Web Master

I am wondering now… should I have this in my .htaccess file ? it comes from the .htaccess just inside my domain.net/ and my blog is my_domain.net/myblog/ :

# -FrontPage-

IndexIgnore .htaccess */.??* *~ *# */HEADER* */README* */_vti*
Options +FollowSymlinks

<Limit GET POST>
order deny,allow
deny from all
allow from all
</Limit>
<Limit PUT DELETE>
order deny,allow
deny from all
</Limit>
AuthName hotgaylinks.net
AuthUserFile /home/hotgayli/public_html/_vti_pvt/service.pwd
AuthGroupFile /home/hotgayli/public_html/_vti_pvt/service.grp

is this bit out of place perhaps ?

best wishes,
clueless

Hi esmi, thank you SO MUCH for your help !
my blog is here : http://www.hotgaylinks.net/gay_porn_blog/
and yes, I have tried playing with the permissions and that changed nothing…. there seems to be alot of directory confusion, permalink and .htaccess confusion… It all seems to be the same problem, so here are the symptoms of what seems to be one and the same problem :
I am trying to use this custom structure :

/%year%/%monthnum%/%day%/%category%/%tags%/%postname%/

or

/index.php/%year%/%monthnum%/%day%/%category%/%tags%/%postname%/

they do not work, however for some reason, if I remove %tags%/, this DOES work :
/%year%/%monthnum%/%day%/%category%/%postname%/

HOWEVER, the permalink settings page tells me “You should update your .htaccess now.”

and to add this :

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

which is exactly what I am using… so there seems to be a problem with directory structures ?
BTW, I also have this in the .htaccess file :

# -FrontPage-

IndexIgnore .htaccess */.??* *~ *# */HEADER* */README* */_vti*
Options +FollowSymlinks

<Limit GET POST>
order deny,allow
deny from all
allow from all
</Limit>
<Limit PUT DELETE>
order deny,allow
deny from all
</Limit>

Again, Thank you for your help, I have been turning in circles for weeks !

Please Help !

now I’m not sure this is resolved… (I am no longer receiving e-mails warning me of bad links in the blog.. I just have a billion…

I am using AskApache Crazy Cache 2.0 and since I am still getting alot of useless links to 404 errors (related I believe to earlier trial posts, since deleted) …

I have tried to Delete the Entire Cache with Crazy Cache. I am getting errors that look like this :
rename(/home/…/public_html/my_blog/wp-content/cache/,/home/…/public_html/my_blog/wp-content/cache.old/) [function.rename]: Permission denied in /home/…/public_html/my_blog/wp-content/plugins/askapache-crazy-cache/askapache-crazy-cache.php on line 299 Crazy Cache Tools

when I try to delete Super-Cache I get this :
“/wp-content/cache/supercache.old/) [function.rename]: No such file or directory in … wp-content/plugins/askapache-crazy-cache/askapache-crazy-cache.php on line 320”

When I try to delete WP-Cache (always with Crazy Cache plugin)
I get this :
Warning: rename(/home/…/public_html/my_blog/wp-content/cache/meta/,/home/…/public_html/my_blog/wp-content/cache/meta.old/) [function.rename]: No such file or directory in /home/…/public_html/my_blog/wp-content/plugins/askapache-crazy-cache/askapache-crazy-cache.php on line 309 Crazy Cache Tools

is this all related to the same .htaccess file ? do i need to add something else ?

Thank you for your help.

Sam you are a God ! Thank you !
since following your advice I have not received a single error e-mail and it looks like I can perhaps actually get to work on my blog… thank you….

Actually, I have another question which may be a bit “off topic” but could you kindly tell me why my pages take so long to load ? is this normal ? anything I can do to speen things up ? I work on a pretty fast Mac with a prett fast internet connextion but my blog loads too slowly….

thank you again for your help !

and happy year of the tiger !

hello Gene and thank you so much for your response !
