Simple question I guess, and I could just try it. But if it didn't work I'd have to do it all over again.

I'm working on a clean install, and going to migrate to a different box.

In the past I've installed to C: or D: \Program Files\Abyss Web Server/htdocs...

Will things still function if I install to D:\Web Server\ ?

Thanks.

Mine is in d:\Abyss Web Server 80\ (80 was to show what port it was on when I had abyss X1 but never bothered to change it)

and my websites are in d:\public_html\website_name

Just out of curiosity (and this may be off topic) -

But how do you configure abyss to store your sites out of the abyss root?

Click on "General" on the VHOST you are configuring then its right there.

Does this also mean I could do this...

D:\web server
D:\Intranet
D:\Extranet

Would that also be a more secure way of differentiating the two?

Yes you could do this but you might wan tto put intranet and extranet into a folder called www, websites or public_html so you don't clutter up the root of the partition.

Its no more secure than being in the normal htdocs folder. Its simply easier in terms of where you want to put it if it is more convenient to you.
