 * Hello!
    I hope that is the right forum. Some brief preliminary infos: Dedicated
   server running CentOS 6.7. I’ve set up three virtualhosts. Main domain is installed
   in its proper directory (ex. public_html/user/mydomain) and inside this directory
   runs a wordpress multisite (within subfolders, no subdomain). As instruction 
   on setting up a multisite, I’ve copied index.php and .htacces outside …/mydomain/
   folder, so it is inside /user/ folder. The DNS resolves correctly.
 * And here we go to the problem. I’ve created another 2 vhosts subdomain : one 
   running wordpress and the other another php script for elearning. So they reside
   in public_html/user/wordpress and public_html/user/elearning directories respectively
   and their URLs should be like: awpsite.mydomain.xx
    My question is on the URLs.
   These two new sites are accessible only with the directory name in their URLs:
   so, awpsite.mydomain/wordpress or …/elearning
 * I know that the host resolve correctly because the .htaccess is the main root,
   infact if I not digit the final directory I am redirected to the main domain.
   Other subdomains are only accessible when pointing at their path directory, in
   the url.
    How could I resolve this issue? I guess I need to touch .htaccess for
   the main domain…but
 * Sorry for the long post.
    Regards David

 * To whom it may interests: the reason is on IP based vhosts. Best to use “name
   based” virtual hosts.
