Thanks a lot Tomas, this has cleared things up a lot. First let me congratulate you and the team/community for an excellent product, I am looking forward to using it in our company and once I understand things I hope I can provide some useful contributions.
I have got my mini-farm working now, except I still can only select the main admin wiki using the IP address. It is running inside a private network, I have added entries in the DNS to point to the server IP address and these resolve correctly when I ping them, or nslookup. Entries are (A) main.mydomain.local -> 192.168.x.x (CNAME) projects.mydomain.local -> main.mydomain.local The setup I have is; 1. Main wiki Domain names: 'localhost', 'main.mydomain.local' 2. Template Domain names: 'templatexe.template.local' 3. Project management wiki: 'projects.mydomain.local' When I hit http://projects/xwiki I get the projects wiki, excellent! When I hit http:/main/xwiki I get the redirect The only way to get to main is http://192.168.x.x/xwiki at the moment this is OK I guess but I would like to understand why this happens as it might point to something else wrong. Also since the installation the main wiki has links for 'Calendar' and 'Photo Albums' but these have a '?' and the pages don't exist. Is this normal, or does it point to something else wrong? Any ideas?
