 * Hello, I’m setting up a multisite with subdomain option. So far it’s working 
   but I can’t access pages when I use permalink option different than default (_
   [http://sub.site.com/?p=123](http://sub.site.com/?p=123)_). I’ve seen it’s a 
   common issue but so far any of the solutions reccomended (reset permalink config,
   put in Apache _httpd.conf_ what I have in .htaccess) didn´t work for me.
 * This is my .htaccess content:
 *     ```
       RewriteEngine On
       RewriteBase /
       RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
   
       # uploaded files
       RewriteRule ^files/(.+) wp-includes/ms-files.php?file=$1 [L]
   
       RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
       RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
       RewriteRule ^ - [L]
       RewriteRule . index.php [L]
       ```
   
 * I just saw [this sticky post](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/multiple-domain-with-multisite?replies=2)
   now and didn’t put it in practice yet, I’ll go for it now but in the mean time
   I would appreciate other clues.
 * Thank you very much

 * Check your Apache installation, does it compile with mod_rewrite

 * I think so, this is in my httpd.conf:ç

 * I don’t know your link page language
 * there is an easy way to find out:
 * 1)create a phpinfo.php in your site-root, put a line code in it:
    `<?php phpinfo()?
   >` 2)view it in your IE or chrome e.g. [http://yoursite.com/phpinfo.php](http://yoursite.com/phpinfo.php)
   find: `apache2handler` `Loaded Modules`
 * 3)check if there is “mod_rewrite” in that line

 * Just a note – your htaccess content does not matter if Apache is not reading 
   it or if mod_rewrite is not enabled. 😉
 * If you are not sure if you have mod_rewrite, ask your webhost.

 * Ooops sorry, wrong clipboard content, THIS is my httpd.conf:
 * `LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so`
 * And yes, I can see it in phpinfo()

 * Is AllowOverride set to All in that httpd.conf? My french isn’t good enough to
   parse.
