Changing Plesk Sitebuilder Database or Sites Storage Location

Should you need to change your Plesk Sitebuilder database connection string or the location where working copies of your customers' sites should be stored, you can do so with the sbconfigure utility (located in the <path_to_Sitebuilder>\Utils folder).

The sbconfigure utility command line syntax is as follows:

sbconfigure <command> <local options>

The list of possible commands and local options is given below. Use the sbconfigure /? command to view this list in the console window.

Commands:

• changedb - used to change your Plesk Sitebuilder database connection string
• changesitesrep - used to change the location where working copies of your customers' sites should be stored

Local options:

• --sites-path - used to specify the path to a new sites storage location

  Note: Make sure that the NETWORK SERVICE and the IUSR_computername accounts have Full Control permissions to this path.

• --db-host - used to specify the database server hostname
• --db-name - used to specify the database name
• --db-user - used to specify the user name for connecting to the database server
• --db-pswd - used to specify the password for connecting to the database server
• --win-auth - allows to use your current Microsoft Windows user name and password to connect to the database
• --con-timeout - used to specify the number of seconds to wait before a connection to the database times out
