   Settings saved but .htaccess file could not be updated..

   My sites are hosted on 1and1 shared linux and the .htaccess file is in /logs directory by default.

   I tried to copy it to the root- but of course that leads to a 500 error.

   I don't know what would be involved in rewriting the .htaccess file for the root- but since 1and1 is the largest host in the world, this is probably affecting a lot of users.

   Here is my .htaccess file with some of the info x'ed out:

   Options +Indexes
   Satisfy any
   Order Deny,Allow
   Allow from 172.17.0.0/16
   Allow from 212.227.35.64/27
   Allow from 212.227.34.190
   Deny from all
   RemoveType .html .gif
   AuthType Basic
   AuthName "Access for /logs"
   AuthUserFile /xxxxxx/homepages/43/xxx2056437/htpasswd
   require user xxx066699

   Any help?

   Update: I moved Wordpress to the root (it had been in a subdirectory) and Stealth apparently created its own .htaccess file... says it is updated... but never seems to work.

   The .htaccess file just reads:

   # BEGIN WordPress# END WordPress

   I have changed the file permissions to allow read/write/execute access for everyone (777) on this file, and refreshed/retried several but the plugin still isn't working.

   Its says: Settings saved and .htaccess file updated.

   But there is no .htaccess Output at the bottom

   What is going on?

   Plugin has been updated for better htaccess support and error reporting. Let me know if it helps or not.
