On my server, I have a limited ammount of subdomains, so I don't want to use them for the blogs. I unchecked the box during installation that says "Enable virtual server support" hoping that would to the trick, but all it seems to do is generate the URL's for the blogs as http://net/wpmu/thatothersite/
How do I fix this?
Thanks
did you install it in a folder called "wpmu"? If so then that would kinda be why "wpmu" is in the address. Also, is "net" the only thing it's putting out for the domain or did you remove the domain for the post?
What I posted is exactly what it gave me for the address.
I'm in the same boat at http://www.nzrh.com and if you visit the admin login page and mouseover the "back to blog" link you can see that the path is http://com/nzrh/ which isn't right.
I've installed it into the root of the site.
I appreciate the symlinks is better by far but it's also a bit outside the scope of what I'm trying to do.
I'm having this problem as well, I've installed and removed wpmu about 5 times, every time it makes all links/urls "http://com/..." (main page has no images, no css)
You could either manually fix the site name in the database or try reinstalling (start from scratch) using http://yourdomain.com *without the www* to keep it from happening again.
Thanks itdamager (not a username I automatically trust, mind you ;))
Can you let me know which table.column.row needs updating?
I think its wp_site (presuming you used the default wp_ table prefix). Its easy to find if you look using something like phpmyadmin.
The values in wp_site all looked ok but there were 3 screwups in wp_1_options that I fixed - but it didn't fix the problem unfortunately.
