images files not displaying

Whew! Solved the problem. The rewrite rule for the files should be:

RewriteRule ^.*/files/(.+) wp-includes/ms-files.php?file=$1 [L]

wp-admin > Network shows an incorrect rewrite rule for my server.

-KIRBY

Works now?

wp-admin > Network shows an incorrect rewrite rule for my server.

What did it show?

Yes, works now.

The wp-admin > Network page showed the following in step 3:

RewriteRule ^files/(.+) wp-includes/ms-files.php?file=$1 [L]

.* before files was the magic sauce I needed for my server.

That’s very strange. The one from the WP admin section is correct.

I agree it’s strange, but apparently I’m not the only one to have the problem. I found the solution in this thread:

That’s where I got the idea to try the .*/

For what it’s worth, my server is running Ubuntu 8.04 LTS with Apache2 and php5.2.4.

nginx is notably different. That doesn’t surprise me much. Apache2 does. ??

I’ll file this away!

I really wish this worked for me ??

Meg – are you also running running Ubuntu 8.04 LTS with Apache2 and php5.2.4 and nginx? If not, make a new topic and explain your situation with details ??

I have a new topic started already ?? I just have still been searching hoping an answer is out there.

In fact you have been helping me ??

Right, I’m just saying, what you’re doing HERE isn’t polite ?? Closing this one as it’s resolved and NOT at all the same as yours.
