[support] Double site

[Shyamala Rajaram]

We have sites running as multisites, it works just fine!

 

For multisite on windows:

http://drupal.org/node/32715

 

Read 'settings.php', in the sites/default folder, to understand how drupal
searches it's folder to locate the file storing a particular domain's
settings.php.

 

Drupal by default reads the settings.php file in the default folder. You can
configure the main portal settings in the default directory. The subdomains
a.com and b.com can be configured by creating two new folders under the
sites directory  called yourdomain.a.com and yourdomain.b.com. Each of these
folders should have it's own settings.php. In the settings.php of each site
you have to name the database to be used. 

 

If you want some settings to be shared between the sites you could go in for
a shared database configuration.

 

refer: http://drupal.org/node/147828 for 

Multi-Site, Single Codebase, Shared Database, Shared Sign-on 5.x

Subject: [support] Double site

Hi
I ve read a bit about multi site installation, but still i am not so
sure about how to go:
I ll have basically 2 "twin sites" each referring to a different
island in the same archipelago, the structure both on content
management and on the theme graphic will be the same but all content
will be different and i d like to have the 2 sites on 2 different
databases.
first site:       www.mysite.com/islandx
second site: www.mysite.com/islandy
of course at www.mysite.com there will be an island chooser
considering i ll have to change details on the future i d like to have
the 2 sites using the same theme and the same module folder although i
think i need 2 different installations (to get the 2 contents on 2
different databases)
It s clear to me how to have a site using different themes but not
really the other way round..
Any hint is welcome
Simone
