    Hi, to all.

    I really need some light on this issue. I recently upgraded to ver. 3.8.2 and somehow three of the eight site I’ve launch stop allowing me to get into each of their dashboards. The message I received when trying to enter in this:

    <<
    There doesn’t seem to be a wp-config.php file. I need this before we can get started.
    Need more help? We got it.
    You can create a wp-config.php file through a web interface, but this doesn’t work for all server setups. The safest way is to manually create the file.
    >>

    Well, what to say, … apart of the enigmatic way how the system eventually spread the shadow of suspicious on your basic skills with WP : “there doesn’t seem to be …”

    Anyway. I’m really upset with this problem which is getting a serious trouble form the moment I need to upload the site content and time and date are working against my interest.

    Does anyone idea on what did I do wrong when upgrading to WP 3.8.2?

    Some data to exhibit:

    The part of the wp-config.php file relating with multisite says this:

    /* Multisite */
    define('WP_ALLOW_MULTISITE', true);
    define('MULTISITE', true);
    define('SUBDOMAIN_INSTALL', false);
    define('DOMAIN_CURRENT_SITE', 'epulpeditions.com');
    define('PATH_CURRENT_SITE', '/');
    define('SITE_ID_CURRENT_SITE', 1);
    define('BLOG_ID_CURRENT_SITE', 1);
    
    /*activo sunrise del pluggin para multisite multidominio */
    define( 'SUNRISE', 'on');

    The htaccess file says this:

    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /
    RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [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).*) $2 [L]
    RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?(.*\.php)$ $2 [L]
    RewriteRule . index.php [L]
    
    RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^epulp\-editions\.com$ [OR]
    RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.epulp\-editions\.com$
    RewriteRule ^/?$ "http\:\/\/epulpeditions\.com" [R=301,L]

    Have any of you experienced something similar to all that and fixed it?
    Have I missed something in the process?

    The three sites in trouble haven’t vanished in the air; they all are still available to public, .. but not updatable by users!

    I forgot to mention that the rest of sites, and the network works correctly.

    Don’t use <em><< for making code blocks. As you can see in the editor box, there’s a nice button for “code” ?? Please use it. We love it when you do.

    epulpeditions.com works. Which sites on the network don’t?

    Thank you for the advice. I didn’t realize.
    The issue is that I can’t open in the dashboard of each these three sites:
    Epulpeditions.com/hardboiled/
    Epulpeditions.com/romance/, and
    Epulpeditions.com/gothic/

    That’s something it didn’t happened with thre rest of the other five sites. I can open the dashboard with ease.

    Thank you for taking interest into this, Ipstenu.

    Well, I’ve been working on my troubles.
    I think that, eventually, I’ve solved it. The issue was that there were subfolders in the root pointing to each site, with a WP installation not completely setting up (this could be in the origin of the mismatching). Once I realized these subfolders shouldn’t be operative, I decided deleting them, and … surprise! The problem disappeared.
    Anyway, I’m not completely sure if that problem was completely solved, because that subfolders were created a long time ago and they didn’t produce me such head-ache before.
    In case someone had suffered of something similar, I’ll appreciate if he/she explain it here to illustrate and warning about the issue and about the solution he/she applied.
    Thanks.

    You know … the problem mentioned before had been reactivated … again!

    I’m receiving this message three times, one each affected site:

    There doesn't seem to be a wp-config.php file. I need this before we can get started.
    
    Need more help? We got it.

    Create a Configuration File

    I wonder if anyone has already suffer something similar and how did you do to solve it.

    I’ll appreciate any help and my family will pray for his/her soul for a while.

    Are the folders there again?

    it SOUNDS like a specific issue with your server and/or a plugin.

    HI, Ipstenu

    Regarding your questions:
    Yes, the subfolders still are there. And, apart with eventually server problems, last plugging installed was Woodocommerce and upload several others.
    At that time WP3.9.1 also was uploaded.

    Thread Starter ePulpEditions

    (@epulpeditions)

    Hi, Ipstenu.
    I removed the subfolders and everything goes fine now.
    And, apparently, new Plugins and/or uploadings works correctly.

    Thank you for your advice and help.

    There’s something ‘wrong’ on your server then that’s creating the folders, because NOTHING in WP does it :/

    Make sure you don’t have an automatic backup running that adds folders!

    Thread Starter ePulpEditions

    (@epulpeditions)

    Ok, Ipstenu.
    I”l take your notice into account. I proceed with checking the server and the backup process to avoid any future problem around that issue.
    Thanks a lot!!
