Hello

I need to create a multisite project:

1. example.com in root directory
2. something.example.com with something.com forwarding to something.example.com in "something" directory under root

I need to have separate databases

Both are drupal sites, example.com works OK but something.example.com does not work, the site's front page loads, but after clicking on any link it gives "site not found"... I tried to set the base path, delete .htaccess, delete the path module.... no help

What are the steps I need to make? Can you give me some tutorial pls...

Thanks a lot

mog

The scenario you describe is not really a multi-site configuration. Multi-site is where you have different domains pointing to the same location on your webserver and then allow Drupal to control what is displayed to those two different domains. (You describe two domains pointing to different places.)

In your example then you need to have your webserver configured so that www.example.com AND something.example.com point to the same filesystem location. If you are using a web hosting service (i.e. you don't have full control over your webserver configuration) you need to explain this to their support desk and they should be able to assist you.

When you have the domains set up correctly Drupal will work exactly as described in the INSTALL.txt and in the handbook (http://drupal.org/node/43816)
