Hi webmasters, I'm trying to make 4 websites to use the same cgi-bin dir, all of them under Cpanel.
I solved this using symbolic links on the server but this is kinda tricky when I do backups.
The reason for this is: one website (domain) holds the cgi-bin folder with a main app while the other 4 websites (domains and-or subdomains) call the same folder so I end up with only ONE cgi-bin folder AND only one source code to mantain. The app is already working differencing the data and querys from diff sites. I just got tired of upgrading and updating every single website (and is going to grow some more with more websites).
My concerns are:
- This is working already but zip backups do not work, only tarballs. Restoring might be tricky sometimes.
- Having a solution via htaccess would be great as it would be a single file, right?
- Having a htaccess solution would mean problems if I move to another server NOT running apache?
Thanks in advance, I researched but my htaccess is limited, made tests but it doesn't appear to work outside its own top level once a domain is involved.
