Dear Wpmu users,
I'm spending two days, just for installing Wordpress MU. Sorry, but contrary to WP, that's seem at least impossible!!
I read all the forum post about problems in installation, I read the readme, I read EVERY doc available on the wp-mu site. No progress.
I really need QUALIFIED help, this please means:
do not reply with "read this, read that", just post COMPLETE configuration file, (specifically, httpd.conf, wp-config.php, etc..etc.) of a working installation.
Now, this is what I would like to do: I have a site, and I would open multiple blogs on a subdir like "http://..../blogs", I would like to report directly the command lines:
1) wget wordpress-mu-2.7.1.zip
2) unzip ....
3) move wordpress-mu.. blogs
4) chown -R apache.apache blogs
5) create a database 'wpmu' in mysql, an a user wpmu with all priviledges on wpmu.
6) added in httpd.conf
<Directory "..../blogs">
AllowOvveride Options FileInfo
</Directory>
7) If I visit http://.../blogs a page appears with "no config file" and a button "create config file", if I push the button, the file IS NOT CREATED.
8) If I create the file with the following content:
// ** MySQL settings - You can get this info from your web host ** //
/** The name of the database for WordPress */
define('DB_NAME', 'wpmu');
/** MySQL database username */
define('DB_USER', 'wpmu');
/** MySQL database password */
define('DB_PASSWORD', '.....');
/** MySQL hostname */
define('DB_HOST', 'localhost');
/** Database Charset to use in creating database tables. */
define('DB_CHARSET', 'utf8');
/** The Database Collate type. Don't change this if in doubt. */
define('DB_COLLATE', '');
define('VHOST', 'no');
$base = '/blogs/';
define('DOMAIN_CURRENT_SITE', '..............' );
define('PATH_CURRENT_SITE', '/blogs/' );
define('SITE_ID_CURRENT_SITE', 1);
define('BLOGID_CURRENT_SITE', '1' );
Fatal Error
If your blog does not display, please contact the owner of this site.
If you are the owner of this site please check that MySQL is running properly and all tables are error free.
Database Tables Missing.
Database tables are missing. This means that MySQL is either not running, WPMU was not installed properly, or someone deleted wp_site. You really should look at your database now.
What do I do now?
Read the bug report page. Some of the guidelines there may help you figure out what went wrong.
If you're still stuck with this message, then check that your database contains the following tables:
* wp_blogs
* wp_users
* wp_usermeta
* wp_site
* wp_sitemeta
* wp_sitecategories
If you suspect a problem please report it to the support forums but you must include the information asked for in the WPMU bug reporting guidelines!
I checked the database, no tables are present, I verified manually that the database is accessible with php, and that the user have the rights to create tables;
So....please HELP
bye,
Antonio
