Hello Edwin,

I have a problem with article sharing. If I want to display an article from the masters database in a slavesite, then instead of showing the article I choose from the master_db , the slavesite displays the article form its own database with the same id nr.

I have removed jms from the slavesite to prevent somebody messing about with it. Is that the reason?

Best regards,

First normally JMS should not be installed in a slave site.
So the fact that you have uninstalled JMS in the slave site should not change anything.

With which version are you using JMS 1.1.x or the JMS 1.2.x ?

The articles sharing could (perhaps) display the current websites article if it can not retreive the DB connection information of the "target" site ID.
Amoung the possible reason why it can not retreive the information could be due to a permission issue.

Hello Edwin,

I use jms 1.2. I use different databases for different sites with the same prefix (all b93_).
All the databases have the same database user.

Also the user has create_view rights.

So i do not really understand why shared articles are found in the wrong database (see first post).

When you say permissions could be the problem, do you mean database user permissions or file permissions?

Concerning the permission, I just mean that the "Article Sharing" can not access the /multisites directory where is defined the slave site defintion and after that is not able to access the appropriate "configuration.php" where is defined the DB connection.

So if the URL is correct and that you have the "site ID" present then the "Articles Sharing" should be able to retreive the DB connection info in the files on the disk.
If for any reason it is not ablle to read teh "configuration.php" file, it will keep its current website DB connection.

User database has all permissions. Changing file permissions of configuration.php to 777 makes no difference. I still get the local article, not the article of the master database.

The link looks like this:
fodbold.testb93.dk/index.php?option=com_...;id=17&Itemid=53 .

The site id of the master site is indeed :master_db: .

What can I try to do to remedy this:

Unstall and reinstall article sharing.

Could it be because the master sites articles cannot be used? Would it then be helpfull to
set up a special slavesite for articles which I like to use in the other slavesites?

Any help is appreciated, because I dread the thougt to have to maintain common articles in all sites.

Best regards,

I don't think that uninstall / re-install will change something.

All I see when I use the URL that you provide here it that you have correctly the site ID present and when I go on this URL, you have a redirection to a login form.
