BuddyPress.org

I just thought, in case anyone was wondering…

I started a server from scratch (Ubuntu Hardy, Apache 2, PHP 5 MySQL 5) and installed a fresh WPMU 2.7.1 with a brand new bare database, only using the default theme w/out any plugins (w/out buddypress too)…and was STILL able to reproduce the internal redirect.

I then thought to see if other MU installs would react the same way…

so I tested these (plus about 30 others, not all Buddypress sites, some just MU installs)

http://bp-dev.org/wp-cotent/plugins/bp-core/images/mystery-man.jpg

and…

http://www.flokka.com/wp-cotent/plugins/bp-core/images/mystery-man.jpg

(I misspelled “wp-cotent” and the error came)

It happened on MOST WPMU installs (buddypress.org and WordPress.com returned 404 errors)

I realize this is a WordPress Mu issue, so I reported on their forums

https://mu.wordpress.org/forums/topic/12676

But if anyone has an idea as to make these errors a 404 like buddypress and wordpress.com do, Please Help.
