wrong paths on multi website magento install

I am running a magento 1.7.0.2 instance with WAMP 2.1 on Windows 7. My goal is to set up one magento store, and one I followed the tutorial described here and I setup website profi on a subdirectory, but when I accessed the frontend on http://localhost/profi/ the first thing I noticed that the images paths were broken.

Broken: http://localhost/bms/profi/skin/frontend/default/default/images/logo.gif

Correct: http://localhost/bms/skin/frontend/default/default/images/logo.gif

This is the same for the JS & CSS files. I've made the following modifications to the index.php file in the profi folder:

$mageFilename = MAGENTO_ROOT . '../../app/Mage.php';
/* Store or website code */
$mageRunCode = isset($_SERVER['MAGE_RUN_CODE']) ? $_SERVER['MAGE_RUN_CODE'] : 'profi';

/* Run store or run website */
$mageRunType = isset($_SERVER['MAGE_RUN_TYPE']) ? $_SERVER['MAGE_RUN_TYPE'] : 'website';

It was a matter of configuring the second website's URLs.

I went to System > Configuration > General > Web > Unsecure. The Base URL was http://localhost/profi/ and I added ../ to the following the following:

  • Base Skin URL: {{unsecure_base_url}}../skin/
  • Base Media URL: {{unsecure_base_url}}../media/
  • Base JavaScript URL: {{unsecure_base_url}}../media/

That did the trick. I see on the frontend everything looks in order. Hope I won't run into anymore problems with this set-up.
