In reply to: Pretty permalinks broken after blog moved to root directoryDoh – I just found an include file at the end of my server config file that sets the AllowOverride back to None for my root directory.

In reply to: Pretty permalinks broken after blog moved to root directorySo, I still haven’t figured out a solution yet (but did fix the blank screen that arose from last night’s try). I did try something tonight after reading that the directory defined in the server config file applies to the directory specified and all subdirectories.
I left my working site in the blog directory, but changed the server config file to:
<Directory /var/www/apa>
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
</Directory>instead of
<Directory /var/www/apa/blog>
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
</Directory>The site in the blog directory no longer works after making this change. If I add garbage in my htaccess file, the home page still works, which leads me to believe that the htaccess file is not being read. (When I know that it is being read and I add garbage, I can’t even pull up the home page.)
Does this provide any clues? If there’s anyone with any ideas, I’d sure love to hear them! Thanks so much!

In reply to: Pretty permalinks broken after blog moved to root directoryThanks for the suggestions, Shane. I’d already updated the wp_options table. I tried adding the line you suggested (ErrorDocument 404 /index.php?error=404) and then got a blank screen on my home page. I moved everything back to the /blog directory and am still getting a blank screen. (www.austinpetsalive.org/blog)
It’s late. Will try again tomorrow.
