Found my issue and posted up a solution. Its a space:

https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/htaccess-for-child-site-uploads?replies=2

I’m going to mark this one as resolved as well. Good Luck.

Found my issue and I cant believe this, obviously this is just for me and might not work for you.

the was a space in the Rewrite rule that needed to be inserted.:

RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?files/(.+)wp-includes/ms-files.php?file=$2 [L]

Needs to be

RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?files/(.+) wp-includes/ms-files.php?file=$2 [L]

Whacky I know. Hope this helps somebody out there.

hich 404? Your server’s or your site’s? They look different ??

Mika >> Server. Since the WP install is on a subdomain and not in the root of our site we are going to have to go with the sub-folder route. I guess we could rewrite the url to snip the primary subdomain but..what a mess.

Thanks for the help, I’m going to close this one out for me but the lesson here i think is if your WP install is not in the root and on a subdomain, you will have to work some server magic if you want to use the subdomain type of multisite network to avoid subsub.subdomain.domain.com

doesn’t resolve at all. 404

its trying to resolve subsub.subdomain.domain.edu

Wildcard subdomains are enabled as well.

Yes, btu only if your server is set up to permit sub-subdomains.
Out of the box, WordPress should let you do that. No domain mapping needed.

I would assume so as well. I can create the site and see it within the Network Admin area. I can adjust settings to the new site except assign a theme to it, and of course actually viewing it.

Agree my situation is different than frisco, I do not need subsub.subdomain.domain.edu
only sub.domain.edu.

What can I tell my Sys Admin to check for if anything on the server?
