Multisites – NO: wp-admin / css / images. Main Site – OK

Check your htaccess file, see if it got wiped. (which the upgrade doesn;t touch, but you never know).

all this is htacces related.

Thanks Andrea –

htaccess was wrong – I’ve updated it but now different thinks are broken –

Main Install: https://secondparallel.com = NO THEME, NO IMAGES
Multi-Site: https://criblook.com = NO THEME, NO IMAGES
Multi-Site: https://secondparallel.com/cv/ = NO THEME
Multi-Site: https://adventuremediaschool.com = NO THEME

Could it be permissions related?

Here’s my new .htaccess files, copied from the ‘Network Setup” page

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]

# uploaded files
RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?files/(.+) wp-includes/ms-files.php?file=$2 [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).*) $1 [L]
RewriteRule  ^[_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/(.*\.php)$ $1 [L]
RewriteRule . index.php [L]

Are you using subfolders before you network map?

Did the images and CSS work before you mapped?

Do you have any hotlinking prevention tools turned on?

Everything was working fine and then I had a ‘memory’ fatal error message. I got in touch with the server guys (WiredTree) and they fixed the memory issue but broke something else.

I then upgraded to WP 3.2.1 to try and fix the problem but that didn’t help.

1. Subfolders – before the redirect the directories were – https://secondparallel.com/NAME OF SITE
2. Images / CSS – yes
3. Hotlinking – no / I don’t think so.

Can I give you admin powers to have a look around the site?

Only if you want to pay me (no, not a joke).

Everything was working fine and then I had a ‘memory’ fatal error message. I got in touch with the server guys (WiredTree) and they fixed the memory issue but broke something else.

Without knowing what they did, it’s hard to say.

Is https://secondparallel.com the master domain? I.E. not mapped at all?

I’m also on wiredtree with installs that have mapped domains. ?? So i know it works there fine.

1. Subfolders – before the redirect the directories were – https://secondparallel.com/NAME OF SITE

what redirect?

Hi,
It was working on WiredTree but then as I say, when the ‘memory error was fixed something got broken it seems.

SecondParallel.com is the master domain with WP installed there and the other sites are Multi-Site redirects. The main site was working 100% until the htaccess was updated for ‘Network Setup’ and then it broke. So, it does seem as though this could all be an .htaccess issue.

Redirects are:
Multi-Site: https://criblook.com = NO THEME, NO IMAGES
Multi-Site: https://secondparallel.com/cv/ = NO THEME
Multi-Site: https://adventuremediaschool.com = NO THEME

Thanks for your help!

yes, it is. but not with the htacess file. and the part that’s not workingis not somethng the upgrade touches.

go tell support your htaccess file isn;t being read correctly and they have to change the AllowFileOptions in the httpd.conf file.

Have WiredTree check your httpd.conf file and make sure it’s set to read the whole .htaccess.

But also check the file ownership for your files. And ask WHAT they fixed, cause… it’s a lot of guess work as to what they changed at this point.

Thanks very much :o)

I’ll post back with an update…and hopefully the solution…watch this space.

Thanks all for helping me with this.

Sadly the solutionis not clear – this is what the server guys had to say:

Honestly I’m unfortunately not sure what happened here really. It appears that there had been a number of security issues with your files which we had tried to fix initially, but as the fix was ran on already working sites it made a bit of a mess. But, everything at this time is fixed and working with the proper permissions and securities in place so I don’t think this issue will be encountered again in the future.

Cheers,
Pete
