• Trying to set up a multisite on a goDaddy linux server and, like many other am getting a 500 error when trying to go to the subsite’s dashboard.

    here is my htaccess code

    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /officedepot/
    RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [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).*) home/content/10/5320810/html/werxrepair/officedepot/$2 [L]
    RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?(.*\.php)$ home/content/10/5320810/html/werxrepair/officedepot/$2 [L]
    RewriteRule . index.php [L]

    and here is my wp-config code

    * For developers: WordPress debugging mode.
     *
     * Change this to true to enable the display of notices during development.
     * It is strongly recommended that plugin and theme developers use WP_DEBUG
     * in their development environments.
     */
    define('WP_DEBUG', false);
    
    /* Multisite */
    define( 'WP_ALLOW_MULTISITE', true );
    
    define('MULTISITE', true);
    define('SUBDOMAIN_INSTALL', false);
    define('DOMAIN_CURRENT_SITE', 'werxrepair.com');
    define('PATH_CURRENT_SITE', '/officedepot/');
    define('SITE_ID_CURRENT_SITE', 1);
    define('BLOG_ID_CURRENT_SITE', 1);
    
    /* That's all, stop editing! Happy blogging. */
    
    /** Absolute path to the WordPress directory. */
    if ( !defined('ABSPATH') )
    	define('ABSPATH', dirname(__FILE__) . '/');
    
    /** Sets up WordPress vars and included files. */
    require_once(ABSPATH . 'wp-settings.php');

    any help will be greatly appreciated as goDaddy is NO HELP.

    Cheers

    Are you on their managed hosting? They block Multisite on that.

    no I am on a linux server.

    I would remove the htaccess file and see if that clears out the 500 error. Just remember to back it up.

    didn’t work

    If it is not caused by htaccess file then there must be a problem with your server. I doubt installing WP caused the 500 error; on an otherwise error free server. Can you load a file from the WP directory through your brower? For example I would try to load the readme.html file.

    I also recommend looking at the log files to see if there are any specific messages.
