CiviCRM Community Forums (archive)

I have a Drupal 6 / CiviCRM 3.0.3 site which needs to now support a second domain name. What I mean is that we have a name like dog.org, let's say, and now we need to have a new domain like poodle.org. I have poodle.org working insofar as I set it up on the (dedicated RHEL) server as a symlink to dog.org meaning

/var/www/vhosts/poodle.org is a symlink to /var/www/vhosts/dog.org

The Drupal part of the site works fine when accessed as poodle.org but all CiviCRM pages give WSOD. I see no errors in either poodle or dog error logs however. I tried creating unique settings files for the poodle site in sites/poodle.org (and I set CIVICRM_UF_BASEURL to poodle.org) but that doesn't seem to help. It seems like there may be a permissions problem executing a CiviCRM PHP file, as that problem can generate WSOD with no Apache error, but I'm not sure how to determine for sure what the issue is.

Any suggestions how further to debug this?

there has to be an error logged in some log file somewhere, u might want to check a bit more

You were correct. I found an error in /var/log/messages

The problem was safe_mode and open_basedir. Plesk can't handle this setup (my symlink) but adjusting the Apache conf files manually worked. It took a bit of time, but it would appear that this setup is now working. I see the event registration page for each domain name and so, pursuant to further testing of course, it appears to work.

Thank you.
