Problems migrating Muti-site to local (Mac) (4 posts)

    I'm attempting to migrate a functioning multisite wordpress install (that uses subdomains) from a live server to my local computer to continue development.

    At this point, I've been able to access the front-end of the site on my local, but when I try to visit wp-admin, I get a Server Error (500).

    I had originally tried to follow the advice in http://wordpress.org/support/topic/wordpress-3-network-multisite-on-a-local-development-site but that approach didn't work for me, so I wanted to see if I could switch the subdomains to subfolders, which led me to http://wordpress.org/support/topic/changing-multi-site-from-sub-directory-to-sub-domain.

    I added the

    define( 'MULTISITE', true );
    define( 'SUBDOMAIN_INSTALL', false );

    that was recommended in that post, but that hasn't appeared to have any effect.

    Does anyone have experience doing this? Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated.

    Are you using MAMP?

    Nope, and it's OSX Lion, if that makes any difference.

    I'm using Lion, though with MAMP.

    That you can't get to wp-admin ... do you mean at ALL for any site, or for a subsite?
