• About permalinks/rewrite:
    CVS appears to be creating the ‘friendly URL’ for the actual post (when clicking on post title).
    When clicking on the category or archives links, however, I get a 404: The requested URL /wordpress/archives/category/general was not found on this server or 404:The requested URL /wordpress/archives/2003/12/ was not found on this server.
    One thing I did notice..when setting up the permalink structure in the options page, you have to preface it with /wordpress/, because the rewrite rules being generated without it are attempting to access directories outside my root WP dir. (i.e. trying to get to http://www.mysite.org/archives instead of mysite.org/wordpress/archives.
    Is this just a transitional thing, or am I doing something wrong?

  • You do have to do the links relative to the site root. If you get a 404 it’s probably because the mod_rewrite rules aren’t matching whatever you clicked. Did you update them?

    My site is at http://wifetalks.com/wp. I put in /archives/%year%/%monthnum%/%day%/%postname%/ as my permalink structure. Then I copied the output it gave and added it to my .htaccess file. Individual links are correct. Monthly and category archives try to go to http://wifetalks.com/archives instead of /wp/archives/… But If I change the structure to /wp/archives/… then my individual entries come out with /wp/wp/archives/…
    How do I correct this so that it works correctly?

    I set up an add-on domain and used it to set up WP and all permalinks work. For some reason they don’t want to work for a subdirectory, but when WP is installed to a root directory, all permalinks work fine.

    I get the same error. I ended up copying the .htaccess to root directory as a temporary fix.
