supermango and George Lerner, thank you for replying. Please bear with me on this one ??

The problem I described in the previous posts was in an internal test-environment. Now I brutally migrated two of my WordPress sites to a multisite; saotn.org and itfaq.nl. Time to break stuff to get to the bottom of this ??

One thing I did different now, as opposed to last time, is I installed the WordPress MU Domain Mapping plugin through the WordPress Dashboard, as where I used the “mu-plugin” method the previous time. The process wasn’t much different, and after setting up my sites ( https://www.saotn.org as ID 1, and https://www.itfaq.nl as ID 3, after deleting the site once ), I couldn’t log in and the Chrome Webmaster tools showed my a cookie conflict. The cookie was still set on .saotn.org even though I wanted to log in on my child site itfaq.nl.

So I looked at the sunrise.php file and noticed some queries on the

$wpdb->prefix_domain_mapping
$wpdb->prefix_domain_mapping_logins

tables. Which were empty in my database…

Adding, editing and deleting sites didn’t change anything, the domain_mapping tables stayed empty. So I added some data with the following SQL statements:

INSERT INTO wp_sys_domain_mapping(id,blog_id,domain,active) VALUES (default,1,"www.saotn.org",1)
INSERT INTO wp_sys_domain_mapping (id, blog_id, domain, active) VALUES (default,3,"www.itfaq.nl",1)
INSERT INTO wp_sys_domain_mapping_logins (id, user_id, blog_id, t) VALUES (1,1,1,now())
INSERT INTO wp_sys_domain_mapping_logins (id, user_id, blog_id, t) VALUES (2,1,3,now())

Resulting in a successful log in to my child site itfaq.nl, sweeeet! ??

Don’t know why the tables stayed empty though, PHP didn’t log any errors (error_reporting on). Maybe someone can reproduce this, preferably on Windows Server IIS, otherwise I’ll mark this topic as resolved later.

Unfortunately not.

I haven’t had the time to look at it again, since was just a test set-up. However, I’ve planned some time to set up a new multi-site environment for two of my live sites, so maybe I have some additional information soon.

Hi David,

I just sent you an e-mail with the requested info (I’m experiencing the same issues registering the plugin). Forgot to mention my installed version is 2.5.18.

Regards,
Jan

No one knows a better method?

I believe to have permalinks properly function now. In cooperation with Helicon’s ISAPI_Rewrite. I have made one code change to wp-includes\classes.php:

// $req_uri = $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];
$req_uri = $_SERVER['HTTP_X_REWRITE_URL'];

(line 46) and with the follwing rewrite rules (which I found on the Helicon forum):

# For file-based wordpress content (i.e. theme, admin, etc.)
RewriteRule /php/wordpress/wp-(.*) /php/wordpress/wp-$1 [L]

# For normal wordpress content, via index.php
RewriteRule ^/php/wordpress/$ /php/wordpress/index.php [L]
RewriteRule /php/wordpress/(.*) /php/wordpress/\?$1 [L]
