• I am running WordPress 4.4.2 network and I have two sites configured for subdomains and running fine. I added a new site using the “new Site” tool on the network dashboard. When trying to access the new site index.php, wp-admin.php, wp-login.php, etc. it tries to download instead of loading the page.
    Here is my .htaccess file

    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]
    php_value upload_max_filesize 64M
    php_value post_max_size 64M
    php_value max_execution_time 200
    php_value max_input_time 200

    I am not running any caching plugins. I have wordfence installed, but I tried disabling that too and nothing has worked.

    The plugins installed are:
    add from server
    are you a robot?
    backWPup
    Code Embed
    Embed any Document
    Enhanced Media Library
    FAst Secure Contact Form
    Hellow Dolly
    Namaste LMS
    TM Replace Howdy
    Watu
    Wordfence Security
    WP RSS Aggregator
    WPtouch mobile plugin
    YouTube Embed WpDevArt.

    I´ve tried deactivating all of them, to no effect.

    The site is installed in the root html folder and I´ve checked all subdirectories and there is no other .htaccess file on the server.
