One server, two sites, two blogs

Hi Adam, This same thing happened to me. I went back and deleted the wordpress I just set up and then added a “subdomain” to my server. And then added wordpress back to the subdomain and now it works. Maybe that will help you.

Thanks. But I don’t want a subdomain. These are two separate blogs.
BlogX e.g. https://holmesivonline.com – documented what the 2A protects.
BlogY e.g https://petergraceonline.com

Any pointers or clarifications would help?

Thanks,
Adamm

Thanks. I’m still having a problem.
It talks about a core wordpress install.
I have two wordpress installs.
One in /var/www/html
one in /var/www/html2/petergraceonline

I’ve tried updating the index.php file as suggested in
/var/www/html2/petergraceonline
but so far no love.
require( dirname( __FILE__ ) . ‘/html2/petergraceonline/wp-blog-header.php’ );
and other iterations don’t seem to work.

Thank you for all help.

In the site that’s not working, edit your wp-config.php file and set this:

define('WP_DEBUG', true);

That will display the errors that the site is having and you’ll be able to see what is actually going wrong. On top of that you should probably look at the error logs in the server, and that will also give you more information on the actual problem.

What log would I see the errors from WP_DEBUG?
I’ve already looked at the Apache and System logs and don’t see any errors. One site runs well.

Adam

When you change that in your config file you’ll see the errors displayed on your website. they should also go into the Apache error logs, but that can depend on your servers configuration.

And yes, one site does run well, but we aren’t concerned with that one, just the one that’s not working now.. ??

Thanks Looked in apache2 error log.
Found it and fixed.

Thanks.
Was missing these files:
var/www/html2/petergraceonline/wp-content/plugins/ready-backup-pro-one-site-licence/gdrive/gapicl/cache$ ls /var/www/html/wp-content/plugins/ready-backup-pro-one-site-licence/gdrive/gapicl/cache/
Google_ApcCache.php Google_FileCache.php
Google_Cache.php Google_MemcacheCache.php

Just had the server lockup. It’s a t2.micro VPS at Amazon.
I may need to up the server instance type.

Adam

Well I got the server back up by stop then start.
However, I lost all the changes I made.
It’s back before I fixed it.
Sigh.
