Hello,

I’m having a problem moving one of my sites to a new domain.
I currently have 3 websites set up on my multi site configuration:

http://website.com (primary site - inc system folder)
http://store.website.com
http://testsite.website.com

I want to move my 3rd site to its own domain:

http://testsite.website.com >move to> http://website2.com

I assumed this would be as simple as moving index.php & admin.php (and images folder etc) and reconfiguring these to point to the system folder on http://website.com

As explained on http://ellislab.com/expressionengine/user-guide/cp/sites/domainsetup.html

However when doing so I have the following error:

“Your system folder path does not appear to be set correctly. Please open the following file and correct this: index.php”

I’ve checked with my host (hostgator) and apparantly all of the domains are on the same server. I’m Running the latest versions of EE: 2.2.2

I couldn’t find any documentation or similar problems on the forums.

Thanks in advanced,

UPDATE:

I contacted Hostgator again and they informed me that the sites would have to be on the same C-panel, assuming that the multi site setup uses 1 database.

Is this correct?

Yes, you’ll need to have all the sites on the same cPanel. MSM uses as single database. Is that the way you set things up?
