From my experience it should work even if the path is set to /eng/files…
I have another site on a network and the path to the images “http://www.juliecloutier.com/fr/files/2012/05/concours_fr.jpg” is reading the images in the “http://www.juliecloutier.com/wp-content/blogs.dir/2/files/2012/05/concours_fr.jpg”
Why is the groupeespaces site not working anymore it eludes me ? I tried creating a folder eng with the proper sub-folders inside with the images in the proper sub-folder but then the site ain’t working anymore because all it sees on upload is the eng folder and what is inside it.
Let me re-formulate my question, maybe I am not approaching this with the proper angle.
My problem is with the media library on the english site /eng. When I upload an image it create this path to it : /eng/files/2013/01/logoFPAV_eng_test2.jpg
The image won’t show up. Is it because the real link to it should be set to ? : /wp-content/blogs.dir/6/files/2013/01/logoFPAV_eng_test2.jpg
I am not sure because from my experience it should work even if the path is set to /eng/files… .
I have another site n a network and the path to the images “http://www.juliecloutier.com/fr/files/2012/05/concours_fr.jpg” is reading the images in the “http://www.juliecloutier.com/wp-content/blogs.dir/2/files/2012/05/concours_fr.jpg”
Should I change the path of the media library to reflect the real location of the images ? If so how can I do this ?

Now my problem is with the media library on the english site /eng. When I upload an image it create this path to it : http://www.groupeespaces.ca/eng/files/2013/01/logoFPAV_eng_test2.jpg
The image won’t show up because the real link to it should be set to : http://www.groupeespaces.ca/wp-content/blogs.dir/6/files/2013/01/logoFPAV_eng_test2.jpg
This is not wrong.

What’s in your .htaccess
My htaccess has this :
# BEGIN WordPress
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [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]
# END WordPress
Do you see anything wrong with it ?
When I click on this link : http://www.groupeespaces.ca/eng/files/2013/01/logoFPAV_eng_test2.jpg
it says error 404, page do not exist.
It seem it does not see that this is a repertory for images and I don’t see it either on my ftp.
I found the solution thank you ! It was not in my .hta files it was missing this line :
# uploaded files
RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?files/(.+) wp-includes/ms-files.php?file=$2 [L]
Now it is working.
Big thank you.
For those wondering why, it’s because he reinstalled, but originally had a pre 3.5 version of WP when installing Multisite.
This is a known hassle (sorry) because as of 3.5, you don’t need that line anymore (and your images are in a different folder entirely). So … yay, we get to ask ‘What version of WP were you running when you set up Multisite?’ now 😀
