   i have deleted the .htaccess file, i have confirmed that mod_rewrite is on my server and working. i have the following permalink structures in place:

   /archives/%year%/%monthnum%/%day%/%postname%/

   category base:

   /category

   i have clicked update the permalink structure several times but to no avail. this works fine if i put /index.php/archives/%year%/%monthnum%/%day%/%postname%/. i am running apache 2.0.54. any help would be appreciated.

   Who is your host ?
   Have they got WP users using similar permalinks ?

   this is hosted on a personal server in my house (dedicated IP, linux, etc.).

   Then it's probably not a WP question but a "how-do-I-set-up-my-server" type of issue.

   Check the article - wordpress tips on permalinks options. It specifically addresses your question (Update 3 section).

   Let me know if it helps.

   I didn't read this response until today so I am not sure if this would work for my config or not, but I did find the simple (geez, im a noob) answer:

   modify httpd.conf and make sure that AllowOverride is not set to none. I found that if you have a minimum of AllowOveride FileInfo it will work perfectly.

   Thanks for all of the help!
