Hello all.
I'm running drupal as my main site, but because I'm developing a site for someone who wants to use Mambo, I'm trying to install mambo into a subdomain of the main site.
Following the instructions of my webhosts, I created a folder within the main folder structure and created a virtual host using their control panel.
When I initially tried to navigate to the subdomain, all I got was the main site with a 404 error. I had a feeling this might be to do with the .htaccess file, but I could be wrong.
In any case, I attempted to place a rewrite rule into the drupal .htaccess file which certainly achieved something, since instead of a nice 404 error, I am now getting a 500 error.
The following is the .htaccess file from drupal:
#
# Apache/PHP/Drupal settings:
#
Protect files and directories from prying eyes.
Order deny,allow
Deny from all
# Set some options.
Options -Indexes
Options +FollowSymLinks
# Customized error messages.
ErrorDocument 404 /index.php
# Set the default handler.
DirectoryIndex index.php
# Override PHP settings. More in sites/default/settings.php
# but the following cannot be changed at runtime.
# PHP 4, Apache 1
