 * [13 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/multisite-server-error/)
 * I am setting up a WordPress 3 MultiSite network.
 * The install went OK and I can view the SuperAdmin Screen. I can also add new 
   sites (i’ve added two. There is no content or postings as of yet. I am just trying
   to test the structure.
 * I can view the main site OK, but when I click on either new sites, I get an INTERNAL
   SERVER ERROR:
 * > Internal Server Error
   > The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable
   > to complete your request.
   > Please contact the server administrator, [webmaster@amnesiacreativa.giorgioguzzetta.net](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/multisite-server-error/webmaster@amnesiacreativa.giorgioguzzetta.net?output_format=md)
   > and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have
   > done that may have caused the error.
   > More information about this error may be available in the server error log.
   > Additionally, a 500 Internal Server Error error was encountered while trying
   > to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

 * This was the first time I am using multisite and probably I did something wrong
   I am not aware of! any suggestions?

 * thanks for the reply
 * yes, the main one works fine. but the new site, such as amnesiacreativa.giorgioguzzetta.
   net/research
    or amnesiacreativa.giorgioguzzetta.net/teaching do not work
 * Here is my wp-config.php
 *     ```
       define('WP_ALLOW_MULTISITE', true);
   
       define('MULTISITE', true);
       define('SUBDOMAIN_INSTALL', false);
       $base = '/';
       define('DOMAIN_CURRENT_SITE', 'www.amnesiacreativa.giorgioguzzetta.net');
       define('PATH_CURRENT_SITE', '/');
       define('SITE_ID_CURRENT_SITE', 1);
       define('BLOG_ID_CURRENT_SITE', 1);
   
       /* That's all, stop editing! Happy blogging. */
       ```

 * Two things: Please use the code tags in the future 🙂 Also? Do not ever EVER 
   post your hashes and salts. They need to be secret.
 * Now.
 * Your MAIN site is **www**.amnesiacreativa.giorgioguzzetta.net
 * And thats a problem. Never use www like this. It should always be amnesiacreativa.
   giorgioguzzetta.net (or giorgioguzzetta.net), but never use the www. It can cause
   these errors.
 * Undo Multisite (it’s brand new and nothing works, so you won’t lose anything).
   Start over, and this time, make 100% sure you _do not_ use www.
