hi i am facing a major problem. i am using a drupal version 5.5 based website on plesk 8.1, the thing is that drupal's administer section and my webhosting controlpanel shares the same url i.e.
http://technody.com/admin , so when i try to access my drupal's administer section i land to plesk's controlpanel. is there any way i can change the url of eiter.

Enable path module. Create a url alias for any page that conflicts.

Alternatively, disable clean URL's.

i created the url alias but still it is creating the same problem. is there any other way i could change the entire admin path.

Version: 5.5 » 5.6

I'm seeing this issue as well. Clean URL's is a must have. Any clues/progress on this?

Use a host that does not eat admin/ . Or dont use clean URL.

Move either Plesk or Drupal to a sub-directory. Having multiple web applications share the same folder namespace is a horrible idea anyway.

Actually we discovered the issue and it's not a Drupal problem at all. I figure I'd post a solution here in case others run into this problem. It turns out the Plesk install of Tomcat has a configuration entry that automatically creates an Apache alias for all domains running the admin directory. Since we don't need it we went and disabled that entry in the corresponding mod_jk.conf file. Hope that helps somebody!
