Failed to convert to multisite

(@catalinsendsms)

I tried to set-up a multisite WordPress installation but somehow I failed. The main site works but any subsite does not. I get this error:

The requested URL /wordpress/en was not found on this server.

This is in my wp-config.php


define( 'WP_DEBUG', false );

define('WP_ALLOW_MULTISITE', true);

define('MULTISITE', true);
define('SUBDOMAIN_INSTALL', false);
define('DOMAIN_CURRENT_SITE', 'ip'); //here is the ip of my server, i hided it for //security reasons
define('PATH_CURRENT_SITE', '/wordpress/');
define('SITE_ID_CURRENT_SITE', 1);
define('BLOG_ID_CURRENT_SITE', 1);

and this is my .htaccess


RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule .* - [E=HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%{HTTP:Authorization}]
RewriteBase /wordpress/
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]

# add a trailing slash to /wp-admin
RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?wp-admin$ $1wp-admin/ [R=301,L]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
RewriteRule ^ - [L]
RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?(wp-(content|admin|includes).*) $2 [L]
RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?(.*\.php)$ $2 [L]
RewriteRule . index.php [L]

The main site works but any subsite does not.

Kindly check and confirm if the INNER pages of the main site also work (not just the homepage).

Nope, no page works. No matter where it is

Then that’s a PERMALINK issue.

If you’re running Apache webserver, kindly confirm that you have the mod_rewrite module enabled. This is needed before the .htaccess rules (and hence permalinks) will work.

If you’re using Nginx, kindle note that Nginx doesn’t recognize or use Apache’s .htaccess rules. In that case, you’ll need to implement the equivalent Nginx rules (Google will be your best resource here).

I am using apache and I already did what you are suggesting. This is the line that corresponds to mod_rewrite from: /etc/httpd/conf.modules.d/00-base.conf

Can you please run a phpinfo() from your WordPress directory to CONFIRM the module is indeed loaded in the live environment?

As you can see, mod_rewrite is there.

Ignore the em tags, I wanted to make it more visible. I had no idea that it does not work inside the code block
