Hello. I'd like to know if somebody has a guide on how to install a Drupal Multisite under a running ISPConfig. I've found one link [1] for Drupal multisite installation on howtoforge but it is not using ISPConfig, i tried to adapt the paths but something is going wrong. Any information is welcomed. [1] http://www.howtoforge.com/multisite_drupal_installation_ubuntu Thanks, __________
I'm also after this. I managed to get Drupal working with one installation having followed all the tutorials but it would be great to find out how to organise a multisite setup using ispConfig.
Hi falko Once it is a published web site, I had to come back all the confs, tonight I'll try again and I'll post the error message here. Until where I remember, when accessing the page to configure drupal, it was showing an error related with permission. This access is to configure the #1 drupal website. thanks for your time.
Hello, I'm back... I'll post the step-by-step of what I did, I've used the following link as a reference: http://www.howtoforge.com/multisite_drupal_installation_ubuntu Starting... -> Configure DNS - not needed. -> Install Packages - they are there. -> Test Apache2/PHP Installation On ISPConfig I've selected the websites I'm working on and have selected the option 'PHP Scripts' but not 'PHP Safe Mode' under 'Basic' tab. After this, my websites were able to run PHP scripts. -> Test MySQL Installation - ok -> Install Drupal Using CVS - ok -> CVS Updates - ok -> Create Additional Directories - ok -> Create the Drupal Sites - now start the problem. I'm in doubt about this step because I really don't know if this step is needed, if is needed to do it to enable the websites to be reached. I'm using ISPConfig and on my point of view, it is an unnecessary step, off course, with the exception for the mysql stuff, anyway, I made it cd /var/www/drupal/sites cp -a default www.example-a.com cp -a default www.example-b.com To create mysql user and dbs I've used ISPConfig. To run the 'grant' command I've used phpmyadmin. At this instructions: "We now need to configure Apache to serve up the two websites. The first step is to allow multiple websites on the same server (virtual websites):" I made like showed. I've edited the file /etc/apache2/sites-available/default like showed and then, using this template I've issued the following commands: cd /etc/apache2/sites-available cp default www.example-a.com cp default www.example-b.com cd ../sites-enabled rm 000-default ln -s ../sites-available/www.example-a.com 001-www.example-a.com ln -s ../sites-available/www.example-b.com 002-www.example-b.com The difference here is the sites names, at the link, the names are only 'www' and 'www2' in my situation I informed the full website URL and when I've restart apache it is happening an error like this: server:/etc/apache2/sites-enabled# /etc/init.d/apache2 restart Forcing reload of web server (apache2)... waiting Syntax error on line 6 of /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/001-www.example-a.com: AllowOverride not allowed here failed! -> Configuring Drupal - first, I need to correct the error and then I'll be able to walk here... falko or *, this message helps you on helping me or you need more information? if 'yes', please let me know. thanks,
Ok falko, I will skip this step, now, what is the best way to point the ISPConfig website to access the Drupal website. Should I edit the file /etc/apache2/vhosts/Vhosts_ispconfig.conf and set the 'DocumentRoot' pointing to '/var/www/drupal/www.example-a.com' or should I add the following <Directory> tag in the Apache Directives field on the 'Basis' tab. <Directory /var/www/drupal/www.example-a.com/> Options +Includes +FollowSymlinks -Indexes AllowOverride All Order allow,deny Allow from all <Files ~ "^\.ht"> Deny from all </Files> </Directory> I've got this <Directory> tag from this link http://www.howtoforge.com/drupal_ispconfig Other question is should I create the '.htaccess' file inside the Drupal website? if yes, what should be in this file?
Some Help with '500 error - Internal Server Error!' This error is happening when I'm trying to access the url 'www.example-a.com' At this file '/var/www/web2/log/error.log' we have a lot of this message: [Mon Sep 10 11:56:01 2007] [alert] [client 192.168.1.6] /var/www/drupal/.htaccess: Option Indexes not allowed here Now, what I've made to try to solve this issue. Changed the tag for 'mod_rewrite.c' on '/var/www/drupal/.htaccess' to: <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine on RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php?q=$1 [L,QSA] ### -> added the '/' before 'index.php' </IfModule> Modified the 'AllowOverride' and commented the <Files> tag at the /etc/apache2/apache2.conf, it now look like this: <Directory /var/www/*/web> Options +Includes +FollowSymlinks -Indexes #AllowOverride None AllowOverride All #AllowOverride Indexes AuthConfig Limit FileInfo Order allow,deny Allow from all #<Files ~ "^\.ht"> #Deny from all #</Files> </Directory> On '/etc/apache2/vhosts/Vhosts_ispconfig.conf' file, the 'DocumentRoot' is pointing to '/var/www/drupal/www.example-a.com'. Changed the group and owner of the directory '/var/www/drupal/sites/www.example-a.com' to 'www-data' and 'web2' For this Vhost at the file '/etc/apache2/vhosts/Vhosts_ispconfig.conf' the configuration look like this: ###################################### # Vhost: www.example-a.com:80 ###################################### # # <VirtualHost 111.111.111.111:80> ServerName www.example-a.com:80 ServerAdmin [email protected] #DocumentRoot /var/www/web2/web DocumentRoot /var/www/drupal/sites/www.example-a.com ServerAlias www.example-a.com DirectoryIndex index.html index.htm index.php index.php5 index.php4 index.php3 index.shtml index.cgi index .pl index.jsp Default.htm default.htm ErrorLog /var/www/web2/log/error.log AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .php3 .php4 .php5 <Files *.php> SetOutputFilter PHP SetInputFilter PHP </Files> <Files *.php3> SetOutputFilter PHP SetInputFilter PHP </Files> <Files *.php4> SetOutputFilter PHP SetInputFilter PHP </Files> <Files *.php5> SetOutputFilter PHP SetInputFilter PHP </Files> php_admin_flag safe_mode Off Alias /error/ "/var/www/web2/web/error/" ErrorDocument 400 /error/invalidSyntax.html ErrorDocument 401 /error/authorizationRequired.html ErrorDocument 403 /error/forbidden.html ErrorDocument 404 /error/fileNotFound.html ErrorDocument 405 /error/methodNotAllowed.html ErrorDocument 500 /error/internalServerError.html ErrorDocument 503 /error/overloaded.html AliasMatch ^/~([^/]+)(/(.*))? /var/www/web2/user/$1/web/$3 AliasMatch ^/users/([^/]+)(/(.*))? /var/www/web2/user/$1/web/$3 </VirtualHost> Well, I'm really needing your help to solve this issue because I don't know what could be the next step to put ISPConfig + Drupal Multisite running together here on my server. Thanks in advance,
