I have given up on this as i realize I can’t create a multisite install of WordPress in a subfolder using lighttpd and I do not wish to install wordpress in the rootfolder of my domain being that I wish to run an existing website there.
I tried all kinds of configurations and realize it won’t work the way i want it too.

One question I have what besides convenience and easy of use is the benefit of using WP Multisite as opposed to create individual installs into subfolders or sub-domains?

Thank you all for you help.

Andrea,

You are right. I think the issue is a PHP error (how do i access or locate the error log for php?). I setup the my.cnf file on my mac and this resolved many of the errors I found when logging into phpmyadmin.

There must be something I still am missing because I still can’t upload images. Using the flash uploader it does show the image at 100% crunching but that is as far as I get. With the browser uploader there still is a blank screen and in both cases, no file is uploaded. This must also relate to the permalink issue as I cannot get the new sites links or themes to work.

I will keep checking the boards and tinkering until I find a solution. It seems as if most are using apache with wordpress.

Stay well.

Andrea,

Thanks I will try to use the mod_rewrite instructions they provide for Lighttpd. I think I had it working once with the single user WP.

THanks for clarifying question 11.

I know this sounds silly but how do you “manually” upload images in wordpress posts?

Or should I just up load the images to the blogs.dir folder? I tried to upload images using the Media Library but this gave the same “blank screen” result.

THanks again for all your support.
