# Multisite index.php not Redirecting

 * Hello,
 * I have a strange problem with my multisite setup:
    [http://applebun.com](http://applebun.com)–
   My original page works 100% [http://sg.multisite.com](http://sg.multisite.com)–
   My new multisite does not open the index.php but shows the standard Apache error
   instead. However, **all subpages (like posts, admin dashboard etc) are working
   perfectly fine**.
 * I have done pretty much everything as required for multisites to work:
    – DNS
   Wildcard is configured, working (*.applebun.com) and pointin at the public html
   folder where wordpress is installed – wp-config, htaccess are configured as required–
   Blog Directory has been created in wp-content
 * Again, I can access [http://sg.applebun.com/wp-admin](http://sg.applebun.com/wp-admin)
   and every single page on that site as well, for example [http://sg.applebun.com/2012/05/09/test/](http://sg.applebun.com/2012/05/09/test/)
 * Even if i call [http://sg.applebun.com/index.php](http://sg.applebun.com/index.php)
   directly -> goes to [http://sg.applebun.com](http://sg.applebun.com) -> goes 
   to [http://sg.applebun.com/cgi-sys/defaultwebpage.cgi](http://sg.applebun.com/cgi-sys/defaultwebpage.cgi)
 * This is my htaccess code:
 *     ```
       #Made Multi-Site with Multi-Site Enabler 1.5#
       <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
       RewriteEngine On
       RewriteBase /
       RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
   
       # uploaded files
       RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?files/(.+) wp-includes/ms-files.php?file=$2 [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]
       </IfModule>

       define ('MULTISITE', '1');
       define ('SUBDOMAIN_INSTALL', '1');
       define ('DOMAIN_CURRENT_SITE', 'applebun.com');
       define ('PATH_CURRENT_SITE', '/');
       define ('SITE_ID_CURRENT_SITE', 1);
       define ('BLOG_ID_CURRENT_SITE', 1);
       $base = '/';
       ```

 * I visited your main site, applebun.com, worked fine.

 * How do you have your plugins set up? Is this your own theme?
 * You may have to put in a try – catch routine if it is.
