    They’re 404 on Mac browsers too. Try clearing the caches on your Mac browsers.

    Try re-saving your permalink structure at Settings/Permalinks in your admin panel. If WordPress cannot automatically edit the .htaccess file, it will provide manual instructions after saving.

    In my Mac it’s not erroring, but is on Windows.

    I tried to do the permalinks thing but it didn’t change anything. It didn’t show me any instructions either. I know it worked too because I was able to change it to /%category%/%postname%/ and then I could view it in Mac with the category in the url but Windows still doesn’t like it.

    It’s interesting to note also that if I try to view the url using the “ugly” url: http://www.cohnrestaurants.com/?p=537 it automatically redirects to the friendly url I originally gave, EVEN when I had permalinks set to use the “ugly” style.

    Man WP3 needed a lot more testing.

    Oh it’s also interesting to note that PAGES don’t have a problem. Only POSTS.

    http://www.cohnrestaurants.com/wine-and-dime-is-back/ is a 404 error for me under both Safari 5.0 and Camino 2.0.3 on Mac OS X 10.6.4.

    Have you tried clearing your browser cache?

    Try decativating all plugins. If that resolves the issue, reactivate each one individually until you find the cause.

    If that did not resolve the issue, try just the Default permalink structure.

    After several hundred volunteers used WP 3 on their personal sites for over half a year, I doubt your problem is being caused by WP 3.

    I tried disabling the plugins. That didn’t help either. Aren’t posts and pages basically the same thing? Just a couple field values different in the database right?

    Could it be that the upgrade didn’t update all the files?

    Thanks for your help.

    They are basically the same thing, but pages don’t have categories.

    Does it work when you use the Default permalink structure?

    No it doesn’t. I’ve tried every permalink structure option and none of them work. Is there a new .htaccess (or modifications to that file) that maybe I am missing?

    Not that I can think of. Re-generate your permalink structure again and make sure that your .htaccess file has this:

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

    It does not work maybe because you have the name of the page wrong???
    The correct link should be:
    http://www.cohnrestaurants.com/wine-dime-is-coming-back/
