wp-admin/network/ NOT staying in the right path

Was WordPress installed in a subfolder? Like https://mysiteURL.pitt.edu/wordpress/wp-admin/network/ ?

You say ‘production’ server. Did you MOVE or copy this install from elsewhere?

This is a windows server and hosts many domains. So, there are clearly folders, but I think the answer is no to your question.

the domain’s folder is /pages-pharmacy/ and the whole site is installed there. No subdirectory was created for it.

Just to be clear- the actual URL is
https://www.pages.pharmacy.pitt.edu/

When I am logged in, and I select “My Sites” I get to this URL: https://www.pages.pharmacy.pitt.edu/wp-admin/network/

If I select “All Sites” I get this URL which produces a 404 error
https://www.pages.pharmacy.pitt.edu/wp-admin/sites.php

But if I manually edit the URL to this, I get the correct stuff:
https://www.pages.pharmacy.pitt.edu/wp-admin/network/sites.php

In my original message, I said this was on a production server. I first built this site on a staging server. Once I had everything working, I rebuilt the multisite network on the production server the same way.

The multisite install on the staging server does not display this problem. The site on the production server does display this problem.

Supposedly, the two servers are set up identically (hardware, software, etc, except that the stage server is only visible inside the University firewall. The production server is visible from anywhere.

I rebuilt the multisite network on the production server the same way.

Manually? You didn’t copy over the DB or anything? It’s important ??

Because if you did it ALL manually, then you did ‘something’ wrong in setup, but heavens knows what, so delete and start over. If at ANY point, however, you copied CONTENT from one DB to the other, that matters alot and we wanna know.

OK. Here is what I did. I installed Word Press on the prod server;
I made it multi-site;
I manually added the sites, one at a time in the /wp-admin/network/sites.php;
On the old server, I exported each site individually.
Then on the new server, I imported these individual site files.

I do not believe database content was ever copied from one DB and imported into another. I was having a problem at one point where the server admin did do something to the databases. But when I asked prompted by uyur question, I was told no.

Okay, BEFORE you imported the sites, did you have this problem?

I don’t believe so. I believe the issue began after we updated the site to 3.8. However, I understand your question. It is possible that something that was imported into a site or the sites is what has caused this to start.

Yeah, normally importing a site shouldn’t do that at all…

Windows sever. What’s your web.config?
