Hi MacManX,

sorry i didn’t follow your directions the first time. for some reason, the anchor tag didn’t work in your first link, and i was only half looking at work.

i tried both of your selections. i still can’t log in to my site administration, even though my blog and photo blog are still accessible.

any other suggestions?
if not, do you think doing a re-install might be my only hope?
here’s the error i’m getting:

Internal Server Error

The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.

Please contact the server administrator, [email protected] and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.

More information about this error may be available in the server error log.

Additionally, a 500 Internal Server Error error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

thanks!

well, that was weird.
there was no htaccess file in my blog directory.
maybe i moved it somehow, but i added it, and now i can see my control panel.

thanks ipstenu, i really appreciate your help!!

i checked my control panel for errors:
this came up:

[Mon Jul 19 18:30:37 2010] [error] [client *IP address removed*] client denied by server configuration: /home/danielle/public_html/blog/.htaccess

so maybe it is something with the htaccess?

thanks for the tip, ipenstu.
i think i did my htaccess file properly. but i don’t have a “network” option under tools.

my htaccess file looks like this:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /blog/
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]

# uploaded files
RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?files/(.+) wp-includes/ms-files.php?file=$2 [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).*) $2 [L]
RewriteRule  ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?(.*\.php)$ $2 [L]
RewriteRule . index.php [L]

andrea_r, this may be a n00b question, but how can I tell if my htacess file is not being read?

thanks for your help!
