WordPress 2.8.4 Permalinks Issue with 404 error (Not Found) (11 posts)

    I have just upgraded my wordpress site to ver 2.8.4 and now the permalinks point me to a 404 page. I used custom and used %postname%. My .htaccess contained the following

    # BEGIN WordPress
    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /wordpress/
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule . /wordpress/index.php [L]
    </IfModule>

    # END WordPress

    My "wordpress" directory as a 777 permission.

    mod_rewrite is installed and working. But why am I getting a 404 (Not Found) page?

    I have also tried a new installation of WP 2.8.4 and the same problem occurs. Does anybody have any idea?

    /%postname%/

    the way you showed it in your opening post wasn't correct

    Finally got it solved! The problem was on my part. I had to set apache to "AllowOverride All". Thanks for your help! :)

    I have very the same problem with permalinks on even clean wp284, wp282 as well. I found the same problem on one of my online blogs - I regenerated permalinks there and everything runs well. But on my company's localhost and intranet website permalinks are dead.

    The above solution (and the one described by jmaquitania) did not help.

    The problem is with posts, pages, categories and archives permalinks.
    When permalinks are turned off everything works well.

    Here is my info:

    mod_rewrite is present, .htaccess looks like this:

    # BEGIN WordPress
    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /wikiarr_prd/
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule . /wikiarr_prd/index.php [L]
    </IfModule>

    # END WordPress

    Permalinks structure:

    /%postname%_%post_id%.html

    categories prefix: kategorie

    tags prefix: klucze

    The server is Apache/2.2.8 (Win32) PHP/5.2.5

    Loaded modules:

    core mod_win32 mpm_winnt http_core mod_so mod_actions mod_alias mod_asis mod_auth_basic mod_authn_default mod_authn_file mod_authz_default mod_authz_groupfile mod_authz_host mod_authz_user mod_autoindex mod_cgi mod_dir mod_env mod_include mod_isapi mod_log_config mod_mime mod_negotiation mod_rewrite mod_setenvif mod_php5

    website URI looks like this (if it does matter):

    http://localhost:81/wikiarr_prd/

    Any help would be very appreciated.

    Thanks for answer. Anyway it did not help. All links are still dead.

    And I cannot realize what could determine such problem... I have a few websites build on WP and they were working just fine for years (with my permalinks as well) until now. I don't know what happened, this is not server issue (different platforms, even blank WP is not workin), no hack atempt (intranet website behind a firewall).

    Seems like WP did something by itself!

    I was planning to build my business on WP but now - I don't like it :(

    Some help would be very appreciated.

    Hi all,

    I upgraded to 2.8.4 yesterday, and I have a few issues:

    http://www.rockcanada.org

    1- when I click on the first article on the home page, in the main pane, it opens a new page, but the article in question is showing as the second one on the page. There is a podcast showing on top of it.

    2- I can't setup the number of posts on the home page to 5. No matter what I do, I've tried many solutions found online, I can't change that.

    Any helps would be awesome!

    I finally fixed the number of posts but reloading some files I had edited in my template, before the upgrade.

    Now working on the next issue: when I click on a post from the home page, the page opens but there is a podcast on top, before the article. No matter which post I select.

    Anyone ever had that happen?

    Thank you delirious crowd!
