Title: Virtual Domains
Post by: Leigh Gardiner on May 19, 2002, 01:34:59 PM

When i add a Virtual Domain, where you select Site Content from the dropdown box theres only Primary Web Site...how can u change that instead of the primary website to point to a directory inside the primary website dir (ect: instead of pointing all requests from http://site1.com to /home/e-smith/files/primary/html it loads the default page in /home/e-smith/files/primary/html/site1)

Thanks.

Create an ibay first, then when you create the virtual domain you'll be able to choose the ibay.

That's right. It's the default SME page saying you haven't yet customized your ibay.

BTW regarding your original question - have the virtual domain point to a directory inside the primary website dir: I think that's not possible.

also, yes it is possible to point it into a dir inside the primary/html dir, but u have to edit the httpd.conf manually, but once apache is restarted the httpd.conf is loaded from a template somewhere neways so i lose whatever i change...well ive gotten the ibay working now, thanks man =)

just 1 more question, where abouts is the ibay folder stored now? its not in primary or primary/html.......?

See http://www.e-smith.org/custom/ to prevent losing any changes.

Hi Leigh,

Or let your index.php redirect the user to a dir below the primary/html ...
