 * Okay, I got WordPress to install and it seems to be working fine, except for 
   this odd problem: I can make either a post or a page, and it goes to the main
   page just fine. But if I click on the link either to the full post or to a page,
   I get a “not found” error. The front page of my blog is at
 * [http://www.michigancitizensforscience.org/wp/](http://www.michigancitizensforscience.org/wp/).
 * You can see the first post there. But if you click on the title to the post, 
   you see:
 * The requested URL /wp/2006/06/06/hello-world/ was not found on this server.
 * Any idea how to fix this problem? Any help would be appreciated.

 * Hi
 * Have you setup your permalinks properly ?

 * And make sure that WordPress can write to your .htaccess file or it will not 
   be able to set up the permalink redirection.
 * If you check .htaccess it should have a section written by wordpress now.
