By the way this is the error I am getting

The email could not be sent: Connection could not be established with host smtp.sparkpostmail.com [Connection timed out #110]

Hi guys,
I did what the article said , my folder had the correct permissions but I made them recursive just in case. I then deleted the plugin and added it back via ftp, to no avail. The native plugin images do not show, but images that I add via upload do work…

Hi just to clarify , this happens within the email. One image shows just fine, the other two images have the messed up url.

hey Fritz , John talk about this error here hope it helps.

Ok finally got this sorted out!
I moved the Multisite install over to its own directory with a dif domain name and nothing. I then got back to the hosting ppl and finally ran into one that had a clue, and wanted to be helpful.

[12:13:21 PM] It looks like the httpd.conf file is trying to set the wildcard as its own virtualhost, using ServerName, instead of ServerAlias.

: [12:22:32 PM] Technically, the site manager doesn’t support this sort of wildcard domain configuration, and is thus beyond the scope of our technical support. However, you simple need to edit “/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf” around line 1150 and set the ServerName to “premiumwebspots.com” and the ServerAlias to “*.premiumwebspots.com”

This is what the settings were looking like before:

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName *.premiumwebspots.com
ServerAlias www.*.premiumwebspots.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/html/premiumspots
</VirtualHost>

I made the changes restarted the server and bingo!
Thanks for the help guys.

I’m going to move site1 to another directory and use another domain and see if that solves the issue. Thanks for your help.

I want, and have 2 multisite installations, one is in the root, and another is in a subdirectory, but apparently the root installation is causing problems with the redirection of the one in the subdomain.

No I did a fresh install on both of them.

I just read up a little on .htaccess rules and they said that rules affect all the directories in the directory that the .htaccess file is in. Could this be the issue? Site1’s .htaccess file is taking over control.

This is the email I got from my hosting people in regards to why the subdomain was redirecting to the main site. eight32.com is site1.com and premiumwebspots.com is site2.com.
Thanks

As it turns out, this is working properly. It appears there is a hidden redirect, somewhere, that is causing this. Below are the DNS results, the http headers from my browser, as well as the entries from the httpd.conf file.

$ host premiumwebspots.com
premiumwebspots.com has address 69.36.181.212
$ host reedstest.premiumwebspots.com
reedstest.premiumwebspots.com is an alias for premiumwebspots.com.
premiumwebspots.com has address 69.36.181.212

Where redirects are considered custom, technical support is not able to fix them for you, however, I have looked in all the normal files that would do this, and cannot find anything that would cause this.

My apologies, upon reading the question again i realized it was “hazy” at best. You assumed correctly, they are both multisite installs, and the addon domain’s(site2) original wp-config and htaccess are below. Any subdomain request ie. 123.site2.com gets redirected to site1.com.
Thanks
