Hi, seems like there are some difficulties, using my proposed method to set up multi-wikis, so I am trying very, very hard to implement Daniel Barrett's idea which avoids trying to reinvent the wheel.
Actually, I have tried that before many years back but I could not understand the procedure. Now that I have acquired a little more knowledge and tried again by really, really putting by best foot forward, I still encounter the same problem. Would appreciate if you can help me find out what's wrong with what I do. Since it is easier to put it in a webpage, together with illustrating diagrams, I have rewrote this pagehttp://computer-stuffs.jbdirectory.com/My_directory_layout.
from http://computer-stuffs.jbdirectory.com/My_directory_layout and http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Wiki_family :
If your wikis are in different directories (e.g. yourdomain.com/wiki1, yourdomain.com/wiki2 etc) *linked to the main wiki directory* on your server (say yourdomain.com/w), use this:
how did you "implement" the link of "different directories (...) linked to the main wiki directory" ?
From the error message and your explanations I would think that :
[1] you did not make that link properly [2] you're making some kind of a mix between point 7.1 and 7.2 of "Scenario 2: Quick set-up" (you have separate directories (7.2), but at the same time you use sub-domains (7.1) )
Note that [2] is not a problem, I think it can work, but it's just to be sure of what is it that you're trying to do (AFAIK mixing 7.1 and 7.2 is almost equivalent to 7.1).
As for [1], create a file index.php in your "health" folder with just "<?php echo "hello world"; ?>" and go to http://health.jbdirectory.com/ if you see the "hello world" message, it probably means [1].
