I’m moving all my sites to BH and have multiple domains setup as Add-On sites.

I’m stuck at this point of the instructions for WordPress MU Domain Mapping Plugin.

My WP is installed at the root of public_html

public_html/

With two Addon domains at the root of public_html/

public_html/addon_Site1
public_html/addon_Site2

With BH, do I have access to WHM?

I do have the Network setup properly and have the following in place:

myprimarydomain-wordpress-install.com
myprimarydomain-wordpress-install.com\addon_Site1 (which I want pointing to myaddondomain-wordpress-install.com)

= For Cpanel users =

If your domain uses the nameservers on your hosting account you should follow these instructions. If the nameservers are elsewhere change the A record or CNAME as documented above.
Add a wildcard subdomain/virtual host record to your site’s DNS record in Web Host Manager (WHM). If you do not have access to WHM, you must email your web host and ask them to make this one change for you. Should be no problem:

* Go to “Edit DNS Zone” and select the domain of your WPMU installation and click “Edit”.
* Below “Add New Entries Below This Line”, enter in the first box (Domain) an asterisk: “*”.
* The second box, TTL, should be “14400”.
* The third box should be “IN”.
* Select A Record Type from the drop down “A”.
* And in the last box, paste in the IP address of your website/network.

From Cpanel, click on the “Parked Domains” under the “Domains” section:

* Under “Create a New Parked Domain” enter the domain name you want to add to your network.
* Click the “Add Domain” button.
* It should add the domain to the list of parked domains and under “Redirect to” it will say “not redirected”. That is OKAY.

Now you’re ready to do your domain mapping.

Resolved. Please close thread.

Update:

I’ve created a fresh install of 3.3 in a new folder in my htdocs, made the above changes, and in Terminal enabled sockets using the following code:
php –ri sockets
Which returned:
sockets

Sockets Support => enabled

I tried just installing a Plugin and it starts, but fails. The folder is downloaded and contains all the files needed.
/Applications/MAMP/htdocs/wp33/wordpress/wp-content/upgrade/lightbox-plus.tmp/lightbox-plus

The package could not be installed. The plugin contains no files.

I’ve seen lots of posts on WP and MAMP and 10.6, but wondering if anyone is working with it in 10.7 successfully and could offer any advice for getting auto-updates/installs working.

Manually moving the lightbox-plus folder from above to /Applications/MAMP/htdocs/wp33/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/lightbox-plus allows for successful install of the plugin, so the error of “The plugin contains no files.” is inaccurate.
