Events happening in the community are now at Drupal community events on www.drupal.org.

I hope members of this group might find this information valuable.

I've recently posted a video about using a multisite setup in Drupal. It doesn't get into every detail, but it does provide some useful information if you're running an Apache webserver.

I'd be interested to hear what members of this group might have to say about it.

Nice but a bit overloaded

Great information, not just for multi-site but tips on Apache's conf files in general.

However maybe it's just my brain's learning style, but I'd find a succinct combination of text, slides and sample files more efficient and easier to follow. Would also allows for more granular feedback/expansion/correction by the community.

Or prepare as a supplement, while you're putting the video script together. . .

Thanks!

Fantastic

This is a really good write up -- I learned a ton about some httpd.conf crazy ninja tricks.

Wow, thanks

@hansbkk: I struggle with this issue myself - the issue of getting to the "good stuff". Knowing where I was (when starting out) with Drupal, I craved all the detailed info I could get - which is my current approach. I was willing to sit through something as long as the current video. However, having advanced a bit, I now crave "just the details" and skip through the extraneous stuff.

One thing I do with technical videos myself, is scrub through them super quick (like scanning a news page) looking for things that might stand out visually. Regarding your feedback, I'll work on breaking up longer videos into smaller chunks when it seems like it would work better for that topic.

@Boris Mann: Wow, thanks for the vote of confidence. From having stood on the outside of the community for some time, a compliment from a legend means a lot! Thanks!

Hi

I am trying to create a multisite (one drupal instaltion), I want my websites http://vorlage.net.au/vorlage.com.au <-- primary - and http://vorlage.net.au/clclax.org.au-new/ <-- secondary site - to be as multisite (one drupal installation)

I followed this steps and stucke din step 7 http://drupal.org/node/125539

it says that i need to create a file multisite.php and you can access it in http://vorlage.net.au/clclax.org.au-new/multisite.php and the file contains:

<?php
symlink
( '/home/vor49288/vorlage.net.au/public_html/clclax.org.au-new/', 'jmcausing' );
?>

and I also created a subdomain jmcausing

so when i go to step 8:
i access http://vorlage.net.au/clclax.org.au-new/multisite.php and got an error http://vorlage.net.au/clclax.org.au-new/multisite.php

and step 9 says go to your subdomain - http://jmcausing.vorlage.com.au - nothing happens "page cannot be dispalyed

it also says " delete the subdomain folder step 6

please help

thank you
