    Hi all you smart people out there ??

    I’ve just installed a WP multisite on my WAMP Localhost. The site itself is running fine ..but when creating a new subdirectory, it says “not found” when trying to access ??

    My wp-config contains: 

    define ('WP_ALLOW_MULTISITE', true);
define('MULTISITE', true);
define('SUBDOMAIN_INSTALL', false);
define('DOMAIN_CURRENT_SITE', 'localhost');
define('PATH_CURRENT_SITE', '/test5/');
define('SITE_ID_CURRENT_SITE', 1);
define('BLOG_ID_CURRENT_SITE', 1);

    My .htaccess contains: 

    # BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /test5/
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]

# uploaded files
RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?files/(.+) wp-includes/ms-files.php?file=$2 [L]

# add a trailing slash to /wp-admin
RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?wp-admin$ $1wp-admin/ [R=301,L]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
RewriteRule ^ - [L]
RewriteRule  ^[_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/(wp-(content|admin|includes).*) $1 [L]
RewriteRule  ^[_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/(.*\.php)$ $1 [L]
RewriteRule . /test5/index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress

    In my httpd.config I have changed:

    AllowOverride None to AllowOverride All and have have uncommented LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so.

    Nothing works! ??

    What gives???

    Try ‘AllowOverride Options All’

    Sometimes thats’ needed.

    Did Pretty Permalinks work BEFORE you activated Multisite?

    Hi Mika,

    thanks for the reply.

    Tried the ‘AllowOverride Options All’ to no avail ??

    Regarding the Pretty Permalinks, the answer is both yes and no …but mostly no ??

    By this I mean, that this is a WP site that has been live, where Pretty Permalinks worked just fine. Then I backed up the site and rand it on my localhost ..but here Pretty Permalinks did NOT work.

    Is there something here that is causing the problem?

    Again: thanks for the help! ??

    Since you’re on localhost, make a new SINGLE wp site and see if pretty permalinks work.

    Resolved…

    I came across the same issue, but the above didn’t help..

    I used a tweak by Joel Glovacki on Github, https://gist.github.com/saetia for masking my dns to use ie. localhost.dev for testing.

    I set up a multisite with subdomains on my localhost user web root and got the main site working with a dnsmasq of https://project.dev

    Everything is working nicely for the parent site, but when I create a new site then attempt to reach the dashboard or view anything on the new site I get a 404 Not Found “The requested URL / was not found on this server.” error.

    I have this within my username.conf file:

    DocumentRoot “/Users/Julius/Sites/”
    NameVirtualHost *:80

    Options Indexes MultiViews FollowSymLinks Includes
    AllowOverride All
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all

    UseCanonicalName off
    VirtualDocumentRoot /Users/Julius/Sites/%-2+/htdocs

    and here’s my htaccess file:

    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /
    RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L]

    # add a trailing slash to /wp-admin
    RewriteRule ^wp-admin$ wp-admin/ [R=301,L]

    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
    RewriteRule ^ – [L]
    RewriteRule ^(wp-(content|admin|includes).*) project/htdocs/$1 [L]
    RewriteRule ^(.*\.php)$ project/htdocs/$1 [L]
    RewriteRule . index.php [L]

    Did I do something wrong along the way??

    Thanks!
