Sorry if i posted this else where didnt see where to start a new topic was but anyway

I recently tried moving my wordpress to my sites root and I changed the home and blog url to my root then moved everything the home page worked but that was it all the rest of the pages didnt, I know its a permalink problem but i cant even login to change it everytime i go to www.sypherav.com/wp-admin/ it says
"Not Found

The requested URL /login was not found on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request."

so i cant login to my dashboard to change anything internally, I checked on myphpadmin to see if the blog url was right and it was, I also tried deleting my .htaccess file, that did nothing, i tried changing the permissions of my .htaccess file, that did nothing. so then i had this idea why not move the wordpress back to where it originally was, so i went into myphpadmin changed the blog url back to www.sypherav.com/client (the original wordpress location) again the home page worked just fine, but then when i tried to navigate to other pages or to login i get the same error! can somebody please help me!!! i dont know what to do im guessing it has something to do with the .htaccess file but i wouldnt even know what code to change in there this is how my .htaccess file looks
# -FrontPage-

IndexIgnore .htaccess */.??* *~ *# */HEADER* */README* */_vti*

<Limit GET POST>
order deny,allow
deny from all
allow from all
</Limit>
<Limit PUT DELETE>
order deny,allow
deny from all
</Limit>
AuthName sypherpro.com
AuthUserFile /home/sypher/public_html/_vti_pvt/service.pwd
AuthGroupFile /home/sypher/public_html/_vti_pvt/service.grp

i feel like ive tried everything...

Your htaccess file shows that Frontpage extensions are installed, so check these instructions to make permalinks work with Frontpage. It involves adding one line to various htaccess files.

If that doesn't work, try deleting your htaccess and regenerating it from the dashboard, if you can get into the dasboard. Or, use these basic WP rewrite rules in htaccess with nothing else:
```
RewriteEngine on

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
```

i looked at the instructions and apparently the already had that line of code in each .htaccess file, i cant access my dashboard because the permalinks dont work, unless theres another way to get to the dash board

also with the .htaccess file is that suppose to be in the root of the site? or where your blog is? i dont remember where it was in the first place because I have moved everything around so many times, im going to try that code you have posted there

ok so i just tried changing the .htaccess file to the code you have posted above when i kept the file in the site root (wordpress in a different directory) it gave me this error when i tried to go to a page other than the home page

Internal Server Error

The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.

Please contact the server administrator, webmaster@sypherav.com and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.

More information about this error may be available in the server error log.

Additionally, a 500 Internal Server Error error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

when i put the .htaccess in the same directory it goes back to my original problem with the requested url not found

You already tired adding these two lines to your wp-config.php and it didn't work enough for you to get into the dashboard?
```
define('WP_HOME','http://sypherav.com/client/');
define('WP_SITEURL','http://sypherav.com/client/');
```

nope everytime i go to www.sypherav.com/client/wp-admin/

it gives me this error message:
Not Found

The requested URL /client/login was not found on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

OK, just to be clear: what directory is wordpress in now? Root, as in syperav.com, or in syperav.com/client ? If it's back in /client, try these lines again, without the trailing slash:
```
define('WP_HOME','http://sypherav.com/client');
define('WP_SITEURL','http://sypherav.com/client');
```
Other than that, I'm kinda stumped....

it redirects it to http://sypherav.com/client/login?redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2Fsypherav.com%2Fclient%2Fwp-admin%2F

dont know if that helps or not

Well, the URL is specified in the database, and if you reinstalled WP and imported the same database, you'll still have problems. I could look at it, if you're comfortable with giving me access with your WP and FTP info. Email me here.

FWIW for other readers of this thread, I had to manually delete the permalinks settings in wp_options in the database to get the site back up, as well as fix broken URLs for pages themselves.

I'm not getting this: Error establishing a database connection and can't login to admin at all. This is just getting worse. Can anyone help out? Any ideas?

AyohAy, I just responded to your email; that new error usually has to do with wp-config file problem or a hosting problem. The other errors - wrong URLs- need to be fixed in the database, i.e.: Changing_the_URL_directly_in_the_database
