[support] Drupal multisite subdomain :Symbolic link not all owed or link target not accessible:

[Ursula Pieper]

Couple of thoughts:

There might be something later in your httpd.conf file that overwrites your
options:

Did you check the permissions of the directories and links, and made sure
they are readable by the apache user?

I have not used base_url, but otherwise, your configuration looks a lot like
mine, which is working fine.
