Symlinks no longer working with Domain Mapping Plugin

    Multisite hosted on Media Temple. I added a new DNS Zone file and added a new “Subscription” (Plesk allows you to create Subscriptions for your domains which I need in ordper to setup email for these domains on that server). I then created a symlink so that the new Subscrition folder would point to the same folder as mainsite.com. Everything Was working fine, the newdomain.com was pointing to the central folder and the domain was resolving to the correct theme. Then yesterday, seemingly randomly, it just stopped working.

    Symlinks are no longer pointing newsite.com to the theme on mainsite.com. Now it is pointing to the server IP which is defaulting to the main domain on the server. Anyone have any ideas on why this might be and how to fix it?

    I double checked and all of the symlinks still exist.

    I know >this< much about Plesk.

    Have you asked MediaTemple?

    Are there some docs you can point us to about how the whole symlink/sybscription thing works? Maybe we can extrapolate…

    Media Temple doesn’t give much support when it comes to the Dedicated Virtual server. I was able to resolve this for now by going to Plesk and changing the default ipaddress for the server to point towards the multisite domain that I was using. I don’t know why this was working originally and then decided to stop. This seems to be a fix for now. Thanks as always Ipstenu!
