    Thanks again Tobias!

    The host did some changes, but wasn’t able to tell me exactly which ones… I hope it is fixed, and assume that the info given here previously about Suhosin settings is enough for others to solve this in the future.

    Cheers!

    Hi Tobias,

    Thanks for the quick and helpful response!

    Yes, Suhosin is running on the server and that might just be the culprit. FYI (and for others) when I log into phpMyAdmin, I get a warning about Suhosin running on this server and that it might cause problems with phpMyAdmin. There is a link to their documentation which suggests to increase some default values in the settings. See: http://www.phpmyadmin.net/documentation/Documentation.html#faq1_38

    I will send a support request to the host for this website and ask them if they can check the logs (see if it’s a Suhosin or memory error) and adjust the settings accordingly.

    Cheers!

    Thanks Matthias for the suggestion above! That was the key I was looking for to finally solve this annoying and mysterious issue with Apache and AllowOverride.

    Actually, I changed the code you suggested to read AllowOverride All, instead of None, and that did the trick.

    So to summarize my experience (with WP 2.9.2 and Ubuntu server 2.6.31):

    edit /etc/apache2/sites-available/default

    find the <Directory> section for your wordpress website and edit as follows:

    <Directory /var/www/>
                    Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
                    AllowOverride All
                    Order allow,deny
                    allow from all
            </Directory>

    Then restart apache: sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart

    Voilà! Thanks again and hope this helps.
