Your .htaccess file isn’t being read completely. Make sure you updated it correctly for multisite and, if you did, tell your host.
Thanks for your response! I have my own windows 2003 server running iis 6. I’ve set my multisite in sub folders, my directlry structure is as follow (E:\workgroup\ and E:\workgroup\subsites. I have limited knowledge on .htaccess file a link to tutorial/sample would be very helpful.
Here is my .htaccess, any other suggestion would be greatly appreciated.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /workgroup/
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
# uploaded files
RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?files/(.+) wp-includes/ms-files.php?file=$2 [L]
# add a trailing slash to /wp-admin
RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?wp-admin$ $1wp-admin/ [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
RewriteRule ^ - [L]
RewriteRule ^[_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/(wp-(content|admin|includes).*) $1 [L]
RewriteRule ^[_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/(.*\.php)$ $1 [L]
RewriteRule . index.php [L]
Can some tell me if adding a new site under the Network Admin shouldn’t it automatically create a website and director? Or do I have to create the directory manually?

The directories are virtual. The only ones that get made are in the blogs.dir folder, and those are for file uploads. DO NOT make the /sitename folders or you’ll break things 🙂

Ah. Okay, IIS6 makes a difference. I don’t believe IIS6 uses .htaccess unless you’ve installed something fancy. Still, check that you have Apache web server with the mod_rewrite module installed before we go any further.
Looks like it’s time to upgrade…
Thanks again Ipstenu!
