*I’m running the latest versions of EE and MSM*

The install of MSM went fine. I created the second site, as well as set up a folder for it in the root dir of my site and copied the index.php and path.php from the root and placed them into the newly created directory. The path php looks like this:

<?php

// ------------------------------------------------------
// DO NOT ALTER THIS FILE UNLESS YOU HAVE A REASON TO

// ------------------------------------------------------
// Path to the directory containing your backend files

$system_path = "/system/";

// ------------------------------------------------------
// MANUALLY CONFIGURABLE VARIABLES
// See user guide for more information
// ------------------------------------------------------
$site_name = 'pineview';
$template_group = "";
$template = "";
$site_url = "";
$site_index = "";
$site_404 = "";
$global_vars = array(); // This array must be associative

?>

In the CP for the second site I updated the global template preferences, as well as the General Config. Settings are as follows:

URL to the root directory of your site: http://pineviewcreative.com
URL to your Control Panel index page: left this the same)
URL to your “themes” folder: left this the same
Theme Folder Path: left this the same

I do have htaccess - But I’ve taken that out of the equation to no effect. I’ve also disabled all extensions - same thing. The second site keeps redirecting to the first site’s index. I shot an email off to EH to see if maybe this could be server side. 

Does everything look alright?

Does the second site directory sit next to the site 1 index.php file?  If not, what is it?

/public_html/
/public_html/system
/public_html/index.php
/public_html/path.php
/public_html/styles
/public_html/themes
/public_html/path.php
/public_html/images
/public_html/2nd site/index.php
/public_html/2nd site/path.php

okay, for the 2nd site path.php file you need to set the system path to:

$system_path = "../system/";

-greg

I set it to /www/eh#/public_htm/system/ (as well as everything else that makes logical sense)

No dice.

Thanks for the help so far though, Greg.

for the secondary site, add your site_url to path.php, eg:

$site_url = 'http://example.com/';

Just a quick update on this (in case anyone runs into this in the future…)

It turned out to be server side. The folks at EH got me squared away nicely. Greg, thanks again for your help! You may go ahead and shut this one down.

Glad Greg was able to get you squared away James. Feel free to post again if you have any more questions.
