   I have wordpress powered a blog. The homepage displays, but no other wordpress-generated page displays. This includes, blog posts and WP pages. I have had uninterrupted service with non-WP pages, FTP, and email (so it's not a hosting problem). I have also contacted my host several times, who offered no help what so ever.

   My site is located at tedgoas.com for those who have any suggestions. Clicking on any blog post or category on the left yeidls a 'file not found' error.' Though I've still be able to create and modify content via the QP dashboard, although I can't see it visually (even in the preview pane).

   I am running an old version of wordpress, but don't want to go through the trouble of upgrading if it won't solve the problem at hand. I've looked through the WP forums for a similar problem, but have not found any solutions. Does any one have any suggestions? Thanks so much!

   Don't you love hosts who don't help? I bet if you're late with a payment, you'll hear from them. :)

   Check to see if your .htaccess file has content in there. Also make sure that your server is running mod_rewrite. Link

   Haha, yes, I am not too happy with my host these days and am looking for a new one.

   I checked out my .htaccess file, which contains the following:

   RemoveHandler .html .htm
   AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .htm .html .asp

   However, when I added anything to this, or replaced with the info from the link above, it caused an internal server error. I tried pasting in a few variations of the following:

   <Directory http://www.tedgoas.com/&gt;
   Options +FollowSymLinks
   AllowOverride All

   # the rest of this directories configuration
   </Directory>

   Any idea what I am doing wrong?

   Has anyone else had this problem lately? I have seen several similar posts, but not exact match.

   I am having this problem as well... I just noticed it today but it's been happening for over a week at least because I haven't received any comments. I tried several different themes and all of them have the same problem.

   Same here. I Uploaded a new theme yesterday, that's when I noticed it. However, no themes work, even the ones that came with WP. deepfrydaniel, what version of WP are you running?

   I am thinking of upgrading, but am not sure that will solve the problem.

   I am running 2.1. Please post if upgrading to 2.1.2 fixes the problem.

   I just upgraded to the latest version of WP. Although everything seems to have come over fine, the errors have come as well. I still have the same exact problem running 2.1.2.

   No subpages appear (pages, blog posts, comments, etc.).

   That's too bad. I really hope someone can figure this out. Visitors not being able to comment is driving me crazy.

    By the way, in case anyone is trying to figure this out, when you view the source on the pages that are not appearing, the last thing to appear is the script below. In other words, the source stops just before the head tag is closed.

    <script type="text/javascript"><!--
    
    			function addEvent(elm, evType, fn, useCapture)
    			// addEvent and removeEvent
    			// cross-browser event handling for IE5+,  NS6 and Mozilla
    			// By Scott Andrew
    			{
    			  if (elm.addEventListener){
    				elm.addEventListener(evType, fn, useCapture);
    				return true;
    			  } else if (elm.attachEvent){
    				var r = elm.attachEvent("on"+evType, fn);
    				return r;
    			  } else {
    				alert("Handler could not be removed");
    			  }
    			}
    			function externalLinks() {
    			 if (!document.getElementsByTagName) return;
    			 var anchors = document.getElementsByTagName("a");
    			 for (var i=0; i<anchors.length; i++) {
    			   var anchor = anchors[i];
    			   if (anchor.getAttribute("href") && anchor.getAttribute("rel") == "external")
    					anchor.setAttribute("target","_blank");
    			 }
    			}
    
    			addEvent(window, "load", externalLinks);
    			//-->
    			</script>

    deepfrydaniel, I am not sure we were having the same problem. My subpages (the whole page) for posts and pages were not displaying, they were 404-ing.

    However, I have resolved that this had to do with permissions to my .htaccess file. I have changed them and that seems to have solved my problem.
