Problem with multisite

I am trying to set up a Multi site installation using sub directories. Each site will be for a different language. I have read the documentation many times but I am obviously missing something - I can go into each of the sites - but when I change the content on a page in one site - its changed on all of the sites - what am I missing 

The site is www.ihpva.eu and at the moment login etc is the default ones 

My config is as follows :-

<!-- ******* multi site installation settings -->
<add key="AllowMultipleSites" value="True" />
<add key="AllowDeletingChildSites" value="false" />
<!--
UseRelatedSiteMode means all sites in a multi site installation use the same users
all users must have a site id so in this mode we use the same site id for all users
-->
<add key="UseRelatedSiteMode" value="True" />
<add key="RelatedSiteID" value="1" />
<add key="RelatedSiteModeHideRoleManagerInChildSites" value="True" />
<add key="AllowFileManagerInChildSites" value="false" />
<add key="AllowPasswordFormatChangeInChildSites" value="false" />
<add key="ShowSystemInformationInChildSiteAdminMenu" value="true" />
<add key="UseFoldersInsteadOfHostnamesForMultipleSites" value="True" />
<add key="DisallowedVirtualFolderNames" value="Admin;ClientScript;Controls;Data;FCKeditor;Modules;NeatHtml;NeatUpload;Secure;Services;Setup;SiteOffice;WebStore" />
<add key="EnableSSLInChildSites" value="false" />

Re: Problem with multisite

Hi Neil,

If you want to use extensionless urls like www.ihpva.eu/nl, then you have to actually create a physical folder /nl and put a text file there named Default.aspx.

Notice that it already works correctly if you use the url www.ihpva.eu/nl/Default.aspx as you see the different skin and I was able to edit, so if you don't want to create the folders and filesyou can change links from the flag icons to use [nl]/Default.aspx

I would change the login credentials right away. You can always send me credentials if you need me totry it again.

Hope it helps,

Joe

Hmm

Now I am a bit puzzled as I had already created the directories and put a default.aspx file there. I am assuming there needs to be someing in the IIS config I need to do - default.aspx is already the default document

Re: Problem with multisite

I would treat it as case sensitive and see if that solves it. I mean Default.aspx not default.aspx

Hope it helps,

Re: Problem with multisite

Make sure the web process has read permission on those Default.aspx files. Also make sure Default.aspx is the default document not default.aspx.

Hope it helps,

Joe

Re: Problem with multisite

Very strange since it does work if you append Default.aspx to the url.

If I think of anything else I'll post it but nothing else comes to mind at the moment.

Best,

Joe

Re: Problem with multisite

Hi Neil,

I was able to reproduce the problem about the folder with the Default.aspx file in it not working. It turned out to be a bug in the url re-writer, it is fixed in version 2.2.8.6

Best,

Joe
