Wordpress Subdomain Network?

[viclou]

I have tried to create a subdomain network with the documentation provided at http://codex.wordpre...reate_A_Network, however, it seems I am having trouble! Here's what I did:

1. Create a wildcard domain in cPanel (ex: *.yoursite.heliohost.org)
   
2. Use the instructions provided above to enable a subdomain network
   
3. Create a new non-existent subdomain site under the WP network settings (ex: somerandomwebsite999.yoursite.heliohost.org)
   
4. ...and you run into this:
   

Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /cgi-bin/ on this server.
Additionally, a 500 Internal Server Error error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
Apache/2.2.21 (Unix) mod_ssl/2.2.21 OpenSSL/0.9.8e-fips-rhel5 Phusion_Passenger/3.0.11 mod_mono/2.6.3 mod_jk/1.2.30 FrontPage/5.0.2.2635 mod_bwlimited/1.4 mod_auth_passthrough/2.1 mod_fcgid/2.3.6 mod_wsgi/3.3 Python/2.7.1 Server at somerandomwebsite999.yoursite.heliohost.org Port 80

So.. what did i do wrong? Is it impossible to create a WP subdomain network? Please let me know in a reply.

 

Thanks!

I'm not sure HelioHost supports this Here is a past topic with a similar issue: http://www.helionet.org/index/topic/10814-please-help-e-to-add-a-serveralias-lifetasycom-for-my-addon-domain/page__hl__%2Bwordpress+%2Bsubdomain__fromsearch__1

As a little update...the subdomain WP network (created with a wildcard subdomain in cPanel) NOW ACTUALLY WORKS! You just need to wait a few days for the changes to take effect!

Once again... it actually works!
