[resolved] Permalink 404 error when changing the structure (6 posts)

    I have just installed wordpress into my site and it is working perfectly. However I just went to change my permalinks for the default structure 'http://mackenziefoy.com/?p=123' to the 'Month and Name Structure': /%year%/%monthnum%/%postname%/

    When I do this my posts disappear and I get a 404 error? How can I get it to work??

    Check with your hosts that mod_rewrite is running on your server.

    Is your .htaccess file writeable?

    I figured it out :)
    I was using the index as index4.php and for some reason when changed the permalinks it was not happy
    However when I changed the index4.php to index.php it worked fine :D
    Thanks so much for your help anyways!!!!
