DNS Wildcard + subdomains on subdirs + Wordpress MU

[humaneasy]

Hi,

This is somehow related with an old question I posted earlier and that Richard already replied a ton of times, probably. Sorry for that.

So, now I'm using a solution you talked once regarding subdomains and subdirectories but now I need it to work also with WordpressMU in the same wildcarded DNS space and I'm having issues just with that (and not with WPMU).

The domain in question is http://healthblogs.org and the problematic subdomains all give this error:

Site Temporarily Unavailable
We apologize for the inconvenience. Please contact the webmaster/ tech support immediately to have them rectify this.

error id: "bad_httpd_conf"

You can check them at http://faq.healthblogs.org/ http://moon.healthblogs.org/ http://ourstats.healthblogs.org/ and http://support.healthblogs.org/

The .htaccess in questions is:

Code: Select all

Options +FollowSymLinks

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /

# Show Stats
# :: added this to show AWStats stats
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/(stats|failed_auth\.html)/?(.*)$ [NC]

Help please. The site is already in production :\

Best and thanks again,

So you want WPMU to catch all sub domains that don't have a directory in /subsites?

Code: Select all
