In brief: I can't see any of my images in my upgraded site. I suspect it is because the url is looking for 'system/files/images/img.jpg'.
Background: I am in the process of upgrading my 4.7.5 site to drupal 5. In my 4.7 site, I use image.module extensively. All file uploads were set to PRIVATE. So, the 'files' folder was here: root/username/www/files/, with 'images' in 'files', and my drupal site was also in home/username/www.
In drupal 5, I am doing a multisite install. So, the drupal core is here: root/username/www/stuff. The site I am upgrading is here: root/username/www/sites/snq.domain.com, 'snq' is being redirected to this folder. The 'files' folder is in 'root/username/www/sites/snq.domain.com/files' and according to the admin, it is present and readable. All images are there as well.
However...
When I go to visit an image, the url is this: http://snq.domain.com/system/files/images/img.jpg, and a 'page not found' error is returned. After some reading, this appears to be b/c I have set my file settings to PRIVATE. However, I did not change this from drupal 4.7.
So, do I have my 'files' folder in the right place (the 'sites/snq.domain.com/files' folder)?
Do I need to put it ABOVE www (so, 'root/username/)? If I do this, what will distinguish it from other multisite running on the same account?
