Works like a charm. Thank you very much. Having multiple databases was a big time sync on our last project.

Hi..

Regarding the SetEnv MAGENTO_DEVURLS /path/to/urls.ini

..dose any one have an idea where the ‘Apache Config’ folder is located?

My ’staging’ site is located on a subdomain of our web site, hosted with a web hosting company and cPanel is our file manager.

No where in our ‘home directory’ can we find the ‘Apache’ ‘Config’ folder in which we think we include the … SetEnv MAGENTO_DEVURLS /path/to/urls.ini some where with-in.

Do we need to create these folders? Where about is the …urls.ini line entered?

Any help / clarification about this would be grate and very much appreciated.

Thanks

You are really well informed and are really talented. I have read the above but I too new to work out what i need to do. I am new to magento and code for that matter. I have installed a working copy of magento but am not sure on how to set up a staging site and run multiple websites from multiple domains with one magento install. Would be grateful for a dummies guide.

You get this error after applying the dev/staging url changes? removing them makes the store work as normal ? What version of magento are you running ?

I’ve tried your version, but i get a strange error:

Can’t retrieve entity config: core/store_group

I haven’t found any documentation on what it means, there’s two that have similar problem, but no solution anywhere…

Jools,

Woops! I should have re-read your original post (and remembered that your solution was to use the full path in apache config).

Thanks again!

I dont keep my urls.ini inside the magento working folder, and use an absolute path to it, so your change isn’t needed in this case. However your change is useful if you want to keep it relative to the magento install folder. Thanks.
