Description
I want to have identical websites running on immo-egypte.be and immo-egypte.nl, which both use the files from immo-egypte.com.
I tried using the Virtual Sites Module to set-up a condition which checks on hostname immo-egypte.be in order to load a virtual site. I might not have done this correctly since the Drupal Installation Wizard was loading when visiting the domain.
Is this how virtual sites is supposed to be used or am I trying something outside of the scope of this module? If not, how can I make this work properly?

Hi,
This is a use cae of Virtual Site. My owns were running fine until some days ago.
i open an issue for my case, and may be yours is related.

I had this problem too... I think the docs assume you have a subsite where all paths (aliases) are something along the lines of http://mymainsite.com/subsite/* - So, they tell you to define a condition for pages.
In my case, I want to run the same sites from the same base... as described above.
So I tried
1. defining a condition under Requirement:hostname -
2. selected "only on listed host names" and
3. entered myothersite.com as the hostname.
4. selected that condition for my virtual site.
It worked... I'm happy.
We are planning to have a number of different "faces" for our main site - so this module will make things much simpler for us to manage... or at least not as complicated. Thanks to the developer(s).
