Support » Fixing WordPress » permalinks; page not found after upgrade to 2.9.1

  • After upgrade from 2.9, permalink URLS do not work. default does. .htaccess file is identical to ones on un-upgraded installations on the same server.

    (I have found three other posts in different places on the forums here, with the same problem, but thought one with a very clear title might be helpful)

    FYI; the problem persists when using the default template.

    I posted about this, with a less then ideal subject, recently as well:

    Unfortunately, I can’t look into it too deeply where I am. I’ll watch your thread too and if there is a resolution, I’ll let you know.

    I’ve setup a rewrite log and don’t really see anything going on. The server config hasn’t changed since upgrade nor has the .htaccess file that’s sitting in the root directory.

    Not sure what to make of it. I really want it to work but it’s really slowing my development down. I’m going to give it another night and then probably try it on a production staging machine.

    Really no one else has had this problem after upgrading to 2.9?

    Alright, this is embarrassing but my build system reverted my Apache config, disabling mod_rewrite.

    For you googlers out there, make sure you have this line un-commented:

    LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so

    Don’t forget, double check your <Directory> directives for allowing .htaccess.

    Also, double check that your mod_rewrite is “sane” before doing anything. Try this method:

    Good Luck!
