Permalinks broken and images not showing with Network install

Ipstenu: No I didn’t try it.

Andrea: Micronovae is a windows server application that allows the windows server to behave like apache in relation to htaccess, therefore I believe I do not need a web.config file.

Andrea, I understand that you for good and respectful reasons duck out when windows is involved, but separating that out…
…can either of you posit ideas as to what would allow the images to be on the box in a folder, but the mapping is not right for the sub domain only?

Any ideas about mapping would be appreciated.

Richard, please do try it. 3.1 MIGHT have some wackiness with URLs in IIS, and many other people have had peculiar errors, similar to yours, solved by that plugin.

I know it sounds dumb, but if you can give it a shot, it may help.

If you were on Linux I’d say “Your .htaccess isn’t being read correctly.” and tell you to look at allow overrides, and other httpd.conf settings. The problem is I have no clues for how that translates to IIS6 :/

I tried it, but no help.

I have uninstalled network, using the common methods described in the uninstall instructions, including the removing of a series of tables and deleting my blogs.dir and starting over.

The new installation does it again with the links. I didn’t even get to the images issue.

I even tried another’ Windows method using the web.config, and that one didn’t work.

I am going back to beginning tonight and strip all things our again and see. I think there is something with the rewrites that is not right. The need for /index.php/ to work is something of a hint.

Yeah, it’s something where your permalinks aren’t being handled right. I wish I had the first clue about WHERE to look on IIS ??

on Apache, htaccess. Always. The rewrite rule is right, so outside of that, the server not reading the file.

If I had any experience with Windows servers, I’d be able to help ya out. :-/

I only know one guy, maybe I can haul him in here.

He should consult Micronovae documentation on this. It’s a specific scenario with the .htaccess filter.

I have the same issue – my networked subdomains are working, but the images are broken.

I really, really need a solution to this, so please do help! I run my network on a VPS, CentOS, latest version of everything, full access to all files.

Here is a link to an image not working: https://cat-genie.org/files/2011/02/cat-genie-e1298048555224.jpg

Here is the contents of my .htaccess:

# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L]

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

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
RewriteRule ^ – [L]
RewriteRule . index.php [L]
# END WordPress

Please send any recommendations and I’ll try em out & respond asap.

JohnRazmus – That’s not a 404 on the images (which is what the others are getting. That’s a blank page, which is a PHP issue usually.

https://cat-genie.org/wp-content/blogs.dir/1/files/2011/02/cat-genie-e1298048555224.jpg is a 404 you see.

Please make a new topic, but BEFORE that, try a manual re-upgrade.

Same here, I’ve been having problem with Multi Site attached image in my sub.domain.

attached image from my Primary site works perfectly fine.

sub.domain Post and page permalinks works fine. For the attached images, nothing at all. It doesn’t show any thumbnail, med and large image from the post and even in media page. ??

I’ve tried the plugin bellow and still not working.

I also tried all .htaccess mod_rewrite and still not working.

barabbas, if you’re NOT using IIS, make a new topic, please.

I had migrated my blog to a new hosting plan that had unlimited bandwidth. Once I did that, successfully using wordpress backup, my blog appears appropriately. However the images on the site are not appearing. My images were and are still stored in the Uploads folder under WP Content.
Although the old images are not showing up, If I create a new post and add an image, the image does show up.
The problem seemed when I actually went to the WordPress edit section and check on image properties,
seems to be a problem with current link and link to image section.

for a new post (added after moving hosting service) here are the link settings
Current link and link to image are the same(under edit image settings) – https://artanology.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/IMAGE2BCC20F473F427B3.gif
which is correct, my image does show up

for an older post,

under edit image (in the edit post)
current link to the image is
https://artanology.com/blog/installations/silent-evolution-a-barren-patch-of-sand-just-a-few-months-ago-now/attachment/156655_156316774404798_150479558321853_100337_7191656_n/

and link to the image is
https://artanology.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/156655_156316774404798_150479558321853_100337_7191656_n.jpg

this is the problem. They are not the same! The image would not show up.

I tried everything, all blogs forums no ones got a specific answer,

can someone help, I need to move other blogs and need to know how to fix this please,
and it would be great if you could tell me why this happens and how to avoid it,

Appreciate your help
Thanks

Your question has nothing to do with this topic, Please post a new topic
