I am attempting to run WPMU in a 1and1.com hosted site under the following conditions:
1. Wordpress MU is to be installed in the root, and
2. The default PHP for the website is to be PHP5 because a Wordpress theme needs it.
1and1.com defaults to PHP4 but will support PHP5 if the following code is placed in a .htaccess file: AddType x-mapp-php5 .php
However, if I place this code in the .htaccess file that WPMU generates, WPMU responds when accessed with "Sorry, but you don't have the administrative privileges needed to do this."
If I remove the line in .htaccess, WPMU is fine but the theme that requires PHP5 won't work right.
Any advice?
It seems to me that there either has to be a way to have the two .htaccess codes co-exist in the same file, or I have to go to a different host that supports PHP5 as the default PHP mode.
