Hi,
I've been working happily on a multisite installation, and, half way through development, I realised the domain I was using was the wrong one, so I renamed my /sites/{site-name} to the correct domain name (something which I now realise I shouldn't have done!). I've now renamed the relevant folder and have the correct domain name as a symlink to the existing file. However, since I've done this, the homepage defaults to the homepage of the default site. Any ideas?

If you haven't created tons of content, I'd suggest reverting back to the original name, then installing a new site with the correct domain name and transfer over the content. It's often faster that chasing done those links in the DB.
If you have a lot of content you'll still need to revert to the original name, then export the DB it as if you were going to move the site. Create the new site and import the DB. It sounds like more work, but you won't end up with unexpected surprises.

Hi folks, thanks for the replies.
After posting this, I tried a couple of other things without success. However, looking at the source of the homepage (where I was having probs), I noticed it was being cached by the Boost module (which is not enabled on the site I'm working on as it's still in development). I activated Boost, cleared the Boost cache and now the homepage works hunky dory! I guess the caches must've got mixed up somehow.
