A new installation was set up with wordpress now in the root but I now see the following WordPress Settings Requirements * * Giving WordPress its own directory will not work in WordPress 3.0 with multisite enabled. It interferes with the member blog lookup. I am now conflicted,as to the correct configuration * Your assistance is appreciated * [Andrea Rennick](https://wordpress.org/support/users/andrea_r/) * (@andrea_r) * [15 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/network-installation-error/#post-1681273) * two different issues there. * No, domain mapping will not work properly if you have the installation something like yourdomain.com./inhere/ * Because anything you map will have the folder name in it. * > A new installation was set up with wordpress now in the root but I now see > the following > WordPress Settings Requirements > * Giving WordPress its own directory will not work in WordPress 3.0 with multisite > enabled.

Do you have wordpress installed in a folder but working out of the root? Because that’s what this particular message is about. Not quite the same. * Thread Starter [dbldee](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dbldee/) * (@dbldee) * [15 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/network-installation-error/#post-1681321) * Thanks for your reply * WordPress is set in a folder which is on the root the config.php was edited to allow multisite I received a message confirming that the install was successfull, but now the error message [install here](http://getcheaphouseinsurance.com/wp-login.php) As mentioned the database does not have the extra global tables * thanks * [Andrea Rennick](https://wordpress.org/support/users/andrea_r/) * (@andrea_r) * [15 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/network-installation-error/#post-1681324) * Does the db user have ALL permissions on the db? * And you read the link that was shown, yes? * Thread Starter [dbldee](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dbldee/) * (@dbldee) * [15 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/network-installation-error/#post-1681386) * Some editing to congfig.php and .htaccess required however now database connect errors I have verified database details, but apparently something else is missing * [Andrea Rennick](https://wordpress.org/support/users/andrea_r/) * (@andrea_r) * [15 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/network-installation-error/#post-1681389) * Yes, editing the config and htaccess is required in setting it up and is outlined in the instructions I left above.
