I am trying to create a new domain which runs on SilverStripe 3.0. I am unable to figure out the issue. If I upload a custom php page then it runs fine, but my website is not working. It shows blank page but shows the favico.
If I try to open up www.mydomain.com/admin/
, I get the error
Page Not Found
The requested URL /admin/pages was not found on this server.
Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
This is not a Silverstripe error page. Here is my php info Info
Please let me know if I am missing something or there is any way to figure out the issue.

It does sound like your .htaccess is not being respected. Does Plesk allow overrides for .htaccess in the local directory?
At an apache level we would have something like this stanza to ensure the the .htaccess of the project was respected;
AllowOverride All
If your .htaccess is being processed, make sure that your host has mod_rewrite enabled as that is required to access to pretty URLS.
Try http://www.yourdomain.com/index.php/admin
If that works then it is because your rewrites are not working. This can be because .htaccess isn’t configured properly, or because .htaccess is not used at all (in which case you need to edit your server config).
Last I used Plesk it always used apache. If that is different now and you’re using nginx as more than a forward proxy, then you will need to set up the redirects for your site manually.
