Hi,

I checked with my hosting server support guys, but they are not allowing to make any changes in config files as our domain is on shared hosting server. So changes in config files may affect their other clients.

Now what we can do. Is there any other option, that will work for my scenerio(i.e. slave site deploy directory should be different than for the master site)

Thanking you,
Nikhil.

Does that mean that the Symbolic Link functionality is not working on your hosting company.

If yes, the only solution is to do the same as for windows platform.
Share the same directory for all the websites and therefore not deploy the slave site in a specific directory.

The other solution is to change of hosting provider or perhaps hosting plan (if that give you the permission).

Hi,

Thanks for your valuable support. Now the site is moved to VPS server and I have the root access. So i have changed the permissions to access master site dir's from slave site. Now I am able to access frontend and admin properly.

But, when i am trying to install components on fresh slave site it's giving error as
'Warning! Failed to move file'. So , I want to know, how can I install new compoents/extensions on slave site or can I share/duplicate the components from master site ?
What procedure i need to follow for that.

As it's a fresh slave site , it's having different database than the master site database.

Thank you,
Nikhil.

"Failed to move file" let me suspect that you have a problem of ownership of the files and folder

As you are using a VPS, verify the ownership of the files and folder.
Check also that WHM is configured to use shPHP so that the owner of a file will be the owner of the created files. In other words, the ownership will be the same as the one runing a php file.

As the site was mifrated from old server to new server , it was having different users.

Now i have installed joomla and jms into subfolder under master domain.
Then i have created one slave site with new DB replicating master site DB.
But i can not access the administrator part of slave site and it's showing blank page for front end.

I am getting this error :
Forbidden
You do not have permission to access this document.

I tried by setting permissions of administrator dir to 777/775, but no difference.

For the front end, the templates dir is exists, but showing blank page.

Any solution on this ?

Thank you,
Nikhil

Except a problem of permission or ownership, I don't see other reason.

Verify the parent directories permissions.
Try to put a "hello.php" into the directories and verify its ownership.
This will help you to test the permission of the directories and after that you will be able to verify the permission of the files.

Try also to have a look in the "error_log" file. Perhaps you will get info concerning the files that have a wrong permission.

Blank page is frequently due to a PHP fatal error.
Verify the "error_log" file to get more info on the file that get an error.
Perhaps you are trying to include a file that has a wrong permission.
