WordPress MU

I'm having a problem. I've read several posts but none seem to be helping me any. Everytime I try setting up wordpressmu it creates tables inside the database, but I never get an email message that it says I will. I have mailing service on my server.

Next problem. After I attempt to install it gives me the usual:

"Congrats! Your WPMU site has been set up and you have been sent details of your login and password in an email."

Unfortunately when I try to navigate to my WPMU site it just forwards me to my domain name instead of the WPMU site.

Ex. http://www.mydomain.com/wpmu forwards to http://www.mydomain.com

Can anyone tell me what is going on here?

Update: Trying to navigate to this page in Mozilla forwards me to this type of an address:

http://www.mydomain.com//usr/local/psa/home/vhosts/mydomain.com/httpdocs/blog

Alright I finally got Wordpressmu to send me the email. But now when I go to http://mydomain.com/blog it still forwards me to http://www.mydomain.com/ does this have something to do with the mod_rewrite in my .htaccess file?

Is this right?

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /blog/
# RewriteBase /blog/

# 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]

okay... i removed the .htaccess file contents and now all my links are http://com/blog/mydomain/blog

so yeah... i'm lost...

You need to go through the database tables and fix the domains. I know you need to look at wp_site and wp_blogs at the very least. Something didn't get entered right during your setup. It should work after fix the database though.

i have the same error. when I checked logged in to the admin and tried to create a new blog manually, i got the errors below.

WordPress database error: [Table 'privates_wpmu.wp_3_options' doesn't exist]
SELECT option_value FROM wp_3_options WHERE option_name = 'wp_3_user_roles' LIMIT 1

WordPress database error: [Table 'privates_wpmu.wp_3_options' doesn't exist]
SELECT option_value FROM wp_3_options WHERE option_name = 'post_count' LIMIT 1


Had this same problem with a brand spankin' new install, too. In my case, wp_1_options.option_value was somehow inserted backwards when my first domain was created (instead of http://robbed.org, it had http://org/robbed/).

No idea how the hell that happened, but everything started looking better after I corrected that field.

eljustino - when was that and what version? That problem should have been fixed in the last week or so.

Is this a bug in 1.1 for new installs? Just so I know :)
