Re: [development] multisite installation
Hey Jennifer, My apologies for the confusion, I am actually doing that. Let me try to re-explain. Under the sites folder I have: a.example.com b.example.com a.abc.com -> a.example.com b.abc.com -> b.example.com c.abc.-com -> a.example.com etc... With this configuration there's really no problem, when I visit the module listing section of a.abc.com I see the modules,themes listed under sites/ a.abc.com/modules, sites/a.abc.com/themes which is what I want. This is the correct behavior, except I need to create a symbolic link for every *.abc.com and these may number if the thousands. Alternatively, I could create one abc.com symbolic link to catch *.abc.com, inside it I can do a database lookup to know weather this should be pointing to a.example.com or b.example.com (all of these folders are inside sites of course) and conditionally change the connections string, filepath... but the problem is with the modules/themes. Drupal will look inside sites/ abc.com/modules and sites/abc.com/themes when I would actually want it to look inside sites/a.example.com/modules,themes when visiting a.abc.com and sites/b.example.com/modules,themes when visiting b.abc.com I hope this is clear enough this time. -- AA
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I would just use OS-level symbolic links: $ ln -s /var/www/drupal/sites/a.example.com /var/www/drupal/sites/a.abc.com Then there is no extra queries and almost no overhead, though you'd need to know which domains you want ahead of time.
