Hey,

It was possible to install a slave site. The installation works fine.
but when i go to the slave site--it is empty!
nothing is shown.

what is wrong?i installed it with samples.. need help..thx

other point:

I use the Apache server with virtualHost.
when i linking the slave domain as SHOWN in the tutorial/manual it doesn work!!
it must link to the main cms site.

<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot "C:/xampp/htdocs/cms"
ServerName xxx.xxx.xxx
</VirtualHost>
#Slavesite
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot "C:/xampp/htdocs/cms"
ServerName xxx.xxx.xxx
</VirtualHost>
#Slavesite not working
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot "C:/xampp/htdocs/cms/multisites"
ServerName xxx.xxx.xxx
</VirtualHost>

best regards

When you create a fresh slave site using the Joomla Installation procedure, you receive an empty slave site like if you just have installed Joomla.

If you want replicate an existing website to avoid re-installing the extension and the content, you can define replicatoin rules in the "Website Template" and when creating a slave site refer to the "Website Template".

The definition of the VirtualHost and in particular the DocumentRoot depend if you have deployed the slave site into a specific directory using the Symbolic Link or if you have decided to share the same master website root directory.

If you have deployed the slave site into a specific directory, you have to give this specific directory in the DocumentRoot
If you have used {site_dir} in JMS,
DocumentRoot "C:/xampp/htdocs/cms/multisites/XXXXXXXX"
Where XXXXXXXX is the slave site ID.
(I have assumed that "C:/xampp/htdocs/cms" is the root of your master website).
