Hi,
I clicked the create blog menu and typed the blog domain name -> models.modelsorg.com
The blog link was created but when you click the domain it says "Address Not Found"
I have WPMU/BP 2.6.5 installed.
I hope you can help me resolve this problem.
You didn't follow all the directions in the readme.
MU works on *wildcard* subdomains. this means you have to change a setting in Apache on the server, so anysubdomain.atyourdomain.com goes to MU.

I think he is saying that the subdomains are not even CREATED, which is the same issue I am having any idea anybody?
Same thing. WPMU does not create subdomains. The name lives in the database.
The server works its magic through *wildcard* subdomains. these need to be set up both through Apache and the DNS records. Not MU.
Not doing either of these things results in that error.

is what I have in my httpd.conf , but still not working----
Marco
ServerAlias bloggingforex.net *.bloggingforex.net
is what it should read.
Did you add a wildcard subdomain in your DNS records as well?

the DNS is taken care of, just a question (I am not a tech) this is on a dedicated machine with several domains, do I change the individual site http.include file??
Thx

not sure if it could have any relevance, but I am on a machine with plesk, any idea?
"do I change the individual site http.include file?"
Yes, because that is where that domain's information is.

not sure if this is asking too much... but could I send you the file , as I really can't understand how to go about it?

btw I checked the database and cannot seem to find any of the created subdomains, shouldn't they be there somewhere?
I only volunteer answers here, not work. :)
Ask your host?

I did, all they could tell me was that I should change DNS...
Below is my httpd.include, just in case....;o)

And what do your DNS records look like?
In the httpd above, you don't have the line in there that I said you needed.

The DNS is ok, subdomains are now being created ok, the problem is that plesk handles this via a vhost.conf, I found the solution here

Thanks for your help!

You do realise that the answer given in the link you provided is the SAME answer andrea_r gave you earlier on in this post don't you....
ServerAlias *.domain.com

Well no it is not, since the change is NOT to be applied to the httpd.conf as it was suggested rather to a vhost.conf file, and this is because of plesk so there is no need to jump in a thread just to tell me I am an idiot thanks

I am having the same problems so I will see if I can figure it oiut and post a soloution (assuming I figure this out)
I appreciate the responses from those who seem to know the solution, my only suggestion is rather than writing short answers that requires non-technical people to know what the heck you are talking about actually post the solution in detail, ie Step 1, Step 2 etc
You must log in to post.
