Title: phpBB2 bind on iBays?
Post by: Guenter on October 14, 2002, 11:54:31 PM

I run multiple Virtual Domains on eSmith 5.5. It works fine. Now i will enable for each Domain his own phpBB.

I have set up phpBB2 with the installation Guide of Dan Brown.
Now I see, that each Domain can Access the Board with http:///phpBB2.

How can I fix this?

I'm replying just to check the little box for email repies. I'd very much like to know this myself.

I currently have two instances of phpBB2 on two different ibays:

http://wc.xend.net
http://ahpros.com/phpBB

They are both on the same server

Did you set them up using different databases?

After following the instructions I back tracked and created 3 different databases for 3 different ibays, then unzipped the files in each ibay. It seems to be working, but two of my domains are new and my DNS hasn't propogated yet so more testing needs to be done in a few days.

Is that basically what you did?

Thanks for the input!

I installed this one yesterday

This one 3 months ago
> > http://ahpros.com/phpBB

Was there a config file that needed to be modified?
I don't remember - it might have been all web-based, the installation.
I think the only thing you need to do before install via the web is to create a new, empty DB.

So yes, that's basically what I did.

1. I use phpMyAdmin
2. Create a new database for each installation
3. Run the install script and point it to the DB you want to use

That's about it.

Good luck
