   I Have two subversionproject which is linked to my domain which is accessible via 
mydomain.com/project1
 and mydomain.com/project2 (these are not "pshycial" directories, I cant see them in my ftp-client)

   Now that I have installed WordPress, I can not access these pages, I come to the WordPress 404 page.

   So, my question is... In WordPress can I specify the directories mydomain.com/project1 and mydomain.com/project2 so wordpress should leave these directories alone?

   I figure it´s in the .htaccess file i should write something but what?

   I got some code from a guy but tat didnt work
   

   # BEGIN WordPress
   <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
   RewriteEngine On
   RewriteBase /
   RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
   
   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/project1
   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/project2
   
   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
   RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
   </IfModule>
   # END WordPress

   Oh yeah,
   I've run into this a few times. You install WP, and suddenly some sites or pages don't work, and at first, whoa, I have no idea? :)

   I think the syntax may be pretty server-sensitive. This is like what I used to get it to work. Note the slight difference at the end:

   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/project1.*$
   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/project2.*$

   And you would leave the other lines intact. If that doesn't work, it's above my pay grade, and a .htaccess guru may be needed. :)

   Dave,
   Gaaaah it doesn't work!
   I change the .htaccess file and I change my permalinks settings to "Month and name"

   Heres what's inside the .htaccess

   # BEGIN WordPress
   <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
   RewriteEngine On
   RewriteBase /
   RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
   
   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/project1.*$
   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/project2.*$
   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/project3.*$
   
   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
   RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
   </IfModule>
   # END WordPress

   Then I go back and check the .htaccess file again
   And only this remains:

   # BEGIN WordPress
   
   # END WordPress

   Wierd as hell! what im a doing wrong?!

   I solved that problem:
   I read somewhere that i should put my own rewrite rules outside of the #BEGIN and #END lines.
   that worked!

   but my main problem still remain :(
