    Hello!

    I am trying to install WordPress Multisite with sub-domains for a company Intranet page. I am using LAMP, Ubuntu Server 14 LTS (VMWare VM).

    Steps I have taken:

    Deactivated all Plugins
    Set Permalinks to Default (Pretty Permalinks do work, so I think that means mod_rewrite is enabled)
    WordPress/Site Address is http://192.168.1.96
    /var/www/html/wp-config.php backed up
    /var/www/html/.htaccess backed up

    Added line to /etc/apache2/sites-available/000-default.conf (I think this is the wildcard DNS entry)
    ServerAlias *.192.168.1.96

    Added lines to /var/www/html/wp-config.php just above /*That’s all, stop editing! Happy blogging. */
    /* Multisite */
    define( ‘WP_ALLOW_MULTISITE’, true );

    Signed into /wp-admin/ > Tools > Network Setup

    This is where I am stuck: “Because your install is in a directory, the sites in your WordPress network must use sub-directories.”

    Is this saying I need to move my sites into their own directories in /var/www/html/?
