# Multi Site Uploads Not Working

 * Running WordPress on Windows Server 2003 and IIS 6 using the Ionic ISAPI Rewrite.
   Single site working marvelously.
 * Fired up network and install went fine, added domain mapping and all is good 
   except any media I upload is lost. Here’s a link…
 * [http://www.designgadget.com](http://www.designgadget.com)
 * The file is there and I can find it it in the blogs.dir folder, etc. For example
   an image uploaded says it should live at:
 * [http://www.designgadget.com/files/2012/03/design-gadget_div1.png](http://www.designgadget.com/files/2012/03/design-gadget_div1.png)
 * It’s indeed in the blogs.dir/3/files folder.
 * But I cannot see the image via the browser unless I go through the dashboard’s
   Media and click edit. I’ve already checked permissions and tried a couple of 
   config tricks. Any suggestions?

 * Yippee!
 * My simple mistake: after setting up Ionic ISAPI Rewrite for my main site and 
   testing I proceeded to set up the network, then domain mapping.
 * When the network install gave me the .htaccess rules for the network I <b>added
   </b> them to the .ini file that runs the rewrite. Doh!
 * So basically I had the standalone rules followed by the network rules.
 * Once I realized they were saying similar things I removed the original rewrite
   block and everything worked!
