I’m trying to get an installation of wpmu going. And failing, time after time. Here is a list of the processes:

1. Create a database for the installation.
2. Get the wpmu-unstable.zip file
3. Unzip it in the root of the domain.
4. Move files from wpmu-2* to root folder
5. Change ownership of all files to the domain owner, and the group the same.
6. Make sure Apache httpd.conf contatins the mod_rewrite directive
LoadModule rewrite_module /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_rewrite.so
7. Add to the vhost.conf file:

ServerAdmin server@sample.org
# Temporary dns (wildcard)
ServerName domain.tld
ServerAlias domain.tld *.domain.tld

Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All

8. There is no 8.
9. cd /usr/local/psa/admin/sbin
10. Reconfigure apache with ./websrvmng –reconfigure-vhost –vhost-name=domain.tld
11. Restart apache with service httpd restart
12. Make sure the domain wild card is in the DNS *.domain.tld

It seems to work OK now, except that individual blogs aren’t resolving yet.
