Multi-domain usage under Leopard

[ibgarrett]

I’m stuck. I’ve successfully setup a single group in the wiki under 10.5.0 (and now 10.5.1), but when I try to add a second group wiki I’m getting a “404: No group with that name (prepubgroup) hosted on this server”

Now I’ve got prepubgroup located in about every place that I can think of (obviously not the right spot though). I’ve got it setup as a domain name and as a Group Name in the Workgroup Manager. Now the odd thing is if I select the prepubgroup under “Enable the following services for this group” (and check the subsequent boxes under that), hit save and then look at the existing (and working) group – the selection for “Enable the following services for this group” has gone to (None).

I suspect that it has something to do with the configuration of the Domains under the Sites. I’m more than happy to look around at some documentation on this. If someone could point me in the right direction, I greatly would appreciate it.

Thanks,

I’ve been exploring this very issue for weeks! I’ve got a test server set at home behind a firewall with DNS set up for my local network. For my internet domain “idiotshow.net” all services are nat’d to my server and works well for my normal web site “www.idiotshow.net” and everything else. Not so good with the group wiki/blog feature, the groups appear on the web site but you get a error 404 if you try and connect to it. It does work as expected on my local network and I suspect it would work if my server was in a DMZ with an ISP that was hosting my domain.

The settings for web services are confusing, this group blog thing seems to work ONLY if you use the servers FQDN in all the settings for web and iCal also. I’ve been trying to get a handle on the “Teamserver” damon/service that seems to be the conduit linking these services together. Unfortunately, I’ve not been able to find much info on this yet. At this point, I’m not even sure this behavior is wrong.

Make sure your DNS is good, use the full DNS name for web and iCal…enable the group to use the blog/wiki feature add your users and it should work.

Thank you very much for the FQDN tip. This was driving me crazy.

I had already reinstalled Leopard (I had originally upgraded server from Tiger and that turned out to be a nightmare for my advanced server setup) and this was the only missing piece for the new, fully updated web server configuration.

Thanks a million!
