  • Thank you Spaanem!!! You’ve just made my life a LOT better!!!

    I realize that this is likely too late to help you, but for all those people that end up here, as I did, looking for an answer…

    If you install wordpress in your server root, and suddenly files that are in already-existing directories are returning 403 errors, go into that subdirectory, create an .htaccess file and type this in it:

    RewriteEngine off

    For example, my domain had an images folder in the subdomain. I installed WP and all the images from that directory were forbidden. I stuck an .htaccess file in the “images” directory, and then life was golden.

    Using WordPressMU

    I changed the “admin” account in mysql to “wp_admin” and I was able to log in, but the tab for “Site Admin” disappeared. I confirmed that the other administrator accounts don’t have that tab either. I changed the account back to “admin” in mysql, relogged in, and the tab re-appears.

    Only when the account is specifically called “admin” can I get that tab.

    How can I change the admin account per the instructions in the Codex in WordPress MU and still be able to access all the admin functionality?

    I am having the same problem. I have verified that the mysql user has full access to the database, I’ve changed the mysql user password repeatedly to ensure the password I’m typing into the config file is correct.

    This is a fresh install of the program, not an upgrade.

    MySQL 4.1.22
    php 5.2.0

    Have you been able to solve this problem?
