 * [@ipstenu](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ipstenu/)… I agree, however if
   there was a server issue I would have seen it LONG ago and with the previous 
   version of WP… I’m thinking it’s an incompatibility with one of the plugins and
   the new version that is causing this. I have dozens of other users using the 
   older version of WP without issue, this was the first customer to upgrade.

 * Well, I am the hosting provider, so I know there aren’t any issue with the apache
   config… the problem only popped up when we upgraded to 3.04. I think it may be
   a plugin issue. I am going to try what others suggested, perhaps installing a
   fresh version and then seeing if everything works ok, then puttng the plugins
   in one at a time until it breaks.

 * [@emil](https://wordpress.org/support/users/emil/) Uzelac, yes, I removed the
   extra part of the .htaccess file;
 * RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L]
 * And have tried it with both rewrite rules for index (both singularly and together)
   and no difference. I found the rule above listed in the blog on how to setup 
   the permalinks and was originally thinking that was the problem, but it doesn’t
   seem to be.
 * wp-admin exists, and is not missing files.
 * Like I said… if I disable the .htaccess;
 * 1) I can get to wp-admin and everything there works fine
    2) I can get to ‘regular’
   post names, but not permalinks (obviously)
 * If I enable the .htaccess
 * 1) I can NOT get to wp-admin
    2) I can get to the permalinks
 * So either something is wrong with the base code, or there is a bug somewhere 
   in some part of the upgrade or code… I installed it with Installatron, and used
   Installatron to perform the upgrade. Maybe something they do broke it?
 * I would think I just need to add an exclusion for wp-admin (which is what I thought
   one of those is supposed to do, for directories), but I don’t know how to do 
   that.

 * Yes, I’ve tried exactly like that… same problem.
 * It’s like Apache (or wordpress) is ignoring
 * RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
 * I’ve restarted the server to make sure it’s not that. This only started popping
   up when I did the upgrade.
