Hello!
I have been handed this account in digitalocean to work on 2 websites.
The two websites are under one droplet. I have been able to see the files (in Filezilla) to work on the first website but I can’t seem to find or see any files in filezilla that are for the 2nd website.
Can someone help me with this problem?
The first website is located in /var/www/(website1name) so I tried looking for /var/www/(website2name) but there was no such thing.
How can I see and access the files so I can work on the 2nd website?
Thank you in advance!

Hi @jmcpa,
I’ll recommend to check directly on your Droplet rather using SSH. Once you SSH to your droplet, check what Web Service you are using like so
netstat -tulpen | grep 80
It’s either Nginx or Apache. Either way, the configuration files of your website will be somewhere in the following :
/etc/nginx/conf.d/
or
/etc/apache2/sites-available/
Either way, cd to that folder and do a cat on the file with your website.
cat website2name.conf
There you’ll see a DocumentRoot folder. That is your path to your website.
Regards, KDSys
