Thanks for your reply. I am sorry for not putting my problem clearly.

I understood that Interchange will share the same script-name. I am able to share this

properly when I install it without using FullURL yes option in Interchange.cfg file as

shown below

FullURL  yes
Catalog       store /home/gvijeeth/catalogs/store /cgi-bin/store www.domainname.com/store
Variable SCRIPT_REPLACE /store
This works fine for me without showing the script-name on the URL i.e cgi-bin.

Immedialtly when I install a new store giving the servername as the same domain which is used for the

first store. The configuration in the interchange.cfg would appear like this


FullURL  yes
Catalog    store1 /home/gvijeeth/catalogs/store1 /cgi-bin/store1 www.domainname.com/store1
Variable SCRIPT_REPLACE /store
Catalog   store2 /home/gvijeeth/catalogs/store2 /cgi-bin/store2  /store2

Then I restart the interchange server. I could able to access the first store

i.e with www.domainname.com But when I try to access the second store

that is store2 by giving the url path http://www.domainname.com/cgi-bin/store2

Its giving me the error as undefined catalog.

My question is Whether Interchange using this FullURL yes option in cfg file

will support the multiple stores or catalogs on the same domainname  or not?

Thanks
