URL issues on bluehost

I have two Symphony powered sites running on BlueHost. I’ll call them main and sub. Their URLs are http://main.com and http://main.com/sub, respectively. Neither of these produce the problem you describe. Following this approach your URLs would be http://parentsite.com and http://parentsite.com/mysite. If this is not what you want, I’d suggest calling BlueHost support.
Hmmm, well how did you go about registering the domain for the “sub” site? I think what my client had done is created the “addon” domain and then attached the domain name mysite.com to that.
I technically see no difference between addon domains and subdomains with how bluehost is set up.
I didn’t register it at all. I just added it as a sub-directory to public_html. The only registered domain is http://main.com. (The real sites are http://carsonsasser.com/ and http://carsonsasser.com/reunion/)
Okay, I will look into it more, thanks for your help. Once I figure it out I’ll try and make a note to come back here and post the solution.

I am setting up a site on behalf of a client using bluehost. This domain is not their primary domain instead it is an “addon” domain, which essentially works as a subdomain which you attach a domain name (mysite.com) to.
After migrating symphony everything seems to be in working order, except when clicking on links. In my source, all the URLS display correctly as mysite.com/page/. But whenever a link is clicked, like in the navigation it’s getting redirected to mysite.parentsite.com/page/.
I don’t know enough about server configurations or htaccess to figure this one out and the few things I’ve tried don’t seem to work.
Anyone with a little more experience have some ideas?
