Permalinks link to new registration (7 posts)

    Just upgraded to 1.5.1 and now notice that all permalinks lead to the main blog registration with a signup name of 2008.domian.here.
    You can see what i am talking about by going to crimson.mytimewithgod.net and click on any post title. This happens in all blogs. You can also see it in action at forgiven.mytimewithgod.net and click on any post title. Is this a bug? Or is this something i did wrong in the upgrade? I also just updated the permalinks and that did not do anything.

    I do remember when upgrading getting something that said the $base has to be entered in the wp-config file. It said it should be "/" or "/blogs", i entered "/" and continued with the upgrade. You think this might be the problem? What is suppose to go in there for $base?

    "/" is fine when you're at the root. (which you are)

    If you upgraded and changed permalinks it's likely something in either one of those. or both.

    Hi Andrea_r :)
    I did upgrade but did not *change* permalinks. I only "updated" permalinks after i discovered this problem. So, according to my answer, it has to be in the upgrade; where should i look?

    Oddly enough, http://forgiven.mytimewithgod.net/ works. :-/

    Check your htaccess file and see if anything got changed. that's what makes the permalinks, and something is telling it that it's 2008.domian.here.

    You may need to have a look at the httpd.conf file too.

    Here is the htaccess:
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /

    #uploaded files
    RewriteRule ^(.*/)?files/$ index.php [L]
    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]

    The httpd file has options set and all the need settings for mu to work. This file has not been touched in quite sometime.

    This is found in the log file;
    WordPress database error: [You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'WHERE option_name = blogname' at line 1]\nSELECT option_value FROM WHERE option_name = blogname\n, referer: http://mytimewithgod.net/wp-admin/options-permalink.php

    I made a copy of the old 1.3.x mu and extracted 1.5.1 to the mu install. So, since i have been having this problem, i copied 1.5.1 to a folder and moved 1.3.x back to the mu install and permalinks work like they ought.

    Then i extracted 1.5.1 and copied over the 1.3.x files and permalinks work again????
