I just bought a new MT PRO license with the thought of doing one install for multiple domains. I have MT PRO installed with all the needed perl modules. I'm running Apache 1.3.41 on a Mac OS X 10.4.11 server.
I'm going to have several sites each with their own domain. Naturally by doing one install I have one management interface to log into.
For the second domain the alias for mt-static files is working, however the cgi execution isn't working using the ScriptAlias. My log files indicate the following error suggesting ScriptAlias isn't mapping to the right directory.
[error] script not found or unable to stat: /WebServer/Documents/mtpro/SecondDomainf/mt-cp.cgi
Below is the relevant setup information. For purposes of this query to the group I've changed the domains and renamed the paths to suit.
Can anyone help me?
COMMON FILE SETUP:
mt-config.cgi
- set CGIPath to /

Wow, I must have posted either a tough question or a stupid one :-) Which is it? Anyone care to tackle the issue.
This is my first post to MT as I am a new user with the same intentions. I just installed the script and I am so lost. I have been a Wordpress user and wanted something different. I Hope that this community is more responsive as I must say, "I have one foot in and one hanging outside when it comes to my overall view of MT." Good luck Mark.
Does the mtpro directory contain you mt scripts?
Rob, yes it does.
For the time being I'm using one domain, the cgi domain, shared across the rest of them. It's the simplest solution.
