Okay, that’s ‘good’. Or rather that means Multisite isn’t working at all, so that’s why the 404.
Go into your server via FTP and make sure that the folder for /network/ is in there.
Should be
/wordpress/
/wordpress/wp-admin/
/wordpress/wp-admin/network/
Oh… do I just create that?
No!
I’m asking if they’re there 🙂 It’s a yes or no answer 😉
okay, I went in, and it is there.
Not Found
The requested URL /wp-admin/network was not found on this server.
Apache/2.2.22 (Ubuntu) Server at domain.com Port 80
Okay that error says it’s not… SOmething’s not right if the .htaccess isn’t working. The changes you made before, putting RewriteRule ./wordpress/index.php in, should never be needed.
But you can’t get to the network, so let’s undo this change and see if you can get in?
hmmm… I’m gonna take a look at .htaccess then.
My .htaccess looks like:
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /wordpress/
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).*) $1 [L]
RewriteRule ^[_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/(.*\.php)$ $1 [L]
RewriteRule . index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
Also, my network folder contains the following:
about.php plugin-editor.php site-new.php themes.php
admin.php plugin-install.php site-settings.php update-core.php
credits.php plugins.php sites.php update.php
edit.php profile.php site-themes.php upgrade.php
freedoms.php settings.php site-users.php user-edit.php
index.php setup.php theme-editor.php user-new.php
menu.php site-info.php theme-install.php users.php
I feel like the error is due to something so small, because I can even edit the site and add users, but I can’t access the site dashboard, or visit the sites (404 error). Same problem with adding pages to the wordpress main site (domain.com/wordpress), I can edit and add pages, but I can’t see them. It’s as if everything is working, but something is off?
That’s definitely the right .htaccess for Multisite Subfolders.
You could try manually re-uploading the WP files from a fresh download… Something really is off, but I can’t think of what.
Actually, I probably should. Because it’s something, but I can’t see what it could be. Luckily, it’s only a test site, so I can trash it whenever, so better now than further delay.
Thanks so much for your help!
Oh a manual re-upload won’t hurt anythig, but if it’s a test site, start over. Something went bibbeldy :/
I’ve had installs just NOT work and I’m sure it’s cause I did something dumb, but I can never sort it out.
