Install wpmu is easy but for someone who came from standalone wordpress installation this task might result in desperate.

Yes, that my first impression after trying to edit this file :

wp-config-sample.php

as usual rename it to  wp-config.php and edit appropriate data.

I’m totally wrong by doing this. I got this message :

Warning: constant() [function.constant]: Couldn’t find constant VHOST bla..bla..bla

Yes, never ever touch that file when install wpmu.

Lets continue installation process :

1. Open address from web browser

2. Chmod folder as shown in picture

chmod 777 /home/blog/data/www/ngeblog.cn /home/blog/data/www/ngeblog.cn/wp-content/

3. Reload address in step 1

If everything running well, you’ll see this page :

4. Reverse  file condition into previous condition using chmod

chmod 755  /home/blog/data/www/ngeblog.cn /home/blog/data/www/ngeblog.cn/wp-content/

Yes, the process completed successfully.
