Hey there,

I have just bought a copy of MultiSites and tried to install it on what is to become the slave site, but I think this has really go over my head. So first things first, is there a "professional installation" service you might offer?

Secondly, if not, what do all the following errors mean (not where it says file is not writable, it actually is as it has been CHMODed to 777).

Some errors are obvious (like add file defines.php though I have no idea where to get it from. Many are obscure (The routing wrapper is not present in this MASTER configuration file. Actions: Add 16 lines containing the routing wrapper to the slave site.)

All the messages received are below:
