WordPress MU

Hello all!

I have just installed WordPress and everything wet well but I have spent the last 3 hours looking through the foum for answers on wp-signup.php without success.

After I install, when I click on "Create a new blog" it leads me to a standard error message when a page does not exist on the web.

What can I do? What is the problem. Help!

Thanks!

You may have to have wildcard (*) option with your hosting company for virtual subdomains.

Basically, you cannot create a new blog on a virtual subdomain that does not exist. It won't exist until you create it, and you can't create it automatically if you don't have the option to do so through your hosting company.

Usually, if you are using some type of control panel, you can create a (virtual) subdomain, with the path to the root (the main site uri). It is not too efficient if you are trying to have an automated blog community, where people can create a blog without having to wait for you to create the space for it. It is efficient if you dont want people to automatically sign up for a blog.

I hope this helps you out.

It does sound like the wildcards are missing, either from DNS or apache or both.

I also have a problem with signing up.

when a user selects create a new blog this is what is shown:

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /hsphere/local/home/spiko/blog.prizma.si/wp-content/themes/default/header.php:2) in /hsphere/local/home/spiko/blog.prizma.si/wp-signup.php on line 348

I haven't touched any of these.

Again, I have a "similar" problem wether using subdomains or mydomain.com/blogname.

But I don't get an error message. After supplying a blog name and email and clicking next, nothing happens. Firefox goes to a blank page and Safari tells me the server dropped the connection. (i'm running it on a virtual host in OS X 10.5.2).

The Apache error log throws this every time I try to create a new account.

[notice] child pid 860 exit signal Bus error (10)

Unless I'm logged in as admin, then everything works fine.
