# Multisite subfolder problem

 * Hello people.
    I have a couple of years of experience working with WordPress,
   but couple of days ago I have got a strange request to create a multisite. I 
   have never worked with this before so I followed the steps by allowing multisite
   as `define('WP_ALLOW_MULTISITE', true);` and I went through the whole network
   setup.
 * Since I have a new installation, I decided to go with subfolder route instead
   of subdomain.
    After copying and pasting correct data into the wp-config.php 
   and .htaccess I was able to see the network setup.
 * Now, I added a site to the network and tried to access it. All I get is a blank
   directory listing.
 * What I don’t understand is do I need to install WordPress into this directory
   as well or not and if not where did I go wrong.
 * Thank you in advacnce.

 * Sorry guys.
    I managed to resolve this issue. I used to have a subdomain in the
   same subfolder so it was clashing with the network setup.
