Unless you have DNS set up for your stores' URLs, you must add a static route to the host in your hosts file:

1. Locate your operating system's hosts file.

2. Add the static route in the format:

   <ip address> french.mysite.mg
   <ip address> german.mysite.mg
   

3. Go to one of the following URLs in your browser:

   http://mysite.mg/admin
   http://french.mysite.mg/frenchstoreview
   http://german.mysite.mg/germanstoreview
   

You're done!

• Additional tasks might be required to deploy multiple websites in a hosted environment; check with your hosting provider for more information.
• Additional tasks are required to set up {{site.data.var.ece}}; for more information, see [Set up multiple Cloud websites or stores]({{ page.baseurl }}/cloud/project/project-multi-sites.html)

Troubleshooting

• If your French and German sites return 404s but your Admin loads, make sure you completed [Step 6: Add the store code to the base URL]({{ page.baseurl }}/config-guide/multi-site/ms_websites.html#multi-storecode-baseurl).
• If all URLs return 404s, make sure you restarted your web server.
• If the Magento Admin doesn't function properly, make sure you set up your virtual hosts properly.
