Hi
I have a working Drupal 4.7 site at www.mydomain.com (no, I can't move to 5.x yet) and now I want to add a second site at subdomain.mydomain.com. I have set up the required directories as follows:
public_html/ public_html/default (settings.php for the the main site) public_html/sites public_html/sites/subdomain.mydomain.com (settings.php for the new site) public_html/sites/subdomain.mydomain.com/files public_html/sites/subdomain.mydomain.com/modules public_html/sites/subdomain.mydomain.com/themes
As I'm using cPanel, I have followed the instructions at http:// drupal.org/node/125539#comment-208916, so the symbolic link for is created and seems to be pointing to the root.
However, when I point my browser to subdomain.mydomain.com for installing, I only get a 500 Internal Server Error.
Can somebody tell me what am I doing wrong?
Thank you in advance

In node/125539#comment-208916, - Drupal was installed in "public_html/drupal5" - subdomain.domain.com was set up to point to "public_html/subdomain", and - the symlinks were set up accordingly (ln -s ./drupal5 ./subdomain).
In your case, - Drupal seems to be in public_html. - Where is subdomain.domain.com pointing, and - what symlink did you use?
However, when I point my browser to subdomain.mydomain.com for installing, I only get a 500 Internal Server Error.

Thanks for your reply.
You're right, I forgot to mention that:
- Drupal is installed in public_html - subdomain is setup (via cPanel) to public_html/subdomain (but the directory has been deleted, according to the instructions) - the symlink is ln -s public_html subdomain (and it works, as checked via the ftp)
Any suggestions?

If you mean you used "public_html" literally, it is not right.
From inside public_html, the command should be "ln -s . subdomain"
(the dot means "here"). If this is the case, delete the symlink and create it again.

Hi
I have a working Drupal 4.7 site at www.mydomain.com (no, I can't move to 5.x yet) and now I want to add a second site at subdomain.mydomain.com. I have set up the required directories as follows:
public_html/ public_html/default (settings.php for the the main site)
Uhm, that should be public_html/sites/default/settings.php
public_html/sites public_html/sites/subdomain.mydomain.com (settings.php for the new site)
Yes, that is correct. Are you using the same DB? Did you prefix the tables with subdomain_?
public_html/sites/subdomain.mydomain.com/files
You will need to modify your files setting in the administration GUI.
public_html/sites/subdomain.mydomain.com/modules public_html/sites/subdomain.mydomain.com/themes
These two are only needed if you plan to use modules and/or themes that are not present in the default site.
As I'm using cPanel, I have followed the instructions at http:// drupal.org/node/125539#comment-208916, so the symbolic link for is created and seems to be pointing to the root.
I don't know about this, I don't use cPanel.
However, when I point my browser to subdomain.mydomain.com for installing, I only get a 500 Internal Server Error.
Usually a result of something not configured correctly. You must execute the install.php script manually for the subdomain; i.e. http://subdomain.mydomain.com/install.php.
Can somebody tell me what am I doing wrong?
Be sure to check your log and system files. For debugging, you might want to add ``php_value display_errors On'' to your .htaccess file.
