Hello,

I am currently converting an existing website (http://www.guido.be) to the dotnetnuke framework.

We have to completely separate sites.
http://www.guido.be (The Dutch version) and http://www.guido.be/fr (The French version).
Those are 2 complete different sites, using 2 complete different databases.

In ISS it's configured like this: We have one site (http://www.guido.be) and in that site a virtual directory (fr) to the French version.
So we have 2 folders, in both folders the same files and code.
For testing purposes we also have on the default website in ISS the both sites as a virtual directory.

I tried accomplishing the same on dotnetnuke.
I started programming and testing on the Dutch version (which was a virtual directory under the default website: http://212.123.6.126/DotNetNuke). Which works.
But now I'm asked to put the French version on, so a French collegue could start translating and stuff. So I copied the folder from the dutch site in to a new folder (http://212.123.6.126/DotNetNukeFR), took a copy of the database used for the dutch site, and changed the web.config file to use the new database.

And now I'm stuck.
Dutch version still works, French version don't.

Can somebody help me out here?
Is it possible to run 2 dotnetnuke sites (read sites and not portals) on the same server?
Do I need to change some values somewhere?

Thanks in advance,
Gunther

At first every page i tried to visit on the French version, redirected me to "http://localhost/dotnetnukefr".

I had to do an IIS Reset on the server for some other thing I was working on, and since then I can visit almost every page from the navgition structure.
All except "Host".

For example clicking in the navigation structure on "Win", and selecting the subnavigation "Wedstrijden", works fine. I get to the page listing all the contests.
But when I now click on one contest to open the Detail for that contest, it redirects me to the http://localhost/dotnetnukefr, instead of the http://212.123.6.126/dotnetnukefr/Win/ContestView/tabid/77/cid/14/Default.aspx. 
And when I click the URL mentioned above, it also redirects me to that http://localhost/dotnetnukefr page.

I checked web.config settings, IIS Settings, even data in the database.
Can't seem to find anything wrong, everything is the same as in the Dutch version (copied the code, web.config and database from the Dutch).
Only changes made are connectionstrings in the web.config and portal aliases in the database.

Hope I explained the problem well.

Thanks in advance,

This sure sounds like a portal alias issue.  Separate sites in IIS, correct?  Are you using host headers for the sites on a single IP?
