MU Wordpress, PHP issues

May 22nd, 2008 · 1 Comment

Multi user wordpress is an amazingly awesome and powerful package.  It lets you run a blog hosting service like wordpress.com on your own.  Pretty cool tool for a community.

I’ve run into only one error tonight when setting up MU wordpress.  When I try to login the domain tries to redirect me to "cgi-system/wp-login.php" when it should just be "/wp-login.php".  Apparently this crops up (at Dreamhost in all examples) when you’re running PHP4 instead of PHP5 like you should be.

Move over to PHP5 and you should be ok.

Also, I must mention again that Dreamhost is the coolest web hosting company on the planet.  It was something like 4 AM where I and they are located when I asked them for a wildcard DNS mask.  They replied and had everything setup in ~20 minutes.

They also have a kick-ass referall program where I could make bank if I were link you to them right now.  But I’m not.  I’m just honestly really really in love with Dreamhost.
