wordpress 3.8.1 MU - problem, need help!

[Darkcrni]

I have install wordpress 3.8.1 Mu

But on my hostagator am having problem to enable DNS wildcard

I did put *.mydomain.com and it should work.

support told me that it needs time to propagate but am just not sure.
It was more then few hours.

Anyone having any idea?

Try your site from another computer - It could just be cached...

Or if you post a subdomain link I can see if its working.....

If you're only using the install for sites you create, you can just create the full subdomain for that install in the dns.

It could be the way HostGator is set up - They do some strange things - I hate waiting for DNS stuff as well - Do a search for my name and there are loads of posts asking for domain checks...

Let me tell you am not having a great feeling about this, as far as i know this thing
should work in like 15 min or so.
This is like they must do some internal setups manually without me knowing!

How do you know it is not working? Did you try to create a new blog on a sub yet?

[Darkcrni]

Of course i did, that's the first thing i did?

Guy from support was on it like 20min and they couldn't fix it or should i say enable it.
So they told me to wait.....

What happened when it didn't work? Error message or what?

2 things need to be done, you add the * wildcard via your dns provider, or domain company, whoever hosts the dns.

then apache needs to add the *.domain.com entry, by default its not added.

[EddyTheDog]

If you put in a subdomain that does not exist and it goes to the main page then the wildcard is working and its a WPMU setup issue...

If not then you will have to wait.....

I double check *.mydomain.com and its pointing right.

This thing must be on their end.

check the apache config entry in cpanel to make sure its added as serveralias

All done.......my setup was fine all the way, just for some reason it took some time to
propagate.
Thank you guys anyhow.
