WordPress 3.0 Multisite using sub-directories not creating

@troberts i tried this myself and it works for me on my server. other people are reporting a bug. If you want to go diving, see this post:
http://wordpress.org/support/topic/image-links-broken-un-wordpress-30-subdomain?replies=12#post-1646429

I asked my webhost to chceck if AllowOverride FileInfo options in vhost is set to ALL, but he answered I can activate this option on my own in .htaccess, and if I don’t know how to do that I shall browse Internet !!
As far as I understand I shall put this code into my .htacces
<Directory />
AllowOverride All
</Directory>

Am I right? If yes, in which line shall I put this code

Thanks for your answer

if i order Dreamhost PS, will MultiSite need more manual configurations ( like the samples above ) to work with subdomains?
or are these hacks for installs not hosted using PS hosting?

and will this plugin :
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wordpress-mu-domain-mapping/
allow me to manage the subdomains in a more user friendly way?

also can u recommend a BETTER host? that can handle 1000 WP MulitSite re-mapped subdomains?

thanks!

ok. i just setup WP 3 on their PS service..

and everything went smooth.. until i started to make a new SubDomain.
* the main domain works great.

but when i click on the new subdomain site i get a repeated url:
http://mysite2.convertmyflash.comconvertmyflash_com/
and it should be:
http://mysite2.convertmyflash.com/

my wp-config ( after the serial key code ):

//define('WP_ALLOW_MULTISITE', true);

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

/* Stop editing */

$server = DB_HOST;
$loginsql = DB_USER;
$passsql = DB_PASSWORD;
$base = DB_NAME;

define('ABSPATH', dirname(__FILE__).'/');

// Get everything else
require_once(ABSPATH.'wp-settings.php');
?>

i also tried commenting out :
'define( 'DOMAIN_CURRENT_SITE', 'convertmyflash.com' );'

and no luck!

please advise thanks!

FIXED!

basically it was Dreamhost’s fault.
all i needed to do is comment out this line in the wp-config.php

//$base = DB_NAME;

* i hope that doesnt affect any other WP features?
will it?

Hi,
I am having the same problem. I am on GoDaddy. Trying to use subdirectories. The WP install was over a month old but I changed the true to false in the config file.

Here’s the config:
‘define(‘WP_ALLOW_MULTISITE’, true);
define( ‘MULTISITE’, true );
define( ‘SUBDOMAIN_INSTALL’, false );
$base = ‘/’;
define( ‘DOMAIN_CURRENT_SITE’, ‘mysite.org’ );
define( ‘PATH_CURRENT_SITE’, ‘/’ );
define( ‘SITE_ID_CURRENT_SITE’, 1 );
define( ‘BLOG_ID_CURRENT_SITE’, 1 );
‘

Here’s the .htaccess:

‘# BEGIN WordPress
<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>
# END WordPress

‘

All the admin panels get set up and emails get sent but I get a 404 error.
I added the
‘<Directory />
AllowOverride All
</Directory>
‘
to the top of the .htaccess and then got a misconfiguration error so I had to remove it.

Is there any further help on this issue?

Thanks.

@ninaj – go back to the admin menu for networks and get the NEW htaccess code for the different format you switched to.

I tried adding this to my .htaccess file:
”<Directory />
AllowOverride All
</Directory>’

And it causes an internal server error.

That has absolutely nothing to do with multisite.

So when I click on Tools > Network the system gives me a warning that a network has already been detected on my site. But I don’t have any super admin menu access to my network.

Look in the database for these tables:

wp_blogs
wp_blog_versions
wp_registration_log
wp_signups
wp_site
wp_sitemeta

If they ARE there, that’s why it’s detecting an exisiting network.

Try resaving the permalinks on one of the subsites.
