[opencms-dev] OC10 multi-site configuration

As I said, as soon as you have configured another site, you must access the workplace server with the exact configured URL from the <workplace-server> node. 

So if <workplace-server> has the default "localhost" setting, and you are using the IP number, it's not working as soon as you have more then one site configured.

Among other things, this is a security feature to make it easier to protect access to the login page. 

Kind regards,
Alex.

That’s what I use in both cases (without the second site when I’m able to connect workspace, and with second site added where I get 404). The only difference, of course I use the IP of the Tomcat Docker engine, not “localhost” (in both cases).

> long ago I experimented with multi-site configuration on OC 9.5.1 successfully and now I tried to renew this on a current OC version in a more modern development environment – a Tomcat Docker container in an Linux VMWare machine. As it’s for development only no Apache HTTPD is involved yet.

But as soon as I add a second site as “localhost:8081” in “opencms-system.xml” and restart Tomcat I get a 404 instead login page (a OC style 404 page). Of course Tomcat configuration is expanded also to connect additional ports (8081, …), Docker is started for that port also. Default site still is available (has just a plain HTML page by now for testing). Changing port number in that URL to 8081 also delivers content from “/sites/default/” instead different one. Log files show no striking errors, exceptions.
