    For some reason the activation links in the e-mails sent to newly registered users doesn't work and always comes up; "The page cannot be displayed".
    Can anyone please advise me on where to look at fixing this. Cheers

    I am also having an issue with my activation email. After I create a new blog an email is sent, but it is tossing the word BASE in the url.

    so the domain looks like this:
    http://domain.comBASEblogname

    not sure where to look for this. the .htaccess looks fine as does the httpd.conf setup. i have searched around the forums and nobody is having this exact issue so any help would be great.

    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /

    # Rewrite http://www.domain.com to domain.com
    RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.(.*)
    RewriteRule ^(.*) http://%1/$1 [R,L]

    #uploaded files
    RewriteRule ^(.*)?/?files/(.*) wp-content/blogs.php?file=$2 [L]

    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
    RewriteRule . - [L]
    RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?(wp-.*) $2 [L]
    RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?(.*\.php)$ $2 [L]
    RewriteRule . index.php [L]

    You probably had BASE in there when you installed WPMu. You're going to have to poke around the databases and find where it's used and edit teh records. Either that or delete and reinstall.

    I've been digging into this. In wp-config.php, this works:
    /* Stop editing */
    define('ABSPATH', dirname(__FILE__).'/');
    require_once(ABSPATH.'wp-settings.php');
    $base = '/';

    this does not:
    /* Stop editing */
    define('ABSPATH', dirname(__FILE__).'/');
    $base = '/';
    require_once(ABSPATH.'wp-settings.php');

    So it looks like something in wp-settings.php changes $base back to BASE. I've no idea what, though. Could it be a PHP5 issue? I"m still digging. I've also looked through the database and changed all instances of BASE to /, but that was mostly bad blog requests.

    Looks like anarchy_media_player.php has something to do with it.

    actually I"m not sure about that. It's definetly some plug-in, but the anarchy one is the first one I've disabled.
