    Is your .htaccess file writable or did you amend the file yourself?

    When I upload the .htaccess, the admin panel says "Internal Server Error". What should be the CDMOD?

    And should I write anything in the .htaccess file?

    Delete the current .htaccess file. Re-create the file using a plain text editor. Do not add anything to the file. Upload it in ASCII mode if using FTP.

    Chmod the file to 644.

    I just uploaded .htaccess.txt to the server using http://ftp.. do not know to upload "Upload it in ASCII".

    I went and checked the chmod, and found that it is already 644

    But still the problem is same... the permalink says "By default WordPress uses web URLs which have question marks and lots of numbers in them, however WordPress offers you the ability to create a custom URL structure for your permalinks and archives. This can improve the aesthetics, usability, and forward-compatibility of your links. A number of tags are available, and here are some examples to get you started."

    No other option is seen...

    Have you tried:

    - deactivating all plugins to see if this resolves the problem? If this works, re-activate the plugins one by one until you find the problematic plugin(s).

    - switching to the default theme to rule out any theme-specific problems?

    - resetting the plugins folder by FTP or phpMyAdmin? Sometimes, an apparently inactive plugin can still cause problems.

    - increasing the available memory?

    Check with your hosts that mod_rewrite is enabled.
