Strangely I seem to be getting an error thus far not mentioned and although I posted this elsewhere on this forum it got no interest; this thread is probably the right place for it.
I have been trying the multi-store setup using latest OC version and have spent more time than I care to admit on getting this to work. I am attempting to get a few stores on one domain using sub-domains, pretty basic stuff really. This is my take on the days spent reading up and attempting to get this right.
The sub domains have been created in the cpanel and are set thus:
subdom1.domain.com (1 to 3)
Document root:
/public_html/domain.com/online/subdom1
/public_html/domain.com/online/subdom2
/public_html/domain.com/online/subdom3
i.e. each of them is a sub domain of
http://www.domain.com/online/ where OC is installed and working as it should.
In OC I have the stores set to
http://www.domain.com/online/subdom1 etc. however when I click on the ‘storefront’ link or type in the address directly; instead of showing a store I get the default contents of the empty folder i.e.
Index of /online/subdom1
• Parent Directory
• cgi-bin/
I don’t particularly want to make copies of the main domain into each sub-domain, but if that’s what it takes to resolve this then I will, however its kind of defeating the multi-store option where I will only need to change the different stores logo.
Some fundamental error going on here that my brain is in meltdown trying to solve… anyone?
