Re: MultiSite Module Support Thread

problems with resolving of subdomains in multisite module - (rewrite, .htaccess):

this is for all those who have problems with subdomain-resolving:

I also had some problems with this and found out:

on some servers there seem to exist this problem -- on other servers subdomains resolve without any problems:

for examle: on servage.net or hoststar.ch subdomains resolve fine:

you just have to create the subdomains you need (ex: subdomain.yahoo.com) and after that you have to delete the subdomain folder (subdomain) in your main directory.

hope this helps anybody!! I needed some time to find this out..

Re: MultiSite Module Support Thread

Hi, I have a problem, After installing this module I'm now getting the error that "the domain https://www.imua-aloha.com does not exist." This is the parent domain for a number of masked domains that I have forwarding to this location. it is also the location of my zencart. Whats wrong? I know that my domain exists, but when I try to go to the cataloge via the admin, or to my masks (eg. https://www.eatideal.com), i get this exact same message.:blink:

Re: MultiSite Module Support Thread

I would like help to install the MultiSite Module correctly and get it working properly for a new website.

I'm not getting any replies for my post in "Commercial Help Wanted", so I figured I'd ask here also. Please see that post here:
http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showthread.php?t=87702

Thank you.

Re: MultiSite Module Support Thread

ok. So what I want to know is.
Is there anyone that can give a step by step instruction
on how to take

Web Site 1 - I will say this would be the site I am starting my Multi Site with.
It will be a Copy of my most populated website.

Then I want to take Web Site # 2
I am assuming I would take portions of my sql.
I want to add all of my products with their Categories and Attributes to be
merged with Web Site 1.
(Also taking over the Customers might be a good idea. I think there would be a problem taking over the orders however... There would be duplicate order id's.

Anyway. How much of this could I get accomplished?

Re: MultiSite Module Support Thread

Hi there, so inlight of this: > TheDruid:

Hi, I have a problem, After installing this module I'm now getting the error that "the domain https://www.imua-aloha.com does not exist.":shocking:
After chatting it up with my hosing and domain people they tell me that the domain does exist, and that the problem is in relation to the zencart index.php file which is supposedly redirecting the browser to that error page which is apparently a zencart file. However, when I check the index.php file it i dont see any blatant connection to this error page, (not that i have any real coding experience, so perhaps i just dont know what to look for), and i also do not know what file contains the error page. I certainly dont have any idea as to what I should do next,:dontgetit With out your help I fear that I may be doomed to rejoin ratrace:(, "your my only hope." :wink:

Read through the previous pages! As the answers are there!

Yes there are alot of pages, but you will learn alot more about how this modules works by reading the previous post, rather than reiterating the same as someone else!

Re: MultiSite Module Support Thread

Hi, Thank you for the tip, I had read most of the forum, but I guess I must have missed that part. Unfortunately it doesn't seem to have worked. See I had already created the file, and placed the following code into it (edited with the appropriate name):
"<?php $template_dir = "site1"; define('SITE_NAME','site1'); ?>"

I did notice just now that the example config file has a few more lines of code which were not mentioned in the multi-site instructions http://www.medea.co.uk/dev/multisite_instructions_0.4.html T
he code in the example is:
"<?php define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', '/'); define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', '/'); $template_dir = "example"; define('SITE_NAME','example'); ?>

However after adding in these other lines I'm still getting the same "does not exist"message. Is there more to a config file than this? what am I missing? do i have to do something to the
"define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', '/');
define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', '/');"
lines?

Re: MultiSite Module Support Thread

You should need to alter those defines. What is the name of your config file that contains your defines? And have you done the thing with the template system, rename each according to your site names.

Re: MultiSite Module Support Thread

the config file is called www.eatideal.com_config.php
and if it helps,
The template file is called: EatIdeal_com

and the contents of the config file are: <?php define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', '/'); define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', '/'); $template_dir = "EatIdeal_com"; define('SITE_NAME','EatIdeal.com'); ?>

streetglow,
define('DIR_WS_CATALOG','/retailer/');
define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG','/retailer/');
Gerome.

Re: MultiSite Module Support Thread

I was trying to see if this would help: > Gerome:

As for multi domains issues, I use .htaccess in order to resolve this problem because I think it makes things cleaner.

Add the the beginning of your htacess:

This is what is used for bigdepot.co.uk:
http://ww.bigdepot.co.uk/scratchless-cd-c-3377.html
http://bigdepot.co.uk/scratchless-cd-c-3377.html
http://anything.bigdepot.co.uk/scratchless-cd-c-3377.html
http://www.bigdepot.com/scratchless-cd-c-3377.html
All are redirected to that link, with a similar .htaccess code.
http://www.bigdepot.co.uk/scratchless-cd-c-3377.html

For these who don't want to bother with it, there is other this way:
into the site1.com_config.php:

includes('includes/config_sites/www.site1.com_config.php');

But I didn't really understand the finer point on how to tailor it to my site.

Re: MultiSite Module Support Thread

So, I realized that because I'm on shared hosting this might be the problem, but when I tried to implement it there were no noticeable changes> Gerome:

SSL can be an issue, especially if you use the same IP for all your domain because SSL need an unique IP for each domains. It means that your server setting has to even more complicated...

Another solution can be to use common DNS for all the SLLs and to use a different subfolder in order to change them.

As for the MultiSite configuration, it requires a bit of extra code.

Just take the case of the use of https://www.secure-payment.com as DNS ...

includes/config_sites/www.secure-payment.com_config.php has to contain:

<?php $location = explode('/',$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']); switch($location[1]) { case 'site1': include('includes/config_sites/www.site1.com_config.php'); break; case 'site2': include('includes/config_sites/www.site2.com_config.php'); break; case 'site3': include('includes/config_sites/www.site3.com_config.php'); break; } unset($location); ?>
> 
> Then in the config files of each site, you have to write:
> ```
define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG','/site1/');
define('HTTPS_SERVER', "https://www.secure-payment.com");

Code to add in the beginning of .htaccess:

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.secure-payment.com$
RewriteRule ^site1/(.*)$ /zencart_folder/$1 [L]

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.secure-payment.com$
RewriteRule ^site2/(.*)$ /zencart_folder/$1 [L]

> 
> This will make the SLL of all your sites like:
> <https://www.secure-payment.com/site1/>
> <https://www.secure-payment.com/site2/>

I used one of my two DNSs but I still dont even know if this is the problem. Any clues?

Re: MultiSite Module Support Thread

OK, Its official. I have read this entire thread from start to finish, and I didn't do any scanning this time. I tried everything that seemed like it might have something to do with it, some of it was a little beyond my current understanding:huh:, but basically nothing changed my results.:yuck: I simply cant dial into my catalog using any domain or directory combo, Period. :frusty::lamo::no::cry:

Re: MultiSite Module Support Thread

Hi all you multisiters!

I am trying to set my new site with the "Multisite" module, was going quite well until I hit Step 4, headed "Create the config files of your sites".
The very first instruction under Step 4 says to add a line of text to "includes/configure.php". Ehen I do this I get a 'fatal error or timed out...' and wont save the line of text.
Now I presume I'm using the right configure.php file (mystore/includes/configure.php)?
What am I doing wrong at this point, as I cant get past this step?

Would appreciate help if possible.

Dave

Re: MultiSite Module Support Thread

On step 4 where exactly am I supposed to upload www.site1.com_config.php to? the site1.com html folder or a folder on the main sites area?

Thanks
