Multisite

I have a top domain and 4 subdomains running off the same code in my Multisite setup. I'm running 6.19 Drupal core that I upgraded last weekend.

In two of these subdomains, when I go into Administer/Blocks, I get a white screen and this message:

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare block_admin_display() (previously declared in /--mysite--/modules/comment/block/block.admin.inc:12) in /--mysite--/modules/block/block.admin.inc on line 23

It is strange because the top domain and the 2 other subdomains go into Blocks OK. If it's not a Multisite problem, is a Drupal code problem?

Hi there,

I'm just wondering about this in the INSTALL.txt of provision:

the server must be reserved for
Aegir. Sharing the server with other control panels such as Cpanel, Plesk or
AlternC will very likely create problems and is not supported.

Can I run some WordPress installations on the same server (other vHosts of course)?

And I assume that wanting to have SysCP is not really wise in that case?

Thank you in advance
Bye, Transmitter

Several of my users disappear after some time. I'm use multiples site and no matter which site I or the users create account, they disappear after a while. I will be very gratefull for help with this.
Sharing database:

TL;DR:
Is there anyway to make Aegir and DA coexist happily?
After reading and meditating on it more I guess the big question is can Aegir provide an environment where different sites can share signon's and nodes?

Looking for advice. I'm using the following script and set a cron to run it every hour. It's suppose to trigger cron job of all the sites I have set up on multisite. The list consists of couple of dozen of websites. I need to know, will this cause any problem to server load, especially when the list gets longer? Thanks in advance to any kind advice!

<?php
$cronUrl = 'http://%s/cron.php';
error_reporting(E_ALL);
$sites = array();
$sites[] = 'mysite.com';
$sites[] = '1.mysite.com';
$sites[] = '2.mysite.com';
$sites[] = '3.mysite.com';
$sites[] = '4.mysite.com';
// and so on...

I am sorry if this is a repeat, but I am having trouble finding information specific to my multisite setup.

1. I am on a shared server, cpanel and shell access.
2. I have drupal in a public_html/drupal6.
3. All parked/sub domains point to this folder via symlinks, set up via shell access.

This all works great, and means that I can easily upgrade drupal by overriding this folder.

So, I have set up multi-sites on two Windows boxes just fine (root access) and am now having a red flag go up as I work through setting up Apache2 on a Linode server slice I just got. I've installed Ubuntu 8.04 LTS and am now installing apache2 with a multisite configuration (one database per site/one code for all)

Hello everyone!

I have successfully set up drupal 6.17 multisite with single sign on module 6.x-1.0-rc1 by sharing tables in a separate database:

authmap
profile_fields
profile_values
role
sessions
users

made possible by following settings.php add-ins:
<?php
$db_url = 'mysqli://user:password@localhost/drupal_site1';
$db_prefix = array(
'default' => '',
'authmap' => 'drupal_shared_tables.',
'profile_fields' => 'drupal_shared_tables.',
'profile_values' => 'drupal_shared_tables.',
'role' => 'drupal_shared_tables.',

From what I find on drupal.org, Views does not work with external databases. I have a multisite setup but do not want to share the content tables, although I do want a View on the top domain across the subdomains' content.

(I have a workaround by manually copying and pasting links to selected subdomains' content in a new content type on the top domain when I want to display a block on the top domain, but I will have to constantly maintain and update it.)
