multi domain setup can’t access panel in second domain

  • Hi all,

    I have successfully setup multi site in wordpress, hosting on my own server.

    I am able to access both websites, which we will call site1.com and site2.com for our purposes.

    I can log in to site1.com/wp-admin without a problem, however when I try to go to site2.com/wp-admin, I get the generic apache error:

    The requested URL was not found on this server.

    I have no plug ins installed, I have replaced my .htaccess file as per instructions when configuring the multisite mode. As well as edited the wp-config.php as instructed.

    Not sure what is going on, I’ve been trying to read multiple posts similar to my issue, but nothing seems to be working.

    Any help is appreciated!

  • Hi @sgb77

    Have you tested these elements:

    • The DNS record (A type) for the second domain is pointing to the IP of this server.
    • Have you configured the virtual host for this second domain?
    • Have you added this configuration to the sites-enabled, with the a2ensite command?
    • Have you reloaded/restarted Apache to reload the new configuration for this virtual host?

    @amieiro is there a guide on how to do second and third step?

    I just realized that site2.com is pointing to the default virtualmin page, not wordpress page. Not sure where all the different paths should be pointing to in the virtualhost file, so it shows the wordpress domain site.

    Hi @sgb77

    If you are using Virtualmin to administer your server, you need to add the second domain, pointing to the same folder as the first domain.

    Hi @amieiro

    Is there any tutorials or documentary on how to set this up? I could use some guidance on setting this up correctly.

    Thanks for your help.

    HI @sgb77

    I recommend you to go to the Virtualmin support to look for help.
