 * Hi. Hope that this thread is the right one for the problem I have. I’ve got the
   wordpress folder in the apache htdocs and when I access wp it first goes to the
   main index of wp showing all files and folders. I select index.php and site is
   shown. however, in the admin manage module I’ve got 2 warnings eg:
    Warning: 
   file(C:\Server\Apache2\htdocs\wordpress/): failed to open stream: Permission 
   denied in C:\Server\Apache2\htdocs\wordpress\wp-admin\admin-functions.php on 
   line 938
 * Warning: implode(): Bad arguments. in C:\Server\Apache2\htdocs\wordpress\wp-admin\
   admin-functions.php on line 938
    what do I do to rectify this? I’m using the 
   wp classic theme thankyou for any pointers Bruce

 * OK now I’ve got the .htaccess file and can edit it in the files editor. what 
   do I edit? 2: when I click on the page, say-try again- it just goes to an error
   saying requested URL /wordpress/try-again/ was not found on this server. whats
   going wrong here then? please someone help. I’ve got the wp folder in htdocs 
   of apache and whenever I access wordpress/index.php thats ok but somehow I keep
   getting the main index of wordpress folders and files and have to access the 
   the relevant index.php from there.

 * Thanks Katie1 and vkaryl I’ve just got up and sitting here in dressing gown. 
   Ok vkaryl I’m on Apache 2 on windows fat32 so all I need to do is find my httd.
   config and activate the mod_rewrite module (which comes with Apache?) I don’t
   have .htaccess anywhere (Isearched the whole disc) So I create that as per instructions
   from the link given by Katie1 and put that in the root wp folder without having
   to chmod it? yes
    Thanks Bruce

 * HI, i;ve just installed WP on my local machine with Apache and MySql. It isnstalled
   OK but when I go to localhost/wordpress/index.php I get the Index of WordPress
   showing all the folders and files. When I go to index.php from this list I get
   DASHBOARD and then when i press visit site I get my posts. When I create a page
   and try to access it form the my site it just reverts to the wp index with the
   url localhost/wordpress/?pageid=3. Can you please tell me how to access my local
   site blog directly? and what problem there may be with the paging?
    Thanks for
   any guidance in this Bruce (boo hoo)
