    I'm new to WP-Hive. Tried v0.5.2 with WordPress 2.9.2, discovered it won't work because I think I need subdirectory support. De-installed, installed v0.6.0 RC1. Still not getting it to work.

    The original blog is website.com/blog. What I want is a new website.com/blog2. I've tried all the obvious derivations, none work. One derivation broke access to wp-admin and the blog, got Unknown Host. Fixed Unknown Host by editing the wphive_hosts table, the original site entry, from website.com/blog back to website.com. (Note the installation defaults the original site to website.com, not website.com/blog where the blog really is.)

    Trying to install website.com/blog2 generates a 403, forbidden, error. The blog2 directory has 777 permissions set.

    What's the right incantation to get this to work?

    Hey I think I've encountered somewhat of a similar problem. I've used WP-Hive to get a few blogs up and running off my main one. However, now once I try to login to my main blog, the login link appears to be broken (I can't even get to the login page). I can see in the URL that it has rerouted me to domain.com/wp-login.php, whereas it should be domain.com/wordpress/wp-login.php. How can I fix this? I'm a little new to Wordpress and am not familiar with the coding, but I think I could figure it out with some guidance. Thanks for your time.

    darh: You MUST install the initial WordPress site and WP Hive on a site that is in a public root directory.

    GOOD: http://website.com/

    BAD: http://website.com/blog/

    Once you have it working in the root directory, you can add the subdirectories /blog and /blog2 within the WP Hive console.

    srajanb: Are you using the latest version of WP Hive?
