    hi

    i would to install on dev server a multisite/multiDB wordpress…i’ve enabled virtual host on apache server, but when i go to site1.dev there is nothing because wp is not install, and if i try site1.dev/install.php go to a error 500.
    i created a new website but underscore are not allowed, and i dont found the folder indicate by WP like 192.136.58.230/wordpress/newwebsite..
    so i’m searching a tuto or explaination on how to do that working…and general information on multisite WP,because i’m using drual too, and it works different but i can do that on drupal,i think i can do that too with wp..

    thanks

    Well.If you use WP to create a network, you’ll solve THAT problem, so then you can turn on MultiDB or SharDB or HyperDB whatever you want.

    You have to install wordpress first. THEN you enable multisite.

    THEN if you’re using multidb you go follow the instructions from the people you got it from.

    multi DB seem to be very complicated…so i go to try to work on a single DB but with virtualhost,here i’ve some questions:

    actually i’ve this on my host file:

    <VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost
DocumentRoot /var/www/wordpress[b]/???[/b]
ServerName wordpress.dev
ServerAlias *.wordpress.dev
RewriteEngine On
RewriteOptions inherit
</VirtualHost>

    what is the folder to point ?
    do i need the sub folder option or the sub domain option in wp-settings ?

    actually the website is duplicate in 3 same one..
    thanks

    If you’re on local host, you need to pick subfolders because wildcards don’t work locally.

    Are you asking what folder you need to install in?

    DocumentRoot /var/www/wordpress/
    ServerName wordpress.dev

    Because that would be the one.
