problems installing pier/apache2

Hi,

I am having troubles installing Pier with Apache2 on a virtual host
running Debian 6.

On this server, there is a Plesk running. When I go explicitly on port
www.example.com:8081, the site appears. However, when I go on
www.example.com I get the default webpage of Plesk. How can I disable
this Plesk default webpage and let apache do its job?

I have the following apache config that is properly placed in
sites-available and linked from sites-enabled (there is no other link
in sites-enabled):
<VirtualHost *:80>
  # set serer name
  ProxyPreserveHost On
  ServerName www.example.com

  # connfigure static file serving
  DocumentRoot /srv/web
  <Directory /srv/web>
    Order deny,allow
    Allow from all
  </Directory>

  # rewrite incoming requests
  RewriteEngine On
  RewriteRule ^/pier(.*)$ http://www.example.com$1 [redirect,last]
  RewriteRule ^/files/(.*)$ http://localhost:8081/files/$1 [proxy,last]
  RewriteCond /srv/web/%{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
  RewriteRule ^/(.*)$ http://localhost:8081/pier/$1 [proxy,last]
</VirtualHost>



Cheers,
Doru

This rewrite condition makes sure that any existing file is tried before
Going on to that rule:
>  RewriteRule ^/(.*)$ http://localhost:8081/pier/$1 [proxy,last]
> </VirtualHost>

Long sotry short, if /srv/web contains an index.html, it will be served,
and your proxy rule won't be tried.
Try removing the index.html ;)
