[support] Multiple sites with different database and differentcontents

[Shyamala Rajaram]

or 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.

Subject: [support] Multiple sites with different database and
differentcontents


Hi...

I have installed drupal 6.8 and its working fine with no problems at all.
However, now I am into a scenario where I want to host multiple sites with
different databases, different content but the same codebase.

I know i can do it by juts extracting a drupal tar file and re-installing
stuff again..But this would be my worst case situation. I want to do it
using the multiple site flexibility.

I am a newbie when it comes to setting up virtual hosts. I am using
openSUSE 11.1

thanks in advance!
Radhika
