    here is what I know after 7 complete uninstalls and starting all over.

    Always the same result with the subdomains. Admin can create pages and upload images to them and see them. Subdomains Can create pages but no uploads are visible.

    What I found out is that after you upload an image in a subdomain the links to it are broken, If you go into the editor part the image is broken until you click on the edit now button and then it is there. But the Thumbnail remains broken. If you look at the image link locations for the broken links and the image to be edited link they are different. I have tried to resolve this and it’s not happening.

    Any Ideas

  • Check your database in wp_#_options and see if they have a broken link pointing to the wrong place. You can access this also from the superadmin section with domain Mapping:

    WordPress MU Domain Mapping Pluggin

    Also make sure you have the blog.dir in the wp-content directory! That could be the problem!!

    The blogs.dir is in the right place but I will check the other out.

    Maybe I am not understanding something. Before I install the domian mapping. This is the way it works. I sign up under add new site sitename = jondoe

    jondoe now has a website at jondoe.gamepursuit.com is this right??

    If you followed:

    http://codex.wordpress.org/Create_A_Network

    and enabled subdomain which anything before the main domain then yes you would have a website for (whatever).gamepursuit.com. Does that answer your question??

    yes and that is what I did and wanted, but as I said earlier the the subdomains do not like where there images are…

    Please don’t muddy the issue with the domain mapping plugin – it’s completely irrelevant to the problem at hand and will not fix the issue.

    Read the sticky here in the multisite section. It covers it. Not a bug, but a server setup issue.

    I also talked about this recently on the weblog tools collection blog.

    Andrea, when you say it is a server setup issue are you talking in apache?

    Mod-rewrites is enabled. Or are you taking the ht access?

    Thread Starter eeeprom

    (@eeeprom)

    by the way here is my ht.access

    <Directory />
    AllowOverride All
    </Directory>

    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /
    RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L]
    # uploaded files
    RewriteRule ^files/(.+) wp-includes/ms-files.php?file=$1 [L]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
    RewriteRule ^ – [L]
    RewriteRule . index.php [L]

    I believe that Andrea is referring to this:

    “My subdomain sites don’t work, what did I do wrong?”

    Subdomain sites are managed on the server through the use of wildcards. This means that the server itself needs to have them set up in Apache, and will send any request for any subdomain, straight through to the WordPress network. Then WordPress will look it up on the database and serve the right content. You also need to have a wildcard subdomain record in your DNS records. It looks like this:
    in A * yourdomain.com.

    Also:

    Subdomain blogs/sites work on the premise of wildcard subdomains. these need to be enabled in both your DNS records and Apache. Please read the Codex page for setting up your network, especially the “Before you begin” section.

    thanks for the response. Wildcards are setup in both Apache and dns files.

    looking at how the image address is it really is like that the path is being pointed to a wrong place. If I put the right path directly into the web browser the images will show up. I don;t know if that info helps out or not

    I reinstalled

    the following is most definantly set up
    Mod-rewrite in Apache.
    Ht.access is setup to Allow All In Apache

    here is the Apache in the virtual server area
    <VirtualHost 67.41.83.60:80>
    ServerAdmin webmaster@gamepursuit.com
    DocumentRoot /virtuals/gamepursuit.com
    ServerName http://www.gamepursuit.com
    ServerAlias gamepursuit.com * gamepursuit.com
    ErrorLog logs/www.gamepursuit.com-error_log
    CustomLog logs/www.gamepursuit.com-access_log common
    </VirtualHost>
    DocumentRoot /virtuals/gamepursuit.com
    <VirtualHost *>
    <Directory /virtuals/gamepursuit.com>
    Options SymLinksIfOwnerMatch IncludesNoExec
    AllowOverride FileInfo Options
    AllowOverride All
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
    allow from all
    Options +Indexes
    </Directory>

    Here is my ht.acess

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

    And still the same. What am I doing wrong??

    (@eeeprom)

    I also am able to select what ever permalink option I use and still have access to all pages. I can edit pages but anytime I add images they will not show up. I get the red-xxxxx

    Again what am I missing??

    Your .htaccess is not the one for running a network. It has no line to do the image URL rewrite.

    Go look under tools -> Network. it gives you the full .htaccess file there to replace what you have.

    I no longer have a Network Icon after doing the install for multisite

    Put the first line back and you will.

    (I really need to change the instructions that say take it out…)
