    Hello,

    Just reporting my latest error message in case somebody has solved it. (wpmu is the name of the database)

    Fatal Error
    Database Tables Missing.
    The table wpmu::wp_site is missing. Delete the .htaccess file and run the installer again!
    Please check that your database contains the following tables:

    * wp_blogs
    * wp_users
    * wp_usermeta
    * wp_site
    * wp_sitemeta
    * wp_sitecategories

    ----------
    Thanks

    forgot to say that .htaccess does not exist - was not created and that with this release (28th) tables were not created.

    I've fixed that bug. It was introduced as part of my attempts to debug the install problems people are having!
    Download the unstable release again. I recreated it a few minutes ago.

    Hi,

    I get the same results with 2005-08-15...
    Tables exist - .htaccess is being created; FollowSymLinks is on, mod_rewrite active, ...
    Any hints?

    is it installed on the root of the domain? not domain.com/wpmu/files
    but domain.com/files

    thats the way I have to run it anyway...

    It's installed into a subfolder: xyz.domain.com/wpmu/files.
    Does wpmu really require it's own VH?

    Hi,

    I've been trying to install WPMU for about a week now and I tried every nightly version since 2005-08-14 with no success. The error I get is:

    Fatal Error
    Database Tables Missing.
    The table wpmu::wp_site is missing. Delete the .htaccess file and run the installer again!
    Please check that your database contains the following tables:
    wp_blogs
    wp_users
    wp_usermeta
    wp_site
    wp_sitemeta
    wp_sitecategories

    I have post this error a week ago and solutions shown by other members does not solve this problem. Does anyone know what I am not doing correctly? I am using Xampp on a Windows XP machine and I tried switching between PHP 4 and PHP 5 but still does not work.

    I am not trying to bump my post. I am just hoping for a solution. Please excuse this post if it is considered bumping.

    I'm getting the same problem, but now instead of being when I tried to install, it's happening when I try to login or register.
    My install version is wpmu-2005-08-26 and when I don't have the .htaccess in the directories I'm getting this:

    Fatal Error
    Database Tables Missing.
    The table wpwl::wpmu_site is missing. Delete the .htaccess file and run the installer again!
    Please check that your database contains the following tables:
    wpmu_blogs
    wpmu_users
    wpmu_usermeta
    wpmu_site
    wpmu_sitemeta
    wpmu_sitecategories

    But, the thing is: the tables were created by the install. I even was able to create the admin login. I can't figure out what is wrong.

    I tried to put the .htaccess and now I'm getting this:

    Warning: main(/my_path/mublogs/wpmu-settings.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /my_path/mublogs/wp-config.php on line 86

    Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required '/my_path/mublogs/wpmu-settings.php' (include_path='.:/usr/local/lib/php') in /my_path/mublogs/wp-config.php on line 86

    Any ideas???

    I changed the settings file name from 'wpmu-settings.php.dist' to 'wpmu-settings.php' and now I have the .htaccess files on the server and I'm not getting the 'failed to open stream: No such file or directory' anymore. But now I keep getting that 'Fatal Error
    Database Tables Missing.'
    I really don't know what to do. What am I missing here??

    I just installe the wpmu-2005-08-27 version and received the following error message:
    """
    Fatal Error
    Could Not Find Blog!
    Searched for example.com/blog/ in database_blog::test_blogs table. Is that right?
    Please check that your database contains the following tables:

    * test_blogs
    * test_users
    * test_usermeta
    * test_site
    * test_sitemeta
    * test_sitecategories

    If you suspect a problem please report it to support forums!
    """
    The fix for me was to use phpMyAdmin to edit the test_blogs table and add a trailing slash to the blog field, so I changed "/blog" to "/blog/".
    I don't know if I will have to do that to every blog or not, but this step got started.
    Cheers,
    Andy

    But Andy, in your case it couldn't find the blog. In all the other ones the problem was "Database Tables Missing" which is different. Add a trailing slash to the blog field does not help in this case.

    i fixed this error by renaming wpmu-settings.php.dist to wpmu-settings.php

    Warning: main(/my_path/mublogs/wpmu-settings.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /my_path/mublogs/wp-config.php on line 86

    Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required '/my_path/mublogs/wpmu-settings.php' (include_path='.:/usr/local/lib/php') in /my_path/mublogs/wp-config.php on line 86
