I have two project one main project which is running fine but now i want to run another cakephp project on the same domain.

So you are in the write place this tutorial will help you to run a cakephp on a sub domain

1. First you have change the .htaccess on /httpdocs/

   
   RewriteEngine on
   RewriteBase /
   RewriteRule    ^$ cake_sub_project/app/webroot/    [L]
   RewriteRule    (.*) cake_sub_project/app/webroot/$1 [L]
   
   

   This two new line needs to add on your main .htaccess file. Here "cake_sub_project" is the sub project

   RewriteRule    ^$ cake_sub_project/app/webroot/    [L]
   RewriteRule    (.*) cake_sub_project/app/webroot/$1 [L]
   

Now goto your sub folder and make sure you have changed the .htacces on the following directory.

    cake_sub_project/
    cake_sub_project/app
    cake_sub_project/webroot

    RewriteRule    ^$ app/webroot/    [L]
    RewriteRule    (.*) app/webroot/$1 [L]
