gives me an Object Not Found error.

What's in /etc/apache2/sites-enabled?

It's either www.domain.tld/users/<username> or www.domain.tld/~<username>

Can you delete that symlink (it should be a symlink to a real file, not a file itself) and restart Apache?

Do you mean delete the file 000-default?

Yes, right.

Ok i've done that, now its giving me the following message when restarting apache2:

Forcing reload of web server: Apache2[Mon Nov 07 17:03:18 2005] [warn] NameVirtualHost 141.150.64.158:80 has no VirtualHosts
[Mon Nov 07 17:03:18 2005] [warn] NameVirtualHost 141.150.64.158:80 has no VirtualHosts

That are just warnings, nothing serious. Is your web site working now?

No the website doesn't work now. It gives me an error Object not found!

Do you have multiple IP addresses on your server? What I can think of is that www.domain.tld's DNS record points to 141.150.64.158, whereas you set up www.domain.tld on another IP address in ISPConfig...
