error installing multisite

  • Hi,
    I try for first time to install multisite but i have some error.
    These are the steps that I perform:

    1.deactivae all plugin
    2.add to wp-config: define( ‘WP_ALLOW_MULTISITE’, true );
    3.from tools, network setup, install multisite and add
    lines to .htaccess and wp-config
    4.login from link in network setup page

    I have always this error:
    Warning: An existing WordPress network was detected.
    So i delete from db the multisite table and this error was fixed.

    But wordpress in the network setup page Always tell me again to add
    lines to .htaccess and wp-config, but the lines are present.

    I try many times, after delete table and line in .htaccess and wp-config but with no results, on existing website and new website, local with xampp and online,i have Always same problem and behaviour.
    Where I mistake?

    Thank you

    Which page? What’s the URL you’re looking at?

    I can only assume you’re missing a step since I cannot reproduce this… Try this:

    1. deactivate all plugins and change to the DEFAULT WordPress theme, TwentyFourteen.

    2. Make sure the tables you mentioned before are removed from your database.

    2. Add the following to wp-config.php: define( 'WP_ALLOW_MULTISITE', true );

    3. Delete all cookies from your browser for your domain and log back in.

    4. Go to example.com -> Admin -> Tools -> Network Setup and copy the information into your wp-config.php, and REPLACE the content of .htaccess

    5. Log out and log back in to WP
