Thanks for your time Massimo. I didn't know about multi-tenancy in web2py, I've just read a little about that. However I think it's not what I need in this case (but I've just read about multi-tenancy).
Let me give some additional details of my case regarding databases (I realised that I didn't mention it in the previous post): Each domain uses its own database. Each domain serves two applications. This two applications share the same database , through symlinks the following folders: databases, models and private. So in web2py/applications/ I would have: ... panel1/ panel1/databases/ panel1/models/ panel1/private/ site1/ site1/databases --> symlink to ../panel1/databases site1/models --> symlink to ../panel1/models site1/private --> symlink to ../panel1/models ... and the same structure repeats itself for site2, site3, etc. A new site is added from time to time. Then I would like each domain accesses applications like this: http://site1.dev/ ---> /site1/default/index http://site1.dev/panel ---> /panel1/default/index http://site1.dev/panel/default/user/login ---> /panel1/default/user/login http://site2.dev/ ---> /site2/default/index http://site2.dev/panel ---> /panel2/default/index http://site2.dev/panel/default/user/login ---> /panel2/default/user/login So, each domain (each pair of "siteX" and "panelX" applications) will have its own database, with its own users and permissions. I don't know if this info helps or I've missed the point somewhere :P 2015-04-15 10:51 GMT-03:00 Massimo Di Pierro <massimo.dipie...@gmail.com>: > Did you look into multi tenancy in web2py? > > You can use routes to map the domain into applications but do not use it > to map domains.
