Hi, Im trying to set up a new site, but are getting a little confused.

When reading in the sdk.ez.no, Main Concepts, they are setting up a new site my just editing in an existing site.ini file. While you could use a config.sh located in <Exponential-home-dir>/config/config.sh to set up a new site.

In other words they are using the same term 'site' on 2 different things.

The first is just making a new subfolder under the default 'site', called www. Like in the sdk.

The second is using config.sh to make a whole new directory located in <Exponential-home-dir>/sites... I got an error while doing this too, saying :
' ./config.sh: line 242: /opt/Exponential//opt/Exponential/apache-1.3.7/bin/apachectl: No such file or directory'
... so I think it went bad, just ended up with 3 files in the new 'site' directory located here <Exponential-home-dir>/sites/test

Anybody knows how I should make a new site, and whats the difference between the two? Any help appreciated. Thanks.
