Did you check the permissions of the actual mu-plugins folder? Is the /mu-plugins folder in /wp-content?
Have you read this:

Those are the features in this version. No new features being added, they’re just getting it stable.
Hello,
I did install buddypress and everything is fine, but I can’t post my own language (Thai) in forum.
I can post in English only.
Any advice?
WPMU 2.7 and BuddyPress 1.0b2 installed without problems on my blog, for Portuguese-Brazilian accent in the old topics were lost, but the forum is much faster now.
What are the improvements made in beta2?
Is there any kind of documentation about the functionality of how BuddyPress works? For the most part I understand the whole concept and functioning of the system, however, Trend said something that got me wondering if I even know how the whole system does work. For instance, what is possible under the wire? youtube videos? Videos?
What’s that saying… “God is in the details”.
For the most part the hackers and programmers know what is going on, however some of us are left in the dark a little as to what the difference is between VER 1 to Ver 2 other than being more free of bugs.
When I type my domain, nothing comes up as long as the mu-plugins directory is there. Once I delete it, I can see the WordPress blog (but then I don’t have the buddypress stuff and themes). I don’t know how to check the logs or how to turn on error reporting in Php
Please check your logs, there is no such thing as a blank screen. You can also turn on error reporting in PHP. Once you know what’s wrong, it’s usually simple to diagnose.
I have installed WordPress mu and the install seems to be working fine. Once I add in the files for Buddypress, I get a blank screen. If I change the name of the mu-plugins directory (so that WPMU doesn’t recognize it) I can get see the WPMU site.
I have already changed the permissions (CSS, JS, themes) to 755, so I don’t think that’s the problem
Does anyone have any idea how to fix this? There is some sort of bug in Buddypress.
Thanks in advance for your help.
I have installed a fresh WP MU 2.7 and it’s going well. I then installed Buddypress 1.0 b2 that was just released.
The home theme did not work for me. It gave me a few lines and links on a white page.
I had to go back to the last version and install the home theme while keeping all the other new components from 1.0 b2.
1) Is there a problem with the new default home thing?
2) Has anyone else experienced this problem?
3) Would it be OK to mix and match from 1.0 b and 1.0 b2?
Other than that, it’s all awesome. It’s beautiful. THANK YOU all and Andy

Thank you for your reply! Is the beta 2 is “BuddyPress Combo Download” or the files found at https://svn.buddypress.org/trunk ?
Here is the file from my error logs.
[Thu Jan 29 22:11:54 2009] [error] [client 24.19.248.43] mod_security: Access denied with code 403. Pattern match “\\.php\\?(([a-zA-Z0-9\\-\\_\\.\\[\\]]*)=(http|https|ftp))” at REQUEST_URI [id “6600001”][rev “1”] [msg “Hsphere Rules 1: experimental rule for most php application attacks. Report false positives”] [severity “CRITICAL”] [hostname “support.mysite.net”] [uri “/wp-login.php?redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2Fsupport.mysite.net%2F”] [unique_id “SYJv@sz1K2IAAEkMDOo”]
Obviously mod_security is stopping this believing it’s an attack.
One thing I do not want to do is turn off mod_security, as when I look through just today’s logs there are thousands of actual attack attempts. I had no idea I was such a target already…
Is there a way to add exception rules to mod_security?
Or is there a better way to do this so I can use wordpressmu with buddypress?
Thank you. Done it – I’ve installed back from zero because while installing BBpress I messed up the database.
I’ve noticed that the ‘news’ has changed to ‘blog’ in the beta version. How do I changed that ‘blog’ to ‘news’?
Never, that is why I was asking exactly if that is the same error since there is another thread on this:

Yep, backup and replace everything.
Replace the files and maybe hit the main blog dashboard as the “site-admin” to be sure

Basically a test site for checking features before deploying to our main club site. Follows trunk for WPMU, bbPress, and BuddyPress. Check it out.
I’ve downloaded the Beta 2 but couldn’t find any info about upgrading from the previous version. Do I just replace the old file with the new one?
this no longer works…..what changed in BPB2???
its a scrambled looking BuddyPress Bar. I do not want this on my pages, except on the actual USER Profile Page (Member-theme). How do I kill the bar? Its showing up on all pages when logged in.
Served best with WordPress MU 2.7 (but should work fine on 2.6)

Two conflicting versions of jquery will give you major headaches. I solved the problem by disabling my plugin’s reliance on it’s own jquery lib altogether. I just relied on bp’s jquery lib which was newer. I don’t know of any other way to solve the issue. Apps that rely on js do not play well together.
I just downloaded and installed WPMU 2.7. It’s awesome!
Much better to start with both 2.7 and Buddypress Beta 2 at the outset.
Thank you Andy for all the hard work

When a person clicks the ‘login’ link on the top buddypress bar, when they are in a ‘subsite’ like mypage.mysite.com they get a 403 error on redirect.
This does not happen on the ‘main’ buddypress website, meaning no subdomain.
I asked my sysadmin and she said:
I would guess that this has more to do with your redirect as both actual pages (the page and the page your are referring to) work properly.
403 typically means that you have a permissions issue with the directory you are accessing.
It would appear that you are using wordpress so you might find better luck hitting up their forums to see if anyone there would understand it better. Sorry I can’t be more helpful.
I’m guessing someone has run into this problem before.
Anyone have an idea of how to attack this problem?
Buddypress? It will be out before you know it, but even grabbing the latest ZIP out of trac.buddypress.org/browser/trunk/ at the bottom of the screen will work as well.
