title: Create Drupal 8 Multisite on localhost
body: <p>I want to create a multisite Drupal 8 site.  I would like to keep the default site, and then add another site.  This is all being done on a WAMP stack and is on a locahost. These are the steps I have taken, but have not worked:</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li><p>Downloaded most recent Drupal 8 and unzipped (and moved files) to www/my_primary_site</p></li>
  <li><p>I created two databases in MySQL:  site1, site2</p></li>
  <li><p>in the www/my_primary_site/sites folder, I did the following:</p>
  
  <p>a.  Created a folder called "my_second_site"</p>
  
  <p>b.  Created a file called sites.php.</p>
  
  <p>c.  In sites.php, I have this code: </p>
  
  <pre><code>  $sites = array(
      '8080.localhost.my_primary_site' =&gt; 'default',
      '8080.localhost.my_primary_site/my_second_site' =&gt; 'my_second_site',
    );
  </code></pre></li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>I then go to localhost/my_primary_site.  This brings me to the Drupal install (localhost/my_primary_site/core/install.php).  But, if I go to localhost/my_primary_site/my_second_site, it just redirects me back to localhost/my_primary_site/core/install.php.</p>
  
  <p>I would expect that the second link would take me to a different install path.  Is this correct?  If not, how would I fix this?</p>
  
  <p>thanks
  jason</p>
