    So I finally managed to get multisite subdomain configured properly (or so I thought). I added 2 test sites yesterday, and though I had problems with accessing their dashboards or viewing them via URL, they are running fine today. Encouraged, I added a few more sites today and they appear in the Network Sites list but I can’t access their dashboards and I can’t view the sites, I get “Server not found” error messages in both cases for all of the new sites. After hours of searching for a solution, I am at a loss.

    Just thought I’d post my .htaccess, since I’m not sure whether or not this could be the source of the problem or something else. Here goes:

    SetEnv PHPRC /home/webs/mysite/public_html/php.ini
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /
    RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L]

    # add a trailing slash to /wp-admin
    RewriteRule ^wp-admin$ wp-admin/ [R=301,L]

    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
    RewriteRule ^ – [L]
    RewriteRule ^(wp-(content|admin|includes).*) $1 [L]
    RewriteRule ^(.*\.php)$ $1 [L]
    RewriteRule . index.php [L]

    Any help with this would be appreciated.

    Thanks!

  • Did you try talking to your host?

    Yes, and they told me how to configure wildcard dns in cpanel. The first two sites worked after I did that, but none of the others that I added worked after that.

    I’m stranded and can’t believe that I’ve been at this for 4 days!

    Any suggestion is appreciated.

    Ok, finally got it to work. I contacted my host again, they re-checked and got it to work. This is what they said:

    “For some reason the DNS entry for the wildcard subdomain was not successfully saved to the DNS zone. We had to force this DNS record to the DNS zone and reload the DNS configuration on the server.”

    Hope this helps someone else.

    That’s why I said to talk to your host. I knew something was wonky. ??

    Glad its fixed!
