HTAccess error

    Just installed this plugin and cloned my site for the first time.

    I cloned site id 2 into site id 3.

    If I go to site id 2 or 3 in the dashboard, I see this error:

    Warning: file_get_contents(/url_removed/.htaccess): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /url_removed/ns-cloner-site-copier/templates/ns-template-preemptive-warnings.php on line 26

    It appears that you have a non-standard (possibly incorrect) .htaccess file for a multisite install. Cloned sites will not work if rewrites are not configured correctly. Please check the recommended htaccess settings here and make sure your .htaccess file matches.

    Site id 1 (which I didn’t clone) has no error.

    I’m using subfolders for multiuser, and WP is installed in a subdirectory.

    so:
    example.com/wp <– main blog
    example.com/wp/site2/ <– side id 2
    example.com/wp/site3/ <– side id 3

    Hi there!

    Is everything still functioning correctly when you clone? Sometimes that warning can hit with a false positive that can be cause by a variety of factors. For example some hosts automatically adjust permissions to folders / files on a schedule which can interfere with proper detection. Migrations can also happen behind the scenes on a host which can change things in the background that affect how the detection works.

    If everything is still working ok, you can safely ignore the warning.

    Best,

    Hello

    Thanks for your reply.

    Everything seems to be working okay.

    Is there anything I can check specifically to diagnose if there is a problem? Like check permissions for any file?

    I’m pretty sure its not to do with the host, since I’m running on a droplet on Digitalocean, so they don’t manage it at all.

    It’s possible you just need to scrub your .htaccess file to make sure everything is setup properly.

    Thanks for the link.

    My htaccess ( from the # BEGIN WordPress to the # END WordPress) is exactly the same as the example in that link, except for the line:

    RewriteBase /

    which on mine is

    RewriteBase /wpinstalldirectory/

    and also on mine, all of it is between these tage:

    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
code as on the linked page
</IfModule>

    So the htaccess looks fine.
    In that case, I’m still confused about what error the plugin is picking up.
