The rewrite fix didn't work for me however, I 'm stuck with the default permalinks for this site. </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/164360/page/4#post-822548 Wed, 06 Aug 2008 08:43:12 +0000 sciencebase 822548@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>I've got a IIS site running a Wordpress blog and we had all kinds of problems getting permalinks to work, but it is possible. Anything's possible, it just takes time and effort. </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/164360/page/4#post-821775 Tue, 05 Aug 2008 14:45:53 +0000 mrjeany 821775@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>I've just had a disaster with the rewrite.php file - I read through this thread carefully, downloaded the rewrite.php file and copied it to my server. The site stopped working; nothing will load. I deleted it from the server and restored the original version, but the problem is the same - the browser attempts to load the page for about 10 mins and then either a database connection error comes up, or it says 'The specified CGI application exceeded the allowed time for processing. The server has deleted the process.'. I haven't changed anything else on the server. Anyone have any ideas what might be going wrong? I've tried copying the rewrite.php file in binary and ascii modes... </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/130788#post-809070 Sun, 20 Jul 2008 03:00:46 +0000 mobyme 809070@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p><code>&lt;a href=&quot;&lt;?php bloginfo(&#39;url&#39;); ?&gt;/&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;&lt;?php bloginfo(&#39;template_directory&#39;); ?&gt;/images/yourimage&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;</code><br /> That's what it should have been </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/130788#post-809065 Sun, 20 Jul 2008 02:51:30 +0000 mobyme 809065@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>I'm pretty new to wordpress and still very much in learning mode.

The Import button is freeze and nothing happens without start importing. I've tried to clear configuration and restart but again nothing happens and the Import button changes to "Importing" without doing anything.</p> <p>Anyone could help me to recover and update importing again from blogger???</p> <p>Thanks! </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/164360/page/4#post-741800 Wed, 23 Apr 2008 16:47:14 +0000 inkyneil 741800@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Hi I ran into this problem too and I'm on Brinkster Windows hosting. The permalink I'm using is:<br /> /index.php/archive/%postname%/</p> <p>After upgrading from v2.2 to v2.5, none of the links to either posts, pages, categories or calendars work. However, when I change permalinks back to the default setting, everything goes back to normal. Now I'm pretty sure it's got nothing to do with my hosting provider as custom permalinks were working on the older version.</p> <p>Anyone have any idea on what else I can try? I tried using the modified rewrite.php by dlo but had no joy with it. :( </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/164360/page/4#post-741012 Tue, 22 Apr 2008 18:09:11 +0000 astrologer 741012@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Glendale, I do not think I am running into this issue.

If you don't have a permalink structure beginning by /index.php/... (aka PATHINFO permalink), the fix will have no effect on your blog's behaviour.</p> <p>Best regards </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/164360/page/4#post-740783 Tue, 22 Apr 2008 14:42:07 +0000 astrologer 740783@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Dlo, it is a request for you to look at problem described in <a href="http://wordpress.org/support/topic/170853" rel="nofollow">http://wordpress.org/support/topic/170853</a> and confirm if your fix indeed works on category and archive links.</p> <p>thanks<br /> astrologer </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/164360/page/4#post-740644 Tue, 22 Apr 2008 09:45:24 +0000 slow_sl 740644@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Thanks, got it :) Tried, but it didn't work.

Thank you.</p> <p>Just to clear up some confusion in this thread, people use the /index.php/ in the permalink structure when they aren't allowed to access the .htaccess file with their host (like with Yahoo!). adding index.php to your uri isn't ideal but it beats ?23423234.</p> <p>dlo, call this the Yahoo! fix will ya? :P good job. </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/164360/page/4#post-738677 Sat, 19 Apr 2008 11:57:17 +0000 lostasylum 738677@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>hi dlo, i've tried your solution... unfortunately it doesn't work for me....</p> <p>i downloaded rewrite.php and then replaced the old one with the new one.<br /> i then changed the permalink structure back to default and saved it.<br /> i then changed it to /index.php/%postname%/, but it didn't work.</p> <p>any ideas?<br /> this permalink issue has been a real pain the @$$.... </p> <p>i'm on IIS, helm. </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/164360/page/3#post-737647 Fri, 18 Apr 2008 07:25:51 +0000 dlo 737647@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Hi everybody,<br /> You'd surely all be glad to know that the final correction of this bug will be included in WP 2.5.1 that is soon to be released.<br /> Thanks for all your feedback and reactions that helped much in chasing and locating that annoying bug.</p> <p>Best regards,<br /> dlo </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/164360/page/3#post-737206 Thu, 17 Apr 2008 18:37:07 +0000 inteli6encia 737206@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Thanks dlo, I upgraded recently a site from 2.3.3 to 2.5 and has the same problem with pages, but after update rewrite.php and refresh permalinks the site works fine!</p> <p>Thanks again. </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/164360/page/3#post-737165 Thu, 17 Apr 2008 17:43:29 +0000 alivesitesi 737165@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Craig3:<br /> I haven't encountered any problem so far but I'll check the support forum to see what they complain about and if something doesn't work on my site as they tell, I'll inform my site's hosting managers.

Apply it carefully.</p> <p>After you change the rewrite.php file with the correct one:<br /> choose the default permalink and save it.<br /> Then apply this one:<br /> /index.php/%postname%/<br /> and save it.<br /> your pages will work without any problem. </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/164360/page/3#post-736831 Thu, 17 Apr 2008 10:18:56 +0000 Craig3 736831@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>The latest version of isapi_rewrite is seriously unstable. There is a flood of complaints in helicon's support forum, and the developers seem to be unable to fix it as the rewriter crashes/stops as of version 3.1.38 until the latest 3.1.45. </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/130449#post-736665 Thu, 17 Apr 2008 04:07:50 +0000 MickOrton 736665@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>I tried that and it did not work for me either.

Thank you. That was one of the easiest "fixes" I've ever had to do. And I'm no programmer. </p> <p>THANKS!!</p> <p>Karri </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/164360/page/3#post-736514 Thu, 17 Apr 2008 00:06:34 +0000 alivesitesi 736514@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>@ to Doccorner:</p> <p><strong>1-</strong> about the .htaccess file I have told above:<br /> a) First of all, ask your hosting managers if their servers support isapi_rewrite component. If the answer "no", you can't use it. ıf they say "yes", that's OK.<br /> b) after you upload it into your site, check its name. if it is <strong>htaccess</strong> you must change the name like this: <strong>.htaccess</strong><br /> If you can use this .htaccess file in your site, everything is OK. You don't need to get Linux.</p> <p><strong>2-</strong> about your pages problem:<br /> Follow those steps carefully:<br /> 1- Using FTP, enter "includes" and remove the existing rewrite.php file. Then put the correct rewrite.php file into the same place (includes). To download the correct file click here: <a href="http://alivesitesi.googlepages.com/rewrite.php">rewrite.php</a><br /> 2- On Your WordPress Blog: Turn your permalinks to the default, save this option, then turn on your custom permalinks and save it again. </p>
