subdirectory install - 404 not found (7 posts)

    I am trying to set up a developer install on my home computer. Everything went fine, except when I attempt to access my added blogs, I get a 404 error. I can get to my front page blog just fine, and my 2 secondary blogs are created in the database. A check of the database shows correct paths. Everything looks like it should work, but I just can't access the blogs I created. htaccess appears to be as it should.

    Does anyone have any ideas why WPMU isn't serving up those blogs?

    We need more info on your home computer setup. What are you running for an OS? What Web server?

    It is quite possible that mod_rewrite is not working, but we need more info first.

    I am using Mac Leopard with Apache2, php 5, mysql 5.
    I have mod-rewrite enabled in Apache2, although I am not sure how to test whether or not it's working.

    Check the permalinks on the main blog. If you can see the About page and the Hello world post, then it's working.

    Thanks! Mod_rewrite was not properly enabled for the user directory! I got it working, now.

    "AllowOverride FileInfo Options"

    Needs to be in the vhost entry in apache for your web account.
