Multisite Subdomain showing Error 403

The 403 error could be file permissions, so you’ll want to check that, but I would check the .htaccess file first, to make sure that you have the correct redirects set up for subdomain multisite & domain mapping.

Also, multisite “requires mod_rewrite to be loaded on the Apache server, support for it in .htaccess files, and Options FollowSymLinks either already enabled or at least not permanently disabled.” You might need to check with your host that all this is functioning.

Other server/setup info can be found here: https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Before_You_Create_A_Network

It also couldn’t hurt to check the instructions and make sure you didn’t leave anything out–that happens to the best of us!

My .htaccess file content is exactly the same as proposed here (for WP +3.5 sumbdomain install), plus I’ve added the Options +FollowSymLinks directive just to make sure. Didn’t help.

RewriteEngine On
Options +FollowSymLinks

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).*) $1 [L]
RewriteRule ^(.*\.php)$ $1 [L]
RewriteRule . index.php [L]

I took another look at this image: https://qt.cz/wp-content/uploads/qt_0002_domains.jpg

The subsites should be showing full subdomains in the list: “raimondi.qt.cz” not just “raimondi”.

Are you sure you followed all the instructions for setup properly? Can you post the sections of your wp-config.php file that you changed for multisite? (don’t post any db name, user or pw’s).

No, the subdomains are fine as is.

https://raimondi.qt.cz/ loads for me.

And so does https://raimondi.qt.cz/wp-content/uploads/qt_0002_domains.jpg

raimondi-rls.cz sends me to a FOLDER – https://qt.cz/raimondi/

So that’s where your issue is.

Just to clarify you can see here more clearly – https://raimondi-rls.cz/wp-content/uploads/qt_0002_domains.jpg

So that tells me that you didn’t set up the domain right, outside of WP.

Actually, it just started working yesterday after I’d asked my webhost to properly set up both subdomains as domain aliases for qt.cz.

I guess DNS wildcard * record I’ve created wasn’t good enough to make it all work. I don’t fully understand why, but that’s just what it is.

I suspect it might be webhost specific(?) Afer all, their admin panel is a tiny bit unorthodox and slightly harder to navigate in (than what I’m used to).

Anyhow, I sincerely thank you both for your assistance!

I installed it in the root with subdomains basis. If you go to main site it works. If you go to wp-admin in a subdomain gets 404 Error. it looks as if WP doesn′t installed in subdomain.

I get the DNS wildcard. It resolves when I type a ping at by instante bannermatik.solomayoristas.net but if you type bannermatik.solomayoristas.net/wp-admin the server is not found.

I don′t know if it is a WP issue or Server misconfigured issue

Thanks a lot.,
