   Hi
   I have a blog at http://www.crankup.net

   I installed another WP at wwwroot/cg (with diff table prefix etc)

   When I try to open http://www.cg.crankup.net it gets redirected to http://www.crankup.net

   but http://www.crankup.net/cg takes me to the new blog which is correct.
   I am sure similar question was posted earlier but none of it helped me...

   note: all other subdomains (without wp) works fine
   Any idea?

   I'd make sure your sub-domain is pointing to the 'web-root' folder you are using (i.e. cg).

   Put the script from Finding_Server_Info in that sub-domains' web-root folder and see what happens when you browse to http://www.cg.crankup.net/testphp.php

   Thank u for your reply. here is what I get http://codegeeks.crankup.net/test.php

   codegeeks is the subdomain (folder)

   So what is the difference between the wp-config.php file that resides in the codegeeks folder (wwwroot/codegeeks/wp-config.php) and the wp-config.php file that resides in the web-root folder for your 'main domain (wwwroot/wp-config.php)?

   Also make sure you have backups of your database(s) before proceeding!

   Might also make sure an .htaccess file isn't causing a problem.

   table prefix is different... for both ..

   I am not sure whether .htaccess is issue here..

   # BEGIN WordPress
   <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
   RewriteEngine On
   RewriteBase /
   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
   RewriteRule . /index.php [L]

   # END WordPress

   is what is have now!

   I'm sure MichaelH is more familiar with this stuff than I am. But I suppose that's usually what happens if you pull the database from one WP installation and use it with another WP installation.

   Are you sure you've set up a sub-domain and not just a folder within your current domain? A sub domain has to be registered with your hosting providers domain name servers, which can take some time to propagate.

   If I visit http://www.cg.crankup.net I am not redirected.

   Is this resolved?
