    Hi, I have a working WP Installation on a Win Server 2012 with Plesk 12 and IIS. Plesk provides a tool to move the virtual hosts in IIS to a new physical directory (in my case from somwhere in C: to somewhere in D:). Done this, WP produces an internal server error. Other content (also with PHP) on the same Server works fine after the move. Any hint where in WP the physical path has to be changed? Note, the structure in httdocs has not changed.

    As far as I know, server physical path is not in the WordPress equation at all. Everything is relative to the virtual host root. Then again most WordPress is on linux and your windows package might be different

    The “Site Address (URL)” setting is the address you want people to type in their browser to reach your WordPress blog.

    The “WordPress Address (URL)” setting is the address where your WordPress core files reside.

    From the reference:
