Dashboard not available for subsite

    Hi

    I’m new to WP but am trying to learn. The situation is as follows.

    I have WP installed on a local server
    It’s installed in a subdirectory as I also have other apps installed (Gallery3/ownCloud)
    It’s externally accessed by IP address
    When the IP updates I lose the CSS and access to the Dashboard but can fix it by editing the MySQL database directly
    The install seemed to take a while
    The old site is functional but when I created a new subsite the new site doesn’t seem to pick up the CSS and I can’t get to the Dashboard. Of course I forgot to write down the error but it was along the lines of the address was not correct (it wasn’t a 404 – not found error)
    I have checked the database for the subsite and the address entries seem correct.

    I assume I’m using the latest version as I tried to update a week or so ago and it said it was up to date.

    any help would be appreciated.

    ta

    The problem appears to have been created because I have deleted and recreated the same folder a number of times when using WordPress. I was under the impression that deleting the folder and database were enough to remove WP but if I reinstall with the same folder name I get this error.

    If I use a new folder name I don’t get this error. I haven’t tried deleting it and then restarting httpd (apache) yet to see if that is the issue but it seems strange that using the same folder name would create an issue.

    If anyone can shed some light on it I’d love to know why.
