CiviCRM Community Forums (archive)

Looking at our test install it looks to be at .../sites/<site1>/civicrm.settings.php

if this is correct we should add to the first line of the wiki.

You probably want to read the last third of this long thread as there are a lot of fixes being done (or maybe they are in the current release - not too sure.

http://forum.civicrm.org/index.php/topic,10930.0.html

followed the wiki instructions but so far not having much luck.
I have 7 domains set up in drupal, one L1 org and 6 L2 orgs.
All 6 L2 orgs have the L1 org set as the 'parent' group.
Modified all the civicrm.settings.php files for each domain to use their appropriate domain id, group id and org id:
define( 'CIVICRM_MULTISITE'           , 1 );
define( 'CIVICRM_UNIQ_EMAIL_PER_SITE' , 1 );
define( 'CIVICRM_DOMAIN_ID'      , 1 );
define( 'CIVICRM_DOMAIN_GROUP_ID', 6 );
define( 'CIVICRM_DOMAIN_ORG_ID'  , 4 );

Users created on L2a are added to the L1 group and not the L2a group and a user on L2a can see all child groups of L1 (L2b, L2c, etc)

Step 3 is 'Modify civicrm_codebase/sql/civicrm_navigation.mysql file and specify new domain, e.g'
Older setup instructions mention running the civicrm_data.mysql file, is this not necessary on 3.1?

Do I need to set up a drupal role to match each civicrm L2 group?

Yes, downloaded and enabled the multisite module. I followed all the steps in the wiki instructions. My L2 domains have their own directories under the 'sites' directory with their civicrm settings files set to the appropriate domain id, group id, and org id.

L1 site:     drupal/sites/default/settings.php
           drupal/sites/default/civicrm.settings.php
L2 site:   drupal/sites/domain2.com/civicrm.settings.php
L2 site:   drupal/sites/domain3.com/civicrm.settings.php

In my civicrm_domain table, the 'config_backend' field is null for my L2 domains, is there something special that needs to be entered there?

Hello,

First of all, many thanks to the people who developed this wonderful product, and maintain this forum. We have been trying to make CiViCRM multisite functionality work for a week. I have read all the related posts. We have followed the instructions at wiki.civicrm.org/confluence/display/CRMDOC40/Multi+Site+Installation (sorry, the forum wouldn't let me post external links). We are stuck at Step 11, where we need to install Drupal multisite module. We put both files "multisite.info" and "multisite.module" in a directory titled "multisite" and put it under the following locations, neither of which has worked (the module does not appear under Drupal admin's module list):
/modules
/sites/all/modules/civicrm/drupal/modules

How should we proceed? We appreciate any guidance.

Hi Donald,

My Drupal install successfully detects/installs/uses all CiviCRM modules and other ones. It looks like the latest multisite module works only for Drupal 6.x, which is what I get from the multisite.info file. I will install Drupal 6.19 along with CiViCRM 3.4.7 and see if it works.

I think all you need to do to make the multisite module work with Drupal 7 is change core = 6.x to core = 7.x in multisite.info . multisite.module only contains functions for civicrm hooks & associated helper functions, I don't see anything that would require changing for D7. Seems fine in early testing here. If you find something that does need changing, please post details.
