  • Problems:
  • Per my understanding, addon domain system will redirect any access of the addon domain: http://www.mysite.com to the sub-directory:
-> /home/mysite/public_html/mac
-> and rewrite the URL as: http://www.Mysite.com
and NOT http://www.Mysite.com/mac
  • This prevent me to access the application install at:
-> /home/mysite/public_html/macg2
-> using the URL: http://www.Mysite.com/macg2


  • Solution:
  • Create a symbolic link of macg2 under mac using the CronJob command:
-> ln -s /home/mysite/public_html/macg2 /home/mysite/public_html/mac
-> then macg2 will be accessed as if it is /home/mysite/public_html/mac/macg2
-> which means "macg2" can be accesses by http://mysite.com/macg2
