 +Demian has spent some time testing VuFind multisite scenarios (host-based and directory-based) and discovered that configuration for the directory-based scenario is more complex than anticipated.  A workaround has been posted in the [[installation:installing_multiple_instances|documentation]], but a better solution is needed.  Benjamin offered to take a look at this.
