Hi
Create slave sites from base site copying images and template.

First I experienced trouble with templates, but found that hardcoded path to css should be changed - templates works fine now.

I administer the sites via backend.

The files end in correct image folder (not using symbolic links) in slave when uploaded, but no thumnail image picture, just a red cross. In the "Medier", Field "Filer:" the path is correct.
Copying the image file to the master image folder, show correct thumnail pic.

Im running in a Turnkey joomla vmware appliance on ubuntu platform, running on my own server, with multisites installed.

I have seen suggestions to add virtual host to the weserver. I used webmin to add a virtual host with the domain to point to the slave site, but had no effect.
I tested by creating an empty folder, and pointed the virtual host to that folder, but I still get the master site, entering the new domain pointing to the empty folder.

As default, the Apache has 4 virtual hosts defined:
1) Address: Any; Port: Any; Document Root: Automatic.
2) Address: Any; Port: 80; Document Root: /usr/share/joomla15/
3) Address: Any; Port: 443; Document Root: /usr/share/joomla15/
4) Address: Any; Port: 12322; Document Root: /usr/share/phpmyadmin/

I added
Address: testing.mydomain.dk; Port: Any; Document Root: /usr/share/joomla15/multisites/testing

Setting the port to 81, wion't hit anything

Does anybody have any clue to what should be changed for the slave site to work correct?

Where is the information stored about wich folder to pick the images from?

Your description show clearly that you have a problem in the Webmin setting.

You can test the settings of your Webmin with the "hello word".
See tutorila video 7.
www.jms2win.com/tutorial#jms12x-7

This will help you start setup the Webmin subdomain correctly and until you are not able to access a specific document root created for this subdimain, this will not help you try setup JMS Multisites to deploy something in the specific document root.


You problem seems to show that you have all the subdomain defined like an alias of your master website that would explain that all of them reach the master website document root location.

When you will have defined the Webmin correctly for a subdomain with a specific document root location in which you only have the "hello.php" file to test the setup then you can delete the hello.php and go in the master website where you define a slave site with the new subdomain tested and its location on the disk displayed by hello world.

Hi
Edited /etc/apache2/sites_available/joomla15.
Removed the *:80 entry
Added new entries for each domain and subdomain.
That solved the issue.
