Permalinks Not Working

I started working for a company who goes through a CMS provider that doesn’t allow FTP. Everything has to be done through Subversion which I think is causing problems with my permalink settings.

If I set it to the default permalink structure everything works fine. If I change it to a custom structure that I use for all of my own blogs (/%category%/%postname%/), the links to posts and categories don’t go anywhere. The URLs change but they go to a blank page. This is what my .htaccess file looks like:

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

# END WordPress

The install that the CMS company did for me didn’t create a .htaccess file so I had to copy and paste that from another install I had.

Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this? I can provide more information if someone tells me what info they’d need 🙂 Thanks!
