multisite

I've used Drupal for 2 weeks. I read many articles about multisite but there is no article can make me satisfied.

I want to have a system:
- Multisite: a main site (mainsite.com) and many subsites (sub1.mainsite.com, sub2.mainsite.com, ...)
- All sites use one core Drupal
- Single sign on, user can sign in every sites to use resources (i'm want to use LDAP to manage users)
- Shared vocabulary and terms
- There are some contents appears all sites (but they can be only posted once)
- Using one or more database
- user's permission is different from sites

Hi,

Does anyone have any knowledge/experience of using the multisite module. I am looking to create my second drupal site and am considering using the multisite module. Is this a good idea? All thoughts welcome.

thks,
nolan.

Love keeping complex Drupal installations lean, mean, and running smoothly? I want to meet you.

One thing I can't get my head around is how to set up the folder structure on my local development environment, then on a live host (eg sandbox stuff, site testing, demos etc).

Let's imagine on my local machine, with all the right virtual hosts set up as http://site1, http://site2, http://site3 etc, my drupal/sites folder would contain: drupal/sites/all, drupal/sites/default, drupal/sites/site1, drupal/sites/site2, drupal/sites/site3...

I recently experimented with the Aegir project. It didn't seem to work very well for us, though to be fair it may be due to our nonstandard server setup (FreeBSD instead of Linux; Lighttpd instead of Apache) than any fault with Aegir.

Anyway, installing Aegir meant I had to install Drush. I've been meaning to try Drush one of these days, but it never came about. Of course, now that I have, I'm wishing I would have tried it a long time ago!

Hi there,

I'm attempting my first multi-site, single codebase drupal 6 installation using prefixed tables to share common data.

Background

Looking from the outside, I think the best way to explain my reasoning for this configuration is going to be module management, and to ease the development of the core facilities the site(s) will offer.

I'm attempting to split the rather large modules apart so I end up with subdomains offering the features the users require, here is the basic layout.

Hi,

Can anyone let me know if it is possible to index and search multiple Drupal and non-drupal websites using the ApacheSolr module?

If not please let me know of any other way that this could be achieved.

Thanks

Hi,

I have a multisite set-up, using the LDAP module for authenticating users (which means that all my users can log in to all sites). What I would like to happen is that each site inherits an "Editor" role when set up, with my list of standardised permissions. I can update the permissions in one place & this will affect the "Editor" role on each site.

What I don't want to happen is for a User to keep this role across sites - If you are in the Editor role in Subsite1, you shouldn't have the role in Subsite2, unless it is subsequently assigned to you.

Hello,
I have been trying to configure a drupal multisite on Mediatemples GridService. I've followed and read every doc I could find on the subject, and still no success.

I've done a basic drupal install. Then added a second site into the sites directory. I then tried to sym link this second domain to the drupal install using this in ssh:
ln -s ~/home/12345/domains/dev.example.com/html/sites/domain2.com html

I have two domains I would like hosted off one install of drupal, domain1.com, domain2.com hosted on godaddy.com
I have installed drupal and have the first site up, however when trying to install the second site, domain2.com, I get a browser error saying "this page has a redirect loop, "The webpage at http://site.com/install.php has resulted in too many redirects".
I seem to get this error each timeI try to add a second domain.
Here are the steps I took
1.create new directory in 'sites' called 'domain2.com'
2.moved 'default.settings.php' into the folder and renamed it appropriately.
