My solution to getting Clean URL working with my multisite setup drupal 4.7
I added Alias to my httpd.conf apache file:
<VirtualHost *:80>
# Alias for all php drupal sites
Alias /abc /var/www/html/drupal
Alias /def /var/www/html/drupal
Alias /xyz /var/www/html/drupal
</VirtualHost>
My setup has 4 sites /drupal, /abc, /def, /xyz all files are in the /drupal directory
- url=/drupal (sites/default/)
- url=/abc (sites/localhost.abc/)
- url=/def (sites/localhost.def/)
- url=/xyz (sites/localhost.xyz/)
In the /drupal/.htacess file. I added a RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} condition for
each site, and so have separate RewriteRule for each site.
No need for the RewriteBase directive, leave it commented out:
#RewriteBase /drupal DO NOT NEED THIS, COMMENT OUT RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/drupal/(.*)$ RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /drupal/index.php?q=$1 [L,QSA] RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/abc/(.*)$ RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /abc/index.php?q=$1 [L,QSA] RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/def/(.*)$ RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /def/index.php?q=$1 [L,QSA] RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/xyz/(.*)$ RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /xyz/index.php?q=$1 [L,QSA]
Note: each site has its own database aswell as files, modules and themes directories in the corresponding sites/localhost.site/ directory.
