Here it goes:
In order to change default document root for a domain hosted in a plesk control panel we need to create vhost.conf file in the directory in which http.include for the domain resides. Directly changing the document root entry in httpd.include causes the modification to be overwritten with default entry since plesk overwrites entries in configuration files with database entries
Entries to be put in the vhost.conf follows
DocumentRoot /var/www/vhosts/domain.com/httpdocs/Symfony/web <Directory /var/www/vhosts/domain.com/httpdocs/Symfony/web> AllowOverride all Order allow,deny Allow from all </Directory>
Run the websrvmng just to make sure that plesk will make use of vhost.conf for document root instead of httpd.include
websrvmng -u --vhost=domain.com
Next install SQLite3
$ yum install php53-pdo
This might not be neded soon, with Symfony 2.1
Add date.timezone = America/Chicago to etc/php.ini
