did you set the $blog_id variable? You must pass a number like this:
define ( 'BP_ROOT_BLOG', 3 );
Note: In WordPress 3.1, your $blog_id can be found by navigating to the “Network Admin > Sites” page and hovering over the blog in question. You should see a link that resembles this:
Interesting. When I put in the new code in the config file, the main site also gives the white screen. Yes, I put in the blog ID number where you have the ‘3’.
btw, I replied through email and wasn’t sure it went through so i’m just replying here on the buddy press site. thank you for the assistance. i’m trying to get this dialed to help my users out in a big way.
If you get a white screen, that means a fatal PHP error. Can you set the define back, visit the site (to trigger the error), and then look in your PHP error log? Let us know what it says.
this is what I got:

Hmm. Those are notices (from Visual Composer, and a buddypress.php file in your theme, and from the WP_Widget_Moon_Phases widget), not fatal errors, so unlikely to be breaking the site, and unfortunately shed no light on what might be happening. Not sure.
On your multisite – is BuddyPress network activated?
p.s. even if this was working, all the existing BP configuration settings would live on Site ID 1. I think the BuddyPress content will come across, but you’d have to check/re-set any BuddyPress options.
Buddypress IS network activated.
I know there’s a way. I’ve had buddy press (on a clean install) work on a sub-site before.
Okay. Now it’s working on the sub-site (thanks Paul), but posts from the various sub-sites in my multisite are NOT showing up in the Activity feed. Why?
Specifically, NEW posts are not showing up in the Activity feed after i moved buddypress to the sub-site. But posts that were done before the move are. Why is this and how to fix it?
Okay. I have the feeling that this is the issue, could use some assistance:
timeline:
1) Installed BP on main site (http://www.intothemythica.com)
2) Moved BP to sub-site by setting in wp-config, to (http://www.mythica.intothemythica.com)
result – NEW posts from sub-sites not showing up on Activity feed, but old ones showing.
3) Read an article in BP about moving to a sub-site and redirecting the permalinks. Intuition is that this is the issue.
what to change and how in .htaccess file?
