Hi—I’ve downloaded and installed the multi-site module, and have run into some problems.

I’ve followed the steps in the user guide, and added the second site in EE. I also moved index.php and path.php to the new domain (hosted on the same host, Engine Hosting). 

When I browse to the new site home page, I get the following error:

The system path does not appear to be set correctly. Please open your path.php file and correct the path.

I have htaccess set up to remove index.php in my main site.  A copy of the htacess rewrite is below:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond $1 !^(images|favicon\.ico|robots\.txt|index\.php) [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php/$1 [L]

The path.php for the second site is shown below:

$system_path = “./systeme/”;
$site_name = ‘’;
$template_group = “”;
$template = “”;
$site_url = “http://www….com”;
$site_index = “”;
$site_404 = “”;
$global_vars = array(); // This array must be associative

Any thoughts on what I’ve done wrong?  Thanks in advance!

The $system_path is wrong (and I renamed it in the above example- always good to keep that private).  Basically, that’s the message you’ll get if it can’t find the system folder.  Likely you just need to add an extra dot to the path:

$system_path = "../systeme/";


Also- I always have to put an htaccess file in the subfolder as well- but get it up and working first.  If you need to do it, you’ll spot it right off.
