Multisite istallation Error 404

Hi Mika,

Thanks for your reply. The contents of the .htaccess file are:

# Added by Surftown to prevent brute force attack against wp-login.php
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
	RewriteEngine on
	RewriteCond %{REQUEST_METHOD} POST
	RewriteCond %{HTTP_COOKIE} !^.*wordpress_test_cookie.*$ [NC]
	RewriteRule wp-login.php  - [F,L]
</IfModule>

# BEGIN WordPress

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]

# add a trailing slash to /wp-admin
RewriteRule ^wp-admin$ wp-admin/ [R=301,L]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
RewriteRule ^ - [L]
RewriteRule ^(wp-(content|admin|includes).*) $1 [L]
RewriteRule ^(.*\.php)$ $1 [L]
RewriteRule . index.php [L]

# END WordPress

Hi Mika,

I’ve just removed all the reference to Surftown and left:

# BEGIN WordPress

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]

# add a trailing slash to /wp-admin
RewriteRule ^wp-admin$ wp-admin/ [R=301,L]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
RewriteRule ^ - [L]
RewriteRule ^(wp-(content|admin|includes).*) $1 [L]
RewriteRule ^(.*\.php)$ $1 [L]
RewriteRule . index.php [L]

# END WordPress

But still the same result: Error 404: File Not Found

Hi Mika,

Sorry I’ll use the code tags in future. The 404 error I get when trying to get the new site dashboard is server based see: http://preston.lancashireprimarycoaching.co.uk/wp-admin/

However when I try to ‘visit site’ it’s the standard Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage

Thanks for your help Mika, I’ll get on to them.
